I miss the days when a President would immediately be removed for suggesting a foreign nuclear power “take out” Los Angeles. Shame on everyone in the US Government allowing this dangerous sham Presidency to continue.

Hegseth also removed the olive branches, a traditional symbol of wishing peace, from the Department of Defense seal. This, in addition to changing the name to "The Department of War," shows the dangerous belligerency that comes from appointing a frat bro who values testosterone over statesmanship.

We need to start calling it GLOBAL WARMING again. "Climate Change" was a term pushed by the oil industry to make it seem less dangerous.

Pete Hegseth gave a speech in front of a backdrop that almost perfectly matches Nazi imagery. Meanwhile, Trump calls opponents “vermin” who he will “root out,” and says the blood of our country is being poisoned. We are far past left vs right. Our choice is democracy or fascism.

Roberts needs to be impeached and removed for violating his oath and engaging in severe misconduct. Then he should face federal criminal indictments for treason and corruption. Make an example of him.

Way too suspicious and convenient: “He said the retaliation had already wrecked his life, and that he was about to publish more,” wrote German author and former financial journalist Oliver Janich in a social media post on X. “Then he was dead at 57. They called it suicide. I don’t buy it.”
