President Trump called the woman pictured below a “loser” for being captured. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and DOGE ordered her service history to be deleted from the Department of Defense archives because she was “DEI” and “woke.”

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

Sometimes, when he fails badly enough, Trump can be forced to do the thing he says he never does: back down.
Today is just one more turn on the roller coaster - but it is more evidence of why we can't give up or let up.

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!

Good morning.
DOGE is fake and not a real agency.
Please quit pretending it’s real

It’s about damn time. AOC is a hero. She’s one of the best out there, fighting daily against Trump’s fascist bullshit.

Believe all women! Senators Hirono, Gillibrand, and Duckworth were so brave to take down predator Pete. Female government workers like me will also resist Trump's MAGA Christofascism: democracydefender2025.s…

''This is the problem though: If Donald Trump is the standard by which everybody else is judged, by definition nobody can be unqualified. The standards have been set so low that the bar currently resides at the molten core of the earth.''
Some folks would call that hell. I would tend to agree.

He needs his kind around him. And anyone who dares think they are better - Joni Ernst, defender of warrior women who have been sexually assaulted- will cower in fear and relinquish any dignity they ever had.
He broke her.
I think she really is afraid. She showed her reluctance in December and was worked over.
I have been put in some tough spots in my career and my response was to continue to do what's right even if I lost my job, but everyone is not built the same.
Broken manifests itself differently for each and every one of us. I'm disappointed in her, but I pity her as well.
I was always awed by the immensity of the next task placed before me. Yes even afraid. But it made me always go back to the basics of what I know how to do in my sleep. Apply the Scientific process, come up with alternatives for action, see who wants to play which alternative, form the team and go at it without holding back. Make sure you have the best team possible. Don't give a inch, unless it's part of the plan. In Battle, yes there are many forms of battle during implementation. In Battle r…
That's the thing; he is too arrogant to be afraid. He is vulnerable to suggestion by those with a separate agenda without the critical thinking skills to be able to decide whether what he's being told is true or not. If he doesn't read his briefings, how is he informed enough to make important decisions? I doubt anyone would have voted for him if they knew about his lack of regard for the immense amount of responsibility his position implies. If he were a Democrat, they would skewer him worse t…
And that is his biggest weakness, and our biggest Challenge. I grew up having to deal with bullies. I learned quickly, after being pounded into the ground a few times. When I learned that they are not afraid, I changed my approach.
No Dennis, I didn't. I never really had that feeling again after that phase of my childhood. I had/have found another way to deal with bullies. But I did feel some confusion and stress. Are so many of my country persons so hurt and aggrieved that they have checked out of, what I consider, reality?
What did you feel or think?
Complete and total exhilaration!
Yes I believe you are correct that many people are not in touch with reality. I’m speaking of many people on the left and several RINOs on the right. We have a mandate. 77 million people are on the correct side of this. Look no further than the delusional democrat senators that have lost total touch with reality. Look no further than anyone that believes that Biden is not cognitively declined. Look at his speech last night where he chastised anybody that doesn’t …
Ah yes, there you go. I thought so when I saw "Patriot" and Arizona in your profile. My daughter espouses the same positions you do. So why are you on this Comment site? Peeking in next door? Naughty naughty.😆
I do hope you read my Blog below as carefully as I read yours. We seem to share a common disdain of what has been going on in Washington for too long. They get great healthcare, big salaries, so many privileges, while the rest of us have/had to work our asses off just to keep our noses above water. There has definitely been something very wrong in America for some time. Maybe we just see the "Who" differently. I think it's about time we stopped the shit slinging between Americans and all really understand what is happening to our beautiful country. Thank you for your concern.
Dennis, have you ever heard of the "Identitarian Movement" which Elon Musk (et al) belong to, and is taking over from MAGA in the US now that he has put his Money behind Trump? They have also infiltrated many of the right wing and CINO (christian in name only) movements in Europe (Austria, Hungary, Germany, France, Italy...). How do you feel about that, and do you think they actually give a hoot about many of your real MAGA concerns?
V. Ramaswamy is also an Identitarian, and he obviously thinks your "kind" are inferior and to be held separately in their Apartheid Ideology. Our new Vice President is also part of that group, recruited by Thiel and his own wife a while ago. His wife teaches him the NEW Bible (written by Spengler and updated by people like Curtis Yarvin) and Theil gives him his first jobs to keep him in the loop. Quite the takeover in my view.
The guy who came up with the Ideology /Oswald Spengler) wrote a book in 1923 "Der Untergang des Abendlandes" (The decline of the West). It's kind of their, and now your "Bible". MAGA as with AfD in Germany have been undermined by these people who usually stay in the background (their ideology includes "not ever being elected" to public office). A lot of good, smart patriots joined the AfD in Germany too, but left the fold when they found out what and who was happening. Even the AfD's early leader, Frauke Petry ( en.wikipedia.org/wiki/F… ) quit the party in disgust when she saw what was happening to it in 2017. Trump is just too $$$hungry to quit now, though. These people do bring 100's of billions of $$ to re-elect and "feed" him. But you probably knew all that?
