None of this feels normal to me. Billionaires buying elections and the lawless running the show. Distortion of truth until people are stunned and brainwashed. Toxic masculinity glorified. Unrecognizable. Unacceptable.
Unevolved.

Department of Defense Law of War Manual, Sec. 18.3.2.1 states the "requirement" to refuse illegal orders.

What’s its key example? Wait for it . . . It’s "orders to fire upon the shipwrecked."

Surprise! The “peace plan” is really just a plan for Trump, Witkoff, Don Junior and their friends to get rich.

Everything is a grift. (And the Hunter hunters are silent)

All decent Americans must resist the criminal regime in the White House. Do it for patriotism, or do it because it's getting worse and everyone you love will suffer.
You can try to avoid politics, but politics will not avoid you.

This was a fellow human put in harm’s way for no good reason. Her death is a tragedy. May it strengthen our resolve to defy this depraved and lawless regime.
Sarah Beckstrom's ex-boyfriend told NBC News she dreamed of becoming an FBI special agent.

She didn't want to deploy to D.C.

"She hated it. She cried about it."

But she started visiting monuments and museums and started enjoying it.

May she rest in peace.

This is a good day to once again note that there are no other world leaders who have both nobly defied Trump's extortive quid pro quo blackmail and fought bravely to thwart Putin's murderous aggression. He's in a tough place and nobody can say how things will transpire. But Zelensky is a rare hero.

💯. It's not these patriotic citizens' fault they're being used as performative props by a corrupt, mendacious, and deranged president. They deserve our kindness and respect, and now, devastatingly, our deepest concern and sympathy. 😢

Imagine a world united—not by borders or flags, but by shared hope and humanity. When we stand together, our differences become our strength, and peace becomes more than a dream—it becomes our collective reality. 🌍✨

Dr Bandy X Lee said Trump may be a Malignant Narcissist.

With dementia what's next?

- Projection and Blame Magnified

Violence has no place in America. Michelle and I are praying for the servicemembers shot in Washington, DC today, and send our love to their families as they enter this holiday season under the most tragic of circumstances.

Understand that the Halligan thing is 100% Pam Bondi's fuck-up. She could have appointed Halligan Special Attorney and this thing would still be alive.

So it's not just that HALLIGAN is an incompetent bigot.

It's that Bondi is too.

A recent Fox News poll asked:
Do you think President Trump cares about you?
63% of respondents said "no."
For my part, the goal isn't just to get that number higher. The goal is to get more people to understand that Trump CAN'T care about them.
Not that he WON'T but CAN'T.
It's pathological.
