Gen. Mark Milley never mentioned the former president by name. But he practically shouted on two different occasions that the U.S. military swears to protect the Constitution “against ALL enemies, foreign AND domestic. We don’t take an oath to a king or a queen or to a tyrant or a dictator. And we don’t take an oath to a wannabe dictator," he said.

Those are the big things. You probably already know what they are. Dehumanizing language and slurs. Use of abusive insults. Rhetoric that purposefully devalues minority groups.
I do think there can be tension there, in some outlier cases. (Less than I think most free speech absolutists think tbh.) I evaluate those things on a case by case basis and absolutely bring my personal judgement and my personal sense of nuance to that. How could I not? I'm human.

Rand, Paul stated if we want to avoid a government shutdown we need to discontinue it to Ukraine
I’ll let John McCain handle this one
"[Rand Paul] has no justification for his objection to having a small nation be part of NATO, that is under assault from the Russians.
“So I repeat again, the senator from Kentucky is now working for Vladimir Putin."
The cruelty is the point. They have proven this time and time again and all the MAGAts LIKE CRUELTY
This government shutdown is an orchestrated attack on America whose ringleader is Donald Trump.
Its intent is simple: to cause the most pain to the most people and then—as Trump & radical-magas always do—somehow claim it’s President Biden’s fault and use the shutdown as a political chit.
It’s grotesque.
Mostly reclusive and carrying slightly damaged goods. A survivor by some accounts. Definitely in need of much therapy. ;)
Staunchly anti-fascist
Bear in mind that, while I may "like" your "toot", about a person, event or particular topic, if it links to the "bird-site" I will no longer boost and inadvertently contribute to their grift. Everyone has a choice and a part to play when crimes go unpunished.
