Tweet from Pete Hegseth: "The War Department is once again restoring freedom to our Joint Force. We are discarding the mandatory flu vaccine, effective immediately."

Pete Hegseth: "No more mandatory flu vaccines."
History: "Well Pete, In WW1, influenza killed as many American soldiers as died in combat, about 50,000".
Republicans started it.
Democrats will finish it.
Democrats did not want to do any mid-decade redistricting. It was Trump who started it in June 2025 with a phone call to Greg Abbott after more special election losses. Dems warned they’d respond. But Texas did it anyway - without the consent of the voters. Then Dems responded.
"Now is not the time for cowards. We need fascists of courage."
Will the Virginia supreme court rule that redistricting is only legal when Republicans do it without allowing voters to weigh in?
If Republicans hate the CA and VA redistricting, they can thank the person responsible - Donald J. Trump.
None of it would’ve been possible without his leadership on this issue.
It's like Putin getting Sweden to join NATO.
Congratulations, Virginia! Republicans are trying to tilt the midterm elections in their favor, but they haven’t done it yet. Thanks for showing us what it looks like to stand up for our democracy and fight back.
But Republicans didn't steal Texas – even though the citizens of Texas weren't given an opportunity to vote on it?
"Virginia Is For Lovers"...
Lovers of DEMOCRACY! 😍❤️🤍💙
Thank you Virginia voters. 👏
key thing we learned from Virginia campaign
Republicans are freaked the fuck out about accountability
Not just Trump, all of them - including their billionaires, like Thiel
They fear what's coming when Dems win - and Dems need to be ruthless about it
Look at this chart.
Tax cuts for the rich are a policy choice. Cutting the social safety net in exchange for them is a policy choice.
States like New York have an opportunity to help undo this trickle down nonsense by raising taxes on the rich (who will still be rich).
I hope Gov. Hochul does.
The DOJ is now 5 month in breach of releasing the Epstein files.
Holding these criminals accountable should be the Nuremberg of our time.
Also, the depravity of all law enforcement present at the time.
Fresh from moving to vacate the DOJ’s own criminal convictions of Proud Boys and Oath Keepers for seditious conspiracy, Todd Blanche and Kash Patel have now criminally indicted the Southern Poverty Law Center for infiltrating extremist groups with paid informants—exactly what the FBI does!

My dad sent me this pic earlier today. He proudly walked into his Fairfax precinct and cast his #VoteYESVirginiaToday ballot because he believes in democracy and he thinks Trump is the most corrupt president in American history. Thanks Pop, for using your voice!! 🗳️🗳️🗳️
So much false equivalence in media on gerrymandering in Texas vs California & Virginia. California and Virginia maps approved by the voters. That's a huge difference not enough people pointing out
If it weren't for fascist billionaires, Kash Patel would be unemployed and unemployable, not the FBI Director.
"Sir, you are no longer allowed in Ikea. Couches are not sex toys."
The theory of the case -- that the SPLC defrauded donors by promising to "dismantle" hate groups while secretly paying informants inside said hate groups, a tactic that it has carried out for nearly half a century -- is completely absurd.
The GOP is defrauding taxpayers by using federal law enforcement to abuse its power with bogus criminal charges and allow white supremacist groups to operate unfettered.
Pete Hegseth, when he was an Army National Guard major, was one of 12 Guard members removed from duty at President Joe Biden's inauguration in January 2021 following vetting by the FBI and military officials.
Those were all the credentials he needed for Trump to appoint him Defense Secretary.

Both absent from work (and on the taxpayer dime at that) and drunk.
The people who pay the least in taxes as a percentage of their income have almost exclusive voice in how our government operates.
And they use that voice such that government is used almost exclusively against those who pay far more in taxes as a percentage of their income.
If Adolf Hitler were suddenly reincarnated and installed inside the American government, one of the first things he would do is start investigating organizations like the Southern Poverty Law Center.
The SPLC is America's early warning system for fascist, white supremacist takeovers of our country.
