Musings from an average American guy trying to make sense of a crazy world.
#Trump has finally gone full-blown #dementia with his latest letter regarding the peace prize and #Greenland. He's #batshitcrazy . Meanwhile, he is still breaking the law by not releasing the #EpsteinFiles and covering up. #pedophileprotector
And his #gestapo is still in #minneapolis .

We have a government using #whitesupremacist and #WhiteChristianNationalism rhetoric in their ads to recruit employees while we have an invading masked governmental militia in #minneapolis roaming our streets like they are #TrumpsGestapo .

#Trump is truly #delirious and #deranged. #tds
His obsession with #Greenland borders on psychosis. He truly is unfit and mentally diminished.

Will #Trump #taco when it comes to #IranProtests where protesters have already been killed. He gave them hope and they are counting on it. Will Trump get us into another war because of his ego and his diminishing mental cognition.

At first I was leaning towards the #minneapolisshooting as being #reasonableforce. But as time goes on and the more video I see, the more I am convinced that #excessiveforce was used and it was #murder. Especially the second and third firings; there is absolutely no justification for those.

He very last act is to turn the wheels away from the ICE officer.
That was my takeaway too. She's clearly turning the wheel to her right.
I've slowed the video down here.

#Trump really is #deranged. There is something really wrong with his brain. We attacked and kidnapped a foreign leader because he publicly danced and the #US thought he was mocking Trump. So this thin-skinned, cognitive impaired person decided to attack #Venezuela. Simply #mindblowing .

Now that #Trump has turned the #US into the #WorldsSheriff going after world leaders that are criminals, who is next? I'm waiting for him to arrest #Putin. How about #Netanyahu ? Oh wait, they're friends of Trump. What was I thinking!

We ALL need to support #Ukraine in their time of need. We can not allow #Russia and #Trump to win. It is #unamerican and goes against our #christian moral values.

A jury found Milwaukee County Judge #HannahDugan guilty of a felony. “She was a frustrated and angry judge who was fed up, who decided to corruptly take matters into her own hands,’’ Assistant US Attorney Kelly Brown Watzka told jurors.

#Trump has declared war on #Venezuela with his #blockade.
A blockade is an act of war. #Hesgeth seems to get off on these boat attacks and the murdering of these individuals. It is a sick perversion. We do not need to go to war.

Based on the facts recounted by the Senator, the two do sound “shipwrecked” for LOAC purposes.
But they were never lawful targets in the first place even if LOAC applied.
And LOAC doesn’t apply because there is no armed conflict.
Term for premeditated killing outside of armed conflict is murder.

WELKER: Lawmakers say the 2 men appeared to raise their arms potentially to surrender. Why did Admiral Bradley interpret these actions as anything other than them trying to survive?
TOM COTTON: They were sitting or standing on top of a capsized boat. They weren't floating helplessly in the water

Just goes to show how much of an #ignoramus #Trump and #Hesgeth is about the military. Every military person knows the #UCMJ and that it is your duty to follow ONLY #lawful orders and refuse to follow unlawful ones. If you follow an unlawful order, a defense of "I was following orders" doesn't fly.

Since #Trump knows he will lose the #EpsteinFiles vote big time with lots of #trumplicans voting against him, he is now reversing himself so he can later point and say they did what he wanted. But of course if he really did want the files released, he could do it without a vote.

Why is #Trump trying so hard to run away from the #EpsteinFiles and prevent them from being released. Is it because he is up to his neck in this pedophile ring? While he may have not participated, time will tell, he certainly knew and turned a blind eye or lived vicariously through Epstein.

Reminder that Starbucks’ CEO made 6,666x more than the company's median employee in 2024.
This was the widest CEO-to-Worker pay gap in the entire S&P 500.
And we're supposed to believe Starbucks can't afford to bargain a fair contract with its unionized workers?

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.
Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

Do Senate Democrats really believe that Americans will hurt any less when the government is reopened and Trump and his sycophants can hack away at whatever programs they dislike?

i think this is key. taking the deal would amount to taking the blame. it would turn a clear political victory into an unambiguous defeat.
If the Dems blink after all of this, for a deal that all but ensures no ACA subsidies in 2026 anyway, then what was the purpose of letting the shutdown go for 40 days in the first place?

The longer the #trumpshutdown goes on and the longer #speakerjohnson keeps the house closed, the more I start believing that the shutdown isn't about the healthcare but about closing the government in order to delay the releasing of the #EpsteinFiles.

Where is our #MIATrump on getting our #governmentshutdown opened? Why isn't he rounding up his herd of #trumplicans and having them save #healthcare and reopen the government. Why is #speakerjohnson so inept as to keep the House closed and his trumplicans away from Democrats.

#speakerjohnson needs to stop running away from doing his job and open the #house back up. There is work to be done like releasing the #EpsteinFiles . #Trumplicans need to stop the #shutdown. #Trump needs to stop the #shutdown. They are destroying our country bit by bit with their #project2025.
