Kegseth is joking about it but FWIW the last time a military attacked a non-combatant boat/ship and then conducted a double tap on the survivors to make sure they were killed, the officers and soldiers who did it were hanged
The drunken rapist war criminal sure is a psycho.

insanity. I shouldn't have to tell anyone how extremely vital their roles are. Good nursing can make all the difference in the world

The sickest, most complicated patients go to the ICU. I can tell you they don't go there for the MDs, they go there for the nursing. www.newsweek.com/nursing-not-...
Nursing is no longer counted as a 'professional degree' by Trump admin
The Department of Education has excluded nursing as a "professional degree" program as it implements various changes to student loans.

some of them on the right see what's happening. The modern republican party is fueled by racism, and there's too much momentum to stop it. They are going deeper into the fringe, and it will only get uglier bc of how many in the trump admin embrace groypers and Christian Nationalists
MAGA's most important think tank has been roiled by the Tucker Carlson-Nick Fuentes interview, and the situation is only getting worse.

if he ends up at 50% or higher, in a 3-way race, that would be impressive imo. The ppl saying it's impressive how Cuomo is performing are underestimating how much NYC has always loved their establishment/name brand recognition politics. It's always been part of NYC culture

he suffered his first heart attack at age 37. Suffered several more heart attacks thereafter over the years and developed end stage heart failure. Got an LVAD in 2010. Heart transplant a few yrs later. Miracles of modern medicine gifted him 20+ yrs of additional life, at least

millions of his supporters who are poor are about to lose their health insurance but trump makes sure a known racist and Holocaust denier (who could easily afford this drug out of pocket fyi) goes right to the front of the line. One POS looking out for another
Healthcare but only for my friends

imagine having supporters who are so racist and bigoted, that you feel the need to constantly justify your marriage to them. Vance knows that these ppl will kill his career if a brown person is by his side. So he'll keep doing what he's always done... play his cards to get ahead
JD Vance drew a broad backlash this week after he said that he hoped that his wife, Usha Vance, who is of Indian heritage and was raised in a Hindu family, would eventually convert to his own Catholic faith.
JD Vance Says He Hopes Usha Vance Embraces Christianity, Setting Off Backlash
Critics included some Indian Americans, who said the remarks did not respect the religious decisions of Usha Vance, who grew up in a Hindu household.

to give some perspective on the scope of GOP incompetence... they've been bitching about Obamacare since day 1. It started 15 yrs ago. Over 15 yrs of bitching, the best idea for healthcare they've come up w is repealing Obamacare and replacing it... w nothing.

They literally have no plan
Trump: "Obamacare has turned out to be a disaster as I've been saying for years. It can be fixed or redone. People don't get good healthcare and their premiums go up every single year. So we should change it. Obamacare is bad healthcare at a very high price."

1 day left before badness starts, nationwide. And the senate is going to be home the whole weekend lol. Again, the money has already been appropriated by congress and is sitting there ready to be used. But the trump admin doesn’t think ppl not having food constitutes an emergency
Rep. Rosa DeLauro: "On the food stamp issue, the money is there! Let them not get away with saying they can't do it. Their political will isn't there to feed the people who rely on the SNAP program which is the most effective anti-hunger program in the USA."

Maduro needs to take that asylum offer from Colombia imo. If he doesn't think trump will have him assassinated, he's wrong. Venezuela is a narco-state. If he's killed, literally no one would care outside of Russia, North Korea, and Bolivia. And trump is unpredictable enough to do it
Maybe they should watch Russell Crowe’s new Nuremberg movie when it comes out next week. Just some helpful advice.

Binance founder was convicted of money laundering for Al Qaeda, ISIS, and Hamas, and he facilitated sales thru child porn websites. Trump just pardoned him in exchange for 2 billion dollars.

Meanwhile the country doesn't have $ for benefits like healthcare and food assistance
Donald Trump has pardoned Binance founder Changpeng Zhao. Binance has been a major supporter of Trump's crypto projects, and Trump has already made millions after Binance accepted a $2 billion investment from an Emirati fund denominated in the Trump family's USD1 stablecoin.

Obviously if President Pedo had requested congressional approval to do this, it would’ve been rubber stamped. But the fact he didn’t even bother to ask for permission and feels so perfectly comfortable destroying a historical landmark, tells you he truly sees himself as king
The White House is asking people not to share pictures of the East Wing because it’s even worse today.

the modern Republican party is a straight white Christian nationalist org, driven by racism and white supremacy. These "I love Hitler" incel losers used to be kept on the margins, relegated to 4-chan message boards. Trump has thrust them into power and made their hate and toxicity mainstream
EXCLUSIVE: Embattled Trump nominee Paul Ingrassia told Republicans that the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday should be “tossed into the seventh circle of hell” and that he has “a Nazi streak,” according to a group chat viewed by POLITICO.
Trump nominee says he has a ‘Nazi streak,’ bashes MLK Jr. Day, according to texts

I cannot imagine reasons why there'd ever be a need to know a teenage boy's sperm count, let alone having enough samples to have a database for these numbers and tracking them. These ppl are batshit and weird AF
RFK Jr: "Today the average teenager in this country has 50% of the sperm count, 50% of the testosterone of a 65 year old man. Our girls are hitting puberty 6 years early ... our parents aren't having children."

the modern Republican party is fueled by white supremacy and racism. They act all offended when they get called out but it’s been beyond obvious for a while
POLITICO: “.. They referred to Black people as monkeys and ‘the watermelon people’ and mused about putting their political opponents in gas chambers. They talked about raping their enemies .. and lauded Republicans who they believed support slavery.

Not enough attention is being paid to how the media keeps feeding trump ideas by constantly asking him about the hypothetical authoritarian moves he might make, in their insatiable pursuit of more content and attention
Q: Have you given any more thought to possibly suspending habeas corpus?

TRUMP: Suspending who?

Q: Habeas corpus

TRUMP: I don't know. I'd rather leave that to Kristi.

this practice is associated w horrible outcomes, proven by study after study. Outcomes so notoriously bad at this point, it can't be defended. This would be like SCOTUS saying doctors should be free to recommend alcohol or narcotics to treat anxiety/depression, w/o any consequences

They spend every day obsessing about all the different ways they can invade America
“Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth considered sending an elite U.S. Army strike force to Portland, Ore., to quell protests that President Donald Trump has characterized as ‘lawless mayhem,’ according to images of messages provided to the Minnesota Star Tribune.”
Trump officials discussed sending elite Army division to Portland, text messages show

It doesn't get more authoritarian than this. DHS/ICE have the contracts w tech companies to crawl social media and ID ppl who are critical of the gov't. Basically spying on US citizens.

ICE has moved from being about immigration enforcement to now enforcing against any dissent.
wired.com WIRED @wired.com · Oct 3
United States immigration authorities are moving to dramatically expand their social media surveillance, with plans to hire nearly 30 contractors to sift through posts, photos, and messages to target people for deportation.

he's literally bragging about the fact they can hurt every American, but it's worth it bc he gets to hurt the ones he doesn't like

That's all the GOP has become about. Inflicting suffering on their perceived enemies. The cruelty is the point, and they celebrate and take pleasure in it
👀 Just Now -- President Trump in the Oval Office said a government shutdown gives his administration the power to cut benefit programs, which include Social Security and Medicare.

trump's former white house attorney. Notice how there's no one from his prior administration who has anything good to say about him. It's all bad... corrupt, incompetent, etc. And after this administration is over, you will see the same. This is highly abnormal for a president
Ty Cobb: "The simple theme is rewriting history. Trump wants to rewrite history so the next generation may not know that he incited a violent insurrection... America needs to learn from the mistakes that we've had. And one of the biggest mistakes that America ever had was reelecting President Trump"
