I am absolutely appalled by the recent actions of Mar-a-Lago judge Aileen Cannon in scolding Jack Smith and promptly shutting down Trump’s gag demand, while threatening sanctions. It is alarming to witness a judge who appears to prioritize protecting Trump over upholding the law. The level of bias and favoritism demonstrated is truly disgraceful.
Cannon’s swift response to the situation reeks of corruption and manipulation. It is deeply troubling to see a judge who should be impartial and fair showing such blatant disregard for justice. The way she dismisses federal prosecutors and sides with Trump without hesitation raises serious concerns about her integrity and professionalism.… Continue reading
It’s the Democrats’ job? Really? Not the job of the free press as the 4th Estate? The ones directly charged with safeguarding democracy and a free society? No? Okay. Well, they certainly have their work cut out for them with the task of making America care. The idea of continually saying “convicted felon Donald Trump” may seem repetitive, but maybe that’s what it takes to drive home the severity of the situation.
Who cared when he became rapist Donald Trump? Who cared when he became insurrectionist Trump? Who cared when he got caught defrauding banks and the IRS? Who cared when he called vets suckers and losers?… Continue reading
The news that a high number of US weapons components have landed in Russian hands is not only concerning but also alarming. As a citizen, it raises questions about the integrity of US companies and their commitment to upholding sanctions against Russia. These components, such as microchips, should not be ending up in the hands of a country that is under sanctions, yet here we are facing the reality that they are.
The misleading title of the article may have caused some confusion, but the fact remains that US-made components are finding their way into Russian weapons. This highlights a clear failure on the part of these companies to prevent such occurrences and raises red flags about the effectiveness of current export controls and monitoring mechanisms in place.… Continue reading
I can’t help but shake my head and chuckle at the sheer absurdity of Trump’s meltdown as the hush-money jury convenes. The man who holds the highest office in the land, throwing tantrums and pointing fingers at everyone but himself, is a spectacle that is both entertaining and alarming. His claims of a “KANGAROO COURT” and a “CORRUPT AND CONFLICTED JUDGE” showcase a desperate attempt to deflect blame and paint himself as the victim.
What strikes me the most is Trump’s reliance on counsel defense, which he believes is the greatest case he’s ever seen. It speaks volumes about his privilege and entitlement, showing that he believes he is above the law and can manipulate it to his advantage.… Continue reading
Putin’s recent warning to the West not to allow Ukraine to use its missiles against Russia is not only hypocritical but also demonstrates his inherent fear of facing the consequences of his own actions. As the aggressor in the situation, Russia has no qualms about using external weapons to fire into Ukraine, yet Putin has the audacity to claim that Ukraine should not have the same right to defend itself in kind. This double standard is not only unjust but also highlights Putin’s authoritarian tendencies and his desperation to maintain control over a situation that he himself instigated.
It is ironic that Putin considers the occupied areas of Ukraine, such as Crimea, to be “part of Russia” when it suits his agenda, but suddenly becomes concerned when Western munitions are used against Russian forces in these regions.… Continue reading
I have always found the concept of signing a bomb to be unsettling and tactless. While some may argue that this is a tradition that dates back centuries, for me, it represents a loss of humanity and a lack of empathy. The recent headline of Nikki Haley signing an Israeli missile with a message from a video game just adds to my discomfort with the practice.
As a former soldier, I have seen firsthand the stress and tension that come with being in a combat zone. While some may argue that writing on artillery can be a way to relieve that stress, the idea of glorifying violence in such a manner doesn’t sit right with me.… Continue reading
Today, I woke up to a barrage of news that made me stop and reflect deeply on the current state of affairs in the world. The headline that caught my attention was “Biden gives Ukraine permission to carry out limited strikes within Russia using US weapons | CNN Politics”. It’s like a scene out of a movie, but unfortunately, this is our reality. The implications of such a decision are profound and cannot be ignored.
The idea of Ukraine being allowed to use US weapons to strike within Russian territory is indeed a bold move. It’s a signal that the US, along with other major allies, is standing firm against Russian aggression.… Continue reading
De Niro’s recent outspoken comments against Donald Trump have stirred up quite a bit of controversy and debate. Some say that his star power shouldn’t be utilized in such a manner, while others argue that it’s about time someone with influence takes the fight directly to Trump. Personally, I believe that De Niro’s boldness in calling out Trump as a bully and a fake tough guy is absolutely necessary in the current political climate. We can’t afford to sit back and hope that the truth will prevail on its own. We need prominent figures like De Niro to use their platform to make a stand against the dangerous rhetoric and actions of the former president.… Continue reading
As a pilot for Spirit Airlines, I have witnessed my fair share of interesting moments while flying. The recent incident where the pilot instructed passengers to prepare for a possible water landing on a flight to Fort Lauderdale certainly caught my attention. While water landings are extremely rare, the thought of having to make such a maneuver can be unsettling for both passengers and crew alike.
It is essential for pilots to prioritize the safety and well-being of those on board, which may sometimes require preparing for emergency procedures such as a water landing. The pilot’s decision to brief passengers on life jacket use, although done with good intentions, seemed to have caused some confusion and chaos among those on the flight.… Continue reading
The news that the US will boycott a UN tribute to the leader of Iran who was killed in a helicopter crash has stirred up a flurry of emotions and opinions. And I have to say, I wholeheartedly agree with this decision. The idea of paying tribute to a man who was known as “The Butcher of Tehran” is abhorrent and downright shameful. This man led a regime that brutally oppressed its people, routinely executed individuals for basic human rights, and was responsible for the deaths of thousands of Iranians. How can the UN even consider honoring such a tyrant?
It’s baffling to me that an organization like the UN, which claims to be neutral and unbiased, would even think to pay tribute to someone with such a horrific track record.… Continue reading
