Shame on Trump and the heartless GOP.

To all military
You Deserve Better than Trump, Hegseth, and Republican Senators and Congressional Representatives
They refuse to negotiate
And truly don't care
Democrats are in DC ready
Republicans no where to be found
This is TRUMP'S SHUTDOWN

Short Thread...

It's been a full week since DHS issued a press release claiming TEN CARS ambushed them—and have since:
•charged ZERO of those alleged 10 drivers
•arrested ZERO of those alleged 10 people
•filed ZERO reports of alleged property damage, &
•offered ZERO evidence of their claim

These are violent undisciplined people (ICE) who have been given free reign. We are all at risk- they did not even verify her identity or citizenship status b/f doing ANYTHING in this video. I think no one should be treated this way- but in any case being a citizen is clearly no protection.

Dr. Oz can't sit still. He must know the dude is nuts- how can he stand by like this?

Is it okay with people that he lies like this? I mean- go to Google maps and look in real time. SO easily disproved even if you don't live here. Why don't people care?

So ICE is anti-prayer? Do people understand this? They are not allowing PRAYER in a public space as an expression of speech.

True warrior mentality- curated rugged look in, ragged out! One can only assume the best historic military figures had extensive clandestine nighttime beauty rituals. Thank goodness, under Trump, FINALLY generals will be freed to tiktok their favorite skin care tips and tricks!

They have always had provocateurs at these things- sounds like they are really worried about this one- and calling them up.

So he has benefitted from rural hospital care and does not care to see it supported? Cool, cool.

If he is awarded the prize it has no meaning. He is literally blowing up random fisherman.

ginkowest.bsky.social @ginkowest.bsky.social · 2d

He does not care. His actions say that, whatever his reponse actually was.

When you account for the longterm losses- to research, privacy, employee talent and institutional knowledge, international reputation, etc., - the picture gets even bleaker. It was a total clusterf*ck and we will be paying for Musk's ego based savior-cosplay for a LONG time.

I think he just said they have ideas that neither Republicans or Democrats want... I mean, how is that helpful to anyone? How is that leadership? He wants Rs to get a prize for thinking up things even they wouldn't pass?

This whole administration thinks the Constitution is a right the President has that no one else does.

As I observed in my Substack Round Up this past week, the endgame of the military strikes against drug cartels in international waters is to lay the groundwork to use lethal military force against Americans at home. Pay attention open.substack.com/pub/asharang...

Trump is following almost to the letter Hitlers path to power. Sending the SS into Democratic neighborhoods to start violence and then blaming it on Democrats is classic Weimar Republic Germany. Now he wants to start jailing opposition leaders.

Note she did not sue for Libel- because then she would have to prove it was false. Instead just using power and back channels to suppress it. In this litigation-happy family, it really is remarkable and telling that this is the route they took.

Pritzker: "He wants to militarize major cities because he wants us to get used to the idea of troops on the streets. I believe he's gonna post people outside of polling places and if he needs to in order to control those elections, he'll assume control of the ballot boxes & count the votes himself"

Hey- remember guys, you might not want to eat out because you might not get paid. Rs are really into stealing our health insurance, so they have shut down the government.

She JUST saw the man in the chicken outfit when the reporter pointed him out? There are only like 20 people there! And she is in charge of security? Definitely looks scared of the war zone she is in, in skinny jeans and a tee.
