The profound ignorance and, just as often, brazen disregard for the law by this administration is astonishing.
Fascist leaders often send their asinine toadies to bray loudly about the specter of communism when they want to create a smokescreen for their own despicable, corrupt, and often illegal misconduct.
So, exactly how does one defend the indefensible? (Maybe Trump gave him some pointers during their weekend phone call.)
This is the kind of utter hokum that a profoundly ignorant person resorts to when he doesn't get his way but wants the world to think that, despite all evidence to the contrary, he actually has intelligence.
Ignorance is fascinating to watch. So, Trump sees himself as Atlas, holding up the world? Obviously, he has no clue that Atlas was actually being eternally punished for daring to challenge the gods. He was no hero; he was the loser in a war!
The fact that he still thinks respect can be demanded, rather than earned, Is further evidence of his fundamental ignorance.
Nice try, Katie (aka Mrs. Stephen) Miller. Your husband's cowardly, orange, crybaby boss is the undisputed world heavyweight champ of tyranny through lawsuits. (P.S. - if you'd pay attention, you'd see that this particular lawsuit is aimed at stopping Trump's tyrannical shenanigans.)
And there’s the problem. The Cabinet members, congressional representatives, and senators are trying so hard to prove their loyalty to Trump that they’re ignoring their primary duty to be loyal to the laws and constitution of the United States.
To paraphrase the immortal Forrest Gump, “I’m not a smart man, but I do know what rank corruption and an ongoing criminal enterprise look like.”
These caterpillars are devouring every milkweed leaf in sight as they get ready to go into their chrysalis stage, from which they will emerge as monarch butterflies.
Springtime is in full swing in central NC. We’ve got newly-hatched eastern bluebirds, black-capped chickadees, tufted titmice, and barred owls in nesting boxes all over the property, as well as this pair of 3-day old northern cardinals whose mom built her nest in a climbing rose bush.
Wait, hasn’t Trump been braying for quite a while that Iran’s navy was “completely destroyed” and that its ships were at the bottom of the ocean?
You have to wonder whether it has occurred to Dear Leader that the Strait of Hormuz was fully open and operational until he and Netanyahu began bombing Iran "back to the Stone Age." 🤡
Why aren't the Dem leaders and the media getting this word out every day?
The toddler who professes to be such a devout Christian, even to the point of claiming to be anointed by God to save America, posts crap like this after a fellow human being dies. Moreover, none of his minions has the decency and courage to speak against his heresy. Come, Lord Jesus.
What makes Andy Ogles, a self-proclaimed Christian nationalist, think that his hateful rhetoric and unChristlike worldview belong in American society?
Might as well choose bombing targets this way: "Magic 8 Ball, should we bomb that school full of young girls, just in case there might be some bad people in it who might hate us?"
Lesson #1: Internet content never goes away. Whatever you post, expect that you will see it again, someday....and at the most inopportune time.
