And how does this happen? It's not like russia was given time to adapt because it was protected by some escalation management scum like biden that should burn in hell. And not like russia was protected because the same scum tied Ukrainian hands and forbade to strike russian military. Right?

Everybody Around Trump Hates the Unhinged Laura Loomer. Except Trump.

She has zero qualifications, zero experience, zero talent except self-promotion. So how’d she get the national security adviser fired?

This is what stupidity looks like

Analysts responsible for monitoring & protecting the US from biological, chemical & nuclear threats have been fired.

We are not ready for the next pandemic.

Also- a reminder that Trump hasn’t commented on shots fired at the CDC.

RIP #CDC

🧪 archive.today/sPlR4

Hundreds of CDC layoffs reversed, but biodefense preparedness staff hit

More than half of the roughly 1,300 CDC layoff notices have been rescinded, but workers at health agencies who work on biodefense and mental health still lost their jobs.

Davis: In [Mike Johnson’s] mind, how can one be a good Christian while at the same time want to take away health care?

Former fundamentalist Levins: Mike Johnson is a beta male in a patriarchal structure. He knows that he’s got to be obedient to his authority, who is Donald Trump—who to him is God.

A ceasefire takes effect, and Trump immediately uses the moment to trash American leaders in a campaign-style speech—while his regime cracks down on protesters at home and keeps the government shuttered. Watch the MeidasTouch Podcast at 8p ET/5p PT:

Jordy: Republicans control every branch of government. Every day that passes with the gov shut down is another reminder that Trump and the GOP would rather protect pedos than ensure people have health care. Because once the government reopens, you know what’s coming—a vote on the Epstein files.
