Apparently no one told Sec. Noem that immigrants with green cards can serve in the military and be deported afterwards if they are convicted of a removable offense.
Every admin has deported veterans (drug crimes the most common reason), although the Biden admin made that harder.

Oligarchy (noun):
A government of and by a few at the top, who exercise power for their own benefit. Their power and wealth increase as they make laws that favor themselves, manipulate financial markets, and create monopolies that put more wealth into their pockets.

Finland ended homelessness with a housing first strategy that gave people apartments before they secured employment
Now they’re proposing a 4 day work week and 6 hour work days

Meanwhile in the US, people work two jobs and can’t afford food or healthcare.

Great financial crisis? You mean when the housing market collapsed, banks went under, our GDP sank, the working class lost trillions in net worth and unemployment soared?
Seems like a repeat of the last time we tried to bully the world with isolationist tariffs.
Not good.

Even the legal justification for drone strikes on senior members of al Qaeda and associated forces (ostensibly covered under the 2001 AUMF) states that strikes are justified only “when capture is infeasible”
This is contemptible. Not only do we now have confirmation Hegseth has been lying from the jump, but it seems neither he nor his team understand that killing everyone on a target list *becomes* an illegal No Quarter Order if targets try to surrender or are neutralized.
