U.S. military spending is set to hit a record $1 trillion.

Roughly half of defense spending goes to private contractors that routinely price-gouge the government.

Meanwhile, the Pentagon has failed seven straight audits.

This is the military industrial complex on steroids.

The National Trust for Historic Preservation has filed a federal lawsuit to halt President Trump’s plan to build a massive new ballroom on White House grounds. The administration sidestepped multiple federal laws by advancing the project without required reviews.

We’ll be at war with Venezuela through next year so Trump has an excuse for suspension of the midterms!
The release of the Epstein files is required by law to happen on December 19th.
On December 18th, we will "officially" be at war with Venezuela.
Bank on it.

They’re targeting Venezuela to give Trump a reason to suspend the midterms!
“We are targeting Venezuela because of DRUGS, not OIL, which is why we are blowing up boats without any drugs and stealing a tanker full of oil.”

Erasing Black Lives Matter Plaza to score culture-war points isn’t “free speech,” it’s petty revisionism. Congress overriding DC to replace a civil-rights symbol with a partisan brand is not honor—it’s grievance politics masquerading as patriotism.

We’re going headlong into a military conflict with Venezuela and Trump will use it to steal the midterms. If the United States is at war during a federal election he has the authority to suspend the election. Thus retaining the present congress.

It’s looking as if there’ll not be any action on a health plan before the premiums sky rocket in January. So what was the point of the shutdown? Are there plans to egg the Unfaithful 8 Dem Senators? If so may I watch? If not there should be.

We know it’s a lie because they’re using body cam clips for propaganda and recruiting.
ICE(ERO) just told me it has no body camera footage from operation midway blitz in Chicago in response to my FOIA request.

So. Rep Crockett announced her TX campaign for US Senate.

Good.

Voters get a choice in the primary. They can research the candidates, find their positions on issues and choose.

She's getting ultra-gerrymandered out of her Rep seat, so why not take the shot.

It's a primary. Not a coliseum fight.

It is absolutely wild that the guy who won’t stop yelling about law and order is now personally stepping in to keep January 6 documents hidden from the police officers who were attacked that day. He knows exactly what’s in those files and he is terrified the country will see it.

At a minimum, a Democratic President and Congress, when re-creating these indpendent agencies that Trump is gutting, or repairing other damage he's done - all with the consent/concurrence of the SCOTUS majority, must write the legislation to include sections removing SCOTUS appellate jurisdiction.

This entire grift relies on convincing people that they don't know how to do the things they have always known how to do, and ironically, if it works, we will, in a very short amount of time, forget how to do all the things we have always known how to do.
