Insanity: The deportation flights Trump used military jets for—that Mexico refused to accept—cost the U.S. up to $852,000 per flight to attempt to deport just 80 migrants at a time.
To compare, flights directly chartered by Immigration and Customs Enforcement cost just $8,577.

What is gaslighting? Gaslighting is when an Episcopalian bishop pleads with the President for mercy for Gay, Lesbian, transgender and immigrant groups who are now feeling endangered and fearful—and Trump calls her a hater.

something that's remarkable about the Hegseth hearing is that we've reached the point that the entire idea of competence is 'woke'
of course these people want to excuse every horrible personal behavior as 'woke' but the idea that you might need to be good at the logistics of your job? an outrage

Going from Lloyd Austin (4-star general, Army Dep. Chief of Staff, top commander in Iraq, head of CENTCOM) to Pete Hegseth (was in National Guard years ago, pushed out of veterans group for misconduct, championed convicted war criminals on TV) really highlights what the right means by "DEI hire."
