Does anyone else think that Pete Hegseth has a larger gripe against the ability to think critically or rigorous academic training than Scott Walker? I did not think it was actually possible.

It's doing pretty significant numbers for what it is, so while I understand sharing it won't make a difference for those knee-deep in the cult of personality, I'd say it has a better-than-average chance of resonating.

This Repub CR, that they claim will keep the government open, is a perfect example of why you must read bills.
Inside the text, you’ll find cuts everywhere, and so much money taken from vets you wouldn’t believe it. These guys are frauds.
Nice try! Hard NO! Throw it in the 🗑️

A moment of clarity: #DonaldTrump does not know how to be a president. He knows how to be a (below average) CEO. He can only do ANYTHING when there is no opposition-even from his own. GOP Congress has abdicated 100%. This only works if resistance is allowed at a minor level.

So, since Musk now has access to your Social Security accounts, I might suggest downloading any reports on earnings and what you are owed so that, ya know, there is a record.

The "he's not gonna listen to her" reactions are missing many points. Lots of other people are also hearing it. Lots of people can see him hearing it, then weigh what she's said with what he'll do. Lots of people can see her refusal to surrender these ancient teachings to the latest face of empire

#DonaldTrump may be asking the US government taking partial control of #TikTok.
For those who were concerned about your data being scraped, an official US Govt platform will absolutely do that, plus be able to charge taxes to all content creators or businesses that use it.
