Thank you. Abandoning South Korea to please Putin and Kim is a disgrace. What’s happening to our sailors is a disgrace. ICE is a disgrace.

Betsy's avatar

The entire administration/regime is a disgrace.

Carol Gamm's avatar

Thank you. This is a disaster.

Betsy's avatar

Yes it is but I’m refusing to give up hope!

Carol Gamm's avatar

Yes! We are not going away.

Betsy's avatar

Exactly! My dad was a Naval officer in WWII. I will never forget his service or have it be remembered in vain! I fight against authoritarianism.

Carol Gamm's avatar

Thank you. My Dad was a paratroop sergeant, 101st Airborne.

Deli Lanoux's avatar

Thank you for sharing this, Betsy.

Dina Gregorio's avatar

That he will conk out soon.

ramonaj's avatar

Jon Ossoff is telling it like it is. With class and the truth. It's very nice to hear. Thank you so much Senator. I loved your speech

Deli Lanoux's avatar

Couldn't have said it better myself.

LHS's avatar

I actually got choked up when I read what he said about North Korea and the joint military exercises, which was the most shameful betrayal of an ally. I also can't shake the feeling that he is setting up the conditions for World War III. 😟

Linda (Evanston IL)'s avatar

I am shaking from head to foot. Just when you think it couldn’t worse it gets just so much worse. 🥲

C Bowlby's avatar

He's already started it, but together we can prevail against his fascist dictatorial control and remove djt&regime. 'We the People ' will never endorse N. Korea as an ally of USA! And never abandon S. Korea!

Joanne Gatsis's avatar

Me too, LHS. It's so messed up and this is all so scary. I hate him so much.

Deli Lanoux's avatar

What a scary thought!!!

Linda (Evanston IL)'s avatar

Is betraying South Korea treason?

C Bowlby's avatar

djt- fumb ducker don the con!

Requires removal from office,ASAP !!!

Joanne Gatsis's avatar

I can't say that I'm not surprised by the betrayal of S. Korea. We all know Trump has a hard-on for dictators. This is absolutely sickening.

C Bowlby's avatar

And N.Korea 'god dictator' is up high on causing mass-murder on his subjects,citizens of N. Korea!

Betsy's avatar

Two people I hope to never have to see or hear again: the newly tatted Nancy Mace and the cowardly and democracy hating Bill Cassidy

bitchybitchybitchy's avatar

Is there something in the water supply in South Carolina that leads to people such as Nancy Mace and the late Lindsay Graham?

Ruthy Wexler's avatar

oh yeah. He is just a wimpy little boy in a man's body. Afraid of his own shadow.

Linda Harris's avatar

And now going all over MSM trying to make excuses for his actions so he can get those jobs lobbying for the big boys. I'm not a doctor, but have a science background and I knew it would be bad to ok RFK, Jr. And of course he knew all about blanche. Those two will be his legacy forever.

Deli Lanoux's avatar

Not even a little boy or a man, just a loser-nobody, a despicable moron, a tyrant who must be ousted.

colo-ski's avatar

I think all this adds up to, the man wants to expose the United States to major terrorist and security threats, or just once everybody in the country dead.

Ohh yeah, based on this video, people are speculating that he's wearing one of these

The Wearable Artificial Kidney (WAK) is an experimental, miniaturized dialysis machine designed to be worn on a belt around the waist. Weighing about 2 to 3 pounds in its newer iterations, it aims to provide continuous blood filtration and fluid removal for patients with kidney failure, freeing them from large, stationary dialysis

Paul Kaufman's avatar

That makes sense. Kidney failure would explain several of his symptoms including leg swelling, swelling around his eyes, and what might be neuropathy.

C Bowlby's avatar

So why hide this condition from the public...?

Mingo's avatar

I've speculated for months that he has stage 3-4 chronic kidney disease, along with cardiac disease. The neuropathy explains why he has carpet in the bathroom. His feet hurt on hard floor or tile. He's a fucked up hot mess.

Alastair McLean's avatar

His body is obviously packing up on him, but his insane narcissism keeps driving him on towards...what? This really isn't going to end well in 100 different ways

Old Uncle Dave's avatar

One person suggested he might be wearing a device like this to help him walk. https://hypershellofficial.com/

I assume none of the "reporters" at the White House will dare to ask about it.

JA's avatar

If Trump were questioned, would he even tell the truth?

Sophia's avatar

The fact that Jeffries can’t say abolish ICE at this point is such an indictment of him. He’s always afraid to take a strong position.

LHS's avatar

Everything he said was weasel-y! Just say something like, "Medicare for all would make sure that every American would have healthcare so no one ever goes bankrupt from medical bills again".

Rico's avatar

He's useless - he and Chuckie need to go!

colo-ski's avatar

We need either convert these establishment, Democrats or just get rid of Em.

C Bowlby's avatar

Jeffries headed for my shit-list! His thinking sounds weakening!

RobWhitH's avatar

He can't say that! You don't want to make the mid-terms about immigration. The only issue Trump has any support close to 50% is immigration. Half the country seems to like what he's doing, though the trend is away from Trump. Jefferies did say what I agree with: no masks, body cams, judicial warrants. That will hamstring these goons, and reduce these unlawful deportations. And the more that people witness arrests at airport boarding gates, the more unpopular this stuff becomes.

Sophia's avatar

This one was particularly bleak. Betraying South Korea, the Navy sailors being treated so badly - women can’t even get menstrual products! How are they supposed to function? Then add in the strategic reserves depletion. I don’t even know what to say anymore.

C Bowlby's avatar

It's looking like djt is a madman in control of our government from where I sit and see...

Must be removed from office

A S A P !!!

Oaktown's avatar

Wanna bet Kegseth and Bone Spurs use that as an excuse to fire a bunch of women from the military?

Oaktown's avatar

Bone Spurs: " ... These exercises ... send a signal that is totally inappropriate and hostile, to a Country that, as long as Donald J. Trump has been President, has been unthreatening and respectful.

Right. That's why they just sent 50,000 MORE soldiers to fight against Ukraine and are allied with Russia and Iran.

BS: " ... While somewhat unrelated (?), I recently asked the President of S. Korea if they would like to join us in the Denuclearization of Iran, and they said, “No thanks!”

So why don't you ask your boyfriend Kim Jong-un?

Linda Harris's avatar

The South Koreans have fought by our side all the way back to VN. I had two friends who wrote to me during their VN tours, and they both talked about how amazing the South Korean soldiers were. Even the VC thought they were tough. And you are right. NK is actively helping the Russians with both men and materiel.

bayjh's avatar

Why is this military obeying the illegal orders of a faux president?

C Bowlby's avatar

Ive' been wondering that since Iran was first bombed?

RobWhitH's avatar

All those guys who had concerns like that have been removed from command.

Joanne Gatsis's avatar

Right. I was watching the video Ben posted on YouTube with Trump's HUGE diaper! Wow!! Either his ass his getting bigger or he is shitting himself more frequently. Damn! HUGE!

Alastair McLean's avatar

Is there a doctor in the house? Because that ain't normal

C Bowlby's avatar

But when it catches on, djt already in the back door!

Joanne Gatsis's avatar

That ass is gigantic 😳

Joanne Herzog's avatar

He may have some sort of a space alien attachment. Stay tuned.

C Bowlby's avatar

51st state- Marz !

LHS's avatar

You just reminded me of this South Park clip: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XZBp0aVQpFU

Barbara Jenkins's avatar

Could it be a bedpan?🙂

C Bowlby's avatar

HAHAHAHA LOL!

Joanne Gatsis's avatar

That's a big ass bed pan. Pun intended.

C Bowlby's avatar

Oh he may rent that shelf to advertisers slogans,discounts,

any of that shit!

Old Uncle Dave's avatar

That thing on his butt could be the power unit for an exoskeleton device to help him walk.

Joanne Gatsis's avatar

If so, more covering up his failing health. I never thought of that though, Uncle Dave. 🤔

Old Uncle Dave's avatar

I didn't either until someone at another site suggested it and I found this. https://hypershellofficial.com/

Barb O's avatar

Oh, geez. Sure way to screw up your body trying to push beyond its' limits. Orange Jesus would love it, though, so, maybe this is it.

It is probably both. His ass is getting humongous and he needs two sizes up on the diapers.

Joanne Gatsis's avatar

It's fucking HUGE! 🫢

Mingo's avatar

I said a couple of weeks back he was looking like Jabba the Hut.

colo-ski's avatar

The so called Prez' despicable behaviour, calling lincoln family members liars in denying every claim that has been made.

David Lubin's avatar

5 simple words...TRUMP IS JUST FUCKING CRAZY! No make that 7...TRUMP AND KENNEDY, JR. ARE JUST FUCKING CRAZY. No wait, add a few more...BLANCHE, HEGSETH, CASSIDY (Oy the doctor to boot)...I could actually go on and on, but you get it. The ships, abandoning S. Korea, OMG, when will it stop? Meanwhile he's playing golf every weekend while half the US floods or is on fire. I wonder how FEMA is doing.

Joanne Herzog's avatar

Sometimes it’s just too much.

C Bowlby's avatar

Its always too much!!!

Vote BLUE 🗳

David Maceira's avatar

Fighting an illegal war. Abandoning our allies. And committing a psychological war on our troops.

National security is in grave danger thanks to incompetent morons.

Wendy Shelley's avatar

Re all of the problems on these naval vessels, whichever kind: the first thing that should be thought of when these admirals come back to the US should be their immediate courts-martial for absolute dereliction of duty to all of the troops. Reinstate Hegseth to his former rank and court martial him first. And the Meidas Mighty should try to get all of this printed and broadcast everywhere in the US, to get accountability for these absolutely incompetent people. And Felon should be held accountable by impeachment or just simply removal from Office. If it sounds like I’m yelling, it’s because I am SO pissed off. Let’s go Meidas!!

JohnC-Va's avatar

Imagine you’re one of the Joint Chiefs, watching these 2 fuckwits literally destroy your militaries. What do you do? Is it time for a coup? At some point, actually we’ve been there for a while now, we are going to have to make a decision; how much more destruction of the entire country are we going to allow? At some point, the rules don’t apply any longer, or we just all hunker down and watch the whole thing go up in smoke. 250 years. Poof! Gone!

Wendy Shelley's avatar

Thanks, John. I said yesterday that the admirals on the ships should just bring them home. They are going to be court martialed either by disobeying Felon’s order to stay in the ME, or by their despicable treatment of their troops. There’s no help for the Lincoln if it has to wait for the ship from the Pacific. Might as well just come home, grow a spine, and let the chips fall where they may. Thanks for your comment!

Linda Harris's avatar

A major problem is that kegsbreath has kicked out the competent military leaders and put his toadies in who obey his orders. He should be impeached and then tried and convicted and the military leaders need to face charges also.

Oaktown's avatar

Kegseth has also kicked out competent JAG lawyers.

Linda Harris's avatar

One of the first things he did was gut the JAG corps. I'm sure he did not want them around as far back as the boat strikes.

Candace's avatar

It's a wonder that there couldn't be another ship that could husband the air craft carriers at sea in instances like this. The husbanding ship could get in whatever the safe distance would be to the carrier and ferry supplies by helicopter. What is happening now is ridiculous. The problems just keep compounding. The stupidity and lack of concern is mind blowing!!

Linda Harris's avatar

The problem is that they have never listened to the experts about this area. Once all of our bases were bombed by Iran, the nearest base now being used is Diago Garcia which is 2200 miles away and that base is not really up to the task. So, you are talking about miles of ocean to cross to get supplies to our ships.

Carin's avatar

WTF 🤬 does anyone not believe he is a wannabe dictator at this point. A demented, narcissistic psychopath who lies like he breathes, surrounds himself with syncopates who will do his bidding, is corrupt to his core and is mean, vindictive and cruel! Wake up people if there was a time to fight for what America has stood for it’s now!

colo-ski's avatar

As tim snyder's said......, the house is not on fire Anymore, the house has burnt to the ground.

Carin's avatar

I have read a lot of what he has written but I was disappointed when he ran away from our country!

Ron's avatar

Trump is flat out selling out our country. Europe wants virtual nothing to do with us and Canada the same. Everyone else wants to keep the United States at arms length and are very leery of doing any business with us. While he makes very bad military and economic decisions, China, Russia and North Korea sit back and relish our demise.

teresafbrooks's avatar

He's Putin's puppet. And Putin is happy to pay.

Brwnigal's avatar

I would not be as informed on all of this without ALL

of you at MTN. Thanks for the Ron Filipkowski compilations!

Deli Lanoux's avatar

Amazing work indeed!!
