The National Guard needs to have a babysitter, so they don't get hurt. This is not what National Guard Members signed up for, yet here we are today. They are being forced to act as police officers. The starting pay for DC cops is 80K, Guard Members start pay: 24K or LESS!

How low we have sunk as a country. The US Department of Defense is now run by a rabid war criminal.
Ordering the execution of helpless survivors of an attack is ALWAYS a war crime, whether they civilian or military.
Pure, mindless, barbarism.

To be clear, an American president cannot close the airspace over another country.
Unless… he plans to enforce it by shooting down planes… an unprovoked act of war… and (another) war crime, given that Congress hasn’t declared war.
He’s a rogue dictator now. There’s no other way to put it.

The reason the top 10% of income earners pay more than half of all tax revenue is NOT because they are taxed more than ever.
Their tax rate has been cut FIVE times in the last 25 years.

If it's true, if the US is willing to allow borders to be redrawn by force and let aggressors be rewarded, then the gates of hell are about to be opened.
This may prove to be the single most destabilizing and conflict-spawning decision of the 21st century.

This is crazy, the Washington DC police are now essentially assigned to protect the National Guard, thought they were sent to protect the residents, which is actually the police's job, now they have to coordinate with the Guard, maybe if they would just let the police do their job, how about that?

Creating a military conflict with Venezuela gives this administration a legal "hook" to invoke the Alien Enemies Act. In other words, the foreign war is being manufactured in order to facilitate court deference for its domestic mass deportation policy. It's a Stephen Miller Special.

Demolishing the East Wing of the White House before finalizing plans for what will be built above its ruins is a near-perfect metaphor for Trump's approach to economic policy. The only difference is the wrecking crew doesn’t claim the rubble is evidence of unprecedented growth.

According to DHS and Reuters, he applied for asylum in December 2024 and it was approved on April 23, 2025 — after Donald Trump was back in the White House.
A Trump official told Reuters he had no known criminal history in the U.S. before the shooting.
