It was nearly a really cool way to own the VP.

Dang.

We have received word from @homelandgove.bsky.social that it was FBI Director Patel’s aim.

Next time don’t put stuff there!

He’s been instructed to stay away from the missile guidance systems. We’ll be in touch @governor.ca.gov

We love our Marines and owe a debt of gratitude to Camp Pendleton, but next time, the Vice President and the White House shouldn’t be so reckless with people’s lives for their vanity projects.

Clearly Trump et al consider their VP and Sec of Defense to be expendable.

Well, in fact, they are. 🤔

Why don't the democrats sue the republicans for refusal to follow our constitution?

How many times have repubs obstructed constitutional intent now? Starting with SC justice nominations?

It's time for a great big reckoning.

Ruh-roh! Mama gonna give a spanking! 🏓

Former career DOJ attorney Erez Reuveni witnessed Trump’s officials lying to a Judge and refused to do the same.

So Emil Bove fired him — now he‘s blowing the whistle on the rampant abuse of power at Trump’s DOJ.

DOJ whistleblower Erez Reuveni says Emil Bove told him, 'those planes need to take off no matter what, and if some court should issue an order preventing that, we may have to consider telling that court 'fuck you.'

Reuveni: It is the highest, most egregious violation of the lawyer's code of ethics.

The reason he hates the protests is because it embarrasses him in front of the other dictators. He wants to rule over us like Kim Jong Un or Putin. It blows my mind these people thought we were going to just roll over for them. They misread kindness as weakness.
