trump fucked over the contractors who demolished the East Wing of the White House and his precious ballroom may never be built because he can’t agree with architects about what is feasible to build. So, 123 years of history turned to rubble for NOTHING. 🤬

A Florida-based company is charging military veterans as much as $20,000 for help with disability claims, even though the VA has said that may be illegal and the service should be free. But so far nobody's stopping the company and others like it. n.pr/4awb0jo

I know who's *not* going to jail for war crimes. This guy!

They fired him on Aug 22nd.

Boat strikes started September 1st.

I wonder why they fired him? And fired all the Judge Advocates General?
Admiral Milton Sands III is a highly decorated Navy SEAL and was commander of the Naval Special Warfare Command. Basically, he was the final boss of the Navy SEALS.

He just got fired.

Listen to the respect and humility with which he and his soldiers talk about African and European military allies.

The White House’s new anti-media website includes denunciations of:

-ABC, which bribed the president
-CBS, which bribed the president and moved away from fact-based journalism trying to appeal to him and his fans
-WaPo, which spiked a Harris endorsement and tilts coverage in Trump’s favor

Fools.

ICE deported a woman who owned a home in the US for 30 years. A judge banned ICE from deporting her to Sierra Leone where she had been tortured, so it deported her to Ghana, which kidnapped her and sent her back Sierra Leone anyway. ICE is part of this illegal conspiracy.

Still depressing that this isn’t THE story of his first year.
The numbers vary from study to study but hundreds of thousands of people have died because of Elon Musk and Marco Rubio illegally disbanding USAID — a body count on par with the first eight years of the Syrian civil war — In just seven months. It’s mass death that is simply unfathomable in scale.

“Fight Club”?

Nice to see Van Hollen, Smith, Murphy, Sanders, and Warren pushing back on Schumer’s weak AF midterm strategy, but talk is not enough because he ain’t changing.

One of them needs to step up and challenge him for the leadership slot. Right now!
