I knew these obnoxious thugs would post something about invading Greenland next, and it turns out it was Mrs. Eichmann. My family’s history includes hard and bloody military service in the defeat of Nazi’s, but I never expected they would return to rule the United States.
WARNING! If you criticize, disagree with or use the Constitution to question whatever Trump and his band of miscreants want to do, YOU WILL BE PUNISHED!!!
"Secretary of War Pete Hegseth said Sen. Mark Kelly, D-Ariz., will receive a formal censure letter and that he has directed Secretary of the Navy John Phelan to review the retired Navy captain's retirement rank and pay and provide a recommendation in 45 days, sharply escalating an investigation alleging he made 'seditious statements' that undermined military operations."
So, if Trump decides to invade Mexico, Greenland, or Canada just STFU and obey orders. The Constitution is what he says it is.
Thank you, Chief Justice Roberts and the other SCOTUS fascists. You have your "unitary executive," or, speaking English, your dictator. You empowered him. Still consider it a smart move? Well, the vast majority of Americans do not. Get off your high horses and do the right goddam thing.
Unfortunately, Roberts is in-step with trump! I used to respect Roberts, but that was until he gave trump permission to do whatever the hell trump wants! The Supreme Court, fighting against the "rule of law", I never thought that I would ever see the day, but here we are!
This is always the fatal flaw ( and there are many )with fascists and fascism. It’s called the purity test.
Mirror, mirror on the wall…….In 2026 who is the purist MAGANAZI of them all?
One derogatory comment. One askance look or action. One editorial or news story that isn’t MAGANAZI enough and……….you’re out. Deported, cancelled, sent to a camp, doxxed, swatted or just plain old redneck harassed at your house or in public. How dare you poison our pure ‘ Murikin blood? Go back to the country you came from. I’ll bet you don’t even own or wear a red hat.
I really wonder if the SCOTUS doesn’t think they will be on the chopping block next if they rule against the orange imbecile and his stooges. Do they think they’re safe? Do they think they’re protected? They should think again because their time is coming. They really don’t understand that we all stand together or surely we will all hang alone.
America the beautiful has become America the ugly. Very, very ugly. Sovereignty for me. Sovereignty not for thee. Evil has taken a seat at the highest of high places.
If "We the People" can't stop this evil, then I wish that our allies would bomb the hell out of all of them! Then maybe, like a phoenix, we can be reborn from the ashes. If that happens, I hope that we will finally learn from all of our mistakes, and truly make America democracy that we can all be proud of! Hope runs eternal!
Until the congress, that’s both houses, pulls their heads out of their collective asses this shit show will continue. We are sickened by it and they are delighted by our distress. In order to correct this, we are going to have to put a lot of them in prison for a very long time, only then will our country be free of those who think they might be able to get away with this shit. Life in prison, no parole for good behavior, the realization of a wasted life, should be our response with no mercy. We can start with his entire cabinet and work our way down through their enablers, he won’t live to see it, but they will as they are much younger. If we do that, the world will line up to thank us for relighting the lamp of freedom once again.
I fear that it might be too late. It seems that all three branches in government, at least at the federal level, has collapsed! They could have stopped trump, by finding him guilty, when he was impeached the first/second time! However, thanks to evil McConnell, not even an invasion on our Capitol, could stop trump! Then the ignorant people reelected this evil regime, again? I will still fight and hope to keep our democracy; but I fear that it might be too late! I am loosing my faith in the America that I knew!
Oof, the next generation resting under a trump logo and corporate branding is quite the visual, but it very accurately describes the corrupt capitalism at hand. I hope all the money worshipping miscreants like moscow mitch and little marco and the biggest fucking ass hat on the supreme court john roberts are pleased with themselves as they count all their money while looking out their mansion windows at people dying and the country burning. (purposely did not capitalize their names, they don't even deserve that much respect)
In the words of Matthew and Luke: You cannot serve both God and Mammon.
We the People need to boycott everything we can and stage Tax Revolt, General Strikes. Protests are fine but not everyone can stand in the cold, travel around to where the biggest one will be and We are getting nowhere with SCOTUS, US Congress, DOJ. WE need to do something more consequential and dramatic. 1-10% has to know WE are not going to live under their thumbs while the refuse to pay living wages, give minimum benefits, cheer for deregulation as they polute everything at will and refuse to pay their fair share because they are buying every government worker they can. A lawless, cruel, unaccountable society falls apart unless WE sacrifice our peaceful, careless, unaware, cannot do anything existence. YES, IT IS HAPPENING ON OUR WATCH AFTER 250 years of BRAVER PEOPLE DEFENDING LAW/ORDER, DEMOCRATIC GOVERNMENT in STATES and D.C. Get busy or give up-your country, family, friends, the future rests on us.
Becca, you sound as frustrated as I do; and probably all of us reading these comments!
I agree with you, WE could probably do many things that will break the back of these fascists! However, it must be a HUGE, united front, all across the United States! What we need is a public figure: like Steve Schmidt, Gavin Newson, Mark Kelly or Jason Crow, anyone who can "rally the troops" as trump rallied the MAGAs. This public figure could then give us doable things that would break the ones in control. All the ideas you mentioned, Becca, seem to be both doable and non-violent, using our civil disobedience! I personally like a federal tax revolt, after all WE are paying these fascists their salaries! We just need massive numbers. It worked for the civil liberty fighters, of the 60's! They had the leaders, and the numbers, that kept growing, and will to stick it out for the long haul! A 250 Revolution!
Protests got us nowhere. This country runs on one engine: MONEY. Our real weapons are boycotts and any action that hits them where it hurts.
We are so lazy and self indulgent that it will be challenging to organize and execute targeted boycotts. They are the only way to get media coverage and results
Agreed, this hair brained scheme will fail. Ironically, Trump and his minions believe that they can control the price of oil by controlling Venezuela’s oil reserves; the largest in the world.
And according to one of Putin’s closest oligarchs, Deripaska, Trump plans to “make sure” that the price of Russian oil “does not rise above $50 per barrel,” and such a scenario threatens Russia’s current economic model (from the Concis-Shankar Narayan).
Therefore, the problem as I see it, is that all of Venezuela’s oil is heavy, dirty oil; requiring billions in investments to rebuild their infrastructure, as well as the fact that it is more expensive to extract and refine than sweet crude or light crude oil.
Therefore, the idea they will be able to hold down global pricing is ludicrous on its face. It will take a decade or more to rebuild their infrastructure necessary to capture all of their oil reserves.
In the meantime, solar and wind are becoming increasingly more inexpensive as technology improves dramatically every two years or so. Not to mention, Venezuela is one of the most violent nations in the world, with a plethora of gangs and warlords, so good luck with that.
Oh, Katie, just who do you think you are? You people in our people’s desecrated White House will be held to account someday. No question about that. I know you are thrilled that the Jan.6 criminals will be back in DC for their 5th year reunion on Jan 6, but more justice is coming no matter how you flaunt and preen your obscenities.
How can we hold lur head up now when we travel. I had planned a trip abroad but will be shitcanning thar now. 20 years I spent serving and defending this country and for what? So a dementia riddled buffoon could turn us into Russia? It is time to take to the streets again!
The most salient point made is that Trump pardons one S. American dictator found guilty of being part of a cartel responsible for sending hundreds of tons of cocaine into the U.S. Shortly after, he risks American lives to capture another dictator suspected of being involved in a cartel sending drugs to our country in order to indict and try him on drug trafficking charges. Clearly he is not taking these steps out of concern for Americans, but as an attempt to control Venezuelan oil and further empower and enrich himself and other America oligarchs.
Why is this FACT, this TRUTH, not banner headlines. Trump and his co-conspirators are destroying our country and hurting people around the world. Where the hell are we headed?
This what happens when no one takes the class clown/dunce seriously. And now here we are, powerless against this bullshit because they are still lying to themselves and to the American people. It’s time for Congress to get its head out of its own ass and come up for air before it’s too late for the entire world.
Steve has posted images of the American Cemetery in Normandy as a reminder of the immense sacrifice of those soldiers. In contrast to the current climate of lawlessness and incompetence these fascists couldn't hold a candle to the leaders of WW2. Eisenhower said we did not come as conquerers but as liberators. My, have things changed.
If the United States annexes Greenland and Americans and its elected leaders accept it, that will be the line crossed in which we truly and profoundly become, “The bad guys.”
I knew these obnoxious thugs would post something about invading Greenland next, and it turns out it was Mrs. Eichmann. My family’s history includes hard and bloody military service in the defeat of Nazi’s, but I never expected they would return to rule the United States.
'Run Venezuela until such time......"? They can't even 'run' the U.S. correctly.
More like RUin.

John Roberts wakes up with a pounding hangover and asks: I did WHAT?!
Unfortunately, Roberts is in-step with trump! I used to respect Roberts, but that was until he gave trump permission to do whatever the hell trump wants! The Supreme Court, fighting against the "rule of law", I never thought that I would ever see the day, but here we are!
This is my own exact experience with this travesty.

They definitely use that term loosely…
You can't even run your own life (country) I'll be darned if you'll run mine
TFG couldn't run a bath, let alone a country.

I was out in the street in the freezing cold protesting these dangerous clowns. We need everyone's voices. Stand witness to this insanity
We have become the abhorrent, depraved regime we claimed other 3rd world, Xi, Putin, etc. of.
You nailed it.

Ask Donald Trump to find Venezuela on a map. Think he could?
The most salient point made is that Trump pardons one S.

And Katie Miller is trash… look what she married.😡
I feel so sorry for their kids.
Those two should have been spayed and neutered before they produced spawn
Really sad for those kids…
