One of those left coast people. If you're not angry today, you're not paying attention. MAGA profiles will be blocked. Following me does not guarantee a follow back.

A Canadian publisher has called out the United States for using the image of a children's book character to brag about murdering unarmed people in international waters.
This is a decrepit gangster state.
This is the world of Donald Trump.
This is demonic.

Kelly: He runs around on stage talking about lethality and the warrior ethos.. That’s not the message that should be coming from the Secretary of Defense… He runs around on a stage like he’s a 12 year old playing army. It’s embarrassing.

Bash: "Do you believe if there was a second strike to eliminate any survivors that it constitutes a war crime?"

Mark Kelly: "It seems to."

Bash: "If you received that order, would you have carried it out?"

Mark Kelly: "No…Going after survivors in the water is unlawful."

That’s rich coming from the architect. McConnell is just as responsible as Trump. He thought he could still control Trump and the senators, but he got older and Trump got bolder.

“Ah, just one more thing, sir. You’re blowing up those boats, saying they’re filled with drugs headed for the US. But then you go and pardon the guy who brought in 400 tons of cocaine. That’s billions of doses. Help me understand that.”

Definitely
In a more sensible and serious world, Mark Kelly would take Pete Hegseth’s job as secretary of defense, @radiofreetom.bsky.social argues:
Senator Mark Kelly Is in the Wrong Job
He should be secretary of defense.

Remember when the government was closed and Speaker Johnson swore they would negotiate on the ACA once it reopened? Well, Trump’s plan to extend ACA subsidies is now on hold after GOP pushback.

This proves they never planned to negotiate. Republicans have no intention of lowering healthcare costs.

When Mark Kelly spoke to the troops, he wasn’t talking politics. He was reinforcing the pillars of a free country.👇

The draft dodging idiot posted a pic of this West Point plaque. It contains these words:

“Our American Code of Military Obedience requires that, should orders and the law ever conflict, our officers must obey the law.”

That is precisely what Senator Mark Kelly told officers to do. #NoSedition
