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.

We can’t forget that Trump once called members of our military "suckers" & "losers.” So, let’s be honest: he’s attempting to use our military as his personal political pawns and believes they owe loyalty to him and not to our Constitution and our country.

It’s unfortunate that individuals of the military cannot trust their leadership to give legal orders

But here we are

Hopefully the military will overwhelmingly vote them out

I'm a centrist because I suffer from an extreme empathy deficit. Or y'know, so I am TOLD.
I'm a centrist because I don't want to actually take a stand on anything
I'm a centrist because none of this cruelty actually inconveniences me.

Wait until you get to this part, Sir.

I have multiple friends who are real estate agents in their 30s and 40s and all of them say that the current market is the worst theyve ever seen—even worse than 2008-09
"If you look at job growth between January and September ... for the past 15 years, it's only been worse once, and that was during the pandemic ... It is the worst first nine months for the labor market in 15 years."
