I'm watching the HBO documentary on the Ohio State sexual abuse case that should've come out before the election, and wow. It's gutting and hard to watch, but I wish everyone would. And Jim Jordan is a big fat liar and despicable person. But you all knew that.

Personally I am unfamiliar with any legitimate activity that requires switching license plates, which by the way is illegal.

❗️The US coordinated its draft resolution at the UN for the anniversary of the invasion of Ukraine with Russia - without the knowledge of its allies, - Le Monde According to the publication, Washington tried to replace the Ukrainian version with a softer text discussed with Moscow.

They’re doing this to children? www.mysanantonio.com/news/local/a...

Every day that the incompetent Pete Hegseth remains in his defense role, the less safe America becomes.

Federal agents wearing plain clothes tried to question kids at elementary schools in L.A. on Monday, according to a reporter at Spectrum News. "Superintendent Carvahlo said the agents claimed they had parent permission to question the kids, but it wasn't true"

In case you're wondering... it's been 17 days since a reporter was added to a Signal group chat where our government officials were sharing war plans. And nobody has been fired... Don't stop talking about SignalGate

FFS

Perhaps there were signs he is incompetent

This week, as the number of confirmed measles cases rose to 483, the CDC buried a report that would’ve stressed the importance of getting vaccinated. The move was “not normal at all,” one agency staff member said.

Fuentes: “I don't wanna hear women talking back to men. I don't want to hear women in public. Women should not have the freedom to wear whatever they want, say whatever they want... Women need to act like women and men need to act like men-- and that means men are gonna be the boss.” maga values

Where did Hegseth get the info he dropped into the Signal chat? Did he copy/paste it from another chat? “The Vice President that I worked for wouldn’t even use AirPods because she understood the national security threat. These people—it’s amateur hour at the OK corral.” @symonedsanders.bsky.social

It gets worse. This Signal situation is just the tip of the iceberg of incompetence in this administration.

Reuters: "The best-known member of Elon Musk's US DOGE Service team of technologists once provided support to a cybercrime gang that bragged about trafficking in stolen data and cyberstalking an FBI agent, according to digital records reviewed by Reuters."

Unique to America, our health care system is designed not to make people well, but to make CEOs & wealthy stockholders incredibly rich. The result: We have the highest infant mortality rate of any wealthy country on earth. How cruel, how immoral is that? We need Medicare for All.

Imagine thinking a guy who charges around $100K for a vehicle with glued on metal panels that just fall off is the one to be trusted anywhere near our government.

Full form of MAG.

The geniuses at DOGE are bringing us insights like "I'm not really sure why the tax agency for a country of 330 million people has a larger staff than a midsize bank"

After mass firings, the IRS will be forced to close audits of wealthy taxpayers. Audits of rich individuals and corporations will soon be closed — without action — due to a lack of personnel to complete them. Millions upon millions in revenue will be lost. “All of a sudden, these cases…

Ahead of Germany’s election, with anti-immigrant sentiment rising, they released viral videos showing life without immigrants. History proves that when a country starts erasing certain people, it doesn’t end well. 🧵

Ask yourself: Why would anyone who wasn’t an asset of the Russian government do this? Why would any decent human being do this?

BREAKING: Donald Trump Calls For The Impeachment Of The Federal Judge Who Ruled Against Him. This is a SIGNIFICANT escalation. open.substack.com/pub/aaronpar...

His track record speaks for itself. While we continue to resist, we should take comfort in that he is deeply incompetent, not very bright & his policies are hurting even his most devoted supporters. Let's not get in the way of his inevitable self-destruction.

On her way to an emergency medical checkup, a 10-year old little girl recovering from brain cancer surgery and her family were stopped by U.S. Customs and Border Protection. This is the heartbreaking story of a mixed-status family. Four American-born children and their undocumented parents were…

Texas megachurch pastor and former Trump advisor, Robert Morris, was just indicted for raping a 12 year old girl.

The Justice Department is slashing its public corruption unit—because the easiest way to hide corruption is to stop looking for it. 📌 Prosecutors have been told they will be asked to take new assignments in the department and as few as five lawyers may remain in the unit.

Flashback:

No one ever said they were creative.

JUST NOW: Democratic Rep. Tom Suozzi set the record straight on Social Security. Everyone needs to hear this.

Board member of Meta hugs it out with Andrew Tate, well known heinous person www.washingtonpost.com/entertainmen...

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell. This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

NEW: Senator Marshall (R-KS) RUNS AWAY, fleeing his own town hall after being asked about DOGE firing Veterans. MAKE HIM GO VIRAL.

This is how it should have ended. Video by @auroadrone

When a clown moves into a palace, he doesn't become a king. The palace becomes a circus. - old saying

Make Russia Great Again Is this the new slogan?

Kamala was right. And it only took him less than 30 days to roll over for Putin.

For the first time in history Russia are in control of the United States of America. The retoric of Trump is directly from the russian depts. and the US government is falling apart.

Attorney General Pam Bondi disbanded an FBI task force investigating foreign influence operations, including those targeting U.S. elections. Additionally, she restricted enforcement actions against individuals who fail to disclose lobbying on behalf of foreign governments.

We agree.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

We have been working for years to split NATO. Now Trump is doing it for us! - Russian commentators

NEW: Donald Trump fired a bunch of veterans today while simultaneously hindering care for veterans. In a month or so, republicans in Congress will cut food stamps so these veterans won’t be able to feed themselves or their families. I wonder how many of them voted for Trump.

📌I guarantee you these stupid-shit Trump/Musk hyenas are the ones who are blowing their fingers off on the 4th of July ...
