Can anyone identify anything beneficial to Americans that Trump has done in his second term? If you are inclined to say ”he’s deported illegal immigrants,” so did Obama and Biden without Trump’s violence and violations of civil rights. He destroys everything he touches. Builds nothing positive.

NEW info on shipwreck attack. It gets worse.

The 2 survivors climbed atop wreckage and waved to overhead.

"Some of the people viewing the video thought ... could have been an attempt to surrender"

Others "said the most logical explanation was ... signaling for a rescue."

U.S. Senator Bill Cassidy (R) has apparently seen enough and had enough: “The ACIP is totally discredited. They are not protecting children.” 👀

Proceedings resume tomorrow. Expect them to take a wrecking ball to the vaccine schedule.

Yes, and while we’re at it, maybe we should figure out why he seemed delusional and/or disoriented during part(s?) of yesterday’s Dear Leader cabinet meeting.

For example, see the bit about Tim Walz and JD Vance, both of whom he called incompetent.

It was televised. Why isn’t it today’s headline?

Somehow this is the worst part.

Yet again I'd like to thank the publishing industry, Hollywood, and Yale Law School for ensuring this bigot's rise to prominence.

An alcohol-induced stupor isn't 'fog of war'

A soldier with a weapon in hand taking consistent enemy fire is what creates the "fog of war".

Not a television in an air-conditioned room watching someone else do the dirty work.

Pete Hegseth is a murderer. Period.
Hegseth, citing ‘fog of war,’ says he learned of survivors hours after strike
The defense secretary’s remarks were the most extensive public accounting yet of his involvement in the military’s lethal attack on alleged drug smugglers on Sept. 2.

Seems as if the bigger story here is Trump’s complete and utter incoherence. WTF is he even talking about? WHO is he talking about??

Maybe it’s just me or I’m missing some important context, but I honestly feel like grandpa’s trolley has finally jumped the tracks. 🚃🛤️

I have come to the idea that we have to collectively, brutally, ritualistically kill Target just to show capital that we truly aren’t fucking around.

1/ You must refuse illegal orders.” That’s what 6 Democratic members of Congress said on video. Trump called it seditious. The FBI launched an investigation. Then came reporting in WAPO about an order SecDef Hegseth gave ahead of the 9/2 attack on a boat allegedly trafficking drugs in the Caribbean.

How low we have sunk as a country. The US Department of Defense is now run by a rabid war criminal.

Ordering the execution of helpless survivors of an attack is ALWAYS a war crime, whether they civilian or military.

Pure, mindless, barbarism.
