NEW: Unbelievable. A seemingly endless line of tanks & other military vehicles arrive in DC ahead of next week's parade.
They departed Texas 5 days ago.
What a colossal waste of time, money & military resources. All for a President who has shown zero respect for service personnel.

A podcast called “Raging Moderates” had Kellyanne Conway on and she immediately went into “Trump’s documents were nothing but Biden had docs where his druggie son could get them!” and nobody said anything.
If that’s “moderate” burn it all down.

Since I’m already stepping in Bluesky land mines tonight, let me fling this one out there.
I would trade “skeet” for @thevivllainous.bsky.social
I understand this statement is likely to cause great controversy.

Gavin Newsom tells NBC's @jacobsoboroff.bsky.social he's planning "LA 2.0" using upcoming megaevents — World Cup, Super Bowl, Olympics — as a deadline for the "pride and spirit that comes from not just hosting" but also "the opportunity to rebuild at the same time"
