I now routinely block -ots (zealots, idiots, bigots & bots) of all hues. Who are they? My call. Are you one? Bye-bye & get well soon. Ocelots still welcome.

There are no words adequate to describe just how odious Pete Hegseth is.
Just rejoice in the knowledge that one day soon he’ll be gone. An ignominious footnote in the Annals of Infamy.
Hegseth on Afghanistan:
I was a captain in Afghanistan, and we would go to the headquarters in Kabul, and there would be 50 flags at the headquarters.
It was a beautiful thing to see 50 different countries contributing to the NATO alliance and the ISAF mission there.
Except there were like maybe five that contributed. It was actually closer to one or two that, by the end, were actually involved in kinetic operations.
In fact, the ISAF patch, we would joke that it meant "I Saw Americans Fighting."
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Over 1100 non-American soldiers from 31 US-allied countries were killed fighting in Afghanistan, approximately 1/3 of the total combat deaths.

Either provide concrete evidence it’s an ‘Islamist’ uprising or STFU about things of which you know nothing. You couldn’t even find Limoges on a map!

Much punchier accusations from Sir Malcolm Rifkind - a former defence and foreign secretary:
"I choose my words very carefully. I think this week Donald Trump has shown himself as a person to be repulsive; as a President of the United States to be a disgrace to his own people as well as to his international responsibilities.
"We all know his actual reasons for this are a grubby attempt to win a few more votes in the midterms by trying to get oil prices down.
"In order to achieve that, he has not only betrayed Ukraine in the middle of a war, fighting for its very existence, but he is also directly - not indirectly - directly responsible for the deaths of many Ukrainians who will not now be protected by the attempts that have been successfully made using intelligence provided indirectly by the United States."

I’ll say it again, since you struggle with basic comprehension, whatever ancestral ties people may or may not have, nothing justifies taking other people’s homes and lands and driving them out.

In 1994, Ukraine gave up the world’s third-largest nuclear arsenal on America’s word.
This month, the president traded that word for a diesel deal with Putin.
Watch what he does for Putin. It shows what he wants to do with his power over you. 👇🏼

This post is ignominious.
This guy, Trump, is not only mentally disturbed, but also a real louse.
The darkest hours in U.S. history.

Mr. President, Putin killed and maimed these Ukrainians, not Zelenskyy.
No one blamed Roosevelt for defending our sovereignty when we were attacked in 1941, even though many Americans died fight our enemies
Only the worst apologists for terrorists blamed Bush for fighting back after 9/11.
But somehow it’s ok to blame Zelenskyy for defending his country after Putin invaded? This makes no sense.

1. Trump's brain is paranoid mush
2. Trump's paranoid mush-brain is looking for scapegoats to blame when it comes to the impending collapse of his position in US politics after the mid-terms
3. Trump's desperate search for scapegoats will focus on Ukraine, Canada and Europe

Trump’s damage control: “My PAC will pay for it.”
Raskin: “Thanks for clarifying who’s behind it.” 🤨

After sending the National Guard and Marines to occupy California, Donald Trump is now saying our foreign enemies should “take out” Los Angeles and San Diego.
He is deranged and dangerous.
