🇺🇸 Belated congratulations from this sailor to Navy today. You beat Army and that's as things should be.

🇺🇸 Remember your oath. This nation will count on you to get it right and make decisions that are worthy of her, because we have a dishonorable man leading us who is not.

🇺🇸 Don't give up the ship.

A tanker? We just doing straight up piracy now?
Trump: "It's been an interesting day from the standpoint of news. As you probably know, we've just seized a tanker on the coast of Venezuela. Largest one ever seized actually. And other things are happening."

Kelly: He runs around on stage talking about lethality and the warrior ethos.. That’s not the message that should be coming from the Secretary of Defense… He runs around on a stage like he’s a 12 year old playing army. It’s embarrassing.

They’re simultaneously arguing that soldiers have to follow all orders from the president, legal or not, but they get to ignore orders from a federal judge if they feel they’re not legal.
KARL: Did you know about the judge's order when you issued your order for the planes to continue?

KRISTI NOEM: This is an activist judge. We comply with all federal orders that are lawful and binding.

GOP Rep. Don Bacon: "I don't know why the administration keeps pursuing the pointless. But yet we see in the WSJ that it's all about trying to make agreements on rare earth minerals and natural gas pipelines, which Ukraine has no part of. Putin does not want peace. The president should see it"

There must be immediate Congressional investigations into Pete Hegseth’s ordering the killings of strike survivors and over 80 people in international waters. Where is my opponent Rep. Ann Wagner? Bible verses and banking regulations aren’t going to save you. Do your job or resign! @wellmanformo

When you draw a platoon leader like Hegseth, it’s your worst nightmare. You just ride it out until he’s gone and gets replaced by someone who isn’t a complete jackass. Only a fool like Trump would put one of them in charge of the entire defense department.

BASH: We have seen these attacks from the president at other people. It's not new. And I haven't heard you speak out about it until it was directed at you.

MARJORIE TAYLOR GREENE: I think that's fair criticism. And I would like to say, humbly, I'm sorry for taking part in the toxic politics.

Trump want to make a one time payment of 400 bucks, then cancel your insurance. You can use that money to make a downpayment on your coffin.
Trump: "I am recommending to Senate Republicans that the Hundreds of Billions of Dollars currently being sent to money sucking Insurance Companies in order to save the bad Healthcare provided by ObamaCare, BE SENT DIRECTLY TO THE PEOPLE SO THAT THEY CAN PURCHASE THEIR OWN, MUCH BETTER, HEALTHCARE."

Trump every time he’s confronted about one of his lies: “Who are you with?”

Reporter: Gives name of company.

Trump: You’re fake news. You’re terrible. I’m not calling on you anymore! You should be ashamed of yourself! This is why nobody watches you!

Then goes back to lying.

If Prince Andrew used Epstein’s child sex trafficking ring, he should go to jail.

If Bill Clinton used Epstein’s child sex trafficking ring, he should go to jail.

If Donald Trump used Epstein’s child sex trafficking ring, he should go to jail.

That wasn’t so difficult, was it?

Same thing Duterte did in the Philippines
Rand Paul on Trump's strikes on boats: "I would call them extrajudicial killings. This is akin to what China does, what Iran does with drug dealers -- they summarily execute people without presenting evidence to the public. So it's wrong."

I will never forgive Bush for that
A Republican president has decided he wants to go to war with Venezuela and is now creating the pretext to justify it, just like Bush did with Iraq.

Then it was WMDs, now it is drugs.

Except even Bush still at least went to Congress for a vote.

King Donald doesn’t bother.

I haven’t seen anyone talk about how Jane Doe - an Epstein survivor - just sued the Bank of New York Mellon for funding Epstein and failing to file a Suspicious Activity Report. A Mellon heir is the one who gave $130M to pay the troops. Seems bribey to me.

This is their playbook for the midterms. Intimidation and harassment - if we are lucky it will only be that. Because their full playbook is most likely much worse but this is the warmup act.

I’ve been waiting for many years for a prominent Democrat to relentlessly fact-check their lies in real time rather than issuing press statements days later when it’s too late.
