Google Maps renaming Lake Ontario to Lake America on it’s own incentive shows nothing, but that Google is glad to be a yapping lapdog for fascist strongmen. And the only reaction to it we should have is to laugh & pity the fool.

Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth on Trump in 2016:

“Typical Trump. All bluster, very low substance… he’s an armchair tough guy. This is a guy who said that John McCain is not a war hero yet he sought his own five military deferments.” @Acyn

Ken Paxton is trying to explain that his 15 HOUSES are because of private business, but that corrupt SOB has been working in government since January 2003, max salary $153K since 2015.

So I'm calling bullshit.
Texas: Don't elect a crook like Paxton.

Good afternoon everyone. An active-duty Air Force major went on CNN and said he’s willing to be dishonorably discharged, lose his pay, and go to prison, rather than stay silent about the war in Iran. Major Jason Watson called Trump’s war “unconstitutional,” compared it to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, and told viewers, “you do not have to be somebody special to take action and reject this government.”

Wait wait, it's gets even better. He doesn't have to register as a sex offender and his record has been wiped clean.

Ken Paxton is a disgusting criminal, and Ted Cruz is blaming Biden for ruining Texas. Not Abbott. Not Paxton and not himself. Joe Biden

RFK JR. admits to bring a rapist

RFK Jr. doesn't deny the sexual assault allegations made against him:

“I’m not a church boy. I am not running like that. I said in my… I had a very rambunctious youth. I said in my announcement speech that I have so many skeletons in my closet…” (2024)

Opinion | Hegseth chose loyalty over leadership — and has crippled the military
wapo.st/4qO2OBh

🚨 Multiple U.S. Combatant Commanders have non-concurred with Pete Hegseth’s order to continue Trump’s war against Iran into 2027.

In a rare rebuke of the Secretary of Defense, Four-Star admirals and generals, including the Commanders of EUCOM, PACOM, SOUTHCOM, and the head of the Navy, have formally disagreed with Hegseth’s order. They will still carry it out, but in protest.

It's interesting that Google's compliance with non-law government directives regarding the names of bodies of water is so blazingly fast, because, they say, it's their responsibility under the law and they're just following orders...

...and yet their compliance with laws regarding labor rights, collective bargaining, sexual harrassment, and workforce diversity was and is glacial, despite being actual laws.

Every response is a choice.

It's still Lake Ontario. And the Gulf of Mexico. You're welcome.

The awkward years are the hardest. You know, the years between birth and death.

The #FCC has limited power over issues like this, & its own website states the agency “cannot prevent the broadcast of any particular point of view,” so the notion of “punishment” for #KristenWelker, the moderator of #NBC’s “Meet the Press,” would historically [& legally] be a nonstarter.

But #BrendanCarr has been quick to respond to #Trump’s requests to go after #media organizations. And he has taken aggressive action against some #FCC licensees…

In 1996, Maria Farmer says she called the FBI and reported Epstein and Maxwell for crimes involving young girls.Her warning was dismissed.
No major investigation followed.
No one stopped Epstein.
Farmer spent decades saying she had tried to warn authorities. Government records show that her complaint DID exist.
She suing the federal government, accusing officials of failing to act when they had the chance.
This is why the Epstein Files NEED to be released in FULL.
