Do we know where the polls are this morning in the TN-7th district race? Hopefully his deranged posts have pushed Aftyn Behn into the lead.❤️🤍💙 and Hegseth needs to be jailed…😡

Yeah we do. And it's not good news.

The shooter of the National Guard troops did not just 'work with the US' in Afghanistan, he was part of what the CIA calls a “Zero Unit”—paramilitary forces trained and backed by American intelligence, aka death squads that routinely killed civilians. He may have participated in extrajudicial killings when he was still a teenager.

This relevant fact is being downplayed in a lot of US reporting, with euphemistic language like 'he worked with the CIA' or 'he was a member of an elite unit'.

A childhood friend of Lakanwal’s said he “suffered from mental health issues and was disturbed by the casualties his unit had caused.” His family told investigators he has PTSD from the fighting he did on our behalf.

I reckon you can bet the farm that Trump is 'going to harm vulnerable people and our democracy as long as he has any power" Noah. There's no 'suggest' about it all!

Thank you. If something is a fact, saying "suggests" is cowardly. I get so angry at the prevalence of that word in the news media.

Kash Patel was being woke when he said “they” to refer to the suspect 😉

Every time Drumpf rants like a crazy person, I keep hoping it becomes "the last straw" for most of his sycophantic followers....

S.I.G.H. ......

Personally, I always hope his rants end in a massive stroke or heart attack.

The polls mean nothing because they won't remove him from office, and every day that asshole stays in office is terrifying.

And be sure to congratulate Tennessee for installing another MAGA scumbag in their government.

Going from an R+22 district to an R+9 in one year is very hopeful for 2026! I'll take that as a positive sign.
