Denmark ”is not being a good ally.“
Denmark, Georgia, Norway and Estonia contributed the highest number of troops — per capita — to the war against Al Qaeda in Afghanistan after 9/11. STFU, you miserable POS.

This is exactly what I — and many others — have been saying for years. Ever since Reagan, the GOP kicks up the deficit, with spending and tax cuts for the rich. Then, when Democrats take over, they and their media lapdogs wail and moan about the deficit.

Have we ever had the FBI run by Bozo and Krusty?
Is there any precedent in modern history for a mass shooting occurring in a public setting with 10+ casualties and the perpetrator not being apprehended? It's really hard to fathom.

“… but we still haven’t charged a single one of these alleged trafficking organizations. It will happen in two weeks. Trust us."
Kash Patel: "Our work on violent crimes against children is historic. We have found, identified, and discovered 6,000 children this year alone. That's up 30%. We have dismantled human trafficking organizations looking to enslave our children."

This clown’s gaslighting can be seen from the ISS. Likely from the Moon and Mars, too. He’s a shoo-in for the Shit-Shoveling Hall of Fame.
FOX: Year to date job cuts are up 54%. That seems like a troubling number. What's your take?
HASSETT: The flow of jobs in & out is a little higher, there's a little more turnover. A lot of times that can happen because people feel like they're actually able to get another job if they leave this one

This is completely f*cking insane. The Mad Hatter, the March Hare and the Red Queen have taken over a news network. The “truth” will be determined by betting markets.
This is the head of the company that CNN just partnered with, insisting that prediction markets are a great way to cut through the noise and determine what’s true and what isn’t.
No, really, listen to him. It’s actually that stupid.

Exactly. Half the Senate did an absolute shit job at “Advise and Consent.” In addition to Hagueseth, Bondi, McMahon, Noem, RFK, Sean Duffy, Tulsi Gabard, Kelly Loeffler, Kash Patel. You could assemble a better cabinet by setting up a sign-up desk at any Greyhound station.
the thing about signalgate is that it’s a scandal hegseth was ever nominated for this job, a scandal that 50 senators and vp vance voted to confirm him, and a scandal trump didn’t fire him months ago

Worth remembering what Smedley Butler, one of only two Marines to win the Medal of Honor twice, said in 1935:

NEW: Footage of a US citizen in Chicago being rammed then dragged from her car on her way to work.
Abducted, with no warrant, her family couldn’t find her for hours.
She was later released with NO CHARGE.
A DHS statement said she “violently resisted arrest, injuring two officers”.

At what point does a reporter decide being insulted isn’t worth having a WH press pass and respond with something like “And you’re a fourth-rate president.” Were I that reporter’s boss, there’d be a bonus and a big pay raise.
Q: Your response to people who say you haven't been transparent enough about demolishing the East Wing?
TRUMP: I haven't been transparent? Really? I showed this to everybody that would listen. 3rd rate reporters didn't see it because they didn't look. You're a third rate reporter. Always have been
