Trump in his attack on ActBlue at the same time as his bitcoin auction appears to think that it's only the DNC that is against him. Boy, is he in for a disappointing revelation. LOL.

Trump's meme coin auction. Just more proof that he's only in it for the money. He doesn't give a damn about The People, including "his base". Think they're seeing that YET?

Why is Trump's administration carrying out gov't business via "social media"? Doesn't strike me a a very professional thing to do. "Social media" was meant to be a place for opinions and unofficial conversations, not an "official" podium for "proclamations".

What became of the USA that I grew up believing in and served in the military to defend? The one wherein the President was to represent The People - nationally and internationally? Where the Congress was to coordinate, compromise, and represent The People?

In its simplest form, do I think that Immigrants who are in the US illegally be allowed to remain here? No. BUT, it's not that simple. Should they be sent back to where they came from (never some 3rd party prison!)? What are any mitigating circumstances?

Telling Ukraine that they cannot join NATO pretty much equates with telling POTUS that to be President he has to give up affiliation with a political party.

Signal Chat on a Pentagon desktop computer?? As I remember it, putting a personal, commercial program onto a gov't computer is against regulations; security rick. Even "surfing the web" to many outside Internet sites is restricted.

If we look at history - as far back as you'd like - regardless of how strong as we may think we are, the USA cannot defeat our adversaries in any physical or financial battle without the coalition of allies which we have constructed over the years. Alone we could well lose more than we can afford.

HEY ALL ! Trump finally said a truth ! "When you add those to the price of the product, those products won't sell." After all along professing that the other countries paid the cost of the tariff. He finally admitted that he was wrong and lying and that the consumer pays the tariff cost.

Let's gather thoughts and insight here. IF we were to somehow get rid of Trump right now, we are left with the line of succession: J.D. Vance, Mike Johnson,,, Where would that put us?? Is there some path back to political and national sanity?

Hey Hegseth; You are being "judged on how well you do your job. Full stop." And in case you wondered, your wife does not have a "need to know".

Trump, Vance, Johnson, Bondi, DOJ, DNI, ICE, et al. believe that this is the "American way" to be "great". America has never before been a fascist State.

The tariffs, the Stock Market, the Bond Market, the World Markets, the congressional funding allocations, etc., etc... I think I read somewhere that Trump got a college degree in economics? The must have been one hell of a grading curve and a very low bar to pass the courses.

A day late and a dollar short? Coming to understand that Capitalism just as much an enemy of "America" as Fascism or Communism. The "American Dream" was never to "get rich". It was to work toward a comfortable life of home, family, and career.

The Administration wants to say that Hegseth's illegal sharing of sensitive military information is no big deal because the mission was successful. That's equal to saying that John Doe aimed his weapon at POTUS, but the POTUS made it to his destination without problems. We are not that stupid.

Should we start calling Hegseth a "mini-me"? It's no wonder Trump likes him. He lies at the drop of hat, especially when he's caught wrong; he craves the camera and publicity; he ignore rules and regulations to do whatever he wants; he brags up what he thinks he knows (displaying actual ignorance)..

@stephruhle.bsky.social Trump believes that he can be the CEO and Director of The Board of "everything". He doesn't realize that American government isn't a "corporate business".
