"What I'm saying here is that I'm pretty much of a smug, sanctimonious dick, and that I have no problem being wildly overconfident about expressing the mediocre, half-baked, knee jerk bullshit that passes as opinion for me. I'm intellectually lazy AF, but still superior. That comes through, right?"
Hegseth inarguably issues illegal orders. He orders people to commit murder. Any military personnel who obeyed those orders are now open to prosecution. When you follow an order you ought to know is illegal, you bring shame on the military. Hegseth dishonors you be issuing illegal orders.

When you look at a Trump post, count the adjectives. If he uses more than 5 unique adjectives in one post, he almost certainly didn't write it. His vocabulary has become way to constricted for that. Same if the post stays on a single topic for the entire post. It's clear he can't do that anymore.

When will main stream media to realize they have to walk away from Trump. They cover despots all over the world without having direct access. It's time to cover Trump the same way they cover Putin. They do not need to bask in his presence or absorb his hostility. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

The president has illegally declared war to stop fentanyl trafficking from a country that does not traffic that drug, claiming its leader is trafficking drugs himself, the day after pardoning a former leader of a country who is a convicted drug trafficker.

Are we really doing this? Going to war with Venezuela for no reason at all, no congressional declaration of even a "use of Force" bill? It sure looks as if we are. How many people who are alive right now will be dead within the year at the hands of Donald Trump? Hell isn't deep or hot enough for him

I know Woody Allen is permanently tainted, but this is still one of the greatest lines in cinema history. I thought it was beyond hilarious the first time I heard it. It hits very differently now. www.youtube.com/watch?v=V8e-...

From perfect safety thousand of miles away, Hegseth is straight up murdering men on the basis of them being on a boat one of his drones could see. They died not because of anything they'd done, but because they were a visible, convenient target. This is murder. Pete Hegseth is a murderer.

Pete Hegseth is desperate to be seen as a warrior, but he's not. He's a shitty little murderer, a war criminal and a coward who kills helpless people clinging to the burning wreckage of their ship from perfect safety, thousand of miles away. He is without honor who should rot in a military prison.

Let’s talk about corruption.
Given the facts we know now - that, in short, EVERYONE around DJT and he himself is profiting off of selling Ukraine to the murderer, why are we still pretending for US to be the intermediary in these “negotiations”? What exactly are we expecting here? Where is EU?

What do these corporations have in common?
Netflix
Ford
Tesla
T-Mobile
Duke Energy
DISH Network
Metlife
Dominion Energy
United States Steel
In recent years, they all paid their execs more than they paid in taxes.
This is what a corporate-rigged system looks like.

Pete Hegseth, moving up the ladder on the with his eyes on the prize of the longest jail sentence for any Trump cabinet member. Using your position as Secretary of DEFENSE to straight up murder people and then LYING about it. That's not a six months in the slammer deal. That's a life sentence.

I think the American people should band together and pay however much it takes to make Mamdani Trump's full time babysitter. Because their meeting was the single solitary time I have ever seen Trump behave like a human being.

The DC shooting story is really getting to me because we literally trained this man as a child soldier for a death squad in a forever war and Stephen Miller et al want to blame it on other cultures? It's our culture, American culture, that killed that woman.
