I posted the following on Facebook a few moments ago in response to someone trying to insult me by calling me a servant. I feel it's pertinent enough to repost here.
This story gives me hope for humanity... Such good humans to help this kind old Veteran to retire - all because of a shopper reaching out to an Aussie TikTok-er ...

Freaking wow! Talk about "on the nose"... Especially with this morning's news from Reuters that Trump is going to revive the Monroe doctrine and potentially abandon Europe for his "Vladdy-Daddy" Putin to conquer.

The Trump Admin put out a "strategy memo" that calls for reviving the Monroe Doctrine and re-examining the US relationship with Europe ...

I fear Trump is about to abandon Europe & NATO to Putin, and engage in empire building in the Indo-Pacific.

To recap the latest on the double tap strike:

* The people were waving for help

* Boat was going to Suriname
www.cnn.com/2025/12/05/p...
* There was no radio on the boat
www.theguardian.com/us-news/live...

The administration's stories do not pass the sniff test
Survivors of Sept. 2 boat strike were waving before second attack, sources say
Two people who survived an early September U.S. attack on an alleged drug boat were waving overhead before they were killed in a now-controversial second strike, according to two sources.

This doesn't sound particularly constitutional:
- that Trump can appoint DOJ to decide who is/isn't covered by the Jan6 pardon... My understanding of the Constitution is that the pardon power rests solely with the president & is not transferrable

This will probably be a controversial take ...

I have a feeling the good Admiral "fell on a grenade" for the SecDef today when he asserted Hegseth didn't give a "kill them all" order ... Probably in the hopes Trump will pardon him for taking the fall on war crime charges.

As expected, SCOTUS hands Trump & the GOP another win by allowing the Trump-Ordered Texas Gerrymandered maps to stand for the 2026 Midterms.
