Zanny Minton Beddoes ,(in the red jacket) is brilliant and anyone who engages in a debate with her about Europe is a fool. Besides, I completely with what she is saying in the clip. The security of Russia is a problem for Russia, who continues ro threaten Europe.

Typical Gestapo tactics by a fascist administration.

Whomever signed the search warrant needs to have that authority withdrawn. It was blantly evident that this was a malicious investigation by the fascists in the Trump administrarion.

The lady probably is correct. Trump's reaction to the mid-term elections is likely to be of historic proportions..

Trump is a Russian asset. He is willing to sell out the USA, NATO, Ukraine, and everyone else to please his master in the Kremlin. Whatever Putin has on Trump must be very damaging. Wonder if it has anything to do with young girls and boys.

Unbelievable that scum like these could get elected. What were the voters thinking?

waheid.bsky.social @waheid.bsky.social · 14/10/2026
Right. And they also should investigate the current Speaker of the House for malfeasance, lying, and being Trump's sock puppet.

Cassidy Huchinson has more moral courage than the top echelon at the Pentagon, including the office of the SecDef.

And yet he was re-elected! The root cause of our dysfunctional government is not politicians, it's the voters.

The people who will vote for Paxton will then go home and complain about how corrupt and dysfunctional their government is. The problem is the voters who find nothing wrong with incompetent, crooked politicians.

This shows the vulnerability of these data centers and the downside of excessive reliance on interconnected services.

Trump,the malignant narcissist, always identifies his personal likes and dislikes with the interests of our nation. This is arrogant. Many of us in this once-great nation realize that Trump's personal interests have nothing whatsoever to do with the nation's interests.

Yes, but what about the voters whose intellect is that of a root vegetable? Our country has becoming more and more stupid every year and I've been complaining about for >20 years. Read the news any day to see the evidence.

I don't disagree with Butttigeg's goal, but important to recall that such a change would require an amendment to the Constitution. Such amendments are difficult. In this case, the smaller and less populous states probably would not support it.

Yes, and We The People are painfully aware of some of you deals. So are the bankruptcy courts, various contractors who were "stiffed," Ukraine, and some former allies ,(e.g., Canada).

Absolutely correct! Hegseth's primary skills are bootlicking and gaslighting.

Exactly. The "thou shall not" statements in the Constitution are aimed at government agencies. See also the 10th Amendment

I am of the opinion that the FSB or GRU has kompromat on Trump that keeps him on a short leash. He dare not upset Putin or the government of Russia without the threat of the Russian files on Trump being released to the U.S. press.

Markwayne Mullin is a fascist moron who should be forbidden from any employment in the federal government.

These soldiers showed they have a conscience. Can we say the same about their officers and NCOs? It's painfully obvious that Hegseth has no conscience.

waheid.bsky.social @waheid.bsky.social · 12/10/2026
Hegseth seems to be saying that he and the rest of the Trump administration should be executed publicly. I have no objection to that.

waheid.bsky.social @waheid.bsky.social · 12/10/2026
Trump and his entire administration should be removed immediately for our safety and the preservation of the Constitution.

waheid.bsky.social @waheid.bsky.social · 12/10/2026
That's your opinion. I strongly disagree. It is very unkind to mock a woman for her appearsnce. It's the kind of thing that liberals criticize conservatives for.

Hard to understand how someone so pathetically inept became Vice President of the U.S. The only logical explanation is that whoever picked him was also inept.

The crisis at hand is that Stephen Miller is still working in the White House, still trying to destroy our democracy. Meanwhile, Katie hasn't a clue.

Someone needs to start investigating Blanche and the DOJ. I can only hope this is a top priority when the new Congress is seated in January.

waheid.bsky.social @waheid.bsky.social · 12/10/2026
Hegseth, like most Trump appointees is stupid, inept, arrogant, and rude.

waheid.bsky.social @waheid.bsky.social · 12/10/2026
The abandonment of Ukraine because Trump and Vance prefer to be associated with a Russian KGB agent is a disgrace. But Trump is a Russian agent and Vance is pathetically stupid, so Ukraine is being left to its own resources.

I deplore mocking women--any woman--for her appearance. It s not the kind of behavior for liberals.

I might be an outlier here, but I deplore mocking a woman for her appearance. I don't know the woman characterized and I don't know anything about her politics.

As a former firefighter, I salute the firefighters in Ukraine who bravely go about their duties while bombs and missiles are falling around them. Your magnificent performance should be celebrated.

I sincerely hope this is right, but don't let hubris cause liberals to relax the pressure against conservatives

Markwayne Mullin is as arrogant as Hegseth and nearly as stupid. When Hegseth is impeached Mullin should be next.

Trump has expressed his hate for NATO and his fondness for Putin and Russia early in his first term. Clearly, he is not only a Russian asset, but a Russian agent who is obligated to obey orders from Moscow. Trump is doing all he can to weaken and bankrupt the USA.

waheid.bsky.social @waheid.bsky.social · 11/10/2026
What about the voters who elected him and the enablers (e.g., Musk, Bezos, Zuckerberg, conservative Republican politicians. and dozens of rich white men)?

waheid.bsky.social @waheid.bsky.social · 11/10/2026
Mark Kelly as POTUS now, not 2028. The entire cult of Trump must be run out of town (or arrested!) for the safety of the country.

No question Stephen Miller is evil personified, but what does his appointment as Deputy Chief Staff tell us about the people that gave him this job and the power to unleash a private army of barbarians to terrorize our cities? It all goes back to Trump and his inner circle.

waheid.bsky.social @waheid.bsky.social · 11/10/2026
One of the things that made America great before Trump and MAGA wrecked it was a communal sense that morals, ethics, and the rule of law mattered. Reagan talked about a shining city on the hill. We will never get there by following conservstive Republicans whose only goal is power at any cost.

Why is it "shocking" for a major U.S. newspaper to call for Trump to be impeached? What is shocking is that other newspapers and cable news channels are not doing the same.
