Think about what’s transpiring with Canada. Then think… DoD gave Army III Corps new orders to focus on “defense” (we don’t do defense) of Western Hemisphere instead of defense of Europe against Russian incursion. So, are we now defending against Canada and Mexico, or “liberal insurrectionists”?🤡

Listening Hegseth I believe we are witnessing the psychological game-ifying of war. Hegseth’s lack of seriousness suggests it’s a game, not a serious war w/ consequences, death & destruction, real costs. It as if he’s playing “Call of Duty”. It’s just fun for him.

I’m expecting MAGA with regime support to establish summer camps much like the American Nazi party operated in NJ in the 1930s. I’m certain they’ll want to further indoctrinate a broader following & align with extremists like their Nazi predecessors. Camp Norland, 1937-41 rallied with the KKK.

Response to Cornyn. You’re doing a great job as a Trump flunky, a minion of a despot. Your effort to dismantle constitutional law will be memorable. Keep up the great work so that the judiciary is completely, and hopeless powerless. It’s representatives like you that will keep corruption popular.

From Almeidas: Trump then went to UAE to give a speech, and said this: ‘My first week, eggs were up 200%. Now, they are down 97%, 98% from where they were.’ $2.50 to $7.50 (that’s +200%). $7.50 down 98% is $0.15/dozen. Math not a Trump strong point.
