So now he wants to obscure the judgment of troops and turn them into hyped-up killers. And what of the women? When is it enough? Generals? Former and current. Will you speak? Military doctors? Former Secys of Defense? Former Commander-in-Chiefs? Mothers of active duty troops? Isn’t it ENOUGH??

The new report on FBI Director Kash Patel cites more than TWO DOZEN sources describing his leadership as a “management failure” and national security risk. The White House and DOJ didn’t deny the allegations, but deflected. Patel was the only one who issued a direct rebuttal. That speaks volumes.

🚨 Trump just signed an executive order creating a national voter list — a direct attack on voting rights, and clearly unconstitutional. This is voter suppression. He’s cracking down on mail-in ballots that millions rely on — including up to 60% of seniors over 65. #TrumpVotedByMail

That millions of people at #NoKings yesterday isn't today's New York Times' headline is shameful. That the only mention is way down the page, doesn't mention the number of protesters, but does talk about Pro-Trump counter-protesters, like that was a factor, seems intentional. Don't trust the NYT.
