Encouraging to see all the MAGAs running to enlist for the coming conflict.

I’m sorry, I’m being told that they haven’t yet. Well, I’m sure that’s just a temporary oversight.

Is he trying to give them whiplash? No, seriously, I feel like this is intentional now.
Just when the paid MAGA shills got done cranking out 36 hours of posts to their divided cult that this was only about nukes and not regime change, Trump does it again …

So Jethro Vance called Senator Padilla “Jose” instead of Alex because he just used a stereotype instead of learning his actual first name

My theory is that they weren’t soldiers, but paid participants who didn’t know how to march.
I promise y’all: marching in step is quite easy. Nothing difficult about it. That bad marching was intentional. I guarantee it.

Seems like everyone got what they deserved
Many of the LA Sheriffs didn't have their gas masks on yet so the Sheriffs got gassed by LAPD
LAPD was on the radio crying about getting shot by rubber bullets by the sheriffs, so I'd say fair trade
Typical level of professional policing for Los Angeles. Waiting for CHP to join the fun.

It doesn't matter.
Your gauge of success is wrong.
What does matter is getting more content, and I'm referring to current, immediate content that's relevant, i.e. videos and commentary about ICE raids, etc.
People and media need to stop using Twitter.

Is this a case of things “falling off the back of the truck” so we can sell them (or give them) to Russia?
Two fighter jets gone in a week, totaling over $100 million. Hopefully Hegseth can put the bottle down long enough to explain to DOGE.

This will be interesting to watch. If SCOTUS agrees, there could be a lot of opting out in all those states that just bought bibles and Ten Commandments signs for their schools.
The Supreme Court is deciding if parents have the right to keep their kids out of school lessons that include LGBTQ themed curriculum.

Yes we had trade deficits under Biden. Because he fixed the economy that F34 broke. Are those trade deficits disappearing? Yes, because Americans can’t afford to buy stuff again thanks to the cratering economy.
