Trump's answer to a reporter today. 🙄 Basically "nuh uh" and he said they needed to stay longer. I hope military Trump voters are listening to the shit he's saying.
trump believes the military are disposable people. His "class" cannot begin to fathom a career in the military or the sacrifices they make.
After watching the military, mostly, stand behind trump for over a decade, inc veterans making electric gloves, I wonder what they could be thinking? To learn to kill. Not just to defend but to kill. When they are deployed, they suffer and bring that home to their families. Why????
They're brainwashed, are made to believe their careers ARE THEMSELVES.
I feel for those on USS Abraham Lincoln and hope they're ok but am doubtful.
Meanwhile, another ship of willing victims is headed to Iran.
Thanks, Jessica for your alarm re shock gloves. My comment to Compliant Technologies: I am horrified that a business run by veterans supplies shock gloves to ICE. You are complicit in the mindless cruelty, blatant racism, & questionable legality that ICE agents already inflict on human beings, many of them innocent of any wrongdoing, some of them US citizens. Word is out on the internet about your violation of human decency & your oath to uphold the US Constitution. I demand that you stop immediately. Please note: I am a radio broadcaster.
I called the Florida senator yesterday and today, I am making that message clear to my own senators and representative here in Texas. They won't hear the end of me!
Compliant Technologies shut down their contact page form on their website. on their FB page the have a send email link. In case the take that link off their FB page.
Thank you, Jess. Thankfully there are several good organizations that send ready-to-sign petitions and/or letters via email, which save a lot of time and effort. It's clear that plenty of us are taking action and it certainly can't hurt. We have no right to complain if we don't try. I have a couple of friends who claim it won't do any good so they don't bother. Hopefully I'll be able to say "you're welcome" when things really do happen. Already I "can't keep my mouth shut" and say "don't complain to me" when a practically life-long male friend whines about something like prices.
Thanks for the link to send a message to the company that invented/made the Electric Gloves! It was easy to send a message to them and I did, politely, and suggested that they all be relegated to a "very warm place" wa-a-a-ay down below for eternity! Did you folks SEE what it did to big fellows (on the nightly news)? From standing to flat on their backs on the ground in less than a second and yelping in pain. Maybe Mitch had something to do with this? He certainly has had time to work out the kinks!
I found the information for Compliant Technologies (even the name is disgusting) the other night and only left a message as I wasn’t sure I wanted them to have all my information (I thought I posted the link in a comment). I just sent a message via the website as well.

That's a choice.
Pitiful to witness.

Can we please demand electronic monitoring rather than prison for most people accused of being illegal immigrants?
There's research that shows that it is effective.
It would greatly decrease suffering, and harm to those not guilty. It would even help businesses the accused work for.
Atd it would save lots of money. Should be a great, positive action for candidates to appeal to all kinds of voters.
And it would disrupt cash flow from tax payers to the prison owners who support Trump.
Can we get someone to move on this? I am just a tax payer in a rural village of 250 citizens.
Thanks, again, Jessica! Looks like you're back up to speed! It was fun writing to Compliant Technologies.

Thank you! From the targeted State of Minnesota who had a fabulous turnout for Primary Election. 8647

The discharge petition is actually HR 1589.

According to a Google search, household increased spending since January 2025 is about $2000 to $3900.
Trump says sailors should have longer deployments, including the Abraham Lincoln. Nothing is as important to him as denying he made a mistake.
Previous Republican presidents, including Lincoln, Reagan and both Bushes, found the White House good enough for them.

Sent $ to support Ground Truth canvassers, and filled out form to ICE glove enablers. Always appreciated your suggestions.
