I worked out in Iraq for two and a half years (development work) - my now husband (ex-military) was a contractor for seven. We, along with everyone else out there who was not enlisted, were always of the understanding that help from the military was never ever guaranteed if we got into trouble. They might come, if…

Oh, this is terribly sad. I am so sorry for your losses.

The VA actually killed my grandpa. :(

Does anyone remember this gem from those heady days of the Great Post-9/11 Flag-Humping Era? With those goddamn Yellow Ribbon car magnets, for those who couldn’t even be assed to commit to a decal?

Thank you for this. After hearing BENGHAZI!11!!1 for years, where are those loudmouths for this? Details are scarce, information is barely trickling in, and this asshole is shooting his mouth off about the NFL. “They don’t respect the flag, the troops”, so what is this?? Not even a “so brave, so sad, so long” tweet…

She’s still younger than he is. He’s the oldest president-elect. Remember the LIBRUL RAGS harping on the dangers of electing someone so old and in such poor health? Yeah, neither do I...

During the Dubya administration the wingnuts said it was treason to criticize the president. These same people spent eight years talking about Obama in the most disgusting (and factually incorrect) manner imaginable. Now they’re back to blind loyalty to the president. How is it that this is the party that considers…

He sent his bagman to Indy to protest protestors who were disrespecting the troops, but he refused to honor the deaths of four actual servicemen who were killed, fighting terrorists, no less. He threatened North Korea with fury and fire while western states are being devastated by actual fire. And as Jon Stewart…

I don’t know why there hasn’t been a single Congressional hearing about this. /s

He probably said when he saw the bullet point, “I thought we weren’t supposed to use the N-word. We better not say anything about it. See, I’m not racist.”

Someone on Twitter said the soldiers might be there because of the uranium. Wouldn’t be surprised if that’s why WH is not calling attention to it. You don’t want to be accused of plundering the resources of other countries.

And while we’re talking about things Trump has refused to do, the sanctions against Russia that were unanimously decided upon by congress were supposed to have gone in to effect 11 days ago. Surprise! no one is acting to put them in place.

Oh, do not get me started! Do you remember when our soldiers were being blown to smithereens by IEDs, and they couldn’t get their hands on armored Humvees for love or money? Do you remember them scrabbling through dumps and scrap-metal places for plating for the undersides of their vehicles? They installed it in…

And don’t forget, healthcare that they have a snowball’s chance in hell of accessing when they get back. I live near a VA, and I’m an RN, and I won’t work there. I’m told by vets they get fantastic care there, ONCE THEY CAN FUCKING GET SEEN. I’ve heard from nurses who used to manage nursing homes with tales of trying…

Imagine what Fox et al would be doing with this had Hillary been elected.

I get the feeling this one is going unreported to Trump out of fear he’ll stay on prompter.

Especially, y’know, a post-menopausal woman for whom that asinine “excuse” doesn’t even apply.

Um - Hilary is about 70, so not a real worry there...

Noooo no no no no. Do not wish for Rumpy Dump to be assassinated. He’ll be a martyr to the psycho rightists out there, plus we’ll be subjected to having to hear about him fucking constantly in the form of fawning documentaries about the “tragedy” of his assassination.

He’s raging. He’s fuming, seething, yelling at televisions and staff. He’s spiteful and vindictive. He calls people names and is thinking about starting a nuclear war because he wasn’t able to take health care away from 23 million Americans, and needs to keep frightening people and keep the attention on him.  Puerto…
