So...now that our DUI Hire Pete Hegseth fired highly qualified CQ Brown for allegedly being too woke, who's our Chairman of the Joint Chiefs? Do we have one right now? Sincere question.

We are already at the ‘purging the generals and replace them with loyalists’ part of the Trump second term, just five weeks in. Totally normal. Not dangerous at all

If we have enough people with the knowledge and moral fortitude of Maine Governor Janet Mills, and the Associated Press- we might be able to save our Democracy

For all the USPS's faults, Americans have to realize: It's one of the best postal services in the world, even after being kneecapped by DeJoy. Fight for our postal service, guys. I know I will. It is an essential public good.

Stealing our tax dollars and using it to pay for propaganda promoting Trump.

Is... wait a minute... is this report indicating that Democrats sent a strongly worded letter? In response to beyond-Watergate-level corruption? Is that what we are down to, now? Strongly worded letters?

Trump and Trumpism summed up in a single statement.

House Republicans who were willing to hold town halls back home this week got an earful. At events from Georgia and Wisconsin to Oklahoma and Oregon, many of them faced hostile crowds furious about the sweeping budget cuts & mass firings of federal workers that Trump and Musk’s DOGE is carrying out.

AMERICA to the PENTAGON: STOP SPENDING $70,000 PER TOILET SEAT PETE HEGSETH: ... AMERICA to the PENTAGON: STOP SPENDING $70,000 PER TOILET SEAT PETE HEGSETH: We’re going to fire 76,000 Americans

Imagine being too far-right and Nazi-like for the French far-right: "French far-right leader cancels US speech after ex Trump aide Bannon appeared to make 'Nazi gesture'"

If true then the US is now a genuine Russia-style mafia state. Russia extorts with energy-, the US with tech-dependence. I trust the conclusions we draw from this will also turn into a semblance of policy.

Posting my embroidery so people can find me... 🐯 #embroidery #handembroidery

I think this is our future unless someone stops him. Musk’s plan for X has been for it to replace the entire banking system. His keen interest in seizing control of Treasury payments (and its tech) may forebode an intention to have such payments go through X www.theverge.com/2023/10/26/2...

We revamped our donations page today. Not telling you that because you should give us money (although you should), but I think many of you will like reading through the list of cool stuff we've done. Enjoy!

Extortion, pure and simple.

It’s imperative at this point that Europe develop a defense posture independent of the United States, which should be treated as the ally of Russia that it has now become.

Elon has intervened in two legal requests in the US: one for Trump, and another for likely suspect leakers. A description of his efforts to stall the Trump warrant is in the Jack Smith report that Aileen Cannon is refusing to release.

Trump just fired the country's senior military officer: Gen. Charles Q. Brown Jr., a four-star fighter pilot who became only the second African American to hold the chairman's job.

I hope it's becoming obvious, but this last election showed us how mindblowingly clueless the majority of Americans are.

25% of all the debt right now. Trump is responsible for 25% of the debt right now.

How does firing Americans help make America great again? Cutting 5-8% of the workers is unproductive and harmful to our economy and society. This is just simply reckless and unsustainable. www.cnn.com/2025/02/21/p...

Trump spars with Maine’s governor at the White House over transgender athletes. Gov. Janet Mills telling Trump, “We’ll see you in court,” over his push to deny federal funding to the state over transgender athletes. #Voices4Victory apnews.com/live/trump-p...

Better not call it a “vaccine” or it might not get approved. Maybe market it as a recreational drug.
