GOP Sen. Thom Tillis is calling on Trump to fire Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth following Dan Driscoll’s resignation as Secretary of the Army:
“I have never witnessed more inept management of the brave men and women who serve our country. He is intimidated by competence and retreats to ginning up culture wars instead of soberly attending to the vital work of our national defense and the health and well-being of our fighting force,” Tillis said.
Holy Cow!
"immigration reduces the likelihood that any one of us will be harmed."
David Bier of the Cato Institute just destroyed the Trump/Republican talking point about Immigrants and crime before the House panel on Birthright Citizenship.
"Nationwide immigrants, even illegal immigrants, are half as likely to commit crimes for which they are incarcerated as US-born Americans. This includes serious traffic crimes. In California, immigrant drivers generally, as well as immigrants with temporary commercial driver's licenses, average about 25% fewer fatal crashes. In Texas, illegal immigrants commit fewer felonies on the roads. This is partly explained by immigrants having substantially lower rates of alcohol abuse. Some immigrants do commit crimes, but since immigrants overall reduce the crime rate, immigration reduces the likelihood that any one of us will be harmed."
BREAKING: DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin now says that ICE will be arresting people at polling places on election day. Specifically:
"ICE isn't there to patrol the polling places, we're there to enforce specific threats. The only reason why we would be at polling places if there is a threat to that polling place or we're serving a warrant on someone that we have been actively tracking down."
This is why they killed Democrats in the streets. This is why they keep arresting American citizens. They want Democrats to be too scared to show up at the polls on Election Day.
Explosive exchange on Epstein.
Madeleine Dean: "You're under oath. When will you comply with the law and release all the Epstein files?"
Todd Blanche: "We have complied with the law." Dean: "There are three million more documents. And you know what you told me? 'They include someone else named Epstein.' No one believes that."
Committee announces her time is up.
Madeleine Dean: "Excuse me? How am I being cut off after only two minutes? The truth is, the president lied about being on Epstein's plane, and the unredacted files prove it. There's a lot of evidence here. Everything is being covered up."
🚨 BREAKING:
Kelly: "When Trump was bankrupting the Taj Mahal casino, I was taking fire over Iraq... When Trump was writing birthday wishes to Epstein, I was among the first to arrive at the scene to recover the bodies of my fellow astronauts... When Trump was pushing conspiracy theories against President Obama, I was sitting beside my wife's hospital bed... I've been through far worse in service to my country. The president and Pete Hegseth will not silence me."
The mask is off, Netanyahu just admitted the entire Trump administration has committed Treason on national TV. Netanyahu is openly bragging about controlling Trump and manipulating his administration into going to war with Iran.
🚨MAJOR BREAKING: Rep. Pat Ryan just revealed that Pete Hegseth ordered military members to an area in Kuwait with an ACTIVE WARNING they had ZERO defense against drone attacks and he IGNORED IT.
Six were then KILLED. Survivors blame Hegseth.
This is even WORSE
A Tarrant County voter confronted GOP officials after they voted to close 92 polling places before the midterms:
“Nothing you can do can stop us from removing you in November.”
Hidden camera recording catches a data center developer in Piedmont, Oklahoma saying it doesn’t matter if residents oppose his data center project
The reason their city was chosen was because of the power infrastructure they need, resident outrage doesn’t matter
Resident “I mean, but the citizens here are telling you that they don't want you here. Do, do you like going to communities where you're not really wanted?”
Developer “Um, we work in a lot of different communities and have a lot of different reactions” (obviously negative reactions)
Resident “But these people are clearly showing you that they don't want you here. So do you not think that when a citizens in a, in a community shows you that they don't want you here in their town, that maybe you should look to go locate your business elsewhere?”
Developer “We look for strong spots on the grid, and that's what we have here”
Resident “So you're just basically here not because you like the city of Piedmont, but because you like the power infrastructure and things like that?”
Developer “The power infrastructure is very good”
They openly admit they don’t care about the residents, they don’t care about the town or the issues the data center will cause, they are here for the power
Pritzker: I have to worry about whether people can eat lettuce or blueberries off a grocery shelf because Trump is doing away with food inspections.
I have to track measles outbreaks because the president put a madman in charge of vaccine recommendations.
I have to monitor the movements of ICE agents because he handed guns to people who couldn’t pass a background check, frankly, to work in an animal shelter.
I have to find money that we don’t have to fight problems that didn’t exist before Donald Trump. It’s the reality of being a governor in America today. I’m not the only one.
Wait. So a woman in the military was raped by her commanding officer, because he used his key to sneak into her quarters, and a judge just decided that being raped was "one of her duties" and declared it a workplace accident??????????
Who the fuck is this judge? How does one even come to that conclusion??
So when you read about eight members of an NBC News Team being beaten by Israeli settlers today in the West Bank, it's important to note two things:
1. The settler wouldn't do this to Americans had they not received a green light from the Israeli gov.
2. Israel's gov would not have given such a green light unless it felt confident that the US gov - and Amb. Huckabee - wouldn't lift a finger to defend the Americans.
Trump said he was "draining the swamp" and fired 3,000 people at CDC... 3,500 at FDA... and 11,000 food safety officials.
Now: 160+ food recalls... 24,000 sick... 740 hospitalized... and several dead.
The corruption is killing us. Literally.
🚨 BREAKING:
Chaos erupted at a private event for Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis when a protester shouted:
"Is this your fucking legacy? You're bowing to a child molester! You're a child molester! Epstein's actions don't disappear.
Release the Epstein files."
@reppocalypse@luanne527@DemocraticWins You need to be neutered don't you? I bet you do territorial pissings too after you participate in your weekly limp biscuit eating session with your bros. You clearly don't have any functioning brain cells firing in that skull.
