Stephen Miller says Afghan immigrant Rahmanullah Lakanwal was incapable of assimilating to American culture. But a factcheck shows that Lakanwal used a gun to assault and kill multiple innocent people. Four Pinocchios.

I can’t afford a car so I had to walk to the store, and when I got there, there were no toys on the shelves. But at least no one said “Happy Holidays” to me.

BREAKING:

Republican-led House and Senate committees say they will amplify their scrutiny of the Pentagon after a WaPo report revealing that Pete Hegseth gave a spoken order to kill all crew members aboard a vessel suspected of smuggling drugs in the Caribbean several weeks ago.

“Ah, just one more thing, sir. You’re blowing up those boats, saying they’re filled with drugs headed for the US. But then you go and pardon the guy who brought in 400 tons of cocaine. That’s billions of doses. Help me understand that.”

The house and senate have both expressed interest in investigating the strike on survivors of the first boat strike.

Both Hegseth and adm Bradley will need to answer some questions.

This is why a reminder to not follow illegal orders is important

While Trump is ordering the FBI to investigate U.S. Senators over a video reminding military members they don’t have to follow illegal orders, it might be worth noting that “I was only following orders” was rejected as a defense at the Nuremberg Trials.

There must be zero tolerance for violence — of any kind — against the brave men and women in uniform who selflessly serve our communities and our country. The shooting of National Guard members in Washington, D.C. is horrific and unacceptable.

Two National Guardsmen were shot in Washington, D.C.

Democrats immediately express their sympathy for the victims and their families.

Republicans immediately spread conspiracy theories to blame Democrats for the shooting.

Anyone still believe both parties are the same?

Hegseth is a cold-blooded murderer. There's no way to dress it up. He's a criminal. And his was precisely the kind of illegal order that those Dem members of Congress urged the military not to follow. www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...
Hegseth order on first Caribbean boat strike, officials say: Kill them all
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth issued a verbal order to kill all crew members in the Sept. 2 strike on a suspected drug boat. Navy SEALs fired a second missile.

So, Hegseth illegally ordered everyone killed in the first alleged drug boat strike on Sept. 2, prompting a second hit to finish off survivors in the water. — This is the real reason why Trump & Hegseth absolutely freaked out about the video against illegal orders.

So Pete Hegseth and Donald Trump really just want Mark Kelly to run for POTUS and humiliate JD Vance, right?

Bc that's the only explanation that actually makes sense.

I spoke with Betty. She was very emotional and asked me to tell you that “she would love to give each one of you a great big hug.” We’re so close to changing her life. If you can give $5 or $10, it would be awesome. If not, I completely understand, but a repost is free. Thanks very much.
I’ve only posted one GFM, and it’s my intention never to post another. But this one is close to my heart. I know the family personally and have visited with them countless times. If you can help out, it would be great. If not, I completely understand - but a retweet is free.

Senator Kelly didn’t mince words with Dana Bash: if a second strike hit a burning boat with survivors he thinks the second US military strike on a suspected Venezuelan drug vessel constitutes a war crime! A former Navy captain calling it out matters.
