Are you claiming that when the democrat hivemind had a majority in congress their votes were split and not just the typical hivemind behavior of voting the way they were told by Nancy, Chuck and the parry elite?

Im saying exactly what I wrote. Work on your comprehension skills. Both GOP and Dems created goals for this agency and voted on the budgets each renewal of funding session so your attempt to blame Dems for all the ills in this program is beyond stupid. Now you want to gas light the topic and throw out a different issue. You claim the dems only vote as a collective mind , what the hell do you think the GOP has been doing?   

With many people, once they got attached to a theory, it was hard to get them detached. They’d screen out unhelpful facts, invent favorable ones, and ignore contradictions in their own claims. Look at those Sandy Hook, multiple fraud convictions, and Jan. 6th truthers, babbling about false flags and crisis actors and all the rest. When people were motivated enough to believe something, they were going to believe it no matter what. There was no such thing as a bridge too far.

 

I've certainly heard of the concept of a sore loser in the past, but I've never really seen a great example of a sore winner. I'm seeing an awful lot of gloating and it's of a rather nasty variety. It just seems to be the continuation of the kind of division and hatred that the fake master has forged, and established, and his devotees seem to be continuing to run with the torch, and doing a great job of continue the animosity.

 

It's precisely the opposite of what he promised which was to unify the country, however many of us knew this was exactly what was going to happen. Anytime Trump says something you can more or less predict the exact opposite is going to happen. 

 

Any sort of individuality and any of your own opinions are not welcome within the maga movement. You have to subscribe to the policies of the master and if you disobey, if you disagree you are thrown under the train, or you are considered to be disloyal.

HE closed the border,

deported millions of illegals,

finished 8 wars,

started 1 war-agaisnt Iran and desroyed ayatollahs and their nuke program!

I am sure he would be quite proud of your devotion, to the rest of us it just sounds like babble.

For the brain addled and simple minded, Trump gives them everything they need to live vicariously and finally feel they have a voice in this world. Besides his continual statements railing against "deranged" people, which is to say rational people who do not worship him, Trump even regularly posts silly AI-generated images of himself as everything from a deity to a mythical hero. It's pablum cereal for babies.

Two cases in point:

Is that the best you got? It is quite astonishing to me how MAGA has descended to a level where some of the less intelligent supporters are simply reduced to slogans, name calling as a juvenile tribute to their thuggish political master, and memes rather than intelligent discussions.

 

All Democrats are communist

All Democrats are baby killers

All Democrats support trans rights. 

All democrats are woke

 

Do you know where we get our power from? We drink the blood of infants in basements of pizza parlors. 

We are all highly ignorant, we all hate America, and we are the cause of all the problems that America have. All 200 million Americans who don't support the circus clown huckster.

Two cases in point:

Saint Donald. Total revisionist history, a complete reformation of his entire career, and a total erasure of his past crimes, moral terpitude, and a total and complete willingness to overlook a lifetime of moral bankruptcy.

I do have some friends that will come right out and say the man is a butthead, he's an idiot, and he's an absolute clown, but I like his policies. Those are the Republicans I admire.

As the weeks and months go by it is increasingly more obvious that American influence has diminished to the point where the nation is becoming irrelevant to so many former allies who would rather coddle up to China.

When a president pushes former allies towards China you know he's failing miserably in his job.

If Trump destroyed their nuke program, tell us why he is still focusing on their uranium stockpile in his negotiations?

Is Trump diminishing American influence with his policies?

no. we rule and we are your boss

He's already blocked for me, as his one liners are a waste of space on the screen. And his tone was not matching my taste either.

Meanwhile the legality of Hegseth's blocking and removal of high ranking military personnel is questioned.

Fresh questions are swirling around Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth after a legal expert claimed his decision to block senior military promotions may be driven by political loyalty rather than merit, raising concerns about the future independence of the US armed forces.

The allegations, made by veteran federal trial attorney Sabrina Haake, argue the move goes beyond accusations of discrimination and instead reflects an effort to reshape the military's leadership around ideological allegiance.

Promotion Freeze Sparks Legal Firestorm

Writing in her Substack newsletter, Haake claimed Hegseth blocked the promotions of officers selected to become one-star generals and admirals despite exemplary service records.

She argues federal law largely places responsibility for senior military promotions with military promotion boards and service secretaries, not the Secretary of Defense. Pentagon regulations, she added, only permit officers to be removed from promotion lists under limited circumstances, such as professional or disciplinary failings.

Claims Of Ideological Screening

Haake believes the real issue is not simply that women and minority officers have reportedly been disproportionately affected. Instead, she argues the promotion freeze is intended to remove officers viewed as politically incompatible with President Donald Trump's defence agenda.

She points to Hegseth's repeated public comments stressing that military leaders ultimately serve at the pleasure of the president, arguing this reflects an effort to build a command structure based on loyalty rather than professional judgement.

Rebuilding the US into a banana republic / autocracy is not just a possibility anymore.

It's happening since 20th January 2025.

As the (old) establishment of the democrat party doesen't seem to want a real change, the progressives are gaining rapidly more support.

The normal people of the US deserves better than what's happening right now. The question is - do they understand the importance to make a change at the coming elections.
