Why can’t Congress declare that we will NOT go to war with Greenland and give it to the president.
If only Congress can declare war, then Congress should be able to negate one!

Terrorist,
I remember there was a time when being a terrorist was significant. A terrorist was a religious zealot who would fly a passenger plane into a building killing thousands. A domestic terrorist would blow up a federal building in Oklahoma.
Now a 37 year old mother is a domestic terrorist.

You should immediately deport the wife and five children (friends) of the terrorist that attempted to kill our two national garment in Washington DC.
Get them on the first flight back to Afghanistan while their husband/father rots in jail for the rest of his life

Sooner or later you’re going to have to realize that. Your disapproval reading is bad news.

Don’t count how many air traffic controllers don’t show up for work or call in sick.
Count how many DO show up for work every day?
It is really tough. I certainly appreciate them.

Eric Trump‘s interview with Smerconish proves that he is absolutely more interested in spreading HATE that selling his book.
How sad and unfortunate to have your entire life completely consumed by hate for others.

Smerconish really did try to get Eric Trump to talk about his new book “Under Siege”
I know I want to hear about it.
But every question resulted in why we hate Democrats. Why we hate Biden. They’re responsible for everything that’s going wrong.
Even a question about Mom turned into hating Biden.

Congratulations to the United States.
Trump just created his own private army. No questions allowed.
Half our taxes now go to someplace we are no longer allowed to know anything about.
If this isn’t sound like 1940 Germany, nothing does.

Under the new Pentagon rules, reporters may no longer ask questions 👉 under threat of criminal prosecution. They may only report what is officially released by the Pentagon. They may not report anything that is verbally advised to them.
This sounds like communist Russia, doesn’t it?

I hope the hostages are released.
I worry that there is so much huge pre-publicity before the exchange.
I worry, Hamas could take the opportunity to take one final stab at the outside world before their eventual extinction and not released hostages. While all the cameras of he world are on them.

It is important to understand that if the Democrats are successful in eliminating the affordable care act cost increase, then the cost of not receiving that additional monies, will add directly to the deficit as Republicans will not relinquish their tax cut

I have taken shots against Trump every morning in my post.
However, to give credit where credit is due, if there is still peace one year from today in the Middle East.
Then Trump should get the peace price

Trump didn’t win the Nobel prize. I am not surprised. And neither should he.
He doesn’t understand it is more about lifetime achievement award rather than what he might’ve done yesterday.
He pretty much blew any chance at all when he canceled USAID and then added tariffs.
Not exactly a qualifier.

Governor Abbott is bragging that HIS troops have landed in Chicago.
Illinois is being invaded by the state of Texas. I hope everyone makes them feel absolutely unwelcome as possible.
What happens when Texas National Guard opens fire on Illinois residents?

Pam Bondi is a piece of shit and the sergeant of arms he could slap the shit out of her until she’s crying on the floor begging to stop.
She’s a piece of shit that should be kicked out of the government. She’s insulting our Senate in our government.
Fuck her and fuck Trump
