I joined the military veterans site, Together We Served thinking it would be a great place to maybe connect with some old friends and make some new. After about 6 months searching numerous forums, the site is horribly overwhelmingly populated by MAGA.

Other vets out there that joined this ๐Ÿ˜ณ๐Ÿคฌ๐Ÿคฎsite?

Or safety equipment removed unless a higher standard has been established and/or better equipment is available to replace existing equipment.

OSHA shouldโ€™ve been apprised of this before it was compromised by MAGA, the droning proponents to remove all regulations.

Removal of parachutes for any crew aboard military aircraft makes about as much sense as removing the mandatory requirement providing Personal Floatation Devices ( PFD, Life Vest, etc) on the water.

All my years in the army and union ironwork, Iโ€™ve NEVER heard of any safety standards lowered, 1

No matter what form of evolution the republicans become, they always think theyโ€™re the smartest in the room every time. Theyโ€™re arrogant ignorant fools because GW Bush got briefed about OBL, pretty much ignored the warnings and didnโ€™t take his intentions seriously.

You should if youโ€™re ableโ€ฆand then book a cruise to Alaska!

I often thought catching some of the NE would be cool. Doubt Iโ€™ll make it though.

Exactly! Course, little was I aware, at sometime a bunch of them migrated pretty darn close in Hayden Lake, Idaho. Just changed their name/affiliation to White Supremacy groups. Thankfully, I grew up on the west side of WA.

I was there for basic training 1972-73 at Ft McClellan near a little town called Anniston. The confederacy celebrations were alive and well there. It was a bit of culture shock being from the Pacific NW!

If that bigot makes governor and I was a gambler, Iโ€™d bet one of his first mandates would be reviving the old Montgomery Christmas tradition of the Blue vs Gray football game, parade and all the rest of their confederate reenactment fantasies.

Too many people, including some news media, let the truth be trampled upon without thought for what is happening to us and our nation.

I almost started a list of all the โ€œunflatteringโ€ adjectives that fit his personality and description. I know mentally I came up with well over a hundred but bottom line, I know that column outnumbers anything positive because I canโ€™t come up with one.

I respect men that show their compassion and empathy shedding honest tears from grief and loss or pride and joy.

Butโ€ฆthese whiny snowflakes, pity-poohing over themselves and their piles of ๐Ÿ’ฉ just piss me off! Theyโ€™re such schniveling f***ing wimpy wussies!

NEW: DOJ sued Washington State for access to the state's unreacted voter data. However, it failed to file proof that it served the complaint. So now the federal judge has asked DOJ to show cause as to why this case should not be dismissed. www.democracydocket.com/cases/washin...

He probably had Stephen Miller whisper in Trampyโ€™s ear that he knew how and remove all those pesky little flow restrictors in the shower and vanity fixtures to restore the water pressure.

Something to keep an eye on if Trampy decides to release some to bring prices down. The regressive-thuglicans gave Biden hell for it.

@markey.senate.gov I wish the republicans such as Senator Graham paid as much attention to our โ€œhome grownโ€ white US citizen criminals like this punk I posted below, and quit hyping up and blaming the few immigrants.

Just gonna state the obvious in case anyone doesnโ€™t see the domino effect with the rising diesel & gas prices. Not only is it more expensive again to commute anywhere, but those groceries donโ€™t magically appear in the stores without all of the distribution centers receiving and trucking there.

We're at war with Iran because the President of the United States likes to fuck kids

That's super clear, right?

He fucks kids

Children

Trump fucks Children

That needs to be very clear
