What does it say about our country that the world’s richest man and the world’s most powerful man are both gibbering idiots, each of whom needs the other to complete himself?
We too could be spending on $500 drones. Instead, we’re spending $500 million for weapons systems that we’ll still be waiting on when China decides to attack Taiwan and Putin decides that Poland looks like a good place to grow Russian wheat.
It's obscene. All of it. Musk, his billions; Trump, his hundreds of millions; crypto entities like “World Liberty Financial” that with Trump’s control of the FTC and SEC is just a license to print money.
Trump’s frustration at not being able to end the war in Ukraine is boiling over. He has changed his timeline for ending the war multiple times, and now he is changing his rhetoric about his “friend” Putin. While here at home he is taking hit after hit.
Trump’s pardons are being called “get out of jail free” cards, but they’re worse than that. By preemptively ordering that certain people not be prosecuted, they will never be charged, much less come to trial and be convicted.
All of those who gave their lives, no matter their skin color or religion or political party or sexuality, deserve the same honor we bestow upon all our fallen.
Trump wants to do terrible things to this country, and if we’re going to stop him, or hinder his progress, or wound him in any way, we need to take this man and his talents seriously
While Brown v. Board of Education may stay on the books, rats from the Heritage Foundation and Trump’s Department of Justice are trying to undercut it and every other federal program and court decision they don’t agree with.
Thomas and Alito have apparently forgotten that they were appointed to rule on whether laws and actions by the government are constitutional, not to uphold whatever Donald Trump wants to do.
Who’s in charge? The dark prince of racism and xenophobia, Stephen Miller himself? It’s sure as hell not Donald Trump. He’d rather be out cheating at golf.
So who owns the courts? Nearly every time the Supreme Court opens its doors to the public for a hearing on a case that has reached its august chambers, that question will be at least be an issue, if not the issue.
If there is one thing Donald Trump really, really, really knows how to do, it is telling lies. The Washington Post kept count of his lies during his first term, finding that he had told 30,573 “untruths” in four years.
Donald Trump can sign all the executive orders he wants, and Pete Hegseth can thunder about DEI and “wokeism” until he goes hoarse, but they are not going to change the facts on the ground either at West Point or in the Army at large.
