    RE: https://flipboard.social/@newsguyusa/116415088384481830 “In a prayer delivered by US Defense Secretary Hegseth during a Pentagon worship service yesterday…” FULL STOP. It does not matter what follows. It does not matter what words or what book or movie or religious faction he claims to represent, the very fact that he is leading a prayer service in prayer at work is wrong.

    I was trying to have a civil discussion with someone on Nextdoor when he offhandedly made the comment, “if global warming were true…” and now I’m trying to decide if I should block him or just delete the whole damn app completely. ☹️

    I’m just happy we can pause a beat before we wage more war to reopen the Strait of Hormuz—a vital shipping route which WAS OPEN before the war to reopen the Strait even began. #NoWarWithIran #FuckTrump #fascist #fascism #kakistocracy

    The Convicted-Felon-in-Chief pledges to commit war crimes if he doesn’t get his way.

    @ThatWeltschmerz@kolektiva.social All Federal employees get training in what sex trafficking is, how to recognize it, and the laws that prohibit Federal employees from participating regardless of where you are. Good on those who remained faithful to their duty and turned him in.

    Got this political campaign postcard in the mail today. Is there anything to back up this claim of “the safest southern border in the history of our country”?
