Who's corrupt?

Except Ukraine is a white Christian country with the usual proportion of heterosexual persons of both sexes.

But they're not Americans.

Speaker Johnson: Putin is 'not to be trusted, and he is dangerous'

President Musk and VP Felon are going to "fire" some congresspeople if they don't start slobbin' on Vlad like Bent-knee Bessent, Tiny Marco and the others.

Shot: "There's a whole big, oh, you can work from home," Trump said. "Nobody's going to work from a home. They're going to be going out. They're going to play tennis. They're going to play golf. They're going to do a lot of things. They're not working."

Chaser: Kash Patel's appointment as FBI director seems to be coming with conditions: He wants to live part-time in Las Vegas and work remotely, far away from FBI headquarters in Washington.

We got questioned about Trump in Havana in 2018. My reply was "el presidente es muy loco en la cabeza."

NYT: President Trump has directed federal agencies to examine ways to bypass endangered species protections and other environmental regulations to ramp up logging across 280 million acres of national forests and other public lands.

Perhaps because a lot of logging comes from Canada?

 

[Neutral Corner]

Perhaps because he's a greedy jackass who does not care if the national forests are logged flat?

The funny thing about the timber industry, the advancements and tech involved have drastically cut the number of people needed. We have people out this way who bemoan the lost jobs and don't realize the "industry" didn't need them on the day they were born - environmental laws or no.

By order of Hegseth: "Kristen Geist, the first woman to graduate from the Army's grueling Ranger School, has been erased from some of the service's social media and its publicly accessible media database, the Defense Visual Information Distribution Service, or DVIDS."


Army Deleting Online Content Related to Women, Minorities Using Key Words Like 'Respect' and 'Dignity'

This is disgusting. And is it really worth all that?

Not to mention that "justice," "dignity" and "respect" are part and parcel of being in the Army (or any military service)!

I simply can't get past the sense, lately, that this is all so Orwellian. And frankly, it seems unnecessary, like overkill, illegal, and all the more reason to remove Trump from the Presidency.

I can't understand how there isn't more of a movement/effort going on to try to do that. It seems to me there are grounds for it. How can everybody around him and in Washington be just fine with everything that's gone on?

Ding, ding, ding!
