@adamkinzinger.substack.com if this did occur, it’s not accidental. It’s negligence. You don’t enter a polyester pig pile with your gun drawn, then switch it to your left hand and then continue with the pile on. Back up, secure your weapon and then recommit

It looks like that agent pulled his weapon with his right hand, then it appears he switches it to his left, then there is a gunshot and everyone backs away before another agent fires several more shots. Wouldn’t surprise me if the first agent who drew had a ND, which led to the shooting

“Two members of Elon Musk’s DOGE team working at the Social Security Administration were secretly in touch with an advocacy group seeking to “overturn election results in certain states,” and one signed an agreement that may have involved using Social Security data to match state voter rolls”
Trump administration concedes DOGE team may have misused Social Security data — POLITICO
Some DOGE personnel had more access to data than previously acknowledged, according to a court filing.

Who chooses their own specialist? Your primary care provider refers you out for a procedure, you call and schedule it, your insurance company pre-authorizes it (or denies it), and the procedure is performed. I have never looked at a list of specialists and picked one out of a line up.

There were 2 GOP candidates I wish I could have voted for; Mitt Romney and John McCain. I voted for BO and would do so again but if a GOP candidate had to win, I wish it were McCain or Romney instead of this turd we have now

Need more petitions to change state constitutions to codify voter rights, womens rights, sick leave, min wage, etc. They can succeed if funded & targeted. The best part of progressive petitions is that they give the left hope. The left does best/w hope as opposed to the right which votes out of fear

There is no quick fix for the big stuff. The 3rd branch of government is conservative & locked in for our lifetime, so anyone reaching out to block progressive executive actions will likely succeed. The best long term goal is state by state petitions to undo gerrymandering & the Citz United decision

Anyone who has rated VA claims knows the name, Gina Uribe, the co-owner of this company. I think she only writes positive medical nexus opinions regardless of the evidence

The company is owned by Gina Uribe. Anyone who rated claims at the VBA knows that name

Worked for a HI company in the late 90s, can attest to how bad it got for people w/ preexisting conditions. Our company regularly denied claims, removed people from policies or excluded coverage for specific conditions via a process called “recission.” U even had to pay extra for pregnancy coverage!

It’s a shame, the way these people, corporates, institutions, and countries suck up to the orange man. Nothing like this before in my generation.

We have to start with a fix for gerrymandering. That will ensure the power remains with the people; who as voters they can affect true, meaningful changes. As opposed to gerrymandered districts, resulting in a select group of voters being over represented in Congress.

This started with gerrymandered districts. The left has to overperform to win the house and presidential elections. The GOP can have a down year and still come out even or ahead in some cases. Which leads to apathy from left leaning, low propensity voters. Fix gerrymandering now!!!
June 29, 2025 at 12:16 PM
People power works if gerrymandering isn’t an issue. In these 2 races, that wasn’t an issue. For our votes to matter and for people to take back power nationally we have to fix gerrymandering. That must be a priority!!!

My unit provided security for fuel trucks and supply trucks. Those truck drivers were mostly non-American (Philippines, Vietnam, Syria, etc.) but we were all targeted. Our reward for escorting those needed supplies, were IEDs. Which also targeted Iraqi citizens. That’s why they’re terrorists.
June 22, 2025 at 7:10 PM
A similar concept are EFP IEDs (which Iran supplied to the terrorists in Iraq). They would punch a hole in our armor; from the outside you see a baseball size hole and think it wasn’t bad, but inside the vehicle, everything was turned into spaghetti O’s because of the targeted projectile and energy

I’m no fan of the douche Cheeto in the White House but photos of the top soil won’t show the true damage inflicted. The MOP is meant to penetrate 200+ feet and then damage the target. You can see the holes punched in the soil on the after photos but any damage underneath is not visible
