SCOOP β Body camera footage obtained as a result of my lawsuit against the DC Metropolitan PD confirms DOGE and the Trump administration openly admitted they were entering private property when they raided the building on March 17, 2025. That didn't stop MPD from breaking down the doors.
My report:
After a year of berating and humiliating Ukraine, we could really use their help with drone warfare.

Youβve got to be kidding me. We have totally unserious, completely incompetent people taking us into mindless deadly war.

The number of new enemies to America, many likely prone to radicalization, who will swear retribution against us, which sentiments will remain for decades to come, is countless.

Today's abysmal jobs report is a reminder that tax cuts for corporations and the rich donβt create jobs or grow the economy.
What's required is investment in working people β and better wages.
When workers have money to spend, the economy grows and businesses create more jobs.
Remember this.
Chums! Baby Dog here. Iβm off to the Groomer now. I do love Natalie but Iβm not keen on the Groom. Wish me luck. I wish you could come with me β€οΈ #dogs
Today, Virginia is the only U.S. state where someone convicted of any felony loses their right to vote for life, unless it is personally restored by the governor.
Lawmakers this year advanced a constitutional amendment to repeal that rule.

Whatever you think is going on in those concentration camp warehouses, it's worse. There's a reason they won't let anyone in.
The rest of the world isn't commenting on a country who makes people of color disappear off the streets?
Well, that's wrong, isn't it?
exactly: Democrats overwhelmingly supported the war powers resolutions because it is painfully clear that the White House lacks a clear strategy on Iran. We can stand with our allies, including Israel, without launching a war with no clear objectives or end. open.substack.com/pub/contrari...

βAs of Tuesday night, Democrats have overperformed in 253 of 283 key elections since 2025, and Democratic turnout reached levels we have not seen in decades.β
Yay!
a white doodle mix wearing a pink collar with a blue tag sits on tile floor in front of blue cabinets. her front left leg is shaved revealing a wild break that has resulted in an almost 90-degree angle of her leg. she hovers the paw gingerly and looks at the camera with dark eyes.
an x-ray of the doodle's leg shows a break in one bone and a bend in another.
the doodle lays on an orange mat on an exam table while one vet tech in black holds her and another vet tech inspects her front right leg.
This is Thea. She was found as a stray with a severely disfigured front leg. X-rays showed she suffered several fractures as a puppy that were never treated, leaving her in constant pain. She needs multiple orthopedic surgeries to correct the deformity. You can help her below β€οΈβπ©Ή

How can so many people in positions of influence in our society somehow think it is ok for a US president to think he can simply pick and choose world leaders, launch wars, claim territory, seize assets, wherever he wants whenever he wants? This is madman movie villain behavior. Absolutely nuts.
these hubristic shitwits all thought Iran was going to be a one-and-done like Venezuela. they thought Iranβs government would fold like a pack of cards after a single dayβs bombing β and now that itβs obvious that this ill-planned donβt-call-it-a-war is going to drag on for god knows how long, they havenβt a single fucking clue what to do about skyrocketing gas prices.
not one of these let's-bomb-Iran morons realized that warring with the country that controls the Strait of Hormuz would result in super-high gas prices, and now they have no fucking clue how to deal with it. thank you for your attention to today's super-angry post. link is here: bit.ly/3OUkNXV

A bunch of puerile frat boys, getting off on killing people. I do not have the vocabulary to express my disgust for this.
The Trump administration is doing more harm to America in months than the Iranian regime has managed to achieve in decades. Destroying the countryβs standing at home and abroad.
