I strongly favor deporting Elon. The guy has proven to be a parasitic queen of federal largess whose damage to the nation via DOGE has yet to be fully realized.

Elon violated his Visa while working in the US. There seems to be cause for deportation.

Mark Kelly: "We have a president who doesn't understand the Constitution, who installed an unqualified secretary of defense. I cannot think of a secretary of defense in the history of our country that is less qualified than Pete Hegseth. He should've been fired after Signal-gate."

Capitulation will never save you: “When finally you surrender to us, it must be of your own free will. We do not destroy the heretic because he resists us: so long as he resists us we never destroy him. We convert him, we capture his inner mind, we reshape him.” (1984)
The White House’s new anti-media website includes denunciations of:

-ABC, which bribed the president
-CBS, which bribed the president and moved away from fact-based journalism trying to appeal to him and his fans
-WaPo, which spiked a Harris endorsement and tilts coverage in Trump’s favor

Fools.

"If the U.S. military operation is not an armed conflict of any kind, these orders to kill helpless civilians clinging to the wreckage of a vessel our military destroyed would subject everyone from SECDEF down to the individual who pulled the trigger to prosecution under U.S. law for murder."
Here are US military lawyers stating clearly that Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth's "kill everybody" orders are either (1) war crimes or (2) murder.

Either way, expect prosecutions in the future.

Russian drone violations of Moldova’s airspace are unacceptable and put civilian air traffic at risk.

The EU is investing 20 million EUR this year in Moldova’s air-defences to help strengthen the country’s security.

Moldova’s skies cannot become a casualty of Russia’s war.

This is also true about RFK Junior
Remember, too, that Hegseth would have been rejected if a single additional Republican senator — or, JD Vance — had joined Sen. Collins, McConnell, and Murkowski in voting no with the Democrats. See: www.senate.gov/legislative/...

As I saw the right wing media machine go i to action yesterday, facts actually matter.

That said, the question nobody is asking but should, how did the shooter get his guns? What can we do as a country to make gun violence less likely?

The legal, media, and academic institutions capitulating to an authoritarian ordering payments for favorable treatment are damning themselves to irrelevance. They are destroying their institutions. They will be — and should be — shunned for failing in their most basic purposes for existing.

Protesters in NYC literally blocked an ICE convoy from leaving their staging garage. People are learning from other cities. They’re finding ICE staging areas. They’re patrolling neighborhoods. They’re building rapid response networks. ICE is on the defense now.

The Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) is meeting on December 4th and 5th.

I believe this is where they will show their alleged data indicating that children died after the COVID19 vaccine.

TBF, based on their past presentations, I am dubious of the quality and rigor.

Creating a military conflict with Venezuela gives this administration a legal "hook" to invoke the Alien Enemies Act. In other words, the foreign war is being manufactured in order to facilitate court deference for its domestic mass deportation policy. It's a Stephen Miller Special.
