Stop all arms and weapons shipments to Israel. Stop the genocide in Gaza and attacks on Lebanon. Is this what Israel calls a ceasefire?

Calling them the “Seditious Six” & branding their statements “despicable” before review is textbook definition of prejudgment. No panel, judge, or reviewing authority can claim neutrality once the SECDEF declares the accused guilty. This looks like the procedures used in dictatorships, not the US.

Lying under oath? Seriously? The case against Comey is as hypocritical as it is weak and incompetent. From Trump on down, this is an administration people who got their jobs by misleading and outright lying to Congress. My latest at @thebulwark.com

Trump insisted Comey be prosecuted for supposedly lying to Congress—but his own administration is full of officials who lied to Congress.

really a sign of how fragmented and basically lost the admin has become in the last six weeks or so. Imagine having secretary focus on this dress up for your 90 minute flight thing.

The "Department of Government Efficiency" has disbanded eight months early.

DOGE sowed chaos throughout the government and disrupted services relied upon by millions, while finding hardly any savings.

Here's what you should know about damage that DOGE leaves behind.

Trump, Musk, and the GOP killed hundreds of thousands of kids around the world.

That should be a major story and talking point.

They cut USAID to "save" from "waste," but gave 40 billion to Argentina and threw a Great Gatsby party and let Kash Patel burn our money for his honeypot GF.

As @queenofthesouth.bsky.social & others have pointed out, their answer really is Sen. Mark Kelly et al. were trying to "intimidate" the active service members by reminding them of their oath & to follow the law. That is what they are going with on this one?

If the orders are legal, why intimidate?
Leavitt: "The White House is supportive of the Dept of War's investigation into Sen. Mark Kelly, and I think what Sen. Mark Kelly was actually trying to do is intimidate the 1.3 million active service members."

I swore an oath to the Constitution in 1986. I've upheld it through 25 years of service and every day since I retired.

If Trump's trying to intimidate me, it won’t work. I’ve given too much to our country to be silenced by bullies who care more about power than the Constitution.

The "peace president."
Really looks like the United States is about to launch a regime change war against Venezuela with:

-No casus belli
-No authorization from Congress
-No allies or international support
-No plan for a post-Maduro Venezuela
-No preparation for any sort of stabilization or containment of the fallout

Key context; this was not filed in the case in front of Judge Xinis in Maryland, this was filed in his criminal case in Tennessee, where they're saying that the new revelations that the admin lied about Costa Rica are yet another sign of a vindictive prosecution.
BREAKING:

Sorry to interrupt the football, but Kilmar Abrego Garcia has filed additional information claiming the feds misrepresented Costa Rica's position on accepting Abrego Garcia.
