"Hegseth’s rhetoric is so alarming that it sometimes eclipses how he also can come across like an eight-year-old boy inventing dialogue for the villain in his G.I. Joe game."

The 53 Missing Pages Detailing Trump's Alleged BRUTAL Abuse of A Minor Are Surfacing And It's Really Bad. They said nothing was deleted or didn't exist. Now they exist, and Trump's DOJ says they're non-credible, without explaining why.

Trump says Cuba will be attacked next

The Iran conflagration is costing taxpayers one billion dollars a day.

Is this helping the American people?

Current U.S. wars (if we take out a country’s leader we are clearly at war regardless of how we want to market the terminology):
Iran
Venezuela

Other military action (claiming terrorism or drugs):
Caribbean (we’ve been bombing boats)
Syria
Iraq
Somalia
Yemen

Now we are saying Cuba is next. WTF!

Justice Department targets Cuban officials, aims for indictments The Justice Department has formed a working group to examine bringing federal charges against officials or entities within Cuba’s government.

β€œThe effort to bring charges against Cuban officials coincides with President Donald Trump saying that his administration is eyeing Cuba as the next country whose government might be overthrown…”

Trump said the US is doing very well militarily, better than anyone could have dreamed. He said he rebuilt the military in his first term and is using it in his second. The so-called β€œPeace President” has also suggested the US could force regime change in Cuba.

There Are Still Heroes Among Us Fighting ICE. Fighting the Epstein class. Fighting Putin.

β€œWe have an administration that is hostile to the rule of law and to the fight for freedom. We cannot wish away that reality. But we can also understand the reality of the admirable actions of Minnesotans and Epstein survivors and Ukrainian freedom fighters.”

Once again, when it should be about someone else, it’s all about him. No decency, no empathyβ€”just a spotlight on Pedo Trump. Even in mourning, self comes first.
