"Boots on the ground" is a more benign way of saying "about to get killed to distract from Donald Trump raping little girls."

I wish I could teach cadets. Make me an ROTC instructor. I’d show them that this is what your incompetence can lead to, so you better take this shit super fucking seriously and hone your craft. I’d tell them that. 600 on the ACFT wouldn’t have prevented this but hard work and intellect could have.

This is about the population of Iowa.

NEWS: This morning, Maryland lawmakers, including Sens. Chris @vanhollen.senate.gov and Angela @alsobrooks.senate.gov made an unannounced visit to an ICE holding facility in Baltimore. They are scheduled to talk about what they saw soon here: www.cbsnews.com/baltimore/ne...
VanHollen says ICE staffing is ramping up in Baltimore. "We need to do what the people in Minneapolis did." We need to bring witness and accountability to them, he says.
Donald honors the American troops he cheated out of a future by cheating at golf.
Shrooms may have been consumed …
Evangelical fundamentalists have been stacking the chaplaincy (and the officer corps) for decades. While a larger percentage of enlisted troops are religionless and/or non-fundy than their civilian counterparts, the chaplaincy is overwhelmingly fundamentalist. That’s what need to change.

If “Christian conservatives” REALLY believe the mythology, they’d welcome nuclear fire and let prayer shield them …
oh just a thought if your plan for overthrowing the Iranian government depends on the Iranian public rising up, you likely shouldn't have defunded the American government run news agency that speaks in Farsi.
Visitors to the Capitol in Washington now have a visible reminder of the siege there on Jan. 6, 2021, and the officers who fought and were injured that day. n.pr/40PPmk6
After 3 years of being blocked/delayed by creepy insurrectionist Mike Johnson and fascist republicans, this Jan 6 honorary plaque meant to honor hero officers was installed at the US Capitol quietly at 4 am. It was required by law to be installed in March 2023. Shameless.
The very definition of “asshat.”
The first I heard about him having assaulted someone who worked for Tesla, they made it sound like he might've been an anti-Tesla protestor. Nope! He was a Tesla employee.
It’s about time someone said it out loud on a national news show.
Major Gen. Paul Eaton (ret.) — on Trump’s interest in putting boots on the ground:
“We have a situation where someone called a malignant narcissist is unfortunately drifting into a state of dementia that is difficult to manage.”

Marine vet whose forearm was snapped by a senator has been DISAPPEARED by the US government.

Karoline Leavitt: It doesn't matter if Russia is helping Iran kill American troops.
What a breathtakingly twisted White House.
Wow. Bovino can READ!?!
Damn straight … it will, however, possibly hit 80F here next week … weather weirdness.
Reminder that he called veterans "suckers and losers" and still the "support the troops" crowd voted for him again. Only so he could get more killed.
I want to know Secretary Noem's plan to stop masked ICE and CBP agents from killing American citizens like Renee Good and Alex Pretti. We can enforce our immigration laws without terrorizing American citizens and immigrant communities.
People who believe in an imminent Rapture/Armageddon don't have anything invested in what happens to you here on Earth. You are irrelevant to them and will be treated accordingly.
American soldiers are being killed because the president doesn’t want you to know that he raped little children for decades. And if I’m wrong, sue me, asshole.
