Why didn’t Trump order flags to be flown at half staff for National Guard member Sarah Beckstrom like he did for Charlie Kirk? 🤔

"… in the present instance, it was perfectly clear to the accused that killing defenceless people in the life-boats could be nothing else but a breach of the law. As naval officers by profession they were well aware …."

We have a cabinet level Secretary of State, a diplomatic corps, Special Envoys, and Defense team to do this work.

“Son-in-law” is not a government job. Kushner does not represent us.

"Beware of any Christian movement that acts as though the world is full of enemies to be destroyed rather than full of neighbors to be loved.

Beware of any Christian movement that demands the government be an instrument of God's wrath, but never a source of God's mercy, generosity, or compassion."

31 years ago this month, I warned that America was becoming a two-tiered society composed of a few winners and a larger group left behind, whose anger and disillusionment could be easily manipulated.

I took a lot of heat for this speech. Watch and tell me if I was wrong.

A sad irony here is that tRump himself is incapable of loving our country, and he is also destroying everything that America stands for.
In case you thought you were safe bc you aren't one of his currently identified enemies to kidnap and deport, take a look at this line:

"and remove anyone who is not a net asset to the United States, or is incapable of loving our Country..."

No one is safe when a bully is in charge.

This is Trumpism in its purest form: accuse others of what you’re doing, and shout it loudly enough that the truth has to fight for oxygen.
Trump treats the word “illegal” the same way he treats facts: as decorations.

Ok I'm going to repost and pin this. If you THINK you're interested in Politics and understand Neo-liberal economics but have never seen how clearly Gary breaks it down, maybe you really don't know how there can be both 'not enough money' and plenty at the same time. It's up to us all to KNOW.
If you don't do something about the billionaire class...You have no choice but to shut the welfare state down that our grandparents and great grandparents fought for.

When asked about the death of a W. Virginia National Guardsman, the President of the United States bragged about his electoral margin in her state.

When asked about the shooter, he called the reporter a stupid person.

Please stop holding quarter for anyone supporting this monstrous piece of shit.

You're a high ranking government official and you shouldn't make things up.

Your 70% number is just a fabrication.

And it's TOTALLY not true that "every single" person you detained is here illegally. For instance, many were allowed in so they could apply for asylum.

While the right lose their goddamn minds about a lone wolf doing something horrendous in DC today, let’s not forget that last week in the White House they all gushed over a genocidal, journalist murdering tyrant whose country financed 9/11.

If the state of Delaware prohibited companies incorporated there from spending on elections in any way, Citizens United would be dead in the water.

Delaware incorporates more companies than any other state.

It’s a blue state. Let’s get cracking on moving Delaware lawmakers on this!
