When they claim to be pro-military, Trump, Carlson, Fox News, and the rest don’t mean the actual military. They certainly don’t mean the thousands of officers and enlisted who have served with Milley around the world.

New book catalogs how Trump worked to weaken American democracy, and to deliberately spread COVID-19

Republicans are trying to break Dr. Anthony Fauci, because they can’t get him to join them in lies
