Actually, that’s not true. Dawn/twilight on Mars is bluish. This is in contrast to the rest of the daylight hours when it is reddish.; 3/25/25, 10:44 AM

@aishahhasnie

This blows an enormous hole in Dems' narrative - after it was revealed the BIDEN WH authorized Signal to be used for comms.

So let's break this down:
- NO classified info
- EXISTING approved mode of contact

That's two of the main cruxes of this outrage story defeated.”

Transparency is better than the Presidential norms during Trump 45. Those norms got him impeached not once but twice. Nobody has noticed because, everything Trump does is supposed to be appallingly shocking, including being more transparent than any president in memory.; 3/25/25, 1:08 PM
DINKY DAU 45 said...: Get Goldberg before Intelligence 3rd degree and let him tell the rest and get info he still has. If its not classified so be it. They still are incompetent fools. Not one of those fools knew a reporter was in on the chat. What the hell is security about if you don't even know who your talking to. Time of strike, names of people to kill, weapons to use NOT CLASSIFIED, ,that's even more scary These nitwits are gonna get people killed, the other guys golfing.. President Shultz "i know nothing" Where did they find these people FOX ENTERTAINMENT CENTER ? They have a good role
in the master of mishandling classified material president Shulz!; 3/25/25, 1:09 PM

FullMoon said...: In spite of leftist hysteria and pants peeing, Trump has acknowledged the error and will treat it as a learning experience and continue to support Waltz, rather than cave to the communist,racist, fascist,cowardly Democrats, MSM, and social media crybabies.; 3/25/25, 1:31 PM
FullMoon said...: Rumor has it that Musk and Trump are behind leftist Tesla hate in order to drive stock price down so ignorant lefties will sell, and right wingers can scoop it up at bargain prices; 3/25/25, 1:33 PM

Yeah. I rather talk about a phony baloney "war leak" against the rag tag Houthis.

Wikipedia calls them a "group": "The group has been a central player in Yemen's civil war, drawing widespread international condemnation for its human rights abuses, including targeting civilians and using child soldiers."

I'm literally shaking. 🙄; 3/25/25, 1:44 PM

Iman said...: “ Goldberg has a history of publishing bogus hit pieces against Donald Trump.

In 2020, The Atlantic published a report claiming that Trump didn’t want to visit the Aisne-Marne American Cemetery near Paris in 2018 because the troops there who died in battle were “losers” and “suckers.” The article was quickly debunked after it was first published, and Goldberg even admitted that the story may have been wrong. Weather reports confirmed that Trump’s visit to the cemetery was canceled due to weather conditions.

During the 2024 election, Goldberg was responsible for another bogus hit piece against Trump that claimed Trump got angry at the bill for a deceased soldier’s funeral that he offered to pay for back in 2020, which reportedly cost $60,000. The story was clearly bogus, and other journalists had been pitched the same story but could tell it wasn’t legit and didn’t run it.

Goldberg has repeatedly sacrificed his credibility and the credibility of The Atlantic to push false narratives to undermine Trump. His track record of dishonest reporting speaks for itself, making skepticism not just reasonable but necessary. Given how eagerly the mainstream media rushed to declare the Steele dossier legitimate — only for it to be exposed as a sham — there’s every reason to doubt Goldberg’s framing of this story.”

planetgeo said...: Pretty hilarious watching all the Democrat hysteria and demands for accountability and OMG FIRINGS! They snoozed the entire 4 years that they had a totally comatose Commander-in-Chief and completely disastrous Afghan withdrawal with 13 of our soldiers killed. Who do they think they are impressing with this fake sudden burst of demands for "accountability"? When exactly did they exercise any?; 3/25/25, 4:01 PM
