It’s hard to watch the faces of the amazing men and women in uniform behind Vance today has he repeatedly disparaged Denmark. They work with the Danes every day. They know what a fantastic ally they are. They know how important the partnership is. And they know he’s clueless.

I fucking love how every Tom, Dick and Basement-dwelling Dumbfuck with an eagle, a cross, an American flag and 578 numbers in their handle is suddenly read-in on exactly which national security information is and is not “classified”. How DO they do it? 😂😂

Just curious — when Donald Trump PHYSICALLY mocked a disabled reporter, physically mocked a POW with limited arm movement and verbally mocked those who stutter, where were all you “HOW DARE SHE MOCK SOMEONE WITH DISABILITIES” Republicans then?

Every single one of these motherfuckers lied about what was discussed in that Signal chat, including the fucking director of the CIA. They all lied. And we now have the proof.

Wait, wait, WAIT — the White House is now saying that the Atlantic “lied” because Goldberg was texted “attack” plans and not “war plans” ahead of our PLAN to bomb the Houthis?!?! Are you fucking kidding me?!?

I don’t care if you call them war plans, attack plans, second bottle of Jack plans or John Jacob Jingleheimer Schmidt plans. I don’t care if they were classified-lite, adjacent or infused. They SHOULD NOT have been texted to a reporter, and everyone involved needs to resign. The end.

Maybe, just maybe, the Trump administration should spend less time trying to force itself on Greenland and more time making sure they don’t day-drunk text war plans in group chats.

I wrote this essay about Noem nearly a year ago. The week, the now “Secretary of Homeland Security”, made a video in front of what looked like a concentration camp, in which she wore a $60K watch and used imprisoned human beings as props. This was the goal. open.substack.com/pub/jojofrom...

So, according to Republicans, attacking our Capitol & beating police officers with their own shields is “free speech” that gets you pardoned, but signing your name to an op-ed in support of Palestine is “causing a ruckus” that gets you deported. Do I have that just about right?

These men behind bars are not in prison after being charged with crimes. They are "enemy combatants" being detained in a concentration camp. As such, Kristi Noem's crass photo-op using them as props violates the Geneva Convention's prohibition of ‘exposure to public curiosity’ of those captured.

In 1862, a Union soldier found cigars wrapped in a piece of paper in a field of clover. The paper was a copy of Confederate Gen. Lee's invasion orders. The Southern sloppiness helped the Union stop Lee at Antietam. It's unknown who lost the orders in the field, or if he was related to Pete Hegseth.

A few years ago I visited the National Museum of African American History & Culture with my grandparents. When we stepped out of the building my grandmother kept repeating the words “I lived it. I lived it. I lived it.” She’s still here. That history is still in her bones. You can never erase that.

Really feel like I’m losing my mind: government OBVIOUSLY cannot punish an individual law firm for hiring someone it disfavors! It’s ludicrously unconstitutional and I feel like without a day of law school I could argue the case. And yet the best paid lawyers in the country are folding?

In an authoritarian regime, you are not allowed to believe your own senses - the state tells you what is true. There was no classified information, the reporter is at fault, we didn’t lie under oath, you didn’t see what you saw. We aren’t inching towards autocracy, we’re neck deep in one.

The first rule of Trumpism is to never apologize or admit wrongdoing. That’s why he’s not firing anyone or even entertaining the idea anybody around him did something wrong.

I was afraid when he was just looking at her; in fact, it applies to his entire cabinet and any and all places of authority and power. All of this is right in line with Project 2025 insanity. And he has Project 2025 people in his administration just to make sure.
