“Those that can convince you to believe absurdities can convince you to commit atrocities.” Voltaire

Mike doesn't want to swear in the new Congress woman.

When Hegseth went on his ‘fat troops & fat generals’ rant did he think about the BF% of an average Trump rally? Or has he ever seen the dude he was opening for? Donnie Meatloaf wears a ‘fn’ girdle.

basically everything about this is wrong and horrifying but I'm stuck on the absolute fucking chutzpah you'd need to lecture professional military personnel like this after you personally texted wildly classified war plans to the editor-in-chief of the Atlantic

Trump Gave the Military’s Brass a Rehashed Speech. Until Minute 44.

“We should use some of these dangerous cities as training grounds for our military,” the president of the United States said.

In Hungry, citizens are in the streets protesting Orban. They are emphatically saying to US citizens to fight for our democracy. They should know.

I agree

Now if they would get a memo on climate change and the impact on the economy through removing working immigrants.

Autocorrect mistake! I did not have the other side of the story. I apologize.

I didn't see what Columbia responded when I posted. I apologize for not double checking.

Columbia's President caved. Don't worry about coffee today.

Trump orders sanctions on Colombia after it refuses deportation flights Trump retaliates with steep tariffs and immediately revokes visas of Colombian officials after the nation’s president says his country will not accept U.S. deportation flights.

All the rubes who voted for Trump due to the price of eggs gonna be paying a lot more for coffee. The world is going to alienate US and turn to our allies and competitors.

Hudspeth should have a breathalyzer button on his desk.

Exactly why I have PTSD from his last reign. There is no bottom.

If you’re more concerned about keeping your job than keeping the nation safe, you shouldn’t be a Senator.

The Republicans know what kind of POS they voted in. They are putting the orange guy over their gut feeling. I do hope the military themselves get rid of him.

Disgusting

How much money are we spending on the military planes returning immigrants to their home countries. Also, are they even bothering to find out where those folks are from? Do they care? When is the last time they've lived in their 'home' countries?

BREAKING: The Senate has just voted to confirm Pete Hegseth, a drunken, out-of-control abuser, as the weakest Secretary of Defense in history.

This was the closest vote for SecDef, needing the weird couch guy to break the tie.

It's a sad day for America.
Hegseth is a DUI hire.

Hardly a surprise but it's still difficult to fathom the level of contempt Republicans have for servicemembers to allow this low-life untreated-alcoholic rapist TV show host with no qualifications and no redeeming qualities to be Secretary of Defense.

“Terrible things are happening outside. Poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart. Men, women, and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared.”

Marco Rubio’s parents were Cuban.

Neither were U.S Citizens when Marco was born.

Under Donald Trump’s executive order, his Secretary of State would not have been born a citizen.

What the ADL should have said in response to Elon Musk's salute As the Elon Musk controversy makes clear, the Anti-Defamation League ought to call out antisemitism on both the left and right.

He remains an international embarrassment.

wow

That was the deal with the Libertarian Party if they backed him. Why? I'm not sure.

For those saying it wasn't a Nazi salute.

Keep posting it. Keep sharing it.

I just want to point out, purely for the sake of historical accuracy and preservation, that Trump is inheriting a strong and growing economy today, thanks to Joe Biden.
