Rampant mosquitoes swarming the tents. Leaks after summer rainstorms. Excessive heat. And hurricane season around the corner. This is life in "Alligator Alcatraz."

Before you get too excited because there are some Republicans going after Hegseth, remember, this allows them to look β€œreasonable” and not have to attack Trump

Schiff: No, Mike Waltz, you’re the loser. And frankly, the country loses when we have an incompetent bozo like you as the national security advisor.

That is both messed up and disgraceful! You can’t just delete history!

Arlington National Cemetery has removed information about prominent Black, Hispanic, and female service members, as well as topics such as the Civil War, from its website.

Trump Recession Timeline:

1. This will be a Golden Age on Day 1! Prices will come down and economy will boom!

2. These policies won’t cause a recession. We know what we’re doing.

3. Ok, it will cause short-term pain but will be good in long term.

4. This is Biden’s recession!

The Medal of Honor Recipient Erased in the Pentagon's DEI Purge Private 1st Class Harold Gonsalves received the Medal of Honor posthumously for his heroic actions during the Battle of Okinawa in 1945.

Harold Gonsalves threw himself on a grenade to save his fellow Marines during the Battle of Okinawa in World War II. Now Trump's Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is erasing Gonsalves from military databases as part of his anti-diversity purge.

French Senator Claude Malhuret:

"Washington has become Nero’s court, with an incendiary emperor, submissive courtiers and a jester high on ketamine... We were at war with a dictator, we are now at war with a dictator backed by a traitor."

I am looking at a chamber filled with hundreds and hundreds of people, and if you asked me to seriously estimate what percentage of them understand how deep in the s*** we are right now, I mean really truly understand how close America is to full collapse, I would put the number at between 10 and 20

Dear maga,

The global right, who used to admire Trump, has absolutely turned on him and now is openly saying he works for Russia.

The right in Canada has dropped in the polls and now openly distances themselves from you. Same with Germany and UK

You suck

Trump fired hundreds at NOAA, Weather Service. Here’s what that means for forecasts. Current and former agency officials and lawmakers said the cuts could have major impacts on Americans and the economy, compromising important functions.

"Jobs were also eliminated at the National Hurricane Center and Storm Prediction Center... and the tsunami warning centers in Alaska and Hawaii..."

Trump is too much of a coward to say a bad thing to Putin, yet he dares lecture Zelensky?

Russia is on the verge of collapse and Trump/Vance are desperate to save them

Trump and Vance needed to create an incident to provide a justification for their pre-planned abandonment of Ukraine now, then separation from NATO in the near future. That’s what that was all about, and that was always the way a second Trump term was going to go.

Make a huge mistake. Then make a false claim about how you fixed it.

They did it for PEPFAR.

Now Ebola.

I follow this particular topic VERY closely, so here's what really happened and why this isn't true AT ALL...🧡
