He only comes out at the last minute when he’s desperate. If the GOP candidate said next week that military must obey lawful orders, he’d cut him off. “I never heard of him.” Fickle and faithful only to himself. Got to give Trump thus: his self service is unlimited.

I stole this from somebody and wanted to share.

I bet he knows next to nothing about them. About as much ch as me, but I would never make some of these ugly assumptions and I hope decent people in the 7th never make them, too.

Close race in a district DJT carried by 22pts a year ago.

He is including presidential pardons, and claiming without evidence. Juts a kingly decree.

I’m okay with this. His democratic successor can do the same. I think pardons are great, but if this nullifies them, I’m good. They need constitutional reform, which is unlikely. This? A solution. Maybe?

I hadn’t caught this when it happened. I’m sure MAGA cheered. But,MAGA is only a potion of the GOP,which is only a portion of the voting public,which is a portion of eligible voters, which is only a portion of Americans.

The cheer of bullies and children in adult roles.

They cheer, I laugh, sadly.
November 29, 2025 at 2:14 AM
Only way this makes sense is if you assume he is only pardoning conservatives, right?
November 29, 2025 at 1:48 AM
I know he just says a lot of nonsense but this is just wrong.

The Filipina throughout the healthcare system? My own wife originally came from Thailand. Mexican labor built my house. This is simply racist jingoism.

Very dark and dirty country we live in right now.

I’ll be thankful when they act this face on school shootings!
November 27, 2025 at 11:32 PM
Isn’t it a claim of most Christians that Jesus’s family fled away to Egypt? To seek refuge?

Mike Lee would be manning a wall telling Joseph to show his papers while Mary and Child were taken to a detention center.

History doesn’t repeat but it sure echoes fine.
November 27, 2025 at 10:22 AM
Hours into a tragedy and already with the finger pointing?

When it’s a school shot up by a MAGA nut, you all repeat the same garbage-it’s too soon to politicize this!

Hypocrisy runs deep!

How on earth would the know how vetted or unvetted this person was at this point?
November 27, 2025 at 6:19 AM
I can think of one selfish uncharitable son of a bitch Senator from Utah is like to add to any lists you are drawing up.

I’ve see rural farmers on TikTok lamenting friends and neighbors. They are saying those taken were good hard working people.

Dems hope you keep talking this way.
Purple Utah!
November 27, 2025 at 6:14 AM
Yes, Mike, Biden dropped the ball and was foolish with the border.

However, has nothing to do with what she is saying. I bet even you can trace your family back to when your ancestors had to flee and seek refuge elsewhere.

Heard Missouri thru many out with no where to go.

Mercy is good, too.
November 27, 2025 at 6:10 AM
Last year Senator Lee was very sure the Democrats were going to add more Justices and Pack the courts.

Seem the definition of words are flexible over in MAGAland.
November 27, 2025 at 1:23 AM
What?
We have Sen Kelly facing court martial for telling troops the same thing military ethics instructors say all the time.

Plus the chief executive of the National declaring, like a king,they should be hanged, too?

Complaining about “lawfare”and promising hearing is NOT a pretty look, Senator.
November 26, 2025 at 10:18 AM
Senator Lee-laser focused on Utah priorities.
November 26, 2025 at 10:12 AM
NATO’s Art 5 has only be used once. NATO mobilized to help protect the U.S. after 9/11.

Make me realize Mike Lee is the kind of neighbor who asks for help but is always busy when you need help.

NATO makes US stronger. Those so quick to abandon a friend is worthy of the name coward.
November 26, 2025 at 10:10 AM
They will never accept the loss just one time. It’s shameful and hysterical.
November 26, 2025 at 10:03 AM
Or, there was no way to go further to the right?
November 25, 2025 at 12:46 AM
I don’t know, Mike. Maybe, maybe not.

Personally, the GI bill made college affordable. The VA loan for my house made it affordable for me and my family.

But, you could be right! Tariffs have made many things more expensive. The Saudi oil deal made oil cheaper-but puts US drilling out of business.
November 24, 2025 at 11:20 PM
Prophylactic warning of upcoming illegal orders?

Freedom of speech covers all of this.

Last year Lee said more and worse against President Biden.
November 24, 2025 at 6:57 PM
What charge would he face? Because service members are told the same thing in basic, advanced and career courses and during annual training. UCMJ ART 92 covers failure to obey LAWFUL orders.
November 24, 2025 at 6:20 PM
Lee is still trying to get this dead horse across the finish line. It’s poor legislation meant to carefully carve out who can easily vote and who can’t.

If he really wants it passed-who in the Dem caucus is he currently working with?
November 24, 2025 at 3:04 AM
Senator Lee, who have you been working with among the Democrats to ensure it passes?
Or would you rather it not pass and be used in sound bites against the Democrats?

When will you fight for you constituents instead of against the other party?

You don’t do the required work!
November 24, 2025 at 2:44 AM
Sen Lee doesn’t realize every service member is told this same thing in training. “You don’t have to obey an unlawful order.” Officer&enlisted basic teaches it in the classroom. Without any apparent presumption of any unlawful order.
My Lai massacre,Al-ghriab prison and Lt Lorance are good examples.
November 24, 2025 at 2:41 AM
We have been doing this for 80 years. Only time the NATO treaty organization was called into action was to defend the U.S.

Lee likes mocking “climate alarmists” but I think he has a boogeyman in his closet called socialism. Everyone and everything left of him is socialist, and dying.

Utah! Really?
