Since this country was founded, our military has always had a strong moral compass. These men and women have taken an oath to uphold the Constitution of the United States. They MEAN it. God help Trump if he orders these soldiers to attack and kill fellow Americans...It won't end well for him.

We have armed secret police kidnapping people off the street based on the color of their skin.

When we win: we will haul them before a Senate committee. The masks will come off. There will be consequences.

George Stephanopoulos, who was a high level advisor to President Clinton, doesn't put up with MAGA bullshit...even from the "Vice-President". He cuts off Vance and sends him packing. This is what ALL journalism used to look like before MAGA billionaires owned legacy media.

If @jd-vance-1.bsky.social has never seen the videotape of Tom Homan accepting a $50k bribe (as he says in this clip), how can he possible know that Tom Homan did not commit a crime?

Aaron Rupar @atrupar.com · 16h

STEPHANOPOULOS: I didn't insinuate anything. I asked you whether Tom Homan accepted $50k as was heard on an audio tape recorded by the FBI in September 2024. You did not answer the question. Thank you for your time.

VANCE: No, George, I sai--

STEPHANOPOULOS: We'll be right back

Have a look at this map. These are the sites of the No Kings protest coming up on Saturday, October 18th. Still think we're outnumbered by MAGA? Get out there and protest. We only need about 12 million Americans to turn the tide. Won't you be one of them?

Yhe Constitution means everything to those of us in uniform. We live by it. We die by it. It is our Bible. You question that loyalty and you do so at your own peril as fat boy is going to find out first hand. We do not serve tyrannical authoritarians. We terminate them.

Pritzker: "If the Constitution means anything -- and I guess we all are questioning that right now -- the Insurrection Act cannot be invoked ... they just want troops on the ground because they want to militarize especially blue cities in blue states."

What are the odds Bari and Olivia subscribe to the “nothing before eight years ago” school of journalism?

Mayor Bill de Blasio, his administration threatened to be overwhelmed by a rift with rank-and-file New York Police Department officers, on Monday condemned the thousands of cops who turned their backs to him during a pair of funerals for slain police officers.

The Patrolmen's Benevolent Association
Riot, also known as the City Hall Riot, was a rally organized and sponsored by the Patrolmen's Benevolent Association of the City
of New York (PBA) held on September 16, 1992, to protest mayor David Dinkins' proposal to create a civilian agency to investigate police misconduct. Approximately 4,000 NYPD
officers took part in a protest that included blocking traffic on the Brooklyn Bridge and jumping over police barricades in an attempt to rush City Hall. Rioters were observed to be openly drinking, damaging cars, and physically attacking journalists from the New York Times on the scene. Rioters also chanted racial epithets towards the African-American Mayor Dinkins. The nearly 300 uniformed on-duty officers did little to control the riot.

In June of 1966, when complaints of increasing police brutality against minorities prompted Mayor John Lindsay to propose a civilian review board, an unauthorized voice came over the police radio: "Everybody to City Hall!" More than 5,000 off-duty cops mustered outside the building, the largest police gathering up to that time, to protest the possibility of outside scrutiny into the way officers conducted business.

It ain't fake. So, Trump is going to give Qatar an airbase in Idaho...Gee, is that the SAME Qatar that supports terrorist organizations like the Taliban? Oh, I think it is! Now Qatar can bomb the west coast of the United States back to the Stone Age before we can respond. GREAT idea, orange turd!

Aaron Rupar @atrupar.com · 17h

BARTIROMO: What is the function of this Qatar facility? People are wondering if this is an airbase. What are they developing in Idaho?

VANCE: This is largely a fake story

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion.

The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion.

Read that back.

When 400 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

Blue State AGs should open a multistate task force to investigate and prosecute every single assault and attempted murder. Haul them into court without their masks to face justice directly.

According the victim's attorney, body camera footage captured the officer saying, “Do something, bitch,” before leaping out of the car and shooting her multiple times. Another officer asked, “Hey, what happened?” The first pointed to his camera, “Hey, don’t speak. You’re good.”
