Goddess, it made me seasick, too -- and I sailed for 33 years without ever getting seasick! Otherwise, loved the video. 🐝💛🖤

True, and Nichols was advocating for the generals to speak out about holding the line against politicizing the troops, which T**** did at Fort Bragg.

. . . by "yes" people who will do what T**** wants. But that would be the kind of leadership that generals get paid to provide, right?

#AbolishICE We don't need them; we did fine without them before W created them in the monster DHS.

Absolutely a must-read, and quite terrifying, actually. We can't expect much from the enlisted personnel, but we can expect leadership from the generals. Will we get it?

Not just ICE, but everyone who voted for this. Everyone who just couldn't vote for the Black lady.

But, Chezgeller, they're trying to make it impossible for the defendant to get an impartial jury.

What's the point of winning, if in order to do it we have to become Republicans-Lite? That's like dumb.

I honestly can't remember when I last agreed with a decision by the Florida Board of Governors -- but I'm more than good with this one.

And we loyal alums of Michigan are laughing because Ono sold us out, and everything we stand for, just to get the $3 million from UF. So no, I'm not starting to feel for him. Karma, baby.

Enough of us failed to vote for the Black lady. That's what made this happen.

This is so wrong. International students are already the most heavily vetted and most closely tracked of any class of non-immigrant visa holders in the US. No need to police their thoughts. The T**** regime is destroying everything that attracts them to come here.

I said this to a high-ranking staffer to Sen. Rick Scott (R-FL) in April. I thought he was going to fall off his chair, but he didn't. And I'm right.

In Sean's first primary, I went door to door for Becky Anderson, and when Sean won, I then went door to door for Sean in the general. That's also how it works! BTW, he's a great Congressman; unfortunately I now live in exile in super red Florida. Ugh.
