Can you imagine any company in the U.S. retaining Pete Hegseth for any role in its organization after his performance as U. S. Defense Secretary. He wouldn't even be hired as a county dogcatcher.

Well, it's not just undocumented immigrants now. ICE (aka the Gestapo) is breaking into American citizens' homes, terrorizing them at gunpoint, ransacking their houses and taking their money and electronics. Oklahoma City is the latest iteration of this. Congress has got to put a stop to this BS.

So today, the Supreme Court told the President of the United States that he can't "accidentally" send people to an overseas prison and just leave them there.
I want you to think about what has to happen for us to get to this point.

Just heard that Trump has directed the Secretary of Education to ban "The Emperor's New Clothes" in school libraries nationwide.

I went to a TX county tax office today to renew my vehicle registration. The center was fully staffed and you are assigned a no. at sign-in and called in order based on your arrival time. After waiting for an hour, I still had 33 people ahead of me. All I could think of was how it will be at SSA!

Surprising to hear that a government formed exclusively of a country’s most stupid people isn’t really working out.

I keep thinking about what if the opposite of Trump/Musk were happening now. By that I mean, imagine what would be happening in the country right now if Kamala had won and she put George Soros in a DOGE role. January 6 would have paled in comparison! But we're all just woke snowflakes...

So let me get this straight. Trump is illegally purging dangerous undocumented immigrants to El Salvadorian prisons for pay while concurrently releasing dangerous sex criminals and domestic terrorists from U. S. prisons onto our streets. Is it supposed to be a trade-off?

We had Russia on the ropes.
They were crippled by sanctions.
They had made minimal headway into Ukraine.
Putin had to survive a military uprising within his own ranks.
He was down to pleading for conscripts from North Korea.
Then he played his ace in the hole.
Donald Motherfucking Trump.
