Dan Driscoll, former US Army Secretary: Ukraine's budget was small relative to ours, and despite that, they had better weapons of war. It was a wake-up call. In some ways, it was humiliating seeing how quickly a nation could change when it needed to — Rolling Stone. 1/

“Besides, what bad, un-conservative things could Democrats do? I mean, are they going to start another forever war in the Middle East? Start socializing industries? Raise the national debt to $40 trillion? Cause abortion rates to rise? Increase the cost of groceries and gas? Pal around with socialists (like Zohran Mamdani)? Suck up to communists (like Chinese President Xi Jinping)? Nominate a bunch of weirdos, drunks and inexperienced hacks to the Cabinet? Pursue self-enrichment? Start building monuments to themselves? Threaten to use the power of government on their opponents?”

A core tenet of fascism is to claim that all of society's problems are actually caused by a minority group, thus requiring the state to use its full power to attack that group.
Vance: “A lot of the problems that exist in American society would be solved just by deporting illegal aliens. Lower housing prices, lower rent, lower violent crime.”

They just ran that illegal, tax-payer-funded Trump commercial during the Commanders/Seahawks game. That’s a lot of our money being spent on Trump propaganda.

Fox News hosts spend their day telling their audience that Democrats are communists and communists are evil people, then in the evening they all got dressed up to attend a state dinner honoring a communist.

U.S. F35 stealth parts were accidentally shipped to China. China is refusing to return them, and copying every single part of the top secret planes.

Remember when the Republicans had a national, rolling multi week freakout over a balloon? Not a peep about sending the stealth tech directly to the Chinese in the damn mail!
🚨Breaking from @ACapaccio: The Chinese government has taken possession of potentially sensitive F-35 stealth aircraft parts that were inexplicably diverted to Hong Kong while being sent to the US from Australia by UPS, people briefed on the incident said. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
