Just completed my move back “home.” After 20 years away. First thing that stood out to me from DC to where I am now is reverse sticker price. Took the family out and had a few beers, wine and food for all. Was like $60. In DC it would be $175

This is too concerning & too plausible with this administration to ignore. I hope I am wrong, but this needs to be investigated. They will not come clean & would love to keep the story where it is. Which is enough to make most vomit but it may be soooo much worse. #Politics #RussiaHasUsByTheBalls
I saw the work by Olga Lautman and he findings were disturbing: Steven Witkoff was in Russia when he was added to the signal chat. Russia has infiltrated Signal and used against Ukrainians. Very possible they have the classified signal info:

Top intelligence committees need to begin an investigation into Pete Hegseth's epic Signal chat mishap. ASAP.
There should be televised hearings so all Americans have transparency on how such an enormous breach of national security could take place in first place.

Ok, I admit, the democrats were in a tough spot here. Being a #Bernie supporter from day 1, I believe it’s of their own doing. That doesn’t mean the decision here was easy. IDK how I would vote even now. Living in & working at the Pentagon, a shutdown kills those who already paid a steep price.
