They want to wipe out almost a third of the country. It’s got nothing to do with illegal immigration.
It’s white nationalism pure and simple. They’re fascists, and there’s no reason to doubt it.

As of 12/24/25, USPS changed policy on when they postmark mail. Mail dropped off is no longer guaranteed a same-day postmark. Tax returns & other time-sensitive items are now stamped when they reach a regional processing center, which may be days later. Plan deadlines accordingly to avoid penalties.

The TikTok ban? Bad.
The SCOTUS ruling upholding the TikTok ban? Also bad.
Trump choosing not to enforce the ban? More bad.
The Trump-backed mostly-US consortium taking over US Tiktok? You guessed it...bad.

They have been quiet about that Afghani that supposedly shot the national guardsmen. Any other FBI leaders that would be normal, but for this one it means they don't like, for PR, what they are finding. Guarantee he was not "radicalized", as they stated, or was "radicalized" against their tyranny.

Yes, he's throwing the operational commander under the bus. But that whole chain of command has some explaining to do
Hegseth: I watch that first strike live. At the Department of War, we got a lot of things to do so I did not stick around. Couple of hours later, I learned that commander had made -- which he had the complete authority to do, he made the correct decision to sink the boat and eliminated the threat.

What is cool is that it is not an either/or. We can both hold Hegseth accountable and the Adm. as well. Someone like the Adm. is exactly who Mark Kelly and others were talking to. Someone in power that is expected to know better.
Hegseth is very transparently blaming a Navy admiral for his own decision. Let this be a lesson for every other military officer: The Trump administration will issue unlawful orders, then blame you for following them.
