He is just making things up, and the whole world knows the truth. The United States has never looked weaker because of these lies and his complete lack of a plan or strategy. Wars cannot be won with gaslighting and Truth Social posts.
Damnit.

Professors will recognize this kid as the student who didn't do the reading but still has very strong opinions about how it's all "bullshit," except this time he's not the callow student who's going to fail your course, he's the reviewer who's going to cancel your grant.
Still waiting patiently for Bluesky to get an edit button. 😂

"Though jury selection can often take weeks in a capital case, Pitchford’s jury was chosen in just one day."
“This is already a disproportionately white jury for the population of this county. It appears to be a pattern of disproportionately challenging African-American jurors.”

Another word you might use for it is "looting".
"This appears to be the first administration to take such widespread advantage of taxpayer-funded military housing to accommodate political appointees who do not have a direct connection to the military..."

Trump: let's release the MLK files, The JFK files, the presence of UFOs. That will shut em up.

If Republicans made it easy and free to obtain suitable ID, it would be one thing. As it is Republican voter suppression also includes widespread efforts to make it much harder, more time-consuming, and more expensive to obtain ID.
I don’t think unconditional surrender is imminent.
So has anybody seen ANY active duty military members defying orders since this war is OBVIOUSLY unconstitutional?

So much for the government "caring" about Vets. 🤷♀️ They wanna institutionalize homeless vets against their wishes. This comes after they did mass layoffs at the VA.
I used to work for the government. In order to justify budgets, bad actors overspend at the end of the fiscal year. So the administration spent $93B on bullshit to justify massive Pentagon budget proposals, all while gutting health care and food assistance. www.the-independent.com/news/world/a...

A recent example of a MAGA Christian woman talking to me days after my husband was in a bad wreck:
"Why arent you with him at the hospital? If it were my husband, he would WANT ME."
What part of "totaled car and living over an hour away from the hospital while having pets" dont you understand? 🤯
"There are scant details about how the DOJ decided which people should be on the list.

Kim: The vast majority of what I hear in these classified briefings can be said publicly, but they intentionally do this to as a tactic to be able to prevent the American people from hearing and questioning what it is that they're doing.
