I assume that's FDR’s first term, but yes this is far too difficult to look at.

The strange thing is that Trump talks out of both sides of his mouth far more than any stereotype of a Clintonian gladhander. But he also has a reputation as a "tell it like it is" guy. You can say the latter just bc racism or bellicosity, but I think it's beyond that.

The Milley-Pelosi-Pence triumvirate doesn't count?

Very weird that no one's dug deeper on his obvious honey trap marriage (or engagement or whatever it was)

I don't expect russia to disappear. But if we arm Ukraine and provide legit security guarantees (sadly not forthcoming from the US), Ukraine will be in a better place to defend or prevent this from happening again. So long as russia remains the captor of nations.

Точно.

Russia, in its current form, can't conceive of itself without Ukraine. At least as a dependent state.

The good news is that even after rearming itself for the past 10+ years, it was still unable to succeed in its conquest.

I also hint on what would be a just peace for Ukrainians.

It was 2010 before Dems in congress started to hide from town halls. This is one month in. And these days far more of us are online to hound our representatives.

Or even book a space, invite the media and the congressperson. Then when they don't show you can get local coverage about their absence.

That this is not about increasing efficiency or improving service or achieving cost reductions.

When they lie to me, and you, they are saying they don't give a shit about us and are really just trying to distract us as they try to strip this country for wire.

Arguments about the price of media mail. Hell, even Germany has privatized mail service.

I'm sure perfectly valid points can be made for what they're getting at. But when they pretend they don't know any of this, or that older and rural Americans depend on medication shipments, that tells me

That fucking Amazon uses them! It's been a big boost to their revenue. It's also the reason they deliver on Sunday. I also know they don't depend on taxes to function (that's is how I know this one is an op).

There are even reasonable
