Thank you to the organizers of today's wildly successful (and peaceful) "No Kings" rallies. You did an amazing job. And thanks to all the millions of people who showed up to give us faith. And a special shout out to the White House regime and the Speaker of the House for all the free publicity!

Keep in mind that this is taken from a Disney production, one that just this week won an Emmy.

It may sound vaguely apropos.

Pure testosterone fantasy.
Trump & Hegseth promise “maximum lethality” that’s MAGA speak for they plan to murder a lot of civilians around the world. This is the sort of thing we imprison* people at the Hague for. Hegseth doesn’t have immunity.

“Maximum lethality. Not tepid legality. Violent effect, not politically correct.”
