Vietnam Vet. USAF TET 68. Independent, WV is home now.
Vote???¿???
Let’s get real. While Trump launches an illegal military attack on Venezuela yes, another country’s president kidnapped, on U.S. soil what do Democrats do? They issue statements. They murmur moral outrage. Rep. Ted Lieu says he’ll “vote to stop it.” Vote?

Rubio is claiming that they did not need Congress permission because it was a law enforcement mission. The US is behaving as a global police state, extending its own arbitrary legal decisions to the whole world.

This is not a problem just for Venezuela.

Members of Congress: stop posting online and APPEAR, PHYSICALLY on the steps of the Capitol to decry this unconstitutional violation of domestic & international law. SHOW THE PEOPLE the level of danger we are facing as a country.

The Kennedy Center was established and named by an act of Congress. No media outlet should call it anything different until Congress amends or repeals that Act. Trump is not a king.

George Clooney: "If CBS and ABC had challenged those lawsuits and said, 'Go fuck yourself,' we wouldn't be where we are in the country."

"That's simply the truth."

"Bari Weiss is dismantling CBS News as we speak," Clooney says. "I'm worried about how we inform ourselves."

Trump attacking the Kennedy family again right as they are mourning a death is not shocking. It’s just consistent.

This is the same man who never met a moment of human decency he didn’t try to monetize, hijack, or defile with a grievance.

If true...
Just a reminder, or as new info for those who don't know:

Under EO 13526, which is still in force and which Trump has affirmed, no information can be classified to conceal violations of the law or prevent embarrassment.

Someone please explain that to Hegseth.

A bit of a surprise coming from you, but you are so righ...correct!!!
Rand Paul: "This is an insane policy. It's inconsistent. It's not war. It's not the way we've ever done this. If we can blow up a boat in the ocean, what about when they get to Miami & put it in a truck? Can you shoot a grenade launcher at the truck? No! We arrest people b/c sometimes we're wrong."

Indiana Republicans are under significant pressure to do something they know is wrong: rig the maps and silence voters.

Washington Republicans are demanding a "9–0 map." That’s not democracy - that’s cheating. They know it, and they’re ashamed, which is why they’re hesitating.

Kelly: He runs around on stage talking about lethality and the warrior ethos.. That’s not the message that should be coming from the Secretary of Defense… He runs around on a stage like he’s a 12 year old playing army. It’s embarrassing.

Mark Kelly: "We have a president who doesn't understand the Constitution, who installed an unqualified secretary of defense. I cannot think of a secretary of defense in the history of our country that is less qualified than Pete Hegseth. He should've been fired after Signal-gate."

I'm nobody, but I thank you for speaking up!

I think he is the least qualified Secretary of Defense in the history of our country by far. & this President thinks he can bully & intimidate people?

National Guard troops don't sign up to be used as political pawns. They sign up to serve their country, not needlessly deploy to American cities to pick up garbage. These two soldiers should be alive right now and at home with their families for Thanksgiving. I'm furious.
November 26, 2025 at 9:14 PM
Thank you. The very best to you and yours
This Thanksgiving, I’m grateful for so much - above all, for loved ones who are with us in our best and worst moments, and who remind us who we really are.

From our family to yours, Happy Thanksgiving!

Disgusted to hear of the targeted shooting of National Guard members in DC today. All Americans should unite in condemning and rejecting this violence. Sending prayers to these victims and their families, and thankful to the responders who acted so quickly.
