Don’t just blame him alone. Blame the electorate that has chosen him. It was a fair election. He represents the mindset of more than half the population of the Untied States of America.

The emerging mission in the Caribbean looks less like enhanced interdiction and far more like the early shaping operations for regime-change in Venezuela. Just say no. ICYMI @markhertling.bsky.social: www.thebulwark.com/p/no-venezue...

Nothing to see here - just a dick swinging contest between two old misogynistic Islamophobic white men long past their best before date.
Friday night’s episode of ‘Real Time with Bill Maher’ turned into a Battle of the Bills when Maher and conservative commentator Bill O’Reilly got into a sparring match, trading barbs over which television personality was more popular.
