The Trump Presidency 2.0

You know the old saying, the US never lost a war as the Department of War......So, out of curiosity, why did they change it in 1947? Sounded too mean?

Congress amended the 1947 National Security Act to make the change because they were streamlining a lot of military responsibilities and thought that the new name reflected new mission sets and the new "joint warfare" concept.

I like the Department of War, but whatever.

I will say that non-traditional media and a LOT of people in the Char-Meck area (Charlotte/Mecklenburg County) are really pissed about this, so the Charlotte incident seems to be an ignored-by-the-media thing and the people are sending a lot of hate to the Charlotte mayor and city council.

As they should. The Charlotte mayor is despicable.
 
Only took 2-3 Days to make it to CNN.

So, what's wild is the 90s. One of the things that made Democrats popular was their war on crime. Republicans might have tried to fight crime, but obviously they were called racists. But a White Democrat fights crime? SAVIOR. I remember when California overwhelmingly passed the 3 strikes proposition in an election. I remember Broken Windows policing.

for a 45 second clip. No mention of how many times he was arrested and let go in just the past few years. And a dismissive passing comment on Elon tweeting it. None of us would have even known about this if it wasn't for his platform. You think there was any coverage on Bluesky, Threads, Mastadon, etc...

The Flag in Bio crowd is awfully quiet on this one. Wonder why.
 
We are close to a tipping point, Trump deploying the Guard isn't turning out the way Democrats want it too.
There was another murder in Auburn Alabama that the media wants to ignore.
Problem is we tend to over react, so draconian laws come out, along with unintended consequences ( similar to our current situation created by lax laws ).

Oh. My. God.

I won't link to the videos, but breaking everywhere- Charlie Kirk shot at rally. Charlie Kirk (my opinion) is dead.

I just posted this in mass shootings as well. Didn't know where else to put it.

Concur. If the video I saw was legit (and I think it is), it was not survivable.

That's pretty funny but based on the last few years worth of reporting - Canada cracking down on journalists isn't really all that news worthy anymore. It's seems as common as maple syrup.

Canada of late has surprised me, I used to think that it was a very friendly nation. Nope, social media has shown this to be a great big lie and that they're just as craptastic as the USA.
