Retired 🐊 ⚓️. Served in joint commands much of my career, so I respect various perspectives…except for MAGA. Dangerous antidemocratic whack jobs. 🇺🇸 Democrat
@peterdaou Serious answer: their comments are protected in the U.S. Constitution, Art I, Sect 6, Cl 1. Not to mention, of course, the Constitution’s First Amendment.
Speech with which you disagree, uttered by someone you hate is protected in the U.S. Leave if that bothers you.
@PeterHotez I made the same point a few days ago. Maybe you’ll get better traction. Doubt it, because data-driven, evidence-based science screws with the anti-vax narrative.
So the scientific evidence is clear, not only do vaccinations not cause SIDS, we have studies showing vaccinations actually reduce the incidence of SIDS. Why? BC some vaccine preventable diseases cause SIDS. Meanwhile the disinformation empire makes money pedaling their supplements and ivermectin and profits off of this nonsense, articles attached
@Real_Ames The only “tool” in this is you. The shit’s floating up from the bottom after it peeled off. That’s what one gets when awarding a no-bid contract to an incompetent pool guy who knows nothing about maintaining a water feature that is intended to drain and be re-fed filtered water.
When the illusion finally shatters, what remains isn't disappointment,it's humiliation.
The man you poured your faith into was never a visionary, never a savior, never even remotely exceptional.
He was a hollow fraud wrapped in ego, fueled by noise, and sustained by endless self-promotion.
Every boast, every grand promise, every display of swagger crumbles the instant reality enters the room.
What looked like confidence was arrogance.
What looked like strength was insecurity.
What looked like leadership was little more than a carefully marketed illusion.
Scratch beneath the surface and there's no hidden brilliance, no master strategist, no misunderstood genius. Just an impulsive, self-absorbed figure stumbling from one failure to the next, desperately trying to drown incompetence in a torrent of bluster and spectacle.
In the end, the strongman image collapses into exactly what it always was: cheap theater.
A gaudy performance.
A caricature masquerading as leadership.
A salesman peddling an image he could never live up to.
And the hardest part isn't watching the act fall apart.
It's realizing how long you applauded it, defended it, and mistook obvious bullshit for substance.....
@mccaffreyr3@gball_pduck As I walked around DC while stationed there, including nearly 3 years at the WH, I saw virtually every step I took was visible to surveillance cameras. Especially true on the Mall. Where’s the video of the vandals? The cause was incompetence and ignorance, and no-bid contracting.
@CynicalPublius It’s cute how you think he *thinks.* He doesn’t think. He bleats out incoherent brain farts. You must really suck as a lawyer if you believe his shit.
@MarshaBlackburn The asterisk should tell you it relates to a provision above. When one looks above for the asterisk, one finds that an IL ID is required ONLY if requesting the discount for state residents. You’re such a disingenuous, hate-filled hag. Grow up.
