So true it hurts

California lawmakers have introduced a bill to ban law enforcement officers from covering their faces and to require visible identification during operations.

This is an absolute betrayal of promises made by Congress to protect the people who protected American soldiers. A betrayal by people who think American greatness is based on half-assed military parades rather than being a credible ally to those that risked their lives for America.

Statement from the two children of Melissa and Mark Hortman. “Hope and resilience are the enemy of fear. Our parents lived their lives with immense dedication to their fellow humans. This tragedy must become a moment for us to come together.”

The Secretary of Energy & Democrats agree: nuclear & geothermal help achieve energy dominance, and the Loan Programs Office & the IRA tax credits help nuclear & geothermal. Yet House Republicans are gutting both. youtube.com/shorts/VsAWb...

CENSURE MIKE LEE TOMORROW MORNING!!!!!!

This is well stated. Mike Lee will forever be associated in my mind with his unbelievably cruel and stupid tweets about the Hortman assassination. He is a disgrace to the Senate and Utah.

For a lot of relatively comfortable Americans, electing an emotionally incontinent imbecile was a bit of entertainment. A game. Good sport, owning those libs. I hope they’re duly entertained.

I would like to know how, day after day, Dr. Heather Cox Richardson writes so clearly and eloquently. Her “Letter from an American” from Friday (June 13) is a wonderful example, reminding us of the history of the U.S. Army and its anti-tyranny founding purpose. @hcrichardson.bsky.social

A leaked Department of Homeland Security memo reportedly shows officials were vulnerable to the same types of attacks that resulted in the death of a Democratic lawmaker Saturday. Oops, I guess we forgot to notify lawmakers of the threat. We’ve been really busy. www.rawstory.com/leaked-memo-...

An Afghan man who worked as a translator for the U.S. military during the war was detained by ICE after showing up for a hearing inside of a federal courthouse in San Diego, his attorney says. He fears that if he returns to Afghanistan, he would be tortured or even killed, @nbcsandiego.com reports.

So, when do we get to America First?

“I find it unconscionable that someone could step up to serve, voluntarily, in our military and be willing to sacrifice their life for our country only to have their families torn apart.” This article first appeared @thewarhorsenews.bsky.social

Senator Mike Lee pretended he was on the phone to avoid being confronted by @smith.senate.gov after he mocked assassination victims this weekend. She made sure he heard what she had to say.

I'm almost certain the parade I participated in for graduation from basic training was snappier, better organized, and possibly had more people in attendance.

Now that we’ve seen the full Senate text, we can say for certain: either the House or the Senate version would be the largest transfer of wealth from the poor to the rich in a single law in history. Each have the largest Medicaid and largest SNAP cuts ever. And each give huge tax cuts to the rich.

“The contrast between the protests and the military parade suggested an important shift in political culture. The momentum and the joy, as well as the American flags, were on the side of those protesting Trump’s growing authoritarianism.” — @hcrichardson.bsky.social

This is perfect

One begins to wonder if putting the dumbest motherfucker ever to live in charge was a mistake.

The poor turn out for Donnie’s military parade means he forgot that all his campaign rally crowds were paid to attend. Mental decline.

BREAKING: A federal jury finds MyPillow founder, Mike Lindell, defamed a former voting equipment firm employee after the 2020 presidential election.

[email protected] on Mike Lee: "Either he's so mentally ill and deranged that he's convinced himself that this person is a Marxist, and that Tim Walz is responsible....Or he knows it's a lie....either one of those options makes him totally unacceptable as a person in public trust."

He has to pay $2.3M.

I hope the good people of Utah fire him in 2028 - though he should resign now.
