Nah, not bragging, just pointing out you can have citizenship in more than one country. I've lived in the US since I was a toddler and served 20 years in the USAF. These days I'm more likely to use my Aussie passport to enter Canada.

Funny, I was just in Shreveport this past weekend. My impression? Mostly huge casino/hotels and personal injury lawyers. Oh, and run-down neighborhoods and closed stores. Yep, ol' MJ's constituents are in great shape. SMDH.

It's a shame (!) the VA secretary, who is/was also a chaplain, finds the ability to lie just as easily as his boss. Of course, if shame were an issue, we wouldn't be in this mess to begin with.

When Truman was in office, the White House was deemed uninhabitable by government structural engineers. Basically, the interior hadn't been updated much since it was rebuilt after the War of 1812. So, you know, same thing. SMH.

Military personnel (except the Coast Guard, because they fall under DHS, not DoD) will still be paid, as will VA employees. Almost everyone else is SOL, except for members of Congress of course. I hate this stupid timeline.

Oh, and we might as well go back and take Da Nang AB (Vietnam) since it's probably close to Chinese something or other.

JFC - proving once again, Afghanistan is where empires go to die. As an Afghan campaign vet, I will say this is the stupidest of ideas in an administration full of stupid ideas.

Gross. He was a semi-celebrity who was buddies with Dear Leader. To lower the flags in his 'honor' is to disparage those who've been honored in the recent past, such as Pope Francis and Jimmy Carter. There is no comparison.
