@locuta Hopelijk klagen ze dan Ivanka aan als onderdeel van die criminele organisatie: youtu.be/O3FrppDbFDg?si…

Musk noemt USAID vandaag een criminele organisatie. USAID redt wereldwijd miljoenen levens, door het bestrijden van HIV/AIDS, Ebola, door het uitdelen van vaccinaties, voedselhulp, noodhulp na rampen, regelen van schoon drinkwater, etc.

We currently do not have an FAA Administrator, because the previous one was forced out by the billionaire who got Trump elected and was given unchecked authority in return. He was forced out because he tried to fine the billionaire's space company for operating unsafely.

@lisamurkowski Well done!

Since Mr. Hegseth’s nomination last November, I have met with him and carefully reviewed his writings, various reports, and other pertinent materials. I closely followed his hearing before the Senate Armed Services Committee and gathered substantial feedback from organizations, veterans, and Alaskans. After thorough evaluation, I must conclude that I cannot in good conscience support his nomination for Secretary of Defense. I did not make this decision lightly; I take my constitutional responsibility to provide advice and consent with the utmost seriousness. I commend Pete Hegseth’s service to our nation, including leading troops in combat and advocating for our veterans. However, these accomplishments do not alleviate my significant concerns regarding his nomination. Managing the Department of Defense requires vast experience and expertise as the department is one of the most complex and powerful organizations in the world, and Mr. Hegseth’s prior roles in his career do not demonstrate to me that he is prepared for such immense responsibility. His leadership of two veteran organizations was marked with accusations of financial mismanagement and problems with the workplace culture he fostered. Although he has recently revised his statements on women in combat since being nominated, I remain concerned about the message that confirming Mr. Hegseth sends to women currently serving and those aspiring to join. Women have served our nation with distinction, overcoming immense obstacles to excel in combat and leadership roles, and they deserve to know that their leader honors and values their commitment to our nation. While the allegations of sexual assault and excessive drinking do nothing to quiet my concerns, the past behaviors Mr. Hegseth has admitted to, including infidelity on multiple occasions, demonstrate a lack of judgment that is unbecoming of someone who would lead our armed forces. These behaviors starkly contrast the values and discipline expected of servicemembers. Men and women in uniform are held accountable for such actions, and they deserve leaders who uphold these same standards. Above all, I believe that character is the defining trait required of the Secretary of Defense, and must be prioritized without compromise. The leader of the Department of Defense must demonstrate and model the standards of behavior and character we expect of all servicemembers, and Mr. Hegseth’s nomination to the role poses significant concerns that I cannot overlook. Given the global security environment we’re operating in, it is critical that we confirm a Secretary of Defense, however, I regret that I am unable to support Mr. Hegseth.

Amen

We need to talk about what happened last night. I asked Trump's UN nominee, who wants to lead an effort to combat antisemitism at the UN, what she thought about Elon's Musk's Nazi salute and the celebration of it by domestic neo-Nazi and white supremacist groups.

@AmoneyResists @locuta ....

If you don’t understand just how unqualified Pete Hegseth is to be Secretary of Defense, listen to this former sniper explain it after watching Hegseth’s hearing:

And Trump expects everyone to believe HE’S the one who’s been unfairly targeted—MAGA actually believes him. This is spot on!

Donnie heeft goed naar Bernie geluisterd:

@locuta Wat goed dat je dit zo benoemt, gebeurt in mijn optiek te weinig!

Ik heb recent Führer und Verführer gezien, over de propagandatactieken van Goebbels. Samen met een holocaustoverlever. Als je dan naar de retoriek kijkt die in de hedendaagse politiek wordt gebruikt dan kan ik maar één ding zeggen: STOP met normaliseren wat niet normaal is!

@meiselasb 100% @meiselasb !

We may agree or disagree on politics or some issues, but I hope you found that our coverage of the Trump criminal trial met the moment and was focused on the facts, the law, and the evidence and that we had some of the most experienced former prosecutors and top lawyers in the nation to give objective and thorough analysis of every facet of the case.

Wat zou de wereld er toch een stukje mooier uitzien wanneer iedereen bij aankomst achteruit zou inparkeren.

Donald Trump took out a full page ad in the NYT calling for Yusef Salaam and the wrongfully convicted Central Park Five to be put to DEATH. Even after they were exonerated Trump still supported his original statement. Today Yusef Salam was just elected to the NYC City Council
