Deplorable but Common Republican BIGOTRY A Republican congressman from Tennessee declared on social media Monday that "Muslims don’t belong in American society." "Pluralism is a lie," Rep. Andy Ogles continued in the bigoted post on X. One prominent Republican, Richard Grenell, a special envoy for Trump, criticized Ogles' bigot post on X: "Stop attacking the First Amendment to the US Constitution!"
I can't stand republican bigots like Ogle
But under Trump the true republican party has emerged from the closet

UN panel says racist hate speechby Trumpand other US leaders has led to human rights violations!
The committee said it also was “deeply disturbed” by the use of derogatory and dehumanizing language around migrants, refugees and asylum seekers. Committee members attributed a reported rise in racial discrimination to “racist hate speech” targeting those groups.
Besides speech, there is also concern about the impact of politicians and other public figures weaponizing stereotypes to incite hate crimes and discrimination.
“Portraying them as criminals or as a burden, by politicians and influential public figures at the highest level, particularly the President,” the committee said in a news release, “may incite racial discrimination and hate crimes.”

According to New republic, Trump is the most racist president in 100 years. His racism defines nearly everything he does. And it is making US a sick, cruel and mean place. Contempt for minorities and disdain for human rights are among characteristics of fascism.

trump's DNI, Tulsi Gabbard, refuses to say if Iran was an "imminent threat"
The theory that Iran is an imminent threat is debunked by US intelligence report stating Iran nuclear program has been obliterated by military strikes. There has been no effort to rebuild because uranium remains buried under rocks. Although 60% grade uranium can potentially be enriched to 90% weapon grade, that does not prove Iran has any nuclear weapons according to International atomic energy agency.

“US intelligence says Iran’s nuclear program has been obliterated by military strikes”
There is no credible, widely reported U.S. intelligence assessment stating that Iran’s nuclear program has been destroyed by military action. Iran’s facilities have been subject to sabotage and cyberattacks in the past, but not “obliterated” in the way described.
“No effort to rebuild because uranium remains buried under rocks”
This is not supported by verified reporting. Iran’s nuclear infrastructure is distributed and partially underground by design, and there is ongoing international concern about continued nuclear activity—not abandonment.
“Iran has 60% enriched uranium but that doesn’t prove weapons” This part is partly true but incomplete:
The International Atomic Energy Agency has reported that Iran has enriched uranium up to about 60%, which is technically close to weapons-grade (90%).
However, the IAEA has not confirmed that Iran possesses a nuclear weapon.
At the same time, enrichment at that level is widely viewed as far beyond civilian energy needs and raises serious proliferation concerns.
“Theory that Iran is not an imminent threat is debunked”
This is a subjective political claim, not something definitively “debunked” by a single intelligence report. Assessments of “imminent threat” vary among governments and analysts.
Essentially:
The statement about Iran’s nuclear program being “obliterated” by U.S. strikes is false.
The uranium enrichment point is partially accurate but lacks context.
The overall conclusion is misleading and not supported by verified intelligence reporting.

It’s obvious Pam Bondi wasn't hired because of her legal acumen or dedication to justice. She's Trump's fixer and has been since the time of the Trump University lawsuit. And she's knee deep in distancing Trump from Epstein regardless what the facts are! She will or already has a pardon in hand!

@joe pockets
At this point, I would easily assign more credibility and integrity to former fixer Michael Cohen than I would to the blond traitor who is actually betraying her oath to America.

US military is supposed to be nonpartisan and professional. But anti-muslim Hegseth and others think they are leading a holy crusade against Iran. Problem is Christian nationalism is racist and intolerant toward other religions. There is no freedom of religion without a government that is free from religion.
