Retired nurse anesthetist and USAF Colonel. Love to fly and go out to the range and shoot trap. Frustrated by current politics and where it seems to be going. Interested in how people with disabilities, like my daughter, will fare in trump 2.0. Be polite.

Folks in rural areas: The Big Beautiful Bill will close your local hospitals after the Medicaid cuts take effect. Tell your senators your community needs them to stay open!

Who did this?🤣

More of this, please. Thank you.

Who'd have thought Germany was standing up to dictatorship when the United States is failing?

Even if Iran had a nuclear device, would they have enough to make a difference strategically? And, Iran does not have the capability to deliver the device. They do not have the aircraft or capable missiles to ensure success; but this not make a difference to trump. It's about control.

Fearless leader wants to keep the national guard on for an extended period of time. I don't know if this has changed but using the guard after 30 days of active duty required the approval of Congress. Maybe the WH clowns don't know this but they can always use mercs just like Reagan did.

The reactions to the Minnesota shooting have been unhinged and insane. There is no room for violence…. It only gets worse: www.youtube.com/watch?v=POY9...

The most consequential Speaker in state history.

Best image of the day:

My daughter participated in a protest in Columbus, OH; not "No Kings" but a protest against the DEI laws passed in Ohio against colleges and reducing gov funding and dictating what is acceptable. Sounds like fascism to me and we need to fight this!

The Commander in Chief of the CA national Guard is Gavin Newsom, not you, Donald. Stay in your damn lane.

At Ft Bragg some of our troops cheered after the inappropriate remarks trump made re Gov Newsom. Unprofessional and unacceptable but given this scum bag, predictable. However, their commanders need to have a word with them, keep your FN opinions to yourself until you are in the barracks.

What’s the real difference between the National Guard and active duty troops—and why does it matter in LA? Trump just federalized the California Guard against the governor’s wishes, a rare move not seen since 1965. Here’s what you need to know: youtu.be/B7NRZrTzZuM
