War hero schools a chickenhawk.

BEAUTIFUL NEW JWST IMAGE OF THE FLAME NEBULA!!!

We just watched Trump & Vance do Putin’s bidding in the Oval Office & it was horrific. Not even two months into this administration & it’s a disaster for the free world.

It’s horrifying that it’s come to this, but as someone with a deep affinity for Europe I feel moved seeing that continent come together to try to save itself in the absence of any meaningful aid from the totalitarian regime that’s in the midst of taking over the United States through an illegal coup

As to Donald Trump’s foreign policy, this is it. This is the shibboleth. If you understand where the Trump Doctrine comes from, you understand exactly what is happening right now and why. Every American should read this, and so should every European diplomat. From a bestselling Trump biographer:

FYI. I go off on an EPIC Rant on the anniversary of America joining the Axis of Evil Autocrats. Beware. It’s is F-Bombs Away on Trump, MAGA & those who betrayed their oath.

We are in trouble.

The abrupt terminations of more than 1,000 employees, including new Epidemic Intelligence Officers, across CDC are deeply disturbing. For more than 70 years, EIS officers have served on America’s front line as its disease detectives, ready at a moment’s notice to respond to emerging outbreaks.

to call this a clown show is unfair to clowns. pure madness. like playing russian roulette with a machine gun. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/05/u...

"In Mogadishu Somalia, the State Department instructed security guards protecting an arms depot from insurgents to simply walk off the site. When the guards asked what would happen to the armory, their government contacts told them they didn’t have any answers..." www.propublica.org/article/trum...

I think we are all searching in vain for evidence that Donald Trump or Elon Musk are serving America rather than other interests. Their anger at USAID sounds like ventriloquism from Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping. It makes no sense whatsoever to anyone who actually loves this country and its values.

The start of week three:

A witch hunt has begun at the FBI. Employees are required to provide information by Tuesday and are being encouraged to report on their coworkers. The FBI questionnaire asks agents about their roles in various cases, including whether they made arrests or appeared in court, among other details.

Where are the defenders of the US as Elon and nameless private agents infiltrate US agencies, commandeer US servers, steal US data, seize US money, march US officials from US buildings? Who sallies forth from the FBI? The CIA? Congress? DoD? The media? This is a coup—and America appears defenseless.

If this isn't enough to freak everybody the fuck out, I do not know what else will.

the point is not that it's fast -- the point it that it's systematic. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/01/o...

Holy ****

I assume every Democratic member of Congress knows that not one word uttered by Kash Patel—under oath or otherwise—can be believed. It's difficult for me to articulate how untrustworthy and dangerous the man is. If America collapses in the next year, him being the FBI director would be one reason.

@corybooker.com hello I used to run the Wendy’s Twitter account and I am begging you to let me help you with the dems social media strategy, I will literally do it for free at this point

🏆 Governor Pritzker- Illinois - has signed an order prohibiting all J6 rioters from state employment.

Howdy folks, My apologies for not being here. I have been very busy and in the middle of planning my move coming soon. I do plan on leaving X and coming here around the first of March.

Not today, Satan

oh! www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

He is a monster.

This is it. This is the one. I think this is my most important report on Elon Musk as a Musk biographer. Read this and you will understand the man. Warning: dark stuff inside.

RFK, Jr. looks like a deer in headlights when confronted by his own previous statements on vaccines & AIDS. This man isn’t qualified.

There are quite a few irresponsible conspiracy theories about JFK and who took his life. There are quite a few irresponsible conspiracy theories about RFK and who took his life. There are many, many irresponsible conspiracy theories by RFK Jr. that will take thousands of lives.

So, it turns out federal employees take their oath, their job & their duty to serve dead serious. Retirees (like me) understand the oath doesn’t expire just because you’ve left. This whole thread is giving me life, but especially this:

Caroline Kennedy warns senators of ‘predator’ RFK Jr. in searing letter wapo.st/3CnzSLP "...he is willing to enrich himself by denying access to a vaccine that can prevent almost all forms of cervical cancer...: "...our family is united in terms of our support for the public health sector..."

Flu vaccines have prevented millions of deaths – our research proves it theconversation.com/flu-vaccines... Vaccines "reduce the burden of disease on healthcare systems and, more importantly, it saves lives." "...crucial that we gather and analyse all available evidence, share it.." #VaccinesWork

Caroline Kennedy, cousin to the current pick for HHS secretary Robert F Kennedy Jr, has penned a scathing letter warning senators about her cousin, calling him a "predator." She also says her father and uncle would be "disgusted" by RFK, Jr. www.youtube.com/watch?v=YLLx...

Thanks to George Conway for posting Caroline Kennedy's letter so everyone is informed about RFK Jr. Please repost far and wide.

Wow. Caroline Kennedy breaks her silence on RFK Jr in a message to Senators: “We grew up together. It’s no surprise that he keeps birds of prey as pets because Bobby himself is a predator. He enjoyed showing off by putting baby chickens & mice in a blender to feed to his hawks.”
