Not enough people are addressing the fact that Taiwan fell to China the minute we invaded Venezuela.
Every argument used by the administration for its actions in Venezuela can be used by China to justify taking Taiwan and it's pretty clear the US will do nothing to stop it.

To Denmark and Greenland: 100 Danish forces deployed to Desert Storm. They stood with us defending sovereignty and international law. Now I watch Stephen Miller mock you on TV while my government threatens to invade Greenland. I'm a veteran and I'm ashamed beyond words. I'm so sorry.

The end goal of Grok sexual harassment is to make women afraid to be visible. It’s a punishment for daring to exist in a way the perpetrators can’t control. There’s no one solution to this, because the problem isn’t just technological. It’s cultural. It’s misogyny. This is just one expression of it.

Gen. Dan Caine is now describing in exhaustive detail an illegal American military operation not a single soldier refused to carry out
If you're wondering whether our armed forces will support martial law inside the United States at some point in the next 2+ years, pay attention

If Nicolás Maduro stands trial in the United States and gets convicted of 34 felonies, does that mean he’s qualified to be our next president now?
Just checking what the standards are these days.

Just woke up even angrier. Impeach, convict, remove. Draft articles now. Either we have a representative government or we don’t. Do not shut up about this until there’s a vote.
