Either way, it's hilarious that Trump assumes the military has any desire, inclination, or legal obligation to be wielded against his personal or political enemies.

Of all the problems I'm sure Michigan faces, which one of them would be fixed by a porn ban? Just a lot of hullaballoo to looks like they're being useful with out actually improving the lives of their citizens...

I suppose with anonymity being demolished by the government, maybe one fringe benefit is that folks can't pull this shit with out consequence.

Hard to feel bad for a guy whose entire living was essentially this, fomenting hate, legitimizing targeting groups and people, then absolving themselves of any responsibility. One would hope Kirk getting shot might give these people pause.

I sincerely think any who would have since been purged, either voluntarily ending their careers or primaries out.
There simply is no reward for doing the right thing and a slew of punishments, ranging from political to personal to lethal.

If Dems manage to retake power, cleaning house shouldn't be difficult. If they were installed by Trump, they should be removed. Not like any of them have shown any unique competence that would warrant them sticking around.

They won't, not unless they know theyer protected from MAGA and they aren't. Those who may have had the courage to tell them to piss off have been forced out by now.

Like, what's happening here? Do these assholes have SO much money that there simply is no thrill to getting more? No utility to it? Cause all they're doing with moves like this is burning money to what, get off dictating what other folks can enjoy?

What's wild to me is that a lot of Latino voters shifted to Trump between 2020 to 2024 and he made it no secret what he thought of them and what he intended to do. I can't help but wonder why? Mind you ya majority still voted Harris, but still what were those who made the shift thinking?

The Post Office, NASA, NOAA, the Military, just a fraction of institutions that should never be privatized for any reason and anyone arguing otherwise is immediately sus.

Well, clearly, this one did. Be weird if others didn't. Wouldn't expect Fox, but the others? This should be like cat nip for them.

Trump has nothing but contempt for the those of us who know a thing or two about service, that's no big secret. In a choice between him and our duty to the people why would we choose him?

Are some MAGA? Sure. But I and a lot of my peers weren't and most didn't care so long as they could do their job and nobody fucked with their pay. We're not machines one simply programs into blind obedience.

How do you tell me you've never met someone whose worn the uniform without telling me you've never met someone whose worn the uniform? In my experience military largely reflects the people it serves.

Writing, art, music, these are the methods human beings have found connection to each other through time and space since time immemorable. If someone could not be bothered to write something, why on Earth should anyone waste time reading it?

It's one thing to engage in 'immigration enforcement', its one thing to patrol around for the regimes attempt at intimidation, but it is another entirely to kick off our own Tiananmen Square.

Eh, depends really. I find it hard to imagine the full might of the US military willing to open fire on Maidan style uprising. If the choice was between opening fire on protestors or turning on the regime, I have strong reason to believe the Military would sooner turn on them rather than us.

When the military has to break with the civilian government, we've crossed into something never before seen in US history.
