Extremely disrespectful to every allied soldier who bravely fought there.

Over 300,000 foreign born immigrants fought for the United States

Over 100, 000 weren’t citizens

The real reason the Kushner’s are trying to buy Sazan island in Albania and it’s not to build a luxury resort!

Sooooo....The Pentagon just declared Israel an enemy to the US the same week Congress voted to merge our military with theirs.

Am I getting that right?

Under Trump, the Forest Service is gutting labs that cost ONE DOLLAR in rent so they can cram scientists into a Fort Collins office that costs taxpayers a million a year.

As reported by NPR, Trump's 2027 budget zeroes out Forest Service research entirely. Three hundred and nine million dollars, gone. Fifty-seven of the agency's seventy-seven research stations are on the chopping block.

These are the forests generations of Americans have hiked, hunted, camped, and prayed in. Sacred ground for almost anyone who's ever stepped outside in this country.

And the "efficiency" pitch? A scam.

The research station in Hilo, Hawaii sits on 30,000 acres the federal government rents for a one-time fee of ONE DOLLAR, locked in until 2067. The Michigan Tech lease? One dollar paid in 1963, free ever since. Another site costs the agency $600 a month for two rooms.

The destination they want everyone shipped to in Fort Collins runs taxpayers a million a year.

Read that again. They're closing dollar leases to expand a million-dollar lease.
Scientists in Baltimore have spent years planting white oak saplings that need three decades to mature. You can't FedEx a forest to Colorado. You can't manage a Hawaiian ecosystem from a cubicle in Utah.

Researchers told NPR they'll quit before they relocate. Which is the point.

Meanwhile, Trump has openly pledged to ramp up logging on federal land. Gut the scientists who document the damage, and there's nobody left to sound the alarm when ancient forests get clear-cut for profit.

These are the people who tell us when wildfire season turns deadly. Who track invasive beetles eating through pine. Who teach cities how to recycle dead trees instead of dumping them in landfills.

You don't dismantle the world's largest forestry research network because you're worried about a maintenance bill. You dismantle it because somebody plans to take a chainsaw to what the public owns and doesn't want a paper trail.

The forests don't belong to Tom Schultz. They don't belong to Trump. They belong to every American who has ever stood quiet under a hundred-year-old tree and understood, for one second, that some things are not for sale.

Defend them now, or explain it to your grandkids later.

Israel, which would never bomb a hospital in Gaza, bombed more hospitals in Lebanon.

Remember when Israel bombed the first hospital in Gaza and the world wouldn't believe it and Israel blamed a misfired rocket from Hamas. Israel has destroyed all hospitals in Gaza.

Now Israel bombs Lebanon's hospitals and doesn't even need to pretend there's a military rationale or a misfired rocket.

SOUND UP!! Trump fans called Biden Sleepy Joe for years

Now I need MAGA to explain this video with a straight face. 💯

Whatever you do, DO NOT share this.

Would be a shame if Sleepy Don went viral. 🤣

Israel dropped a bomb on Mona’s home in Mansouri, South Lebanon, today.

Mona is not a fighter.

She is an environmental activist who dedicated her life to protecting endangered sea turtles.

Because of Israel, Mona is now fighting for her life in a hospital bed.

[DB - a comet, a gorilla, and a bear (mascots) @dbaker71852]

Because it was an Israeli intelligence/blackmail operation?

The story that Ivanka Trump has told about swimming to the island they’re buying and walking barefoot on it is bs because people from Albania say that the island is full of snakes and was a military compound before and there’s no way anyone was walking on it like that.
