This article is dedicated to Ozarkmichael who had complained about the ad adminitioning the military to disobey illegal orders.  Here is a time when they should have disobeyed Hegseth,who acts like GI Joe playing a video game.

Meanwhile Trump has said he will pardon the former Honduran president who was convicted of drug smuggling.  I guess bringing drugs into the country is not that big a deal afterall for Trump.

~~ recommended by newestbeginning ~~

Not content to simply promote bigotry in the US, apparently they are promoting hatred, cruelty and racism around the world and insisting that everyone be as sociopathic as the US is, or face investigation and persecution if not cruel enough...  If it weren't so dangerous, it would be funny to listen to the Trumpian regime blaming (POC) immigrants for damaging social cohesion.  It is hard to wrap one's head around such tone deafness.
