A big lie (German: große Lüge) is a propagandatechnique. The expression was coined by Adolf Hitler, when he dictated his 1925 book Mein Kampf, about the use of a lie so "colossal" that no one would believe that someone "could have the impudence to distort the truth so infamously"

Maybe Hegseth and Trump could also send 500 National Guard members to Kentucky, to help administer pertussis vaccines.

Since saving lives is their thing.

If you are not old enough to remember #ThreeMileIsland I recommend this film.
Another case where a conspiracy is a real thing.

Living in Central PA a year after March 1979, I went to the huge protest where Joan Baez, Stephen Stills and others led the protest.

Just makes 498 more bored people hanging around. What should have 500 qualified people is the FBI anti-terrorist group Patel has decimated.

Trump probably furious suspect is an Afghan national and not a radicalized American lefty. Makes a lot of sense to bring in 500 more Nat Guardsmen to patrol one of the safest areas of DC.

Folks, two things can true at the same time.

These 2 National Guard members should not have been shot, and it's a disgusting act of violence. And, Trump + Miller have deliberately deployed them to incite division { violence. That's part of Miller's plan. They have no reason to be in our cities.
National Guard members should never have been deployed in Washington, DC.

PT. 2: Trump losing his bearings will only benefit puppet Vance, his handler Thiel (and the other Psycho tech bros), Miller, Vought, Leo and the architects of #Project2025.

Keep up the #resistance.
Don't put your marbles in the basket of Trump's demise.
#BoycottBlackFriday etc.
Trump is clearly losing his bearings, and there is no one in the White House who can calm him or get him to modify his actions or his provocative statements. Trump’s irrational and impulsive behavior is becoming particularly worrisome.

It's been like this since he came down the golden elevator. There were some people in 1st admin who held him back briefly.

I really hope Patel gets shit-canned. Not because some other Trump lackey would do a better job, but because he is such an insufferable, punchable douchebag. That "children's book" alone is worth the humiliation. I am really earning my angel's wings in my old age, huh?

I'd guess 90% of commenters here on Bluesky also suspect false flag or related occurrence behind the National Guard shooting. Ever since this...

The 66-page ruling Tuesday by Senior U.S. District Judge R. Brooke Jackson of Colorado is a comprehensive rejection of a tactic regularly used by ICE to meet quotas set by the Trump administration. (via @cprnews.bsky.social)
Court demands end to unjustified warrantless arrests, restricting a tool ICE frequently uses to detain immigrants
Unless reversed on appeal, it is likely to place a severe restriction on ICE’s operations in Colorado.

Will Hegseth and Trump also be in contempt for ordering more #NationalGuard to DC against court order?
BREAKING: With a contempt inquiry looming, DOJ has now named DHS Secretary Kristi Noem as the Trump official who approved transferring hundreds of people to a notorious Salvadoran megaprison, despite a federal judge’s order forbidding the removals.
DOJ Says Noem Made Final Decision on El Salvador Removals in Breach of Court Order

2 National Guard soldiers shot near Farragut Square in Washington, D.C. Heavy police presence, both victims injured, conditions unknown.

The reason we don't have gun reform is the NRA uses money they don't pay taxes on, to bribe Republicans not to.

These two things are true:
1) Shooting National Guard members is horrific and criminal.
2) So is putting National Guard members in harm’s way to score political points.

yes, last week:

Judge rules Trump’s DC National Guard deployment was illegal

One point:

"Cobb postponed the impact of her decision until Dec. 11 to give the Trump administration time to appeal her decision"

Smirking liar. Dastardly. Hard to watch. #fascism
We must resist this.
Pete Hegseth says Trump has asked him to add 500 more National Guard troops to Washington D.C.

It's unclear why he seems to be smirking throughout much of this.

Actually, all the new fillagreed gold stuff in Trump’s White House Oval Office came from Home Depot and was sprayed with an aerosol can of gold paint. Compare:
