As long as the US military remains capable of projecting force abroad in defense of America’s traditional allies, the US military will be the enemy of the Trump administration.

Hurting LGBT people is fun for the Trumpies, but their overall goal is to wind down America as a world power; and specifically to hand the children of Europe over to Putin’s rape gangs.

To be clear, Putin won’t get far unless France falls to fascism first, because France has nukes and will remember how to use them for things other than offending Kiwis.

What do they have to worry about? Their guy won!

Sure, if “to brief” is analogous with “to pants”.

What’s Greek for “persona non grata”?

Doctors can tell you how to save children’s lives. But they can’t make you want to.

“Government shutdowns” are, among other things, wage theft from government employees.

In the Gingrich shutdowns of the 1990s, even active-duty military members’ pay was delayed without compensation for up to three weeks. Yes, that’s right: the Republicans literally stole paychecks from our soldiers and sailors just to stick it to Bill Clinton. (And maybe to give a little handout to their buddies in the payday loan business.)

More recent shutdowns have spared active-duty DoD, but still perpetrated wage theft against members of the Coast Guard and other defense-critical services. That was the case in the 2018-2019 shutdown, for example.

You can’t convince me you care about border security if you don’t fucking pay the Coast Guard.
