Today, we observe the anniversary of D-Day in Normandy. But, in 1944, certain news of D-Day didn't arrive until the dawn of June 7. In Western N. C., people like the Coffeys were glued to their radios & frantically bought newspapers. Fire alarms, sirens, & church bells rang in every town. #D-Day

6 June 1944. This 54 year old general made the call knowing the potential implication. I can’t imagine the mental & emotional strain. And it’s so very hard to comprehend the sacrifices for a new future that were a result. We cannot waste what happened on that day.

We honor the bravery of those who risked everything on D-Day—and remember why they did. Freedom demands vigilance, then and now. “I have full confidence in your courage, devotion to duty, and skill in battle. We will accept nothing less than full victory.”
— Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower

81 years ago, America's bravest generation stormed the beaches of Normandy in hopes of freeing Europe from the clutches of a brutal authoritarian. Today, we face authoritarianism on our shores. We owe it to ourselves, our country, and that great generation to fight for freedom here at home.

Oh boy! Grab your popcorn 🍿🍿🍿

Yikes! 🤢 Trump’s Bedminster golf club recently got slapped with 18 health violations and the lowest health grade in the entire county — scoring a 32 out of 100. Critical food safety risks, no soap at sinks, a household microwave in the kitchen, and more. 🔗 www.thedailybeast.com/president-do...

Repost if YOU are going to a No Kings Day rally on Trump’s birthday, June 14th. This is a great summary of what the events are for and why it’s important to TURN OUT! Please watch and share.

And to no one's surprise, the answer to said question is, "No."

These are being used to lure and kidnap Americans. But when the State Dept’s chief spokesperson was asked about it yesterday she didn’t know anything about it. All the best people.

It's official: Trump's 50% tariffs on steel and aluminum imports to the U.S. have gone into effect.

And yet, she knew this and still voted for him.

Comparisons to Pearl Harbor are singularly inapt. This was not an unprovoked attack. The Russian bombers had been raining death on Ukrainian civilians; the West had failed to provide sufficient air defenses. So the Ukrainians took it upon themselves. open.substack.com/pub/charlies...

⚡️ Ukraine invited to NATO summit, Zelensky says. Ukraine has been invited to the upcoming NATO summit in The Hague between June 24 and 25, President Volodymyr Zelensky said during a June 2 online press conference attended by the Kyiv Independent.

FEMA staff were left baffled and confused on Monday after David Richardson, the newly appointed head of the U.S. disaster agency, said during a briefing that he hadn’t known the country has a hurricane season, Reuters reported. Never forget that Trump always hires the best people.

FBI and Boulder Police have responded to a possible terror attack targeting Jewish protesters calling for the release of hostages held by Hamas. The perpetrator reportedly threw Molotov cocktails, setting several people on fire. Multiple people injured, including children. Suspect has been arrested.

Don't spend one minute feeling sorry for the law firms that capitulated. They prioritized their own profits over the rule of law, decency and democracy. They deserve the ridicule and scorn they are now receiving. History will remember them for the cowards they are.

Elon Musk grabbed our personal information, and now, Peter Thiel's Palantir appears to be one of the vehicles Trump will employ to use it against us. Don't worry; they'll continue reassuring us it will only be used to create a better world. (For them.)

Jake Tapper's ratings are at their lowest point in a decade. This is what happens when you betray your audience in hopes you can sell some books to Trump supporters (a bad strategy since they won't read it and hated you to begin with)

This was always the plan. You’d have to be delusional not to get that.

MUST WATCH: ICE kidnapped a disabled American citizen. Her name is Alma Bowman. Born in the Philippines while her dad served in the U.S. Navy. She’s lived here 48 years. They crashed her wheelchair, denied meds, cut her off from her lawyer—and jailed her. She. Is. A. Citizen.

Another shoe drops.

“We don't take an oath to a King. We don't take an oath to a wannabe dictator” “We take an oath to the Constitution." - General Mark Milley

Starting to think Tapper sounds more and more at home on Fox. "Worse than Watergate," my eye! That's b.s., and Jake knows it - but doesn't care, if he can pander to the Fox crowd and sell more books. Gotta get to #1 while looking out for #1.

Today, I was denied access to seeing my constituent, Mr. Kilmar Abrego Garcia. If there is nothing to hide, cut the crap. Let his lawyer and I check on him.

This #MemorialDay, we pause to honor the brave men and women who selflessly made the ultimate sacrifice for all our freedom. Let’s commit to be worthy of the heroic actions too many have made for those freedoms we take for granted.

So far all republicans in the House from SC voted to cut social security, Medicare and Medicaid. I will vote against Joe Wilson in 2026 as I’ve always voted. Even after meeting with his staff to provide facts, he voted against his constituents anyway. He knew what he was doing and the impact on SC2.

Of course, the smart thing for MAGA is to simply disavow the Patriot Front morons and say they have nothing to do with their movement and don’t represent them. But no. MAGA being MAGA, they instead claim that Patriot Front is a FBI operation. While they control the FBI.

Good to see we're draining the swamp and keeping a tight hold on the PRC espionage front

This is AWFUL.

Trump has time to host a dinner for the rich crypto guys who bought his memecoin, but not to shake hands with West Point graduates. Priorities.

It’s crucial to keep emphasizing that these EOs were lawless. There was never a plausible argument they were constitutional. This administration has nothing but contempt for the constitution and the rule of law.

When two people are murdered on our streets because the killer thought they were Jewish… And you who regularly fight bigotry say nothing because (reason)… Your silence allows Jew hatred to stand unopposed. Do what you’d do if the victims were a different minority. Speak out.
