Oh give me a fucking break. What's the fucking answer? Surrender? Throw our hands up. I can see why you're using an anonymous handle.

I guess we will see. But I am really not down with the "oh well can't be beat" surrender monkey stuff. No offense but this is why Democrats keep losing. They surrender before the war even starts.

Lindsey Graham's WORST NIGHTMARE Hits before Election
YouTube video by MeidasTouch Lindsey Graham's WORST NIGHTMARE Hits before Election

Lindsey Graham is the face of the surrender of the Republican Party to Donald Trump. He got a run for his money last time he ran and now he has another one on his hands. @drannieandrews.com ran for Congress before and now she is taking on Lindsey. I got her In the Hot Seat on @meidastouch.com

This is not an Onion article. It's real and true. "MechaHitler" is now in a contract with the Department of Defense under Pete Hegseth.

The "Values" of Pete Hegseth's DOD Two stories tell wildly different tales of what the real values of the Department of Defense have become under Hegseth's woefully incompetent and malignant leadership

Two stories today show just how much the Department of Defense is rotting from the head down under Pete Hegseth's failed leadership. The damage is getting worse. He must go. My latest post.

Virginia Foxx got on your radar when she told reporters to shut up when Mike Johnson stumbled into the Speaker's office. She hasn't gotten any better. She has a second time opponent taking her on this cycle. I sit down In the Hot Seat with Chuck Hubbard exclusively on @meidastouch.com. Check it out!

Because of what’s happening in my own country, I feel inexorably drawn to the history of the Third Reich.

It’s not because I think Trump is Hitler. He’s not. It’s because that period (1933-1945) taught us so many important lessons about human nature that are relevant today. 1/🧡

They got people killed. Stop tip toeing around it because people are still being recovered. The next storm could literally be tomorrow. They say on their hands and only did a Facebook post even after the river gauge showed a massive spike. The job of public officials is to serve the public. Period.
