arrives at a coherent answer.

In an incredible bit of timing, Boots is also set in 1990—the year to which Hegseth said he wants to wind back military training and standards, declaring current guidelines “woke garbage.”

so-called Secretary of War Pete Hegseth just last week. Yet while Hegseth, onstage before the nation’s top military brass, tried to answer the question with chest-beating machismo, insisting on “the highest male standard” and decrying “beardos” and “males who think they’re females,” only Boots

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED VIEWING: Based on a novel which is based on a true story.

“Becoming a man? What does that actually mean?” That’s the question posed at the start of Boots, Netflix’s new queer coming-of-age series set in a Marine Corps training program, but also one essentially posed by our new

Another one of Felon47’s fevered dreams: placing thislppp Albert Speer-inspired arch on the DC mall. Where is he getting the funds for all of these capital improvements? Oh, wait…..!

This move by Felon47’s unbelievable. Why is this necessary? It’s ridiculous.

Isn’t it about time that Putin ass-kisser & fascist stooge, Hungary’s Orban, leaker of European secret information to Russia, be taken to the woodshed & severely punished? He’s a deadly threat to European security, especially Ukraine. Traitor Orban needs to go. Then Felon47!!! 🇺🇦🇪🇺🇺🇸

Ms. Machado doesn’t truly understand the depth of the human debacle that is our President.

Wow…just wow!

The 2025 Nobel Peace Prize winner dedicated her award to Felon47 by hailing his “decisive support”.

“We Venezuelans recognize that just as we have given everything in our citizen struggle, the support of our genuine allies has been decisive,” said María Corina Machado.

I’m afraid

Uh, doesn’t this seem like a plain & simple case of tit-for-tat for our transactional goofus-in-chief?

The evil pedophilia charges never end within Felon47’s support circle.

Ms. Machado was named today in Oslo, Norway.

Thanks to the selection committee for not naming you-know-who as their winner!

And the Noble Peace Prize…..doesn’t go to Felon47!

Instead Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado won the Nobel Peace Prize.

The former opposition presidential candidate was lauded for being a “key, unifying figure in a political opposition that was once deeply divided — an

I hope it’s true because it’s about damn time those spineless GOPer MAGAts jump off his sinking ship!

The Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB) - the backbone of PBS and NPR's funding - is shutting down operations due to Felon47’s cuts.

This is the first time in nearly 60 years Congress - majority-controlled by MAGAts - has denied the CPB funding.

Tell Congress: Restore PBS and NPR Funding

Trump’s $1.1 billion cuts to PBS and NPR are already gutting access to independent, free media across the country. He is gutting public media and forcing his own narrative. I just signed a Common C...

Felon47 & MAGA are so stupid they either don’t know or, more likely, don’t give a fuck about what Americans make up their “designated terrorist organization” ANTIFA! May the gods give me strength to get through this Presidential term.

rob1949TX @rob1949.bsky.social · 6d

Before…..and after. Felon47 could paint himself purple, green or red, white and blue and he would still be the most horrible human being to ever serve as US President. Rotten to his very evil core.

Oh, hell, this man-child can’t get enough adoration as President. He outta be in prison where he’d get plenty of daily - even hourly - adoration as President Bitch! It’d make a must-see Fox reality TV show. Now about that prohibition against serving Presidents…..
