I’ve been many people, done many things. Besides my 30+ yr marriage to Carlton, most proud to have volunteered with the #OneInTeen #LGBTQ youth group in Nashville for 20 yrs. Was also part of #GeeksResist #DemCast prior to being banned from Musk’s Twitter.

A simple graphic to clarify why the MAGA “Peace” President invaded Venezuelan to detain its Head of State.
Foreign Presidents apparently can be tried in the US courts but not America Presidents.
Reminder that Trump recently pardoned another President convicted on Drug Trafficking charges.

Our corporate media always has a new word to avoid “fascism.”
Now it’s “expansionism,” which we’re seeing everywhere.

The MAGA GOP will support whatever Trump does, they have NO fixed moral positions!!
Will "non-interventionist" MAGA go along? Yup.
A new WaPo poll finds only 40% overall approve of the Maduro capture and only 37% say this was appropriate without Congress.
But 80% of Trump voters support the capture and 78% are fine with not going to Congress. 6/

If you’re a Democrat with any real power, this is how you do it. Jason Crow went on Fox News and didn’t posture, didn’t flinch, didn’t dodge. He brought facts on Venezuela and absolutely wrecked the host. This is how you speak. This is how you go on Fox. And this is how you ruin them.

Captain Mark Kelly earned his rank.
Now his decades of service are being attacked by a drunk and a draft dodger.
All because he reminded our military to stay true to their oath, his right as both a veteran and an American.

Can we please have Trump’s plan to have taxpayers reimburse oil companies for their costs in Venezuela put in an appropriations bill so representatives of the people can vote on the record whether they support that like the Founders intended? Congress still exists, right?

After Trump’s strike on Venezuela, some Europeans think he may now act upon his desire for Greenland
And that, which could spell the end of NATO, might happen without any military force - and perhaps with just a Truth Social post www.theatlantic.com/national-sec...

The GOP learned nothing from the Iraq invasion
OR learned the wrong lessons … that American blood is the cost of increased Oil companies’ profits.
Also, that many Americans are ok with spending HUGE amounts of money on military adventures, while telling us they won’t spend it on your healthcare!

Nixon insisted the bombing of Cambodia was just targeting Viet Cong outposts there and not meant to undermine its government, but the bombings destabilized the Lon Nol government and paved the way for the Khmer Rouge’s killing fields and the massacre of more than a million people.
NBC's sources said that "the potential mission in Mexico is not designed to undermine the Mexican government." But that's what it will do if the US is doing CIA drone strikes on Mexican soil over the objections of the president.
