Mark Kelly: Pete Hegseth runs around on stage talking about lethality and the warrior ethos. That’s not the message that should be coming from the Secretary of Defense. He runs around on a stage like he’s a 12 year old playing army. It’s embarrassing.

A notorious drug dealer was pardoned, yet undocumented people who pick fruit, sell empanadas on the streets, and working menial jobs to provide for their families are a threat according to the Trump administration.

Really?

This is the Republican majority in Congress. Completely disinterested in looking into anything Trump is doing. Whatever he decides to do is fine with them and they won’t investigate or question anything. bsky.app/profile/atru...
Markwayne Mullin defends Trump pardoning Honduran president who was convicted of drug trafficking: "What the president is doing is always calculated. I haven't had a direct conversation with the president about it, but I do trust his natural reaction and his approach to foreign affairs."

I’m not even 50 yet & instead of progressing in a career I loved, I have to use all my time & limited energy to manage chronic pain & so many frustrating symptoms from progressive MS 😔

Remember the ringleader of prison torture at Abu Ghraib, Charles Graner? Was a corrections officer at a notorious prison in Pennsylvania where guards were repeatedly accused of abusing prisoners.
Sent to Abu Ghraib as a military prison guard.

Immigrants make up a significant proportion of all the country's doctors. New policies are making it harder and less appealing for foreign-born physicians to come to the U.S.
'Nobody wants to come': What if the U.S. can no longer attract immigrant physicians?

If you want to know why Hegseth is panicking about reminders that there is accountably for giving or carrying out illegal orders, it’s likely because he knows he has given illegal orders to murder people.
Hegseth order on first Caribbean boat strike, officials say: Kill them all
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth issued a verbal order to kill all crew members in the Sept. 2 strike on a suspected drug boat. Navy SEALs fired a second missile.
