ICEstapo goons trashed a restaurant and started a kitchen fire, because they could.
They are all bastards. And it's no surprise that around the globe, only the US is losing tourists.

Old Soviet Joke
A guy keeps going to the newsagent: he scans the headlines and then leaves.
The newsagent sees him do this a few days in a row and finds it to be strange behavior, so one day he asks him:
“Comrade, what are you doing? Can I help you?”
“Thank you, comrade, but I’m only interested in the obituaries.”
“But comrade, the obituaries are at the back!”
“Not the ones I am looking for.”
Meanwhile, Jake Tapper has been asleep at the switch, if you know what I mean.

Rewarding Traitors, the Enshittification of Our Government
The Air Force is offering full military honors to a person who shit all over her oath.
Providing military honors to a putschist who was trying to overturn the government as part of Trump's first coup is despicable. The Nazis who died in Hitler's failed putsch also got full honors once his second coup succeeded.
That's the roll that the GOP and the Senile Orange Agent are on, nowadays: Honoring traitors and rewriting history so that treason is patriotic.
The U.S. government is offering military funeral honors for Ashli Babbitt, the rioter who was killed at 35 by an officer in the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol.
Babbitt was a U.S. Air Force veteran from California who was shot dead wearing a Trump campaign flag wrapped around her shoulders while attempting to climb through the broken window of a barricaded door leading to the Speaker’s Lobby inside the Capitol.
Offering military honors to one of the Capitol rioters is part of President Donald Trump’s attempts to rewrite that chapter after the 2020 election as a patriotic stand, given he still denies he lost that election. Babbitt has gained martyr status among Republicans, and the Trump administration agreed to pay just under $5 million to settle a wrongful-death lawsuit that her family filed over her shooting.

Activation Assholes
The rule is that if a National Guardsman is activated for 30 days or more, they are eligible for full active-duty benefits, including Tricare (medical) for themselves and their dependents.
Watch to see how long those guardsmen who were activated this month stay on duty. I'm betting that it's no more than 29 days, because Generalissimo Bonespurs screws everybody in the military, because to him, they are all suckers and losers.
And a reminder:

The Horrors of Fighting Crime in the Nation's Capital
National Guard troops, activated to assist in fighting crime, are spending their days picking up litter with their bare hands, raking leaves and spreading mulch.
Being yanked away from their jobs and families for an emergency is one thing. Having that happen to do yard chores is quite another.
This should do wonders for both recruiting and retention.

The Grifting Engine Continues
You have to know that somebody's beak is getting wet.
A multi-billion dollar contract to a home-based small business, yeah, that doesn't stink one bit. [/sarc]
When President Donald Trump’s administration last month awarded a contract worth up to $1.2 billion to build and operate what it says will become the nation’s largest immigration detention complex, it didn’t turn to a large government contractor or even a firm that specializes in private prisons.
Instead, it handed the project on a military base to Acquisition Logistics LLC, a small business that has no listed experience running a correction facility and had never won a federal contract worth more than $16 million. The company also lacks a functioning website and lists as its address a modest home in suburban Virginia owned by a 77-year-old retired Navy flight officer.

The Navy's Turn to Fluff Trump
The U.S. Navy is reportedly planning a lavish parade of its own after a multimillion-dollar military parade earlier this year left President Donald Trump feeling flat.
...
A new report in The Wall Street Journal has intel from the president’s administration that a do-over parade could be in the works—this time taking place at sea.
Trump told his aides that he was disappointed with the marching in the June event, according to the Journal, and was hoping the Navy could deliver a grander celebration.
The president is reportedly “hoping for a shimmering spectacle with seacraft,” the Journal noted.
"Shimmering spectacle"? Has he seen the rust buckets that pass for the surface Navy nowadays?
Wouldn't it be cheaper to use the West Wing slush fund to buy him some hookers on a regular basis?
