Yes, subordinates must always seek approval from their leaders.

That takes a lot of determination and practice! Congratulations on a job well done.

Ever the kind and empathetic leader.

Well at least there’s something I’m good at!

What concerns me even more is the complicity of the military whose UCMJ specifically states that if an order is illegal you don’t have to obey it. So much for honor in the military.

As I’ve posted hundreds of times - they’re owned by billionaires and only their views get aired no one else’s. Dem’s have been fiddling while our democracy is burning. It’s too bad we as a country can’t elect women like other first world countries. Just think if we had elected Hillary or Kamala.

This is what happens when billionaires run MSM. Do you really think they care about the truth or their bottom line profits. That along with Citizens United and the former SCOTUS is why we are in this situation.

You can’t reach people unless you give them something that directly effects their income, healthcare or children. I’m tired of saying the same thing on Bluesky & X for years. Need Dem’s or Ind’s talking to people so they can get both sides. Same way AOC & Bernie did but it has to be consistent.

Replying to Boebert would imply that she has the requisite knowledge to understand your reply, which is impossible considering her GED.

This is absolutely alarming!

@isaiahrmartin.bsky.social is running for Congress as a Democrat & this is how he was treated as a candidate.

Isaiah was brutalized by Texas law enforcement.

This is terrifying!

Please share.

IMHO the MAGA crowd only likes putting down others. It seems like a sport to them. It’s always been easier for them to demean than do something useful. Doing something useful is way too hard for them.

Yes, nice old time β€œswitch board” prior to Stepper Switches. Just like in the old movies.

This has been happening for over a decade or more and no one seems to give a damn. Not even the Dems have worked on it.

PSA - In any organization (NOAA) when someone in charge of a section of a company or federal organization is leaving lit is their duty to inform subordinates of emergency procedures. This was either bypassed by HQ or someone didn’t do their due diligence.

IMHO This is a religious war perpetuated by the South’s hatred of losing the Civil War. That’s why there are so many citizens and immigrants of color being sent to essentially concentration camps. This underlying hatred is what I felt throughout my years in the south.

From what I’ve been told by Indians, when they start making good wages they’re let go for a younger, lower waged person. That’s why I knew Indians working in the USA from Kenya, and in Oman and Qatar.

I’m beginning to think the GOP’s theme song is Trump singing β€œUnder my thumb”, but am so happy that by some miracle his cadre is forming a revolt as they realize that if his bbb passes they will never survive.

They pick the weakest most defenseless to abuse as it makes them feel tough. These actions make them feel powerful even though they’re impotent.

Ex-cops never leave law enforcement they just go the different PD’s. That’s something sorely missing from law enforcement. However I agree with your premise.

Hopefully some people with facial and body recognition software can virtually unmask these animals. Then we can expose them to real sunlight and watch them wither.
