Notice how it's always "America was founded on Christian principles!" until it comes to welcoming the immigrant, helping the poor, feeding the hungry, bringing healthcare to the sick, forgiving debts, caring for our planet, laying down our swords, or loving our neighbors.
The documents & notes Trump is referring to in his speech were largely intended to round up everything the US government had information about that could potentially be considered, per a source w/ direct knowledge.
After analysis, the intel community decided to either incorporate them in the 2021 minority report or assessed -- based on verbiage in the documents themselves -- were not concrete enough to view as consequential enough, the source said.
There you have it. The Republican platform for 2026: Dems are communists & the only reason they’ve won elections is because China rigged them.
Hopefully you won’t notice that the economy sucks & you are paying more for rent/gas/groceries because Republicans started another war.
“Our identity as a nation – unlike many other nations – is not determined by geography or ethnicity, by soil or blood. Being an American involves the embrace of high ideals and civic responsibility.
We become the heirs of Thomas Jefferson by accepting the ideal of human dignity found in the Declaration of Independence. We become the heirs of James Madison by understanding the genius and values of the U.S. Constitution. We become the heirs of Martin Luther King, Jr., by recognizing one another not by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character.”—George W. Bush
Happy 250th, America! 🇺🇸
AOC: The Republican Party’s brand is fear. And they have to constantly churn out what they want people to be afraid of—to be afraid of socialists, to be afraid of immigrants, to be afraid of women. They constantly want Americans in fear of somebody because, if you are not afraid of someone who is your neighbor, you’re going to realize who’s actually pickpocketing you.
And that is the large corporations that are engaged in profiteering and jacking up your prices for no good reason. It’s going to be this administration that is engaged in record levels of swindling, theft, tariffs, and attacks on your housing.
And so this is kind of their new thing of the day. But I think that people are feared out. I think everyone’s nerves are shot from constantly being taught and told what country, person, or community to be afraid of. And they just want a solution. They want their groceries to be more affordable. They want to figure out how we’re going to get health care. They want our housing to get under control.
And I think that we’re ready for an affirmative vision, and we’re ready for an affirmative agenda.
Fox is mad because Obama accurately described American history.
The founders did lay the groundwork for democracy.
They also left slavery intact and denied full rights to millions of people.
That is not “attacking America.”
That is understanding why the Constitution says “a more perfect union” — because the work was never finished.
Patriotism is not pretending the country was perfect.
It’s caring enough to keep improving it.
@MillsTwitch@PeteGoldingBrnr More people would complain if they did “look for work”. The cheese in H2H when your linemen just abandon one side would be ridiculous. Any of those two defenders in VID1 would have a free run
