Hunh.

Remember all those people who completely lost their minds about the four Americans who died in Benghazi?

I wonder what they'll do when they hear about THIS!

Yeah, that's sarcasm.
I know they're all cult members and completely full of shit.

Yup, they're serious. They're going to make the global economy scream. And Trump cannot threaten his way out of it.

It’s nearly impossible to lose Grenell, but Ogles pulled it off.

History keeps repeating the same warning: concentrated wealth and captured governments treat the planet as expendable inventory. When profit outranks people and ecosystems, collapse becomes policy. Public resistance is not radical; it is the requirement for survival.

It took Trump 10 days to create an energy crisis reminiscent of the 1970s, replace Ayatollah Khamenei with Ayatollah Khamenei, and weaken our alliances worldwide. He put American servicemembers in harm’s way, resulting in seven deaths. None of this made you safer or better off.

Ogles is a prime example of bigotry that exposes itself as stupid and incompetent.

Andy Ogles seems unable to comprehend the basic values the United States was founded on – like religious freedom under the First Amendment.
 
Muslim Americans are our neighbors, colleagues, and friends. They belong here, but this vile Islamophobia doesn’t belong in Congress.

The election of Trump—both of them—will reduce the scope of every American’s future, as well as reducing the scope of who can be and will want to be an American

The Threat of Retaliation in America The Trump regime's actions are making America less safe. They are exploiting fear to seize more power. We should not be intimidated.

“In this moment, it’s important to soberly recognize what we are up against. Trump is not interested in our safety. On the contrary, he is more than willing to exploit a terrorist attack at home to further consolidate his power.”

History is often written by power, and even death notices reveal the bias. For generations, obituary pages centered powerful men while many groundbreaking women were minimized or ignored. Revisiting those records is not nostalgia; it is correcting the historical ledger.

When violence is sold as virtue, nations start confusing power with purpose. History shows that wars launched in the name of righteousness often corrode the very freedoms they claim to defend. A democracy that normalizes endless war risks hollowing out its own ideals.

This is a reasonable explanation as to why Trump has undermined federal domestic counter-terrorism programs, and why it is suppressing terrorism alerts.

Behind Trump’s war fever lies profound weakness - Salon.com US wages fast-escalating war, with no clear motivation and no realistic plan. It isn’t fooling anyone

Best deconstruction of this illimitable folly I have seen.
