Why this administration hates history?
FYI:
In 1916 the U.S. signed an agreement for control of St. Thomas, St. John & St. Croix, known as the “Danish West Indies,” in exchange for $25 million & a declaration that the U.S. would “not object to the Danish Govt extending their political & economic interests to the whole of Greenland.

Listen to the panic of this moment as #ICE shoots into her car with kids inside.
How can anyone think that this is acceptable?
It's absolutely repugnant.
#ICELawlessness is happening again & again.
Just about every attack is being done without warrants on innocent people by anonymous thugs.

Utah commissioned it's department of health to do a systematic review of gender affirming care for trans youth. In a 1000 page plus report found it was beneficial and the evidence was substantial. The lawmakers rejected it anyways.

Overthrowing the government of Iran and installing the shah led to the Iranian revolution and the Ayatollah. Funding the Mujahideen in Afghanistan led to the taliban and Al queda. These unlawful actions could have destabilizing consequences for decades and this will haunt the US for generations.

Is Trump the new Saddam Hussein?
Just because you can make an analogy doesn’t mean it’s a good one…
Tom Cotton: "Congress isn't notified when the FBI is going to arrest a drug trafficker or cyber criminal here in the US, nor should Congress be notified when the executive branch is executing arrests on indicted persons. And that's really what you can make the analogy to here."

SCIF-a-Lago
Trump is posting a bunch of photos without captions, presumably of him watching the Maduro kidnapping.
Is this the inside of a SCIF at Mar-a-Lago or did they just toss up some pipe and drape?

These are just a few of the nearly 5,000 talented, fully qualified, deployable, and yes lethal, individuals who were purged from the armed forces bc they are different. If that isn’t the definition of discrimination I don’t know what would be. As a result, this nation is less safe.
They served.
They led.
They made the force stronger.
These are heroes—not because of who they are, but because of how they served. They are just a few who stepped forward to defend all Americans.
They were trained to lead—and they will continue to serve.
They are not the last.
