SCOOP โ 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:
โSix brave Americans lost their lives in uniform. Their sacrifice deserves honor. Instead, the Secretary of Defense is worried about how their deaths make the president look. That is a grievous insult to every service member who has worn the uniform,โ Vindman said.
โIf a U.S. role were to be confirmed, the strike would rank among the worst cases of civilian casualties in decades of U.S. conflicts in the โMiddle East.โ www.reuters.com/world/middle...
"When I could finally see a therapist, the appointment was scheduled during working hours. I couldnโt emotionally dump my experiences and then return to work as though the previous hour didnโt exist."
I gotta say that "interagency tumult over the employment of counter-drone systems in the U.S." and "turmoil between the military and FAA ... caused, in part, by inadequate information-sharing and data practices across those departments" seem bad.
"The event tied is to the VFWโs โHonor the Contractโ campaign, a major initiative demanding that Congress uphold the legal and moral obligations owed to veterans. That includes specifically defending VA disability benefits and health care."
Does it help that it will be a small pension?
"When veterans become writers, war stories shift. The story moves toward lived ambiguity, and service is not reduced to a single narrative. The difference is not cosmetic. It is tonal. And audiences, especially those who have served, can tell."
โYou are tearing down the walls before determining if they are load-bearing, and veterans will be the ones to be crushed if the structure collapses.โ
They all do this. And it feels like a reflection on the humans behind them, whose inflated careers are built on never admitting they donโt know the answer. The โsmartest people in the roomโ if โsmartโ just means glib and facile, turning out lies with complete conviction.

I wouldโve pegged you as a Yo Gabba Gabba kind of wacky
Study finds ChatGPT Health did not recommend a hospital visit when medically necessary in more than half of cases. www.theguardian.com/technology/2...
Trump on service members getting killed in his war: โThatโs the way it is.โ
Trump when his country called for him to serve: I have bone spurs.
Trumpโs sons: Weโre too busy making billions off daddyโs presidency in the Middle East to waste time as a sucker and loser.
In sum, FIRC is sold to the public as a quick path to stability.
Yet, 120 cases across two centuries suggest it is one of the most reliable ***generators*** of instability outside of interstate war.

NEW: In a statement, VoteVets calls out Donald Trump for recklessly launching an unconstitutional, aimless war with Iran, ignoring warnings and endangering lives while lying to Americans. Republicans must hold him accountable.
When US President Donald Trump addressed the American people on Tuesday night, he claimed that Iran is โworking to build missiles that will soon reach the United States of America.โ
That assertion is not backed up by US intelligence, sources told CNN. https://cnn.it/4tZsgoD
Article I, Section 8

โAs resources, talent and expertise are siphoned away, the VAโs ability to function deteriorates โ creating a self-fulfilling prophecy in which weakened performance is used to justify further destruction of the department" - aka The Death Spiral
Ok now VA actually rescinded the rule which means something vs just making a pinkie promise not to enforce it
But hey - letโs just rush forward as fast as possible! ๐คทโโ๏ธ
You know who kept Iran from getting nuclear weapons? Obama. Trump ripped up that deal and walked away, and here we are today. He's desperately trying to come up with a way to solve a problem that he created out of thin air.
