MILLER: The US is using its military to secure our interests unapologetically in our hemisphere. We're a superpower. It's absurd we'd allow a nation in our backyard to become a supplier of resources to our adversaries

No, Progressive commercial, I know they're doing their best and are underpaid, but sometimes you need to tell grocery food baggers how to properly stack items in the bag. Tough truth.

Surprised Fox 5 NY has not switched to another game with Pats now squishing the Fish. Even as Pats fan it makes sense to go Bears/Lions or Rams/Cards

Kudos to the Lions for once again playing hard against a divisional opponent last week of season (just like they did against Packers a few years ago) and try to fuck them up a little

Yet they do occupy the country in that they are grabbing the oil. Maybe Marco has a Bible verse he can cite instead
STEPHANOPOULOS: Why wasn't congressional authorization necessary?
RUBIO: It wasn't necessary because this was not an invasion. We didn't occupy a country. This was an arrest operation.

So do Bills care about winning today? Or is the start of Trubisky an example of how little they respect the Jets?

"compliant"
Marco Rubio: "It had to be done. And it's been done. And I assure you the people left behind in Venezuela now that are in charge of the police and everything else, I assure you they are gonna probably be a lot more compliant than Maduro was as a result of this."

"compliant"
All the Cubans and Venezuelans in Florida gonna be "requested" to move back
WELKER: Is the Cuban government the Trump administration's next target?
MARCO RUBIO: Well, the Cuban government is a huge problem. Yeah.
WELKER: Is that a yes?
RUBIO: I think they're in a lot of trouble, yes

Let's not forget, millions of Americans voted for Trump. They are our fellow citizens. So regardless of where we stand politically, it is imperative to reach out and tell each and every one of them that they are stupid fucking assholes.

Clark Neily has now written a longer post for Cato on the Maduro operation, which "appears to have been more about regime change than law enforcement.... The Constitution’s limits on foreign affairs power do not vanish simply because courts decline to enforce them." /2

This does seem just a little bit bad! Idk the sort of thing you’d think politicians might distance themselves from or something!

Stranger Things finale was over long, and at times just dumb. But overall it did very well. Kept me engaged, and the last scene set up to finish the series was brilliant, allowing the characters (and audience) to move on while not forgetting.
