I’m starting to get the sense that it was a bad idea to put a deeply insecure, sexual assaulting Fox News host with a drinking problem and a crusader tattoo who said he was into war crimes in charge of the military.

The first time terrorists used planes to attack Americans wasn’t on 9/11 or at Pearl Harbor. It was the Tulsa Race Massacre of 1921 when white supremacists flew a dozen planes to drop turpentine or nitroglycerin bombs on Black Americans.
Viola Fletcher was there.

The Department of Government Efficiency claimed to have slashed tens of billions of dollars in expenditures, but it was impossible for outside financial experts to verify that because the unit did not provide detailed public accounting of its work.

DOGE did not fail in any way to accomplish its goals.
Its goals were never efficiency or saving money.
Its goals were to destroy as much of government as possible forever, and to steal data for the Space Nazi.
DOGE is fading away like bank robbery gangs fade away after the robberies are done.

AOC has a better shot at 2028 than Newsom does, that prick already threw in his lot with the rightwing podcasters and the transphobes.
Reactionary centrists can whine about "purity tests," but fact is Dem contenders now must have spine & principles. Candidates without that will struggle in 2028.

Given the flimsy legal justifications for the murderous attacks on boats across the Caribbean in the name of fighting narcoterrorism, this essentially provides the same legal basis to launch drone strikes against Leipzig-Connewitz.
The Trump administration moved to designate antifa groups abroad as foreign terrorists — setting up the prosecution of their U.S. allies.

First I’m sorry that you had such tragic experiences. That’s horrific.
1) if a person on the news, such as a female journalist talks about a topic, does she deserve threats in a joking way?
2) would you believe those acceptable to receive on your account?
