Take two bullets serving in the American military, get deported. Take five dishonest deferments to dodge the draft, get elected president. There is something terribly wrong with this country.

So unemployment up. Jobless claims up. Inflation up. GDP down. Dollar plummeting. More wars abroad. Soldiers on the streets at home. By every objective metric, this administration is a disaster.

It's tough to refer to someone as a criminal if you've given them no due process to determine whether they're a criminal. Like if you get arrested and get a trial and are convicted of 34 felony counts. That's due process. You can call that guy a criminal.

They’re not going to get out of this by playing semantics. Sending detailed information about an upcoming military strike on unclassified channels (and even to the wrong guy) is wrong, reckless, and obviously a threat to American troops.

INCREDIBLE Ruling! Judge Reyes just ruled that transgender people have served honorably in the military, judges Trumps trans military ban - which states trans people are inherently dishonorable - as unconstitutional and motivated by animus. Trans military members may continue to serve.

Keep this in mind: Elon Musk’s net worth is tied to Tesla stock—he uses it as collateral for loans. Tesla lost 48% of its value in months—sales are down, investors don’t trust him, and JPMorgan says there’s no historic comparison. Hype built his empire. Reality is catching up.
