I think it would be good to get some women in charge of the countries that have nuclear weapons. Women talk to each other. Women can be reasonable. Enough with the macho men and swinging dicks.

Remember fly your flag upside down. And own your stoop today let them see you.
I am wearing the black beret I earned in 79 so I look like I crawled out of a hard day in Vietnam.

Last week, Trump placed over 100 National Security Council staffers on leave—Marco Rubio doing his bidding. The NSC is where our government connects the dots between threats, diplomacy, and defense.
It was built to protect America. Now it’s being hollowed out. This isn’t reform. It’s sabotage.

Why the National Security Council Matters
When the next crisis hits, we’ll feel the cost of gutting it.

In all the outrage about what the White House is doing, please pause for a moment - and even LOWER YOUR PHONE - to pray for the souls of these four brave patriots. Sons of Illinois, California, Guam, and Michigan.
They died for their country.

Thou shalt not joke about how you sent an innocent father of 3 to a gulag while his autistic son smells his shirts to remember him.

All of the Republicans who for years railed about "unelected bureaucrats" destroying the government are awfully quiet as an unelected bureaucrat destroys the government.

I updated this due to an astute follower pointing out that Alabama changed their laws to have off year local elections as well. That's a lot of races in 2025 in some 31 states! Local elections matter! Get involved! Send a message! This doesn't even include a bunch of special elections happening now!

If House Republicans really wanted to protect women, they'd release the Ethics Committee report on Matt Gaetz' alleged sex trafficking - not try to ban their colleagues from using the bathroom. Stop the bigotry and release the report.

This should terrify every American. It doesn’t matter where you stand on immigration. Using our military as a domestic law enforcement tool at mass scale will destroy its core purpose, turn the American people against them, and damage the institution for decades.
