When Trump demands we start the calendar years over staring with his birth, how many MAGA will endorse this?

That would make this the year 79.

My home town, far from the west coast, still forced all of Japanese decent to be east side of the river that divides the town.
Still don’t know how that helped make anyone safer, but that’s how they contributed to the war effort.

You are either on Team Release Everything (except for victim info), or you are a pedo protector.

And everyone satisfied with this obvious cover up is on Team Pedo Protector.

There is no middle ground.

That is who you are.

I find the world a little brighter when I find a like minded person in the world. So many around me support or even love him. I love when I meet a fellow vet that mocks him as much as I do.

Personally, I believe this is an appropriate response. However, I’m not demanding a Nobel Peace Prize. FISA prize, too.

Contrast that with shelling boats with no combat weapons systems when they can be interdicted? Not comparable. Inappropriate. Blockades, too.

As the Trump 2025 regime winds up their domestic surveillance on leftists anti “American” (anything critical of him and his programs) I think everyone who dislikes him should say so often on any online

Information overload is the enemy to intelligence.

Is there nothing he won’t lie about?

The “warrior dividend” does come from Tarriff money. It isn’t something new he is doing. It was pass with his BBB. It is supplemental housing allowance rebranded for Trumps aggrandizement.

Another lie. Many soldiers will see thru this stunt.

FOUR new deaths in ICE detention. That puts the total this year at 30 people dead; the highest in ICE's history and worse than even during the COVID years.

It's clear that the system is breaking down. Many of these are preventable deaths.
In the 90 minutes since I posted this, I've gotten two more death notifications.

ICE has a responsibility to take care of these people, something they are clearly disregarding. This is beyond horrifying. We must ensure dignity and humanity for detained people in this country.
Within 15 minutes today, I got two back-to-back notifications of deaths at ICE facilities.

28 people have died in ICE custody since Trump took office. These facilities are overcrowded & are putting their own profits over health and safety. We need oversight & accountability NOW.

Gymnastics for this guy.
FOX: If you cut something by 100%, the cost goes down to 0. If you cut it by 600%, the drug companies are actually paying you

LUTNICK: What he's saying is if a drug was $100 and you bring it down to $13, it's down 7 times

F: Not a 600% cut

L: But it's 700% higher price before. It's down 700% now

NEWS: According to a bombshell new report, Trump is far more afraid of being prosecuted for war crimes than he lets on. An Insider tells Reuters the U.S. is threatening sanctions unless the court agrees not to pursue cases against Trump, J.D. Vance, or Pete Hegseth. @meidaa.bsky.social

The Trump administration is trying to root out what it sees as rampant left-wing domestic terrorism, raising concerns among security experts and lawmakers that broad categories of Americans’ speech could come under surveillance.

Long after Trump is gone, the country will be reminded o er and over of his actions. One day history will judge him harshly and the GOP will face these kinds of reminders all the time. Every election will hear his name.

The GOP should pump the brakes on this or live with it for generations
Well, this is disgraceful. The Kennedy Center board (composed almost entirely of President Trump’s allies) voted on Thursday to change the name of the performing arts center to the Trump-Kennedy Center.

I think reform on the presidential pardon are the most important constitutional issue we face.
Its abuse has shown that one person shouldn’t have that much power.
There must be a check and balance to this loophole in the constitution. A built in legal coup is possible!

And actual act of war.
Against a country who has mustered zero military action against us.
Our constitution says only Congress can declare war. While they haven’t since WWII, it’s always been authorized by Congress even without a formal declaration.
