France is calling for the US to return the Statue of Liberty because the US no longer represents the values that led France to offer the statue.
My bet? The Donald will go for it: Those pesky Frogs meddling in American affairs. It’s probably responsible for all those criminal illegal immigrants crossing the southern border. I am not a crank.
Obfuscation, chicanery, skullduggery, and sophisticated refinements thereof
Zero intelligence secrets, sources, or methods are put at risk by showing a video of a boat exploding, or of shipwrecked people clinging to boat pieces hit by a missile and exploding.
Such a video reveals absolutely nothing about how the US identified that boat, located it, or chose to attack it.

More akin to exproprionomics, JD
This…is not economics
Vance: "Why have rents gone down for 4 consecutive months? Because we're starting to get those illegal aliens out of the USA. Those criminals, those gang members, those people that are taking homes that ought by right go the people in this room. It's simple economics."

Trump has pardoned 17 drug dealers and nearly 1600 people who attacked Congress on January 6, 2021.
Johnson: “If you’re going to restore the people’s faith in the justice system, you have to show them that there are serious consequences for people like Jack Smith who abuses that system.”

So much the better l.
From the new chief of Britain's MI6:
"Hundreds of thousands have died, with the toll mounting every day, because of Putin’s historical distortions and his compromised desire for respect. He is dragging out negotiations and shifting the cost of war onto his own population."

You are confused about the process here. “If they’re guilty they arrest them….
That’s the regime under the Red Queen: “Sentence first, verdict afterwards.”
Guilt is determined after trial, not before.
This sounds like judgement by fifty-two pick-up.

One reason why Republicans won't extend expiring ACA subsidies?
Koch-backed lobby groups have spent over $1.1M pressuring GOP lawmakers to let 20M Americans' health insurance costs go up.

You know which law enforcement agency isn't considered a threat to terrorists? Yeah, ICE. They would run FROM a shooter instead of running towards the danger. Because ICE is an agency made of cowards and bullies.

After taking over housing and healthcare, private equity is now buying up software used by volunteer fire departments — making it even harder for rural communities to respond to emergencies.

You’ve answered your own question: Nothing.
It pains me to no end that Democratic politicians and the DNC won’t do more to end this travesty of a government asap because they see a truly non-functional government and a bigoted malignant narcissistic “president” as politically expedient. What will they do if the country no longer exists?
