I identify. It's ok, Nancy. I'm thinking about Bob Dylan's "The times they are a changin'!"

Oh yes. My husband, now passed, was a combat medic, Purple Heart recipient, would be (as I am) so ashamed of our govt right now. I am always speaking up for him.

I thank him for his service. It pains me to see how horribly our veterans are being treated by this regime, like them putting their lives on the line for our freedom didn't matter. Disgraceful!!!

@ Ms. Cathy Delia -- Yes, we agree with you. I suspect there is going to be "blowback" the likes of which Dumpy and Company have no idea. Frightening to be truthful. These women and men fought, bled and some died or came home without all parts--and this dummy in the WH thinks he can treat them any old way? Foolish on his part!!!

Ed, I was amazed at the number of veterans out there with us on 4/5 in a ruby red area. And angry would be an understatement.

Yes, Mike. Thank you for sharing. This administration is pure crazy to mess with cops or vets (we have both in our family). They (the administration bigwigs) are literally playing with what they hope is their tomorrow. Too many have sacrificed, too many have gone through the hardest of times and lost loved ones here at home and in the field. Angry? That ain’t the word (as you said!).

I for one would not want to meet anybody wearing a military or law enforcement uniform unless I was doing it with the utmost of respect. Obviously, this administration has none. And, as quiet as it’s kept—I believe there are “others” who’ve taken the oath to protect and serve in different segments of “the protection profession” who are about fed the eff up with this disgusting disrespect for our Democracy. Hint: Water pressure can bust pipes …. Is all I’m sayin’.

Yes, what you said.

I think the next move is to go from the 1200+ locations to maybe 200 and increase the size so those larger cities really feel it.

And then put a few million people in D.C. for 'May Day'. Maybe more than a few, and peacefully, of course.

And Hegseth wants a trillion dollars to buy toys, I guess, and the 🍊 one wants a parade. This is what we're living for???

Nancy, I prefer not to see Melania at all. She's as disrespectable as the rest of them. Even moreso! Wow! She really showed everybody exactly what she thinks of hubby by wearing that hat to cover her face on Inauguration Day. LMAO!!!!

Article I read said that if he wants tanks in the parade it will probably ruin the streets. Such a deal, another bill tax payers get stuck with. Ugh

Nancy, I’m so sorry about the loss of your husband may he rest in peace. I am also so ashamed at the way our vets are treated, it’s despicable. I will also be speaking up for him and all others 💯❤️
