Just end the stupid war.

Wonder how long until Trump throws that loser Hegseth under the bus

Retired Navy Admiral Nancy Lacore, Ousted by Hegseth, Projected to Flip South Carolina House Seat as Recount Looms

Nancy Lacore spent 35 years in the Navy before Pete Hegseth removed her. Now a razor-thin margin could send her to Congress.

Hopefully there will be a republican backlash against maga and they will put a new person front and centre.

The core Republicans will drop Trump as soon as they realize he isn’t helping them any more. It’s all transactional for them.

Today is a better day than yesterday....lets allow that to wash over us.

(Yes, then indeed, someone, just anyone, get to work)

Fore sure. It’s the end of Trump’s complete control over everything. This morning does feel like a huge weight has been lifted off our collective chests and that is momentous.

However, the Dems need to seize on this momentum and keep pushing to make the necessary changes… overturn Citizens United, end the tariff wars, raise taxes on the wealthy and fix the budget, negotiate an end to the Iran and Ukraine wars, get a grip on the runaway AI development…and all that is just a start.

But do I believe their leadership has the chutzpah to really push for all of these things…? Or are they going to say all of the right things but then achieve very little, similar to Labour under Blair and Starmer or the EU in general? The amount of drift that has occurred under these liberal elites is as much to blame for the cost of living riots we are witnessing as the right-wing drivel.

I really hope the more progressive wing of the Dems can make some organizational changes and wrestle control of the party away from the geriatrics who have maintained power for the past couple of decades (Schumer, Pelosi, the Clintons etc), and are beholden to the elites. But do I have faith in that happening…?

A rare correct statement from Jeffries.
