Skeets Of The Day

 

"Agent Krasnov?!" --

 

“A former senior Soviet KGB spy chief has claimed that Donald Trump was recruited as a spy by Russian intelligence as early as 38 years ago by his department, and given the codename ‘Krasnov’.”

Call me old fashioned, but being Russia’s KGB agent “Krasnov” since 1987 should disqualify Trump from being President of the United States. Retroactively, immediately, and forever.

Trump purges the military leadership in latest power grab --

 

Be clear about what you are seeing. The firing of these senior officers has nothing to do with competence. This is creating an oath of loyal by the Armed Forces to the Leader. We face an uncertain future.

A full-on purge of the military leadership, targeting women and people of color. This perfectly captures where we are: An escalating authoritarian takeover of the state, combined with an aggressive program to re-segregate the spheres of influence and power and restore complete white male dominance.

As the Atlantic's @radiofreetom.bsky.social explains, Trump is capturing all the key ministries one needs to hold power in a dictatorship www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

What's that Musk-y smell?  Extorting Ukraine for its mineral wealth, cont.  --


Musk took over the US government with graft and is using it—in combination with his space launch firm—to exploit an allied country that’s suffering under Russian invasion for its mineral rights. The scheme is so imperiously evil I feel like audiences wouldn’t find it believable in a Bond villain.

"The crowd again started shouting 'tax Elon,' 'tax the wealthy,” “tax the rich' and 'tax the billionaires.'" The county went 68% for Trump www.lagrandeobserver.com/news/local/r...

Where things stand now. Trump's approval numbers are underwater because his policies are unpopular (and Musk in particularly is wildly unpopular). But because Dem leaders are do-nothing, their popularity is sinking even faster. www.thenation.com/article/poli...

See also, "He who saves his Country does not violate any Law" --

 

Alina Habba, who is ostensibly a lawyer, claims on Fox & Friends that Trump "made the law" with his executive orders (executive orders are not laws -- only Congress can make laws)

DEI for me, not for thee --

 

DEI policies include accommodations for those with disabilities. With Republicans it’s DEI for me and NOT FOR THEE…
