Of course advance information on US combat operations is classified. Pretending otherwise is an insult to our troops, who all know this.

The Secretary is unfit to lead.

We live in a time that people are more inclined to obey an unlawful executive order than they are to follow a court order 🤦🏾‍♀️.

Dictators are created due to cruelty, cowardice, & compliance! IF THEIR ASSES will ignore the Supreme Court, we can definitely IGNORE HIM!

I’m going to say something that shouldn’t be controversial but will be. If you are a Christian, you can support border control and immigration being legal vs illegal. You CANNOT celebrate deportations and get off on the cruelty, and be a real Christ follower. Period

Pam Bondi said on Fox that the FBI’s arrest of a county judge is “sending a very strong message.” Yes, Pam, and that message is, this country is being ruled by fascist traitors.

MAGA Republicans are normalizing violent threats

I'd be interested to hear some data as to whether or how much, threats of violence towards politicians has gone up versus down. I think this article conflates the issue of ugly speech with the problem of threats or actual acts of violence. Yes hate speech is an abomination but I honestly can't see how it can be attacked in the US with the First Amendment and I wonder if criticizing those who spout it makes them more angry, reinforces their sense of power ('look I'll do it again and there's nothing you can do about it") and gives unhelpful attention to it. Actual violence or talk that violence is OK is something that can be tackled. I think the US public can take on board the idea that stupid talk means that the crazy people in every society might be moved to do something really dreadful - definitely a worry in a country awash with firearms.
