No government, any more than an individual, will long be respected without being truly respectable
Yeah, novel notion. The Great state of Texas needs Jesus

They are oblivious to reality. 30 years ago, even 20 years ago that argument could have been made. But the US, unfortunately, is dependent upon China’s manufacturing base and rare earth minerals for nearly every facet of American consumption. There blinders are drilled into their heads.

Any officials that took part in the Signal Message thread with Goldberg must be investigated, at the very least, and, in moderation, fired or forced to resign. The biggest Nat’l Security leak in 50 years can’t fall on the incompetent, deaf ears of the Republicans. Time to play hardball Dems

We’re in agreement then. For CRs to pass, they require bipartisan support i.e. both parties. Instead of pressuring the aspects of CR, perhaps vying for a continuation of a month instead of year, Trump’s dangerous ideas are sure to speed run the Hill

They only care about their own glutinous self-interest. While claiming that entitlement programs need to be axed in the name of fraud and waste cuts, Musk continues to reap immense wealth off from secured government contracts, living off the backs of the American people.

40 Democrats have thus far voted for $4.5 Trillion in tax cuts to the Top 1% of citizens and the death of essential services that the people rely on

If America was led with the same leadership and vigor as California, we would still have the respect of our international partners and dignity as Americans. But instead, the majority of participating voters have chose and condone the worst among us to lead.

This country is entitled to better representation. We are effectively paying our taxes to feed and cloth billionaires, oligarchic-acolytes, and grifters to NOT represent the American constituency. A change must arise

The rise of anti-intellectualism among those who lead the highest organizations of government could be the death of many Americans when these tariffs affect energy consumption, jobs, and food security.The Trump administration is the most reckless, bloodsucking and vile administration in recent times

Here is my definition of “great”: it is the ability to exact a reputation above what is expected of mankind. Senator Schiff’s support for all of the American people and his vehement opposition to the malign influence of Trump, reflects greatness in principles, candor and agency. Americans thank you

Remains to be seen. I would not put it past them —taking into account he staged an assassination attempt on his life, and then promoted the Head of his detail during that event, when he normally would have been fired and vilified, was made the Head of Secret Service. Hmm…

If Ontario PM Ford would have cut off electricity to the U.S., any American death American would spell a war crime as well. His rhetorical endorsement last week of placing the entirety of Americans at fault for Trump’s misguided economic policy is dangerous and clearly collective punishment by law

But, he is a moron and can’t even actualize his own strategic aims, let alone understand that the public is turning against him.

Too bad the Trump administration made it official policy of the United States to Not recognize the authority of the ICC, and hence neither under the investigatory jurisdiction thereof, because Trump could have used this opportunity to raise the escalation ladder with Canada to achieve his aims.

In the event Ford would have cut off electricity to segments of the U.S., any death of an American would spell a war crime, which is illegal under international law. His rhetorical endorsement of placing the entirety of Americans at fault for Trump’s misguided economic policy is dangerous.
