The Trump Crime Family is now in the cell phone business. I'm old enough to remember when Republicans lost their peanuts over brother Billie's Beer. And made President Jimmy sell his farm.

Just for grins, Gary Cohen and Ron Darling... How do you think Benetti and Dirks would handle this https://awfulannouncing.com/food/gary-cohen-ron-darling-citi-field-pastrami.html?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=bluesky

If you actually look at the numbers both Obama and Biden deported a larger number of people than the current administration and Trump 1.0. They also went thru proper channels. The perception with Trump and the current ICE raids are they seem to be picking people up randomly and even with planned raids are shipping people out without such hearings. The administration isn't even attempting to argue that claim. Nobody is objecting to convicted criminals being deported, but arresting dissident foreign students and the perception of kidnapping suspected "criminals" without proper paperwork and trials seems to be the issue here. As usual every Trump does is half assed.

Birthday boy is not very happy. Pete needs to revise his resume

When you turn over your reporting of news to AI Also why I stopped subscribing to the Washington Post

If it's supposed to be a military parade honoring the Army, why the pre-recorded rock music. Come on guys any parade planner with his/her salt should at least give us marches. Can the CCR and give us Sousa, Karl King (circus marches better fit this farce), Edwin Bagley, at the very least John Williams.

I've seen better small town parades on Halloween...

Local Social Media pictures showing an impressive turnout in JCC/Williamsburg. I'm guessing close to a thousand folks.

They had him on the broadcast at the Memorial. Yes, he seems in good shape

Billsburg gathering is later today, just in time for the weather to roll in. We were out running errands today, I wore my Madison Federalist 51 quote shirt...my own version of protest.

I keep asking this, yet MAGA seem too chicken to come to the forum with an answer

BTW a reminder that Sleepy Don is now older than Biden when he was sworn into office

June 14 https://www.history.com/this-day-in-history/june-14 June 14, 1777: During the American Revolution, the Continental Congress adopts a resolutionstating that “the flag of the United States be thirteen alternate stripes red and white” and that “the Union be thirteen stars, white in a blue field, representing a new Constellation.” The national flag, which became known as the “Stars and Stripes,” was based on the “Grand Union” flag, a banner carried by the Continental Army in 1776 that also consisted of 13 red and white stripes. Henry Ossian Flipper, born into slavery in Thomasville, Georgia, in 1856, becomes the first African American cadet to graduate from the United States Military Academy at West Point, New York on June 14, 1877. On June 14, 1917, as the soldiers of the American Expeditionary Force (AEF) travel to join the Allies on the battlefields of World War I in France, United States President Woodrow Wilsonaddresses the nation’s public on the annual celebration of Flag Day. On June 14, 1775, the Continental Congressauthorizes the enlistment of expert riflemen to serve the United Colonies for one year. This launches the U.S. Army as America's first national institution, more than a year before the Declaration of Independence is published on July 4, 1776.

If we were to wander out today I would need to wear my Madison T-Shirt “ ”If men were angels…” It really needs to add the second part of the quote… ”If angels were men….”

From the Bullwerk The final risk to the military is that it won’t be taken seriously because service members are not viewed as public servants. At the lowest levels, this can look like the experience of Vietnam veterans, who weren’t given the support they needed to reintegrate back into civilian life. All of society benefits when veterans bring their strengths back home with them—and all of society sufferswhen they’re left to deal with their problems on their own. At the highest levels, senior military leaders have to be confident that their civilian bosses will consider their best professional advice. If those civilian bosses have reason to believe that advice has a partisan bias, the result could be bloody disaster. If Trump really supported the troops, he’d help them do their jobs and reintegrate back into civilian life when their service is over. But as his parade so obviously demonstrates, he’s really only interested in the troops supporting him. https://www.thebulwark.com/p/the-real-costs-of-trump-parade?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email
