Trump names Erika Kirk to key advisory board of US Air Force Academy Widow of murdered rightwing activist Charlie Kirk replaces husband on 16-member panel of military training facility

WTF.

She would have no business being on that board if she was more liberal. She knows nothing about military but has money and the marketing of TPUSA behind her. That's it.

Horrible decision.

Americans aren't facing a democratic collapse. We’re living in its aftermath | Eric Reinhart The US was an oligarchy well before Trump’s first term. Recognizing this reality is essential to building a true democracy

Absolutely! A good read.

β€˜A very dangerous person’: alarm as Pete Hegseth revels in carnage of Iran war Critics say brash, bombastic Fox News host out of his depth to guide US military through murky new Middle East conflict

β€œThis was never meant to be a fair fight, and it is not a fair fight. We are punching them while they’re down, which is exactly how it should be.”

Wow, there's really no honor at all in this regime.

Middle East crisis live: Israel warns it will pursue Iran’s next supreme leader; black smoke smothers Tehran after missiles strike oil depots Israeli military said it would also target every person who seeks to appoint a successor for killed supreme leader Ali Khamenei

There's nothing quite like hitting an oil refinery to hurt lots of people and burn a ton of oil all at once to hurt the environment even more.

Our species doesn't deserve to live.

People like Trump and Miller think we are the top of the food chain but we'll all die just as easily as we crap in the fishtank we live in.

No amount of "technology" can put ecosystems that took hundreds of thousands of years to be built back into shape.

Trump skirts Congress over Iran war as Republicans simply step aside Senate blocks war powers measure and House follows suit – now president can bomb Iran free from congressional interference

The immediate laws that come from Democracy after this GOP MAGA takeover threat is gone have to make sure laws are CRYSTAL clear and this type of power amassing can't be done again through lying and grooming that MAGA has done to it's followers.

If, in any way, they expect us to believe the FBI is credible now, it was also credible then (and moreso by large amount).

The U.S. military leader zealot is starting the Crusades again - to create pain, suffering, and fear - in order to draw attention away from the criminal and least Christian-acting in society.

Subpoenas will get him there *maybe* but he won't ever tell the truth. He simply needs to be removed from office and jailed.

If the government actually cared about the laws they themselves enact, this would happen.

A lone battle: Why is Pedro SΓ‘nchez the only European leader to take on Trump? As the Spanish PM decries the war in Iran, other politicians are unable – or unwilling – to speak against the US president

We need more leaders in this world like SΓ‘nchez. Why is it always called "left wing" to care more about people and building more "hospitals than missiles"?

Of course they won't learn, but perhaps some of the fear they so enjoy instilling in others will be forced upon them.

Kristy Noem also should not be let off the hook and forgotten. She needs to be criminally charged and put in jail.

Yes, I see that. My post above was actually before the news came out that he had removed her from that position.

Frankly she should be in jail. Not in any sort of "security" role.

Trump fires homeland security secretary Kristi Noem as Democrats welcome her exit – US politics live President picks β€˜Maga warrior’ Markwayne Mullin as nominee to replace Noem as Democrats hail decision after months of controversy

Good riddance! Now she needs to be brought up on charges - lying under oath, killing, etc.

I'm not expecting Markwayne Mullin to be better though as he's also a Trump sycophant. He'll have to be watched more closely I think as he'll likely be more underhanded.

πŸ˜‚ I will love to watch the fallout from Trump throwing one of his commanders under the bus. After this, all the others know it can happen to them too - because he's senile and doesn't care about anyone but himself.

If "churches" can dispense politics and support for politicians like Trump, then protest is absolutely allowed.

Senate votes down resolution to prevent Trump from continuing war with Iran War powers vote broke along party lines with almost all Democrats in support and most Republicans opposed

And Congress gives away it's power again. Why not just get rid of Congress? That would save us a bunch of money as they continue to get paid for being ineffective and giving away power to the President anyway.

They just want king Trump. It shows.
