Deleted after 20 minutes but this is the mindset.

It’s what is said in private among themselves.

This is how they think about the rest of the world.

No one is considered an ally.

There will be no discussion.

canceling the commissary — and i would assume, exchange — program is a one way ticket to getting a bonus army situation. for those unaware, the commissaries and exchanges are subsidized grocery and department stores for service members, veterans and their families.
Good lord. You weren’t joking.

The same people having a temper tantrum over DEI just confirmed the least qualified Secretary of Defense in US history because Trump liked him on TV.

Yes. "Forever invasions" is a great way to describe what I'm trying to identify in this piece
“Forever war,” meet “forever invasion.”
Forever wars can be used to justify endless spending, endless use of war powers, & endless fear.
Forever invasions can be used to justify justify endless spending, endless use of emergency powers, & endless fear.
And will be, in the weeks ahead in the U.S.A.
The ugly celebration of mass deportations by Trump, the WH, and Karoline Leavitt is vile on its own. But it also has a purpose: It's a pretext for Trump to vastly expand his powers. That's what the "invasion" language is really about.

New piece from me:

Face it, Trump could have said “30 days notice starting now. IGs fired” and it would have been perfectly legal and made 1 month difference in a 48 month term. He didn’t because breaking the law was the point, to demonstrate that the laws don’t apply to him and daring anyone to try to stop him.

As expected, the Trump team is already deleting climate info from government websites. In anticipation, our team at Urban Ocean Lab created a permanent archive of 100+ key resources and published a permanent archive: www.urbanoceanlab.org/resource-hub 👩🏽‍💻

Heather Cox Richardso's chat yesterday, mentions many other avenues for getting great news articles besides fb. She will be moving to YouTube & can also be found on substance, too. Link below:

I don't know who needs to hear this, but if all you accomplish this weekend is reading a riveting novel cover-to-cover whilst drinking multiple kettles of tea and consuming a scandalous amount of croissants, then you will have accomplished more than enough.
