For reference, they did this ON MEMORIAL DAY and their X feed otherwise makes no reference to our brave war dead.

Democrats hate America. There is simply no other logical conclusion to derive from the abject madness below.

Barbara Walters once wrote that many Americans have forgotten — and many others were never taught — how Jane Fonda’s actions during the Vietnam War were viewed by countless POWs and veterans. One of the most widely repeated accounts comes from Air Force pilot Jerry Driscoll, a POW held in the “Hanoi Hilton.” According to the story, he was cleaned up and forced to appear before Jane Fonda during her visit to North Vietnam. When ordered to praise his captors’ “humane treatment,” he instead spat at her. He was reportedly beaten severely afterward, suffering injuries that permanently affected his vision and ended his flying career. Another former POW, Colonel Larry Carrigan, described how prisoners secretly passed Jane Fonda slips of paper containing their Social Security numbers in hopes of proving to the world they were alive. The story claims she later handed those papers over to North Vietnamese officers, resulting in brutal beatings for the men involved. Carrigan survived. Others allegedly did not. Former civilian adviser Michael Benge, who was imprisoned for more than five years, also spoke publicly about his experience. He said he agreed to meet with Fonda because he wanted to tell her the truth about the treatment POWs endured — not the “humane and lenient” image being presented for propaganda purposes. According to Benge, he was severely punished before any meeting could happen. For many veterans and military families, Jane Fonda’s 1972 trip to Hanoi became a symbol of betrayal during a painful chapter in American history. While supporters viewed her as an antiwar activist protesting U.S. policy, critics believed her actions crossed the line into giving aid and comfort to America’s enemy during wartime. Decades later, the anger and controversy surrounding “Hanoi Jane” still remain powerful for many who served, suffered, or lost loved ones during the Vietnam War. Whatever one’s political views may be, the experiences of POWs and veterans deserve to be remembered and treated with respect.

@mirandadevine Talk to Jessica Tarlov.

I wish women with vocal fry would stay off the airwaves until they realize how silly they sound. This bizarre affectation is like fingernails down a blackboard. It does not make you sound authoritative or strong, only weak and insecure.

@Suzierizzo1 Johnny Carson. Hands down.

@atensnut The middle one. Openly hates America and Americans.

Which of them was our country’s WORST FIRST LADY?

My thoughts go out to Tulsi Gabbard and her family, as her husband battles this serious health problem. I hope and pray that he makes a speedy and full recovery. While the circumstances around her departure are deserving of our sympathy, let’s be clear: Tulsi Gabbard’s only positive contribution to our nation's national security is her resignation. She politicized intelligence. She dismantled critical agencies keeping Americans safe. She weaponized the IC to pursue baseless election fraud claims. And more. We must ensure that her tenure — marked by a devotion to the person of the president and not to the security of the country — represents a terrible exception at DNI and not the new normal.

@SenAdamSchiff What a completely crappy post. It says so much more about YOUR character (or lack thereof) than hers.

@MeghanMcCain Well said, Meghan!

You have been in office since I was 17 years old. Your career is nothing more than failed impeachments. The day you leave office everyone will immediately forget you ever existed. You inspire no one. Stand for nothing - and have no influence outside of the msnow greenroom.

@AngelinaReagan7 Seriously? Yes, I was alive — and still am.

Was anyone alive for the 200 Anniversary? 1976??? 🇺🇸🇺🇸

We need more Carson, less Kimmel.

Whoever dubbed this is great! 🐶😂

Dear GOP, I know I'm new to this movement. I'm not anyone important, I'm just a regular voter who started paying attention. ...and I'm trying to figure out WHAT IN THE HELL is going on with you Because honestly... I'm really confused. From where I am, it looks like you're sitting on the EASIEST WINS IN MODERN POLITICAL HISTORY and for some reason... you just won't take them. Why aren't you forcing daily votes on clean, single-issue bills that everyone already agrees on? Mandatory voter ID. Defunding fraud. Defunding the Taliban. Stuff that polls through the roof and the stuff normal people agree on. Why aren't you at LEAST trying to win? I don't understand. Why are you betraying the same people who gave you a mandate... a few months ago??? Why are you still funding fraud?! Why are you still funding NGOs that HATE conservatives?! Why are some of you trying to push MASS AMNESTY FOR ILLEGAL ALIENS?! I keep trying to assume there's some smart reason I just can't think of... some masterful long game ...but it doesn't look like a long game to me It looks A HELL OF A LOT like corruption. It looks like you'd rather lose comfortably than win for the America people, uncomfortably. It looks like you're more scared of making Democrats a little sad, than you are of disappointing the people who put you in power. I cannot for the life of me figure out how that math works in your favor... unless there's corruption at play. You tell people like me to show up. You have said things like... Speak up! Vote! Donate! Volunteer! Bring our friends along! AND WE HAVE!!! BUT WE NEED YOU TO DO SOMETHING, ANYTHING AT ALL, FOR US. Use the power that was JUST given to you and FORCE THE VOTES. Make the other side go on the record OVER AND OVER. Enforce the talking filibuster. PASS THE SAVE ACT!!! DEFUND THE TALIBAN. STOP PUSHING MASS AMNESTY FOR ILLEGALS. You won... would you PLEASE start acting like it?! Because if you're not even going to try, I genuinely don't know what we're doing here. Sincerely, A brand new conservative who isn't going anywhere, but really, REALLY needs you to start fighting.

There’s a generation a lot of people forget exists. We were born at the tail end of the Boomers, but we are not culturally the same as people born in the 40s and early 50s. We are Generation Jones. And honestly, it explains a lot. We grew up in a world that still felt fundamentally analog, but we were young enough to be dragged headfirst into the digital revolution. We are the bridge generation between rotary phones and smartphones, between slide rules and AI, between Walter Cronkite and algorithm driven media. We remember when there were only a few television channels and the entire country watched the same thing at the same time. We also adapted to the internet, email, forums, social media, streaming and now artificial intelligence. We lived before and after the technological singularity hit everyday life. That is not a small thing. People born in the 40s came of age in a post World War II America that was still industrial, deeply hierarchical and institutionally stable. Their formative years were shaped by the Cold War, Vietnam, the civil rights era and a society where information moved slowly. Generation Jones came later. We inherited the aftermath of all of that. We were the kids who watched Watergate destroy blind trust in government. We watched manufacturing begin to collapse. We saw divorce rates explode. We were the first truly latchkey generation in massive numbers. We learned independence early because many of us had to. We grew up with one foot in old America and one foot in whatever this new thing was becoming. We played outside until the streetlights came on but we also learned DOS commands. We learned cursive and keyboarding. We had card catalogs and Google searches. We went from vinyl records to cassette tapes to CDs to MP3s to streaming in one lifetime. We remember maps. We remember memorizing phone numbers. We remember life before GPS and before every human interaction became filtered through a screen. And because of that, I think Generation Jones developed a very unique perspective. We are adaptable because we had no choice but to adapt. We learned technology as adults instead of being born into it. We remember a slower world but were forced to survive in a rapidly accelerating one. That creates a very different mindset than either older Boomers or younger Gen X and Millennials. A lot of us also reject the caricature people now associate with “Boomers.” We were not buying houses for the cost of a sandwich in 1965. The interest rate on my first house was over 14% and that was after buying down a point. Many of us got hit by recessions, outsourcing, pension collapses and economic instability just like younger generations did. We watched promises evaporate in real time. We understand older generations because we were raised by them. We understand younger generations because we had to evolve alongside them. That’s why the Jones generation often feels culturally homeless. We are rarely discussed, rarely defined and usually lumped into categories that don’t actually fit us. But we exist. We are the human transition point between the industrial age and the digital age. And frankly, there will probably never be another generation quite like us again.

@BreakerOfChains @RealJamesWoods What part of “Judge not, lest ye be judged” is not understood?

That is like saying that the Jewish people are struck down from ever being saved. I run into this continuously regarding Israel. As being a Christian Zionist, I have actually been told that I am going to hell. What part of this makes sense? I post scriptural based prayers every day on this platform, I believe in the whole word of God. Jesus Christ is my Savior. He is coming back and when He does He is coming to Jerusalem. My relationship with the Almighty is a personal one. It is between me and Him. I share this with others, because of my brothers and sisters who do not believe in the power of a loving, saving Lord. And because that is what the Lord commands. I am supposed to love and be a witness of the power of the Lord through my own experience. Those who peddle hate I call them out. The very thing that Jesus Christ came into this world for, was the sick and broken hearted, the poor in spirit. Those who seek to tell others about their relationship with God need to look to their own relationship with Him. Far be it for me to tell anyone the error of their ways unless they attack me simply for being His messenger.

Tell me your thoughts on this. Everyone else is behaving rudely and quite frankly rather stupidly regarding this topic. You seem to have something of value to say.

@RealJamesWoods Oh my. This internal division is just what no one needs.
