Loomer is just mad she sucked his little mushroom and had to smell his shit filled diaper and got nothing for it.

Yeah she can go hide for a while and then come out with a redemption arc. American loves a redemption arc that is for sure.

If she can pull off enough of the crazies then more power to her. Well no power her because she is a nut. I think she wants a GA senate seat but you might be right. She might be going for the WH.

I did not see that coming

Here is what is funny for me. I worked in public education for almost 30 years. All that time the state of North Carolina did not let me join a union but I could join a professional organization like NCAE. So now I am not a professional so can teachers join a union now? And after reading the article I see that it will be shutting people out of getting these degrees because they have to take out loans for graduate school and post graduate work. So basically those who are in the middle of studies right now can expect to be left high and dry next fall.

Yeap and there go. Buy ammo ladies and gentlemen.

What the fuck???

Our country lost it fucking mind electing this fucker. I am sick to my core and I have no idea what to do anymore.

They just want to burn the world down for everybody after them.

It’s not over yet.

Expect that to spread out too. I live in a little town called Morganton and there is a huge Spanish speaking population here that works for Case Farms. NC has been pretty free from the bullshit so far but when it hits Charlotte it will echo through the rest of the state.

Yeah it will float on down the river with GOP in charge.

If they would only have that much balls. Hell here in WNC there were hunting parties trying go after FEMA last year. I don’t know if the MAGA rural meth-heads would have enough class to even thanks the people helping them.

Well what you do is take some hamburger mean and fry it up. Not as patty form but more like taco meat. There is a season pack that is pretty much taco seasoning and there is elbow mac in the box. After you put eh season in and stir it around dump the mac in and stir it around then add some water and let it simmer for a while. I was poor as a child and ate a lot of this shit. It was cheap and was designed to stretch hamburger meat out. There are different flavors but it all taste the same. When I was in the military we called it chilli-mac. Same shit. If I am hungry I will eat it if offered but I will not go looking for it.

Whatever you say chubbs. You have a nice day.

You have a hard on for this guy. He was a Marine infantryman. They are not the deepest of thinkers. If I got condemned for all the stupid shit I did when I was on active duty then I would have no friends. We all make mistakes and mature. You have a nice day.

This is not speculation. Project 2025, through its 900-page Mandate for Leadership, lays out a framework for using the U.S. military and other federal forces inside the country against its own people. It starts by calling the federal government “a behemoth, weaponized against American citizens and conservative values” (Foreword, p. xv). From that claim, it argues the next president must “re-forge” the Department of Defense and other agencies to “serve the president” directly (p. 171). That wording removes the wall that separates civilian governance from military command.

Project 2025 proposes that all senior military promotions be reviewed by the White House to ensure loyalty to presidential priorities. That recommendation appears in the section on the Department of Defense (Mandate for Leadership, cited in People’s Guide p. 46-47) where it directs the president to “review all general and flag officer promotions.” Once that happens, the military becomes an arm of political enforcement rather than national defense.

It also outlines the use of federal and possibly military resources to “arrest, detain, and remove immigration violators anywhere in the United States.” That line appears in multiple summaries of the Mandate (People’s Guide p. 3, 41-47). It does not limit that power to the border. It explicitly authorizes “arrest operations anywhere in the United States.” That is domestic deployment by definition.

The Mandate treats the Department of Defense as a political tool, demanding a purge of leadership that resists “social engineering” and replacing them with those who share the president’s “values” (People’s Guide p. 46, citing Mandate pp. 80-81, 213, 524). It also revives Executive Order 13957, also known as Schedule F, to remove non-partisan officials and replace them with “policy-advocating” loyalists (p. 43-44). That structure would put every major department, including Defense, under direct presidential command with no institutional buffer.

Once power is concentrated in this way, the same troops and officers sworn to defend the nation can be ordered to suppress dissent, occupy cities, or enforce political will under executive authority.

In short, Project 2025 is the first open plan in modern American history to outline the conditions under which the military could be used against citizens. It replaces the principle of civilian control with the principle of presidential control. Anyone who reads The People’s Guide to Project 2025, pages 3, 43-47, 80-81, 171, 213, 524, and the Foreword p. xv, will see that it does not prepare for national defense. It prepares for internal enforcement.

The outrage over Platner’s Totenkopf tattoo is the same tired playbook the DNC used against Bernie and Mamdani. When someone refuses to toe the corporate line, they reach for the smear file. This time they are pretending a centuries-old military emblem is proof of fascist sympathies. It is lazy, ahistorical, and typical of a leadership class that thrives on cultural panic instead of context.

The Totenkopf, or “death’s head,” has a long military lineage that predates the Nazis by more than a hundred years. Prussian cavalry first used it in the 18th century, and the Brunswick Hussars under Duke Ferdinand of Brunswick wore it during the Seven Years’ War as a symbol of fearlessness and a reminder of mortality. It was never political. It was about the reality that soldiers live with death close by and fight in spite of it.

By the Napoleonic era, both Prussian and Brunswick forces kept the tradition alive. The Brunswick “Black Brunswickers” who fought against Napoleon wore black uniforms with silver skulls on their shakos. For them the skull meant defiance and the willingness to die for their homeland, not devotion to ideology.

In World War I, the Totenkopf appeared again among elite German units such as the 17th and 92nd Hussars. It stood for camaraderie, courage, and readiness to face death. The Nazis later stole and corrupted it for the SS and concentration camp guards, but that does not erase its earlier meaning.

The skull also appeared in the British Army. The 17th Lancers adopted the skull-and-crossbones in 1759 after the Battle of Warburg, pairing it with the motto “Death or Glory.” It became famous during the Charge of the Light Brigade in 1854. For them, the image carried the same memento mori message that European soldiers had shared for centuries: remember death, and live with courage.

To those of us who study and reenact military history, the Totenkopf is not inherently fascist. It is part of a broader European tradition where the skull reminds soldiers that life is fragile and valor is not eternal. It is a symbol of mortality and defiance, not hate. History deserves context before condemnation.
