Pete Hegseth just unveiled six initiatives he says will reshape the U.S. military for years. Lt. Gen. @markhertling.bsky.social takes them one by one and asks the question Hegseth still hasn’t answered: How, exactly, will any of this make America safer? lnk.thebulwark.com/4jpnDBF?utm_...

The good news is that if the pneumonic plague does spread and become serious problem we have RFK Jr and Dr. Oz in charge of public health to find us some miracle cures from Trump donors for $99.99 because Trump only appoints the finest people to critically important jobs.

Hear me out. All police misconduct cases paid out of police pension funds. Because as a citizen I'm really sick of public funds being used to pay these AND having to worry about a cop doing something shitty to me because they have no accountability.

Susan Collins cannot be trusted with voting on our next Supreme Court Justice. She voted for the three justices that overturned Roe v. Wade. And she's going to do the same damn thing if Alito retires unless we win this election.

With respect, if you want to be a pro-democracy network you shouldn’t take stolen taxpayer money to air authoritarian propaganda. Give the money back and say no.

MAGA says they only want judges born in the US. Fine. Start with Trump’s BFF, Aileen Cannon, who was born in Cali, Colombia. Let’s see how long that rule lasts.

Genuinely an insane paragraph from Sam Alito. “Voter fraud is real and scary and we have to stop it, so the fact that implementing Trump’s mail ballot rule will disenfranchise millions is legally irrelevant.” Brain melted. A right-wing podcaster in a robe. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25p...

As for the equities, the Government has a strong interest
in enforcing the rule, and implementing it will also “en-
hance the visibility of Federal Ballot Mail” in order to better
detect election fraud. 91 Fed. Reg. 54972. On the other side
of the balance, the plaintiff States invoke the practical ef-

enough to convince me to deny the application.

Biden took the short stairs up to Air Force One instead of the long stairs and it was headline news. Trump publicly fantasizes about conquering neighboring countries and their 170+ million people and the news media will hardly mention it.

We are a broken nation. Hundreds of thousands of Haitians were living and working legally, paying taxes, and contributing. Haiti remains wholly unsafe. But Trump hates Haitians, and the White House wanted videos of Black people in chains, so they stripped them of status and turned on the cameras.
