Yeah, and if you remember ronald reagan. Sent an emissary to iran to ask them to hold those hostages. Until after the election, do you remember that

Dannys's avatar

Yes, I do. Reagan was the precursor to Trump. Reagan was the beginning of the end for the Republican Party.

Maura's avatar

Reagan was the beginning of the decline of democracy and the end stages of capitalism. If the republicans (oligarchs) succeed, we will be an authoritarian state.

And Drumpf is the final act.

So they snuck tRump out of Turkey. The others flew home on the targeted plane. F**k ‘em. That's great. You'd think they would have grounded that plane and put everyone on other flights out of Turkey. Instead, “F**k ‘em.” That's Trump for you.

Dannys's avatar

This whole thing stinks to high heaven. I’m not buying what we know so far. There is more to this. None of it makes sense.

Toxtli Melloh's avatar

Agree, another trump sympathy ploy, fake assassination attempt. Or an Israeli manipulation with false intelligence to continue their middle east war crimes and imperialism.

Well, it's taking a damn long time!

Dannys's avatar

I see you like Adam Mockler. So do I.

Get used to it. As long as there is an Israel the U.S. will not give in. Meanwhile Iran is willing to wait forever for their revenge.

God Bless Iran❤️🙏

There are unconfirmed reports coming out of the Gulf States that around two weeks ago an American Special Operation consisting a group of specialist soldiers were captured while trying to land on Iranian soil.

Iranians captured American soldiers dressed as local fishermen in small fishing boats while attempting to land on Iranian soil during the night.

It appears that Iran has not released any details regarding the capture of American soldiers because Trump is trying to do a deal with the Iranians to get himself out of this situation without the media finding out. Unfortunately, he is unable to satisfy Iran’s demands because if he does give them what they demand the news of the captured American’s will eventually be exposed through the terms of any agreement made.

No matter what he does he is doomed.

Jimmy Carter lives on in his head space.

The Iranian’s have said, Trump has many unsold gold watches but we have time.

Nonwo's avatar

I think Trump is not conceding to a deal has more to do with Mossad blackmail than anything else,

Trump and MAGA has ruined our country. Trump is the most corrupt piece of poop ever in the Oval Office. Freaking Iran has done more to rein in our out of control president than our useless congress /senate.

Vote MAGA OUT of office.

Toxtli Melloh's avatar

We need to get voters to turn out in massive numbers to overcome the inevitable challenges to election results. Too big to deny.

Musk will control the midterms.

And the beginning of the attack on the middle class.

Not Nixon? He was who siphoned White Supremicists (a word the spell fairy’s never heard!) off the Democrat party during the latter’s split during the Civil Rights era. You might still find videos of Nixon’s campaign manager explaining their wonderful new dogwhistles: “lower taxes” (don’t feed the disadvantaged), “war on drugs” (but not the lawyers snorting expensive ones), “tough on crime” (it’s ok to beat up blacks).

Nonwo's avatar

Absolutely with all those neocons infiltrating the defense dept.

M Emme Mayer's avatar

I also remember the gas crisis & the LONG LINES at gas stations that HAD gas. & Both parents working full time as professionals having to dumpster dive to feed the family of 4 (us 2 siblings). I remember them saying never again will they vote Republican.

Dorita Gordon's avatar

Yes, I do remember that and have mentioned that before. That was treason and Reagan got away with it too.

SUZANNE OBRIEN's avatar

He was such a POS and I did not know back then I wasn’t into politics at all. I knew he was responsible for the trickle down economics and he was an actor at one point that was about it….. What a shame.

Dorita Gordon's avatar

He was also a union buster. And he never admitted when he was wrong, he just said he never said that even when videos showed him saying what he just denied...he said he would "never have said that". He was as big a liar as Donnie.

Dannys's avatar

Nothing “trickled” down, nothing. It went the other way..

Toxtli Melloh's avatar

Funnel up economics.

Hound's avatar

Trump is far far worse than Reagan could even dream of being. Trump never met a dictator and genocidal maniac he did love. Trump was a huge Hitler fan, He’s being blackmailed by his boyfriend Vladimir Putin and his other boyfriend Benjamin Netanyahu. Secretly Trump’s likes being a bitch to stronger more intelligent man.

Skepticat's avatar

I do, and it infuriates me still.

Nonwo's avatar

I always believed Carter won the election but the hostage BS was the excuse they used for winning. When it was rigged like every other election.

I voted for him. I loved his fireside chats and support for Sandinistas. I hated the Mariel boatlift but I don’t think he was responsible for that creation.

Roberta Nan Kolar's avatar

I don’t think I knew that. Wow.

Sky Blue's avatar

What DECADES of HISTORY have shown us ALL...

trump has NO LOYALTY to ANYONE ELSE EVER!!

NEVER EVER TRUST A BULLY because they are SO insecure narcissistic and paranoid that sooner than later EVERYONE becomes one of their TARGETS!!

VOTE 'EM ALL OUT!!

THEN LOCK 'EM ALL UP!!

Tammy  Scott's avatar

TIME TO TAKE THE TRASH OUT! TIME TO VOTE AGAINST EVERY MAGA MOUTH PIECE!

EMF1970's avatar

kind of a stark comparison to Hegseth ordering Alaskan king crab & lobsters. MILLIONS OF DOLLARS spent to serve Kegsbreath and meanwhile our sailors are starving & choosing possible death instead. the Trump administration is a WAR CRIME against OUR OWN PEOPLE.

Richard Van Atta's avatar

Putrid Hogsbreath is a useless, clueless waster who is inapt and inept. That the Trumphukian CABAL installed him as Suckretory of Warcrimes evidences that they have total disregard for the security of the United States. They want the chaos.

Jim Peached's avatar

As much as I hate trump, I'd kill Hogsbreath first 😃

Robin Elizabeth Simpson Scott's avatar

Oh Adam. I'm so tired of fighting this crap but I love America. The land. The diversity. The people. The food.

The land is being decimated.

The diversity is being deported.

The people are tired but have not given up the fight. And we won’t until the food tastes good again.

Charmaine 🇦🇺's avatar

Perfectly stated. I’m on the other side of the globe so I’m doing all I can to promote Independent and Honest USA Media in the hopes that one person decides to vote this November Or one person decides to change their vote from Republicans to Democrats. Every post I share, comment and interact with helps to keep these Amazing guys in the algorithm. The more awareness the better!! Australia was built on Immigrants and we aren’t perfect but we do have Universal Healthcare, if you get sick or are diagnosed with something like Cancer you get your treatment with Zero out of pocket expenses. If we can do it so can EVERY country. 🫶🇦🇺

Thank you for helping!

KLN's avatar

Meanwhile Trump in spending MILLIONS on the golden ballroom. Vote blue.

Suede67's avatar

More like taxpayers are spending millions on the ballroom whether they want to or not. Of course, tRump won't pay a dime of his own for squat but hell, other people's money, he's happy having a heyday with that. Yep, vote blue.💙

Dorita Gordon's avatar

In spite of courts ordering him to halt development on that military bunker he is building below a ball room...the ballroom was just a cover.

Suede67's avatar

True that. Everything with tRump is a cover, from his toupee'd head to his orange skin.

Charmaine 🇦🇺's avatar

And 20 million to buy gloves for ICE that can give electric shocks. As if ICE needs more weapons. 😤🤬

DT is a despicable and disgusting POFS!!

Anne Williamson's avatar

The USS Abraham Lincoln should be sent to a safe port immediately. People who pay lip service to "We Support Our Troops" need to step up to the plate and get our sailors out of this horrific situation. This is abominable and TOTALLY unacceptable.

Mary Glasmeier's avatar

Let’s have ice agents replace them….

blip's avatar

One Quatar plane with one Catered old imbecile on it…sounds like a plan to replace the service men and women living in deplorable conditions.

Karen Evans's avatar

Our solders are being treated like garbage. They are under funded they are out of supplies.They are torturing our soldiers, what is goung on Hegseth. This horror is on you Hegseth.

Dorita Gordon's avatar

According to trump, they are suckers and losers. And this is how he treats people who he feels are inferior to him.

DJ in AR's avatar

I bet my bottom dollar it was a taco truck....

Robert Smith's avatar

Hopefully a Taco Bell truck.

Suede67's avatar

Ha ha, good one, a Taco Bell truck loaded with 'Failure Farms' lettuce.

Robert Smith's avatar

Lmao "Failure Farms"! I like that one. I'm totally borrowing that.

Suede67's avatar

Thanks. I was kind of proud of myself for coming up with that one, lol. Please borrow away!

Suanne's avatar

Thank you for the important work that you do!!! 💙

NativeThings's avatar

The DoD owes them proper support. They can't function at their best when they have no support. hegseth is so far out of his depth.

SoCalRuth's avatar

There is something called dry milk powder. You mix it with water. WTF there used to be MRE's. How about emergency food that can be gotten at Walmart?

This is insane!

EMF1970's avatar

This administration is filled to the brim with Fox Spews hosts. They are idiots and don't know what they're doing. Are we surprised that they can't get powdered milk or MREs to our Navy?

Brenda Anna's avatar

I was thinking the same thing. They're privileged rich kids whose families never had to use powdered milk to stretch the budget. Ignorance is king in this misadministration.

SoCalRuth's avatar

You are right. It's still insane.

Sharon Hufnagel's avatar

This is despicable. Where is their monkey Hegseth? The god of war!🤬🤬🤬

Linda Harris's avatar

I have one thing to say to Michelle Tafola, Go Fuck yourself. You are not hurting at all. You and your Epstein buddies are sitting fine.

Dorita Gordon's avatar

What about those of us that don't go to starbucks, or any other fancy place to eat? We drive as little as possible, but we have to hit the grocery stores, and feed stores. WE don't do any extraneous spending, and we are stretched thin.

Linda Harris's avatar

And not only are our groceries more expensive, with many items not available; but there is little we can eat b/c of recalls: lettuce, jalapeño peppers, 1.6M eggs recalled, beef, bacon, and today pastrami ... and of course every other product that contains any of the aforementioned items.

Dorita Gordon's avatar

Good grief. It almost makes you afraid to go to a grocery store. I'm lucky we raise chickens for eggs, we may have a diet of eggs before long. And we have a freezer full of deer meat, so that at least is helping us. jalapeño peppers are also from Taylor farms??? I don't go to fast foods so am hoping that the ones I buy (since something is eating the peppers of my plants) are not from any of the farms run by Taylor but under pseudonyms. Its really getting scary out there...Where is the FDA when you really really need those inspections? Oh yeah, trump fired them all

Linda Harris's avatar

You are correct the peppers are from Taylor. The problem is that Taylor sells to major stores like Target, Walmart and many others. I do not eat fast food either, I just don't really like it and the cost is too high if I did. They gutted the FDA and RFK, Jr. gutted other programs that used to oversee these problems.

Douglas Mackay's avatar

This administration or regime is cracking, melting, sinking, and self-immolating. Expected and inevitable. Unfortunately the damage has been done and the cleanup will take years.

Wayne Baker's avatar

I sure do! And the sooner the audit, the better.

Trump could care less about the sailors. Disgusting old pervert.
