Damn, that's ugly!

I don't think she wants anything to do with the Vances, lol.

I've noticed it as well and figured she was staying close so she would be revered like Jackie (as if!) when he kicks. Needs not to be estranged to garner all the honors and attention.

Ahhh yes, she works for an administration that is the paragon of virtue and truth.

He doesn't care. There is enough oil left for his lifetime and any consequences will come after his death. Only cares about himself, certainly not his kids or grandkids.

They simply don't care. It's not as if it's happening to them. Cruelty is the point.

Time to go to bed, Grandpa, you're sundowning again and are so out of touch you don't even know who was president Jan6- despite your speech at the Eclipse egging them on. There would have been no Jan 6 if Biden had been in office. Same with the lockdowns during covid- that was YOU.

Be grateful you are getting any kind of band-aid. Farmers aren't the only ones hurting in this economy, and many of those hurting are paying for your bailout. Like so many fired by Trump policies, get another job. At least you have land worth a lot of money. And thank the president you voted for.

He is an authoritarian, just not very good at it.

If you feel facts are biased against you, be a better person.

Not just in decades...The Roberts Court has surpassed Roger Taney by a mile.

I think you just made my point about the rule of law no longer meaning anything.

mruelberg.bsky.social @mruelberg.bsky.social · 1d

Thanks for the article. What a clown show this administration is, but unlike clowns they are tragic. Dedicated servants will probably go back. Too bad they just can't tell Dementia Don and his minions to FO. The public appreciates their service, however.

That doesn't make those who answered the draft less worthy. I don't personally know any whom were drafted that were happy about it. The difference is, unlike Trump, they didn't buy or lie their way out of it. If your Country said it needed you, you responded or broke the law.

Nor did I, but I guess it's what happens when a sociopathic liar is elected. Underlings follow by example.

As an old woman I sure as hell would be kicking too if masked thugs rammed me and then started pulling me out of my car. Who'd to really say they aren't part of some sex trade? Seems more credible to me cuz I grew up believing law enforcement were polite and showed ID and weren't masked.

mruelberg.bsky.social @mruelberg.bsky.social · 1d

It boggles my mind how they just skate over the fact that tens of thousands of innocent women and children were slaughtered and starved. Absolutely nothing to be proud of in that.

They answered the call to service when drafted because they respected the rule of law, something the current commander in chief did not.

No, we once had values. My father served during WW2 and my brothers during Vietnam. The founders believed in this noble experiment and generations since gave their lives and service. Experiment failed when the public elected a sociopathic liar and look what has slithered out from under their rocks.

Notice they said SERIOUS flaws that they don't want to fix. Not just plain old flaws but they want to keep those with serious flaws in the air. I guess until they drop.

Dementia Don thinks he is Mad King George. F that, indeed. I'll be there on the 18th.

mruelberg.bsky.social @mruelberg.bsky.social · 1d

If anything, the Trump administration, the Supreme Court and the GOP congress have proven to me that neither the Constitution nor the Rule of Law means a damn thing in this country. It has been a myth.
