We thought everyone could use some good ethics news: the Senate confirmed President Biden’s nominee to serve as head of the Office of Government Ethics, giving him a term that will last through President-elect Trump’s tenure. https://t.co/HhE88EGhy2
Pete Hegseth is the epitome of white privilege. A weekend anchor on Fox and Friends, a Major in the National Guard will be the head of the most powerful military in the history of the world. The military is suppose to be apolitical. Pete Hegseth is purely political. Together with Trump they want to purge “woke” generals. That is UNAMERICAN. There are men and women with more experience at the Pentagon than he has been alive. A platoon leader now over the Pentagon. Republicans complained about DEI programs promoting incompetence and those who are unqualified. This is the height of hypocrisy. I will not be silent with the governance we are entering. That is the role of the opposition party. We lost the election, not our purpose.
Even forever has its duration.
During the war, I saw cruelty not
only from russians, but from people from different parts of the world who
called themselves “I am your friend, forever”.
When these people are tired of supporting me or Ukraine, they try to find ridiculous excuses. More often, they blame me for something.
Why? We all want to be seen (even by ourselves) as kind personalities.
Please don't do it. If you are tired, leave. Leave with dignity.
@shannonrwatts I hear you and understand your point. At the same time, you’d be 1000% more effective in any role the convict has filled and is yet to fill.
When you put someone in power because they don’t care about the same people you don’t care about, the only certainty is that you will soon find out that they don’t care about you either.
To recap, the Republican Party has opposed:
-Paid sick leave
-Paid family & medical leave
-Universal childcare
-Universal pre-K
-Tax increases on corporations & the rich
-The expanded Child Tax Credit
-Student debt relief
Doesn't sound like the party of the working class to me.
@VABVOX I seriously won’t watch or listen to any news program. Not even “light” shows like the Today Show. I don’t want to listen to any of it and I especially don’t want to see or hear the convict and his cronies.
Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker is combing through hundreds of pages of Project 2025 — shoring up legal resources and finding ways to further expand reproductive rights and environmental protections.

I don't fault anyone for suspecting the guy, who was criminally indicted for trying to steal the 2020 election, might have stolen the 2024 election.
You'd be naive not to suspect foul play.
He is the architect of distrust in our institutions, the sower of doubt in our election processes, the catalyst of our national discord.
Rather than spend endless hours pontificating on why he won, the media should spend their time verifying the results.
Maybe then they'll get people to actually tune in.
