Racketeering out of control.
Where does anyone start with this stuff?
I did not watch the speech. This is not in response to that.
Just a note. Taylor and Travis had some kind of wedding, huh? Madison Square Garden. Wow.
Congratulations to Spain for a magnificent victory in the World Cup. It was such a treat to have all the greats in the USA for an exciting event.
The cyclospora outbreak has been covered up since the beginning. I mean it was obvious. Very obvious. No one wants to cover up the source of any sort of medical problems spreading like communicable diseases normally prevented by vaccines. But, the entire bizarre chaos had only one purpose and was to sow doubt about the source. Nothing of what occurred was normal progression of an investigation to the source of an adverse food source. Nothing occurred as it normally rolls out. THAT WAS A HUGE CLUE as to the corruption involved.
The FDA's only positive test in America's worst parasite outbreak in years survived exactly one day — and what happened at the White House 72 hours earlier is why nobody's buying the walk-back....
Two of our finest are dead. And.
Why?

...Feehan, (click here) of Ewa Beach, Hawaii, was assigned to 2nd Battalion, 55th Air Defense Artillery Regiment, 32nd Army Air Missile Defense Command at Fort Bragg, N.C. Gonzales, of Carrollton, Texas, was assigned to 1st Battalion, 57th Air Defense Artillery Regiment, 52nd Air Defense Artillery Brigade, 10th Army Air Missile Defense Command in Ansbach, Germany. The attack marks the first U.S. hostile deaths since March and brings the total number of troops killed in the war with Iran to at least 17....
Jordan has been one of our most steadfast allies. Never in a million years would I think two American soldiers on duty in Jordan would end up dead. Not even in any imagineering of Trump's idiocy would I expect this. But, then I never imagined a Secretary of Defense wanting to be called the Secretary of War and losing out jets to friendly fire and complete fatigue by chronically reacting to an emergency. Military emergencies only happen when there is a real emergency. Not as a matter of everyday practice.
So, for Trump, it is okay for the soldier to die, but, if they become handicapped because of their service to this country, then they are a bother.
The Army is pulling back the legal resources (click here) offered to soldiers going through the disability evaluation process, limiting the support they’ll receive as review boards determine whether they are fit to serve or should receive medical retirement benefits. The Office of Soldiers’ Counsel, which provided the services, “has experienced dramatic cuts to authorized positions over the past 12 months,” according to a memo released May 27 announcing the cuts. The office’s lawyers, mostly civilians, previously provided support at three different stages of the process to soldiers in the active Army, National Guard and Reserve. Now they will only offer services one time for one stage of evaluations — the physical evaluation board — and only to active-duty soldiers and part-time soldiers with orders greater than 30 days. The Air Force and Navy confirmed that neither service is making any changes to their programs for service members....
Donald Trump has been mocking the disabled for as long as I can remember. Perhaps the Book of Acts is left out of the Trump Bible.
Acts 20:35 English Standard Version
35 In all things I have shown you that by working hard in this way we must help the weak and remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he himself said, ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’”
Moving American assets out of the war zone is one way of bringing the death toll down. These Coast Guard are far better outfitted to take out speeding drug boats anyway,

Six U.S. Coast Guard cutters (click here) formerly homeported in Bahrain will now patrol Western Pacific waters as an expeditionary squadron, extending the service’s military operations in the region. The move recasts Patrol Forces Southwest Asia — a force that spent more than two decades supporting U.S. Central Command from Bahrain — into the Expeditionary Cutter Squadron, the service said Wednesday in a news release. The squadron is currently operating in the U.S. Pacific Command area of operations, according to the release. “Coast Guard forces have always adapted to meet urgent national needs,” Coast Guard Commandant Adm. Kevin Lunday said in the release. “The Expeditionary Cutter Squadron enhances the Coast Guard’s ability to deploy our forces in support of Combatant Commanders and national security objectives.”...

Look, Trump and his ideology is dangerous. We do not have to wait and see how things turn out. We already know this administration causes harm. They cause harm to the USA both domestically and abroad.
The administration moves outside the law to protect cronies and allow for illicit profiteering. Sorry, but, a company that has cyclosporins floating around the USA food supply must expect to receive fines and the onslaught of lawsuits from the private sector. This is not a truthful administration, it lies, and it lies about everything.
