"Inadvertently..." I can't imagine how braindead someone has to be to believe that BS. But, the fact remains that millions of MAGA saw the inadvertent footage, never saw the apology. If they did, they'd ignore, or excuse it. The authoritarian playbook in practice. Do it. Tell lies if caught. smh

IDK why anyone would be shocked by the lack of coverage of the school bombing by Corporate media. Their task is to convince the public that all is going well. Bombing a school and the obvious aftermath is not good optics for the Fat Fascist Felon's agenda. Glad we have sources for facts like Meidas.

Breaking military news from AP.

"The United States and Ecuador conducted joint military operations against β€œdesignated terrorist organizations in Ecuador,” U.S. Southern Command announced on Tuesday."

The Fat Fascist Felon is flooding the zone hoping to bury the Epstein issue. Won't happen.

Could? Anyone that regularly follows current affairs will be very surprised if it doesn't. In fact; it appears that the Fat Fascist Felon is desperate for that to be the result of his illicit actions.

I know. I tried to be nice. Haven't responded in a while. And, won't. Said what I had to say. On the entire matter. I keep getting drawn back by my notifications. πŸ™‚

I consider everything I say or write before doing it. In this instance, it is merely an appropriate descriptive adjective. You'd likely object to someone stating they enjoyed a nice fat steak for dinner. Sorry you have a problem. Take it elsewhere. Your distress is duly noted, clearly misdirected.

I don't hate anyone. Especially over a weight, or any other physical or mental, issue.

That title, Fat Fascist Felon, refers to a very specific person. It's quite apt. And, I will continue to use it. Sorry if you, or anyone, is offended. Try considering context in addition to specific words.

AP reported that oil prices are rising in early trading due to the conflict in Iran. Is anybody surprised? How many more billions will the oil moguls rake in? How much will gas prices rise this week? Where are the reports known to be missing from the Epstein files? So many questions! So little time!

I'm certainly not surprised. Other than by the fact that so many fell for, and are still falling for, his con.

Trump himself called it a war. As if anyone with a brain could not discern that for themselves. He must have been trying to reach those like you.

The Fat Fascist Felon will attempt the same thing.

Democracy is dying in America.

ICE is a murderous secret police force. We’re about to bomb Iran for Israel. Your kids are shot at in school daily, and pedophiles run our government. There’s no healthcare, and your food is poisonous.

We need real leaders - not career politicians.

SCOTUS rightly ruled that Trump's Tariffs are illegal. Now everyone is filling social media with arguments about tarriff refunds. And, what a mess that will be.

F that stupidity. They WERE in force before the SCOTUS decided they ARE illegal. So be it. No refunds required. No more tarriffs paid.

It was/is inevitable. It's been the IT money culture for at least 50 years. Profit over product. Near zero regulation. To hell with any consequences. The overwhelmed Courts can deal with any negative fallout. Just update the product and keep selling. AI will, eventually, beat them at their own game.

Had a good laugh when this notification came up. Maybe you will too. Maybe not.

Whoever said "There are none so blind as those who refuse to see." was correct. But, based on current times; "stupid" seems more apt than "blind".

The historic parallels are painfully obvious to anyone with even a basic knowledge of History. But, this is NOW! HERE in America in 2026. This is Trump, the MAGA Party, and MAGA thugs. Not; Hitler, the Nazi Party, or Gestapo. They're dead. GOP is dead. Dems? It is MAGA destroying America. Period!

Let's stop calling ICE's activity "immigration"/"law" enforcement and call it what it actually is: Ethnic Cleansing.

If I were a Minnesotan, peacefully protesting that obscenity being perpetrated upon my State/Community by the Fat Fascist Felon & he invoked the Insurrection Act; I'd give him one.

BREAKING: Massive Crowds of Anti-ICE protesters in Minneapolis, Minnesota as we speak. The tide is turning. America is Fed Up.

Americans should be fighting back against what is happening in this country. Having masked, secret police shooting people, breaking into homes and cars, is NOT normal.

The more the Fat Fascist Felon calls everyone that disagrees with him "low-IQ", and brags about "aceing" a cognitive test, the more I'd love to see how well he would do on the standardized battery of tests given 8th graders every year to test their, and their school's, progress. 😁

One can only hope. And, wish for Jack Smith as the prosecutor. As destitute as I currently am I'd scrape up the money for what would likely be the most watched PPV Reality Show of, at least, the decade.πŸ˜€

Once again, Trump creates an economic problem due to his efforts to enrich himself and his fellow Deep State buddies and then bails himself out with a $14B Farmer Bailout using the taxes collected from hard-working Citizens. Including those Farmers. It's NUTS! smh

The bigoted Fat Fascist Felon says he wants Somalians out of our Country. In reality he and his fellow Fascist loving traitors want to remove anyone who isn't white and Christian. Personally, I'd rather keep the Somalians, & every other immigrant of any & all races & creeds; then deport the Trumps.

I, for one, find it both appropriate and humorous that Pete Hegseth is officially a SOW (Secretary of War). It would be great if that acronym were applied, and its mammalian pronunciation emphasized, whenever he is referenced.

Anyone agree?

I have no difficulty believing that the general order from on high was something like "blow them out of the water and leave no survivors". It's a little harder to believe that a specific order was given to go back and kill the survivors. And, that it was obeyed. Certainly plausible under SOW Pete.
