Pete Hesgeth — who wants to rename the Navy ship that honors Medgar Evers, a WWII veteran who landed on Omaha Beach — is using that same beach for a photo op in which he promises we will “never forget” the veterans there. What an unbelievable asshole.

I know this has been done to death, but if Barack Obama had $300M set aside from the federal budget to go golfing. Part of which would go directly to him through golf cart rental etc, Fox would be wall to wall outrage until the mainstream media followed and it was the ‘only’ story for a week.

This isn't actually funny at all; it's a window into Trump's worldview, because he absolutely expected any German official to be upset over the Nazis losing. Because if Trump were German, he would be. Because things like "they were fucking Nazis" are way less important to him than "on my team"

Commentary: "Trump’s betrayal of the veterans community is unforgivable. But it is not unanswerable. We are answering. In protest. In court. In the media. At the ballot box." Today, June 6 — D-Day — thousands will rally across the country to protest.

The US & allies gave hope to the Europeans held hostage by Hitler & his minions with 1944 D-day. Nowadays the United States is squarely backing the Russian dictator who has invaded Ukraine. What happened to the Republicans; they worship a fool.

He needed air. The price was $539. When OptumRx dropped coverage of his $66 inhaler, Cole couldn’t afford the new price. 5 days later, he died from a severe asthma attack—with no inhaler. He paid with his life. www.nbcnews.com/nightly-news... #MedSky #SciSky #PedsSky #PulmSky

Fmr. Chief, Capital Seige Section at the DOJ, Greg Rosen just said this about the damage created by the January 6th pardons: "The underlying message of the pardons, and the expressive nature of the pardons, is that political violence is acceptable, particularly if it's done for a specific purpose."

I think @marcorubio is in denial or an outright liar about what he has wrought upon the world by dismantling USAID and our foreign aid programs. Yes, Marco you are killing children and our nations image as a humanitarian partner. You are just another toady. Gift: www.nytimes.com/2025/05/31/o...

I haven't seen any other members of Congress taking about ICE (and whoever else is helping ICE) wearing masks and removing badges to hide their identity. Call your Rep &. Senators! Ask them to talk about why ICE / DHS are hiding their identities! 🚨(202) 224-3121
