From here on out all of his supporters should just be called pedo protectors.

From here on out every GOP politician and MAGA should only be called pedo protectors.

The US Army’s 250 years of service celebration has been hijacked for a personal vanity parade for someone who continuously denigrates our troops and the sacrifices they have made.

Instead of watching the parade find another way to celebrate our military members. No tv ratings for him. #goarmy

Not sure what they think that will do unless he is completely divested from the company and stock. People are tired of making him richer.

So this is the part of the story when Gilead’s colonies are started?

Absolutely insane this went all the way to Supreme Court. SCOTUS ruling against Kristi Noem, Secretary, DHS et al should mean a resignation/removal. They don’t want this man back because they’re scared of what he’ll say about what they did to him and others. He needs protection.

They knew it then, they have always known it. It was ok when it was just affecting others and not them so they let it slide.

Leave with all our personal data and government secrets. At least with him in the administration federal employees have been able to keep an eye on him.

You sir are a hero. Your entire message was of substance - meaningful and powerful on so many levels. Gratitude to you, your team, and those that stood in solidarity alongside you. Now @senatedemocrats.bsky.social need to take a hard look in the mirror - get a real leader and get to work.

M @blackthornobsidian.bsky.social · Apr 1

Now do America.

Agree 💯. If they still insist on running it like a business WE are the shareholders and WE have invested our tax dollars. Give us the performance we expect, give us our returns, or be removed.

Kinda wild to say it was an UNEXPECTED danger when the very unqualified and incompetent “U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has promoted vitamin A, even suggesting it might help prevent measles. But doctors say this isn't true.”

WE ALL SAW THIS COMING

This too. Our seniors appear to be disposable to this administration.

Out of all the government agencies, programs, and resources gutted - this strikes me as one of the sickest, most heartless moves. The National Center on Elder Abuse, really?? How does this make America great?

According to www.seniorliving.org/research/eld... elder abuse is rampant.
