Thou shalt NOT mock the sailors you’ve had on deployment for over 200 consecutive days without a break and say its “not enough” when you dodged the draft six times and called STDs your personal Vietnam and you spend all day drawing ballrooms and posting AI slop.
So….did trump’s DOJ initiate a lawsuit against the Lakers’ owner and then agree to drop it if he sold the team to his son in law? That is almost exactly how Putin took over all of the profitable businesses in Russia.
“We need to face facts that the US military is in terrible shape and it will continue to get worse under the present leadership. This is in some ways the greatest scandal in US history. The US has spent about $9 TRILLION on defense since 2016, and has created this deeply flawed, deteriorating force”

Amazon has added a "class action waiver" to their terms and conditions. I am being notified today and it starts today. They're about to get caught doing more bullshit, huh?
President Obama: “We pulled it off without firing a missile. We got 97% of their enriched uranium out. There’s no dispute that it worked and we didn’t have to kill a whole bunch of people or shut down the Strait of Hormuz.”
Webanalyst@webanalyst.bsky.social · 5h agoTrump to Americans: you just need to pay a little bit more for oil to prevent a terrorist nation from acquiring a nuclear bomb. He should be saying: Trump to Oil Companies: we are going to apply a price cap on domestic oil to prevent you earning a windfall profit at the expense of Americans.
I’m watching political ads on tv in Cincinnati. They claim that Dems took money from social security and gave it to illegals. They also wrote checks to illegals during covid. How can it be legal for them to make these claims without proof? This is disturbing because uninformed voters believe it.
Seeing that makes me hope Texans have grown up!

The doctor who claimed that vaccines cause autism lost his medical license for faking for the study. But his lies and the damage he did to public health persist long after his paper was pulled. This is why science communication is so difficult; all it takes is one grifter.
Sailors on the USS Abraham Lincoln have no fresh food. The Secretary of Defense spent millions on Lobsters. Ordinary Americans are struggling to pay for food, gas, and rent. The Trump family has made BILLIONS from insider trading and graft. This regime doesn’t care about us—only themselves.
@alexbollinger.bsky.social from LGBT Nation hit on my pet peeve. Boebert is my rep. She is constantly deriding gay parents. We are gay parents in her district. Our son played sports, was the colonel of 5 HS JROTC cadets, valedictorian, and graduated MIT with 2 degrees. 1/
New reporting finds that Justice Samuel Alito has earned as much as $2.9M from oil and gas stocks during his time on the Supreme Court. Anyone else think it's time for real SCOTUS ethics reforms?

A competent Secretary of Defense would be greatly alarmed about reports of squalor on the USS Abraham Lincoln and go see the conditions for himself. But Pete Hegseth is not competent—he’s just a vain and vapid TV talk show chatterbox.
My favorite murder ballad is “The Night the Lights Went Out in Georgia”, sung by Vikki Lawrence.
In an interview, Afghanistan’s foreign minister called on the U.S. to reopen its embassy and invest in the country — a near-impossible sell for now, analysts and former diplomats say. NO. Not until girls have the right to education, jobs, and strong laws against femicide.
Consider this: Trump hates dogs, and dogs hate Trump. Enough said.
At 27, Barack Obama was starting Harvard Law after years as a community organizer. At 27, Donald Trump was sued by the DOJ for racial discrimination in housing. One was expanding civil rights; the other was violating them. We know who history will admire."
"Alexa, show me the last person you'd want in charge of the military during a war."
Q: The family members of US service members are concerned about the conditions on the USS Lincoln TRUMP: No they're not Q: Has the deployment gone on too long? TRUMP: No no no. Not nearly long enough.

Dear Humans,

And we know why...he's the most corrupt president that the United States has ever had...
So far the fat fuck has destroyed our history, murdered our citizens, broken our economy, lost a war against a second rate power, driven prices up and wages down, alienated ALL of our allies, squandered our military arms, created a Magastapo, and stolen billions. What the fuck does it take America?
Americans are relearning the lesson we learned during the Gilded Age of the late 1890s, when robber barons ran the government and the economy for their own benefit: Oligarchy is incompatible with the common good. I'm hopeful we'll respond with a new progressive movement.
