I feel for Erika because she lost her husband.

The immediate post-murder grifting is insane to me, though.

You guys wouldn’t see me for a long time if something happened to Mrs. Angry.

Rumors are that Hegseth and Patel could be out near the first of the year.

It sounds like the problem could be finding someone who is willing to debase themselves to take the spots.

I don’t think we’re there yet, but that entire NSS was a shitshow. The nationalism bullshit, abandoning the Middle East, a ‘mutually beneficial’ partnership with China.

It’s a complete 180 from traditional security policy, and it’s going to make us less safe if implemented.

In the US SECURITY PLAN Trump & GOP (they rubber stamp him) want "resistance to European DEMOCRACIES"as they become more dictatorial- will the regime start regulating access to the internet? & intermittently terminating (it for certain groups) like they do in Russia & NK?

What defense is available against preemptive pardons for all the clearly criminal elements of the current government?

Thankfully, most of that is handled by career folks who are consummate professionals and know what they’re doing.

The embarrassments are mounting at an alarming pace, but we are still able to defend ourselves.

As we pull away from allies, that will hurt our capabilities more and more, though.

The bad news and embarrassments for the White House just keep mounting.

Makes me worry who is minding the store, and by store I mean all the immediate national security threats.

Do you think we still have reasonable capabilities?

It’s wild to me that we’re even having to ask ourselves this question, and it’s worse that I don’t know the answer.

It’s literally in the Constitution, so it should be an easy case for them to rule on, but I have no faith in them.

They’re trying to relitigate 2016 in 2025 because they don’t want everyone talking about how Donald Trump raped little girls in the 1980s

Courts *can* compel them, but I don’t know if any of them actually will. I expect if it goes that route, the administration will try to delay as much as possible - and who knows what SCOTUS will do.

Re: Epstein, they’re grasping at straws. Charge Clinton if there’s evidence. We don’t care.

There hasn’t been enough appreciation for how thoroughly BENNIE THOMPSON humiliated FBI official GLASHEEN after he tried to sell the lie that ANTIFA is the top domestic terror threat.

The claim collapsed because it’s a cover.

They want our kids dead.

Brown University is the latest proof.

After Columbine, Sandy Hook, Parkland, and Uvalde, Trump and the GOP weakened gun laws and flooded the country with weapons. Most shooters used legal guns, under laws Republicans defend.

This isn’t failure — it’s policy. READ MORE ⬇️

Any time I comment on shootings in the US, I invariably get told that "you need guns to defend against tyranny".

* looks back over 2025 *

.... does "tyranny" mean something different over there?

The FBI is focused on immigration. The Department of HOMELAND SECURITY is wearing masks chasing roofers and abuela's around cities. No one is focused on actual terror. These crimes aren't being committed by undocumented immigrants no matter how much the Republican Doormat Congress and Trump say it.
Murphy: "This isn't shocking, bc over last year, Trump has been engaged in a dizzying campaign to increase violence in this country. He's restoring gun rights to felons, eliminated the WH office of gun violence prevention & stopped funding mental health grants & community anti-gun violence grants"
