Kash Patel has been a danger to this country for years. John Bolton compared him to a Soviet secret police leader. Bill Barr said he’d let Trump appoint Kash to the # 2 spot in the FBI “over my dead body” saying the idea showed a “shocking detachment from reality.” Patel should never head the FBI.

So a reminder:

It’s not ‘liberals’ saying Hegseth abuses women. It’s his mom.

It’s not ‘liberals’ comparing Trump to Hitler. It’s his vice-president.

It’s not ‘liberals’ calling Musk a liar and a racist. It’s his own child.

For the record.

Time to give @bluesky props. As I write this, there are 560 quotes and replies to the post below.

Of those only 4 call me names and give me shit. About 15 do the same towards Trump.

The remaining 541 are on topic and add value.

It’s a battle of political leverage. Who can use tariffs, retaliatory tariffs or sanctions to create more political pain for the other leader. Forcing them to capitulate or face undesired consequences.

How crazy would it be if China, Mexico and/or Canada initiated tariffs before Trump took office
From your standpoint as a businessman and manufacturer, is there any sense behind this? Especially now that other countries are threatening tariffs of their own in retaliation. But that doesn't make sense cause it would mean raising their own taxes.

BREAKING: President Biden has helped secure the release of three wrongfully detained Americans from China.

They will be home for Thanksgiving for the first time in years. Thank you, Mr. President.

If you needed even MORE of a reason to switch to Bluesky, China is "troubled" by the fact that they've invested so much time on Twitter buying ads, bots, and influencers... only to see the people they're seeking to manipulate (us) flee the site.

I ask the people in power, with large platforms and public profiles: For the last few years, you have been saying what everyday Americans need to do. With Trump coming:

Isn't it your time to stand up?
Isn't it your time to show some heroism?
Isn't it your time to do what you expected from others?

I think the wrong questions r being asked about the proposed tariffs. The real question Is how little will he accept from Mexico , Canada and China in order to be able to say the threat of tariffs worked ?

To ensure he can keep taking bribes and not reveal any of his donors, foreign or domestic, Trump has refused to sign a very basic ethics document that would allow his transition to proceed as normal.

I think most Americans don't realize how much this endangers all of us, and media is not saying it.

Denver gave people experiencing homelessness $1k/month. A year later, nearly half had housing.

They also had fewer ER visits, nights spent in a hospital, and jail stays.

The report estimates that this reduction in public service use SAVED the city $589k.

When I first joined twitter in 2015, it was to share leadership principles, provide national security input based on experiences, and try to be an optimistic contributor.

I strayed from that, but on this new platform I will try to regain that approach.

Thanks for all who have joined me.

This Pam Bondi video @lolgop.bsky.social dug up is a bit awkward given Chuck Grassley's disclosure that Trump's DOJ SHUT DOWN a corruption investigation into Mykola Zlochevsky in December 2019.

If corruption concerns were legitimate, why did Barr shut that down? 🤔
