It's nice to see some people wake from their zombified state to realize the insurgency has taken over with their help. Derp.

This reminds me of his pitch for Trump’s miracle cure “signature” vitamin supplements in 2009, which were available for a bargain price if you signed up for a membership with the Trump Network and submitted a urine test because they customized them to your needs. bsky.app/profile/atru...
Trump: "I want the money to go into an account for people where they buy their own health insurance. It's so good. The insurance will be better. It'll cost less. Everybody is gonna be happy. They're gonna feel like entrepreneurs. They're actually able to go out & negotiate their own insurance"

The U.S. military is being used inside the United States. There's a lot we don't know about how, why, and under what authorities.

Today, Lawfare is launching a new project–which includes a tracker and a map–to follow where and how the military is being domestically deployed.

The source familiar with the internal schisms inside the SDFL office said that one of the prosecutors resigned because they “felt like there was something they could not take part in because it would violate their ethical responsibilities.”

BBC resignations are a symbol of mounting pressure on public broadcasters in the Trump era

In the current political environment, public broadcasters are high-priority targets for right-wing media and politicians.

This is the strategy they continue to deploy to prop up the fascist clowns who will ultimately render them irrelevant.

A facade.
Make a decision that is popular to mask the decision that is both unpopular and destructive to further erode American democracy.

On Senate Democrats:

“Those who, while they disapprove of the character and measures of a government, yield to it their allegiance and support, are undoubtedly its most conscientious supporters, and so frequently the most serious obstacles to reform.”

Once again, I will never forgive those who allowed these people to step their dirty, corrupt feet in the halls of power after they tried to take it by force and failed.

This is un-American mob rule. Democracy died on January 7, 2021 when the tyrant wasn't immediately jailed pending trial.

Is this confirmed now? Or are they making this assumption based on other's assumptions?

I have yet to see Adm. Holsey give a public statement.

"Ousted for offering candid military assessments. Hegseth soured on Adm. Holsey after he raised questions about deadly strikes on boats in the Caribbean."
