@cdarwin@c.imTrump has ordered more troops to Los Angeles and Washington than he currently has stationed in Syria and Iraq combined.
He seems more willing to use the military against Americans than against Iranians.
He celebrates a show of force on U.S. soil even as he denounces “endless wars” outside its borders.

These dogs have been linked to civilian injuries and deaths, including children and people with disabilities. Doors forced open in the middle of the night, piercing cries for help, fangs sunk mercilessly into the flesh of victims. Children are torn from their mothers' arms, women scream for help, men collapse in agony, while apathetic soldiers just laugh as dogs tear bodies apart indiscriminately.
