I am seldom at a loss for words, but the juxtaposition of Mike Lee mocking the murders and attempted murders of the Hortmans and the Hoffmans, then asking for prayers for Kristi Noem is breathtaking and defies description in any language.

I'm no lawyer, but it seems like discussing war plans in Signal outside a SCIF is maybe just a little bit worse than using a private server to send emails that weren't even marked as classified. But what do I know.

As Musk complains about people "burning down Tesla", he continues to try and burn down government agencies and employees who are helping people. Musk is endangering millions of lifes with his actions, and he worries about the damage to his crappy Matchbox cars made for adults.

Police are investigating a report of fake ICE agents targeting a Ukrainian grocery store. An SUV with an “ICE” decal circled Sunday—then bolted when security showed up. These impostors are appearing nationwide,, preying on people already living in fear— in the shadows. It’s calculated and cruel.

Now a second Destroyer off the west coast of Mexico - The reason that the Trump regime is using Navy ships instead Coast Guard Cutters is that the Destroyers have Tomahawk missiles (and the further material I know about Tomahawk capabilities is classified, so I'm not revealing it on Bluesky).

Navy Plans to Deploy Second Destroyer to Patrol Waters Off US and Mexico This Week
An official, who was given anonymity to discuss military plans, told Military.com that a second destroyer will deploy from the West Coast, joining the USS Gravely.

Get ready for a picture of Kristi "Puppy Killer" Noem decked out in a Navy uniform with medals she didn't earn on the bridge of this ship... Why a Navy Destroyer instead of a Coast Guard Cutter that would normally do these duties? Because a Destroyer has Tomahawk missiles to shoot into Mexico.
