When the Trump administration, much like Bondi taking on the role of a consigliare instead of an impartial DOJ, seeks refuge at a military installation, there’s a striking resemblance to a military base and her potential future at a federal prison. #Bondi
ask: how does this toxic American sentiment continue to thrive? What fuels this ongoing wellspring of bigotry?

This enduring theme of xenophobia in America traces its roots back to the post-slavery era, through the struggles of African Americans, Asian rail workers, and immigrants from Ireland, Italy, Japan, and Germany. It’s a narrative as familiar and consistent as the rising sun. Yet, one must

This just has to be repeated again and again until it becomes part of the everyday Trumpian dialogue, like ‘bigly.’ "Why is it only you saying this?" That’s the most crucial question a journalist could ever pose.#journalism #news #presscorps
Adore the normal facial appearance. That's a plus.
Jesus Christ what a thick bastard. Absolutely breaks my heart knowing his followers would not question the obvious.
Predictable economic and strategic miscalculation. There is no need for a Navy when laden with a multitude of mines. Hegeseth, Miller, Gabbard, and Trump have shown a troubling lack of competence and responsibility in the art of military planning. #Trump #Hegseth
Completely infuriating fools, those lot. The kind who'd squabble with you over a warning about an oncoming vehicle, only to get taken out right in the middle of their ridiculous point.
This evening, I conversed with a fellow officer from my service days, residing in a quaint southern community, his rich accent one I’d willingly exchange my own for. The highlight of our laughter tonight was, “Trump has to be the dumbest son-of-a-bitch alive.” #Trump
Americans seem doomed to repeat by each generation a vile racism so celebrated by Trump and his followers: first the slave, then the Chinese, Irish, Italian, German, Japanese, and now Muslims, a faith rather than a race, yet regarded as such by the MAGA extremists. Capitalism without conscience.
I find myself at a loss as to which is the greater folly: the demented imbecile himself, or the unwavering supporters from the southern states who cling to the delusion that he is beyond reproach in his words and actions.
The lamentable, reckless, and imprudent course charted by Hegseth and Trump stands in stark contrast to the wisdom I acquired at OTS: "prior, proper planning prevents piss-poor performance." #Trump #Hegseth
Chuck Schumer walking down a stair case, looking directly into the camera—"Zionism is back."
Because what you're doing is called criminal.
A half-arsed plan; little more than go get 'em. A world-wide financial disaster is the result of manipulation by Netanyahu and Trump's lack of good sense to say no. So did Russia give free reign in exchange for removal of oil sanctions? #impeach
Trump and the Republicans will leave that mess for someone else to clean up as they nearly always do. #Trump #Republicans
FOX "news" the purveyor of falsehoods, outrage, and Repubkican fascist propadanda needs to be pulled out by its roots. #Fox #propaganda
Russia has unleashed a reckless figure to wreak havoc upon America and the West, achieving a level of destabilization that surpasses all expectations. And now, they have the audacity to proclaim that the end is near. #Trump #Russia
Fascists wouldn't stand a chance against a formidable battalion of well-armed Democrats. They'd be outmatched, surely.
Some vignettes don't require further explanation. Notice how he is left to embarrass himself. #Trump
We are marching through the world," the Nazis proclaimed with a sense of unshakeable arrogance—until they faced the undeniable, final no.
"Winning" and "surrendered" doesn’t require a draft. Yet, for those who wrap themselves in the flag, the next eleven weeks of rigorous boot camp will not be a cosplay experience, followed by long years ahead. I’d relish watching their first show of MAGA insolence towards a Training Officer. #Draft
Chip Roy, the mind behind the SAVE Act, has faced his moment of reckoning in Texas. If Trump can't undermine women voters there, what makes his criminal enterprise think it'll find a warm welcome in more progressive areas? #ChipRoy #Impeach_Trump
The most significant impact Pete Hegseth had on this country was cementing that connection between the Department of War and the whole concept of a douchebag. It’s almost like a scarlet letter—no future administration is gonna want that kind of energy in their ranks. #Hegseth #Iran #Trump
Pronounced Mar-Kwayne. The second most ignorant man in America Not even good enough to be number one.
Trump has completely lost the plot. Just a madman who can't tell the difference between genuine kindness, loyalty that's freely given, love without intimidation, following the law, understanding consent/age of consent, hygiene, or even basic health choices. #Trump
Chip Roy, the author and sponsor deeply rooted in a troubling ideology, wasn’t saved, was he? #ChipRoy #Texas #Trump
So what does it take to scuttle the luminaries?
