Anyone thinking what I’m thinking?
The Trump administration quickly ordered 500 more National Guard members to Washington following the shooting. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said President Donald Trump asked him to send the extra soldiers. https://to.pbs.org/3M1cKXU
Two National Guard members shot just blocks from the White House
FBI Director Kash Patel and Washington Mayor Muriel Bowser said the Guard members were hospitalized in critical condition. Bowser said they were victims of a ”targeted shooting.”

What a little dipshit
Keystone Kash blows it again: The perpetrator that he’s going to use all available resources to track down in the DC guardsman shooting is already in the hospital. Idiot.

A judge had already ruled that the National Guard in DC was *illegal*. They were still in DC because the T**** administration was fighting the judge's ruling. Now the drunk in charge of Defense thinks the shooting is a great excuse to deploy MORE illegal troops. www.politico.com/news/2025/11...
Judge rules Trump’s DC National Guard deployment was illegal
The judge postponed the impact of her decision until Dec. 11 to give the Trump administration time to appeal her decision.

Couple of guardsmen from West Virginia definitely not choosing to be in DC especially right before Thanksgiving.
The death of two national guardsmen is a horrific tragedy.

It is also an orchestrated tragedy by a president hellbent on creating a tinder box environment across the country.

Another baby has just died of whooping cough in Kentucky, thanks to RFK Jr. and his merry band of anti-vaxxers.

My feeling toward RFK Jr. and the Republican Senators who confirmed him is utter contempt.

One of the most odious episodes of the first Trump administration was family separation, ripping kids from migrant parents (and in some cases losing them). Now family separation is back, @propublica reports: www.propublica.org/article/ice-...

Under a zero tolerance policy, the first Trump administration separated immigrant children from their families at the U.S.-Mexico border. New data suggests separations are happening all over the count...

Good, I’m not the only one.
If they’re estranged, did the Trump Administration do Leavitt’s brother a favor and get rid of her? An appalling suggestion, but these people are appalling.

this administration is more twitter pilled than any previous iteration and the only reason it isn’t called out more regularly is because our top political reporters are just as mentally broken

I’m still in awe at how they can go from eight years of “Sleepy Joe” and not understand how freaking gaslit they were.
