During the civil war, Lincoln delivered the Gettysburg Address. During the depression & World War 2, Roosevelt gave us fireside chats. After 9/11, George Bush gave a hopeful & encouraging speech to the nation. Compare that to what we get from Trump. The man has many followers, but he is no leader.

I’m watching the press conference with the Epstein accusers. Fascinating that MTG is standing with them.

Does anyone feel comfortable with the idea of Trump and Netanyahu being the leaders during what could be a world wide conflict? I can’t think of too many people ( at least in the free world) whose judgement I trust less.

We need every elected official, of either party, whether or not they are currently in office, to speak out. You all know what is right. You can’t leave the citizenry to battle this alone. We need all of us, but especially you!!!

Our entire federal government is like a giant clown car. It would be funny if it wasn’t so dangerous and humiliating. I pray we, as a country, can recover.

The ICE agents dressed in full tactical gear like they are headed into a desert war zone are completely ridiculous. They look like little boys playing soldier and thinking they are tough. I wonder if any of the pardoned insurrectionists are now working for ICE.

I was disappointed when the weather didn’t cooperate for my visit to Sequoia, but the rain and fog gave my pics an amazing effect.

If a president starts a major war and more than half the populace either doesn’t support it, or actively supports the other side, what happens? Do they start arresting everyone for treason? But then who does the actual fighting? Just contemplating.

So very disappointed in senate Democratic leadership. This is not the time to roll over and submit. Show some gumption Dems!!!

I think Trump and Musk are out to prove the hypothesis that you don’t have to be smart to be rich.

Ok, I won’t mock or shame them, but I am definitely not going to feel sorry for them either. I’m still mad at their ignorance ( especially the smart ones!)

Is there a way for Americans to donate privately to Ukraine’s defense? Anyone know?

“Christians” who still support Trump need to go back and read the Old Testament story of the Golden Calf. ( spoiler- God was not pleased)

Where have the congressional Democrats gone? With a few notable exceptions, they seem to be silent. Do we have any leadership left in DC?

Philly Trump Fan Shocked to Be Fired by ‘Wrecking Ball’ DOGE - The Daily Beast

I’m so sick of Trump supporters being stunned that they are adversely affected. Seriously, what is wrong with them? They thought he cared?

Republicans worry Trump’s firings of federal workers will hit red states hard - OregonLive.com

Articles like this make me gag. It’s not like the Republicans are doing anything but bowing down. They can worry and fret , but they are still a bunch of cowards who have failed to do a thing to stop it.

Government Workers Cannot Be Fired for Their Political Views - The Atlantic

We know that, at minimum, 2 Supreme Court justices are completely in the pocket of Donald Trump. I think we are going to find out which of the others still has some dignity, integrity and respect for the law still intact.
