So a guy that lied to avoid serving is going after a guy that lied about where he served? I'll take the Marine Sgt that lied over the draft dodger that is still lying any day.

One of my biggest concerns is that it's possible that Trump is just testing the waters with these troop deployments.

What happens if he decides to post troops in all the major Democratic leading places at mid-terms to suppress the vote? All he would have to do is falsely claim threats of violence.

So many people asking the same question. When do we say enough already and then how do we take our country out of the hands of a corrupt regime and restore true democracy?

I'm sorry but saying that ICE agents must be masked because of the dangerous job they do is bullshit.
There is nothing dangerous about a group of armed agents swarming over a Home Depot or Immigration courtroom to detain unarmed people looking for a better life.
It's fear and shame, nothing more..

One man, with demonstrated extremely poor judgement, should not be able to plot the future of the United States, influenced by the urging of a foreign nation, without consulting Congress.

Controlling a puppet should not grant the ability to control an entire nation. That is why we have oversight.

I have served, in uniform, under the administrations of three presidents. My oath always was and always will be to the Constitution of the United States. My contractual service may have ended under George H. W. Bush, but my moral oath to protect and defend the Constitution is for life.

I am one of those veterans that believes that the oath I took is eternal. There are many that believe as I do. We are sworn to defend our Constitution from all enemies, foreign and domestic, until the day we die but nobody told us what we do if the potential enemies are the ones running the show.

There are times when I wish we didn't have so many protections against just slapping some of these people. Nothing lethal, just a "Hey, stop being an asshole!" slap. Maybe if they got slapped enough times they would just go away? I can dream, can't I?

We have a fool in charge who is supported by idiots and the people that can fix it have no spine. The answer to all of this is removal from power. Reclaim the United States for the people!

If you find that I don't enter into chats then please, forgive me, but I find them very awkward and will often just ignore the chat. I know that is rude and I apologize. If you follow me and I follow you back, it's only because I have seen something interesting in you and am watching you. Patience

I'm thinking that if we put a Tesla in every classroom, our kids will get collateral government protection from shooters!

As a 14+ year Army veteran I never thought that I would feel shame when it comes to my country. Sadly, that is where I find myself as the U.S. shifts towards a pro-Russia stance. Unlike President Trump, I refuse to kiss Putin's ass and I wish my president had a fraction of Zelensky's courage.

I'll be completely honest here. I decided to try the bluesky experience in hopes that it would be more like an uncensored, non-heavy handed equivalent to FB.
Instead I've found dozens of young women "looking for a relationship". Some may be sincere but this is certainly not what I had hoped for. :(

It is failed logic to assume that Gaetz is some kind of sacrificial lamb and everyone else should get a free pass.
Bad choices are bad choices, and it is up to the Senate to reject EVERY nominee that presents a danger to the safety, security and future welfare of the United States of America.

I find that I'm more concerned with the shooters they enable to be in the classrooms than the undocumented people crossing the border to do the manual labor that others avoid and/or find better lives.

My first post on BlueSky. I must say that I am extremely concerned, not only about what Trump is proposing to do, but about how easy is seems it was for MAGA to exploit our system of government and take it over. We truly need to look at all of those loopholes and close them.
