AOC: "It is unconscionable that what we are debating right now is legislation that will give 8 senators over $1 million a piece & we're robbing people of their food assistance & healthcare to pay for it. How can we vote to enrich ourselves by stealing from the American people?"

This isn’t security — it’s suppression. The silence surrounding these actions is as dangerous as the actions themselves. Authoritarianism doesn’t arrive overnight; it creeps in, justified by fear, cloaked in patriotism, and ignored until it’s too late.
The fact we have secret police whisking people off the streets doesn’t get enough attention. It ain’t normal and we’re further down the road to authoritarianism than you think.

Repetition, deflection, and rehearsed lies—classic propaganda. The Secretary of Defense isn’t informing us, he’s shielding Trump, who can’t act alone and hides behind others to mask his failures. It’s incompetence wrapped in spin.
Trump tags in Hegseth so he can rail against the media and accuse them of disrespecting the troops and trying to hurt Trump

Every time Trump fails, he starts a fire somewhere else—he needs the headlines. Iran isn’t about national security, it’s about his ego & desperation. He’s flailing under the weight of indictments, policy failures, and economic lies. This isn’t leadership—it’s a dangerous con. Time to shut it down.
Despite an apparent ceasefire and claims of a "spectacular military success," the question remains: Why did Trump really bomb Iran?
Here's my view.

Trump should be impeached for repeatedly undermining democracy, defying the Constitution, and encouraging lawlessness. His actions show a blatant disregard for accountability, threatening the very foundation of American government.

How does a sitting president keep spreading blatant lies with no real accountability? No fact-checks, no pushback—just misinformation shaping public opinion. It’s a dangerous precedent when truth no longer matters in leadership.
