Three-star general who has more military knowledge and capability in his pinky fingernail than Kegseth will ever have. They are going to start a war and get people killed and there's no guarantee that it doesn't hit American soil considering that resources are being diverted.

A three-star general serving on the Pentagon’s Joint Staff has been pushed out of his position following months of sustained tensions with Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, according to people familiar with the matter. https://cnn.it/47fz601

The Cuomo boys are desperate to be as influential as their father was and will turn to people their father would fillet and serve up on a platter for their lies to the American public and their fealty to Trump.

Rebecca Fishbein @bfishbfish.bsky.social · 13h

What an odious thing to say. www.nytimes.com/live/2025/10...

On Fox Business, Cuomo continued to paint an ominous picture of New York City under Zohran Mamdani if he is elected mayor and questioned his allegiance to America and the city. “Dual-citizenship, he was a citizen of Uganda, his parents own a mansion in Uganda, he’s spent a lot of time there,” Cuomo said. He went on to again invoke 9/11 in conjunction with the candidacy of Mamdani, who was a 9-year-old boy living in New York when the attacks took place. “He just doesn’t understand the New York culture, the New York values, what 9/11 meant.”

I agree. I will say, as someone who is almost 20 years older than him, that I know people from similar backgrounds (the prep schools) whose parents said, "prove it before I spend any more money," and they went the "F you" route and joined the military.

Did he constantly screw up, and his parents said they aren't paying for college until he shows he is going to put work in, and he retaliated with the Marines? We all know he could have gotten into one of those colleges that admit people with the right numbers on a check.

Yeah, tell that to all the people who have gotten notices averaging more than 50 times, 100 times that false, made-up $13 figure.

Q: Unless ACA subsidies are extended, the average plan will increase by somewhere around 115%

DR OZ: Where'd you get that number?

Q: Kaiser Family Foundation

OZ: They retracted that. Here's the truth. The average American who's on ACA is gonna pay $13 more than this year. That's not a big issue

This is not how America is supposed to be. Trump and his goons are doing their best to destroy this country.

I have been charged in a federal indictment sought by the Department of Justice.

This political prosecution is an attack on all of our First Amendment rights. I’m not backing down, and we’re going to win.

They are doing nothing to make us feel safe flying. We have a very ill family member on the other side of the country. We are not visiting before their passing, and have agreed that after they pass, we will probably go by train. I no longer feel safe driving with my very blue license plate.

These are the same people who flip out when people say they want nothing to do with them because of their Trump support, because they see a lack of morals in a person who supports Trump.

If Trump can tear down the White House and travel to Japan, he most certainly can sit down with Democrats to figure a way to get things moving. "Government shut down" is not a real reason for not negotiating, they want people to hurt because they think it will kill the Democrats.

THUNE: “I spoke with the president last night. He's happy to sit down with the Democrats next week to talk about Obamacare, but you can't do that when the government is shut down. That would be subject, again, to them voting to reopen the government.”

I driven through a lot of MAGA counties and states in a car with license plates from very blue states. I didn't feel comfortable when I got out of the car. I have never felt that riding any city's public transportation, or walking down the streets.

Aaron Rupar @atrupar.com · 1d

Sean Duffy: "If you're a Democrat, you're a liberal, you don't like cars and you want people to ride public transportation, I think that's wonderful, good for you. But if you want us all to ride public transportation, make it safe. Make it clean. Make is beautiful. I don't know why NY can't do that"

Studies show that when families who receive SNAP benefits have an able bodied adult, 89% of the time this person is employed

Which indicates many corporations don’t pay workers a living wage-and are thus subsidized by SNAP-yet somehow Republicans never mention this when they cry about “socialism”

The USDA has funding set aside to keep food assistance programs running during emergencies.

Trump just won’t release it.

They are. They have been fed a line of lies about people who receive government benefits that started with Reagan, and too many people grew up hearing it or let themselves believe it.

Muslims comprise about 1.3% of the US population. If they can indeed make this an issue that can shift millions of votes, then the American electorate (and the opposition to MAGA) is a lost cause.

I'd like to see this concern reflected in the GOP asap
