So Putin thinks there is something scared about the territorial borders of Russia. It is an empire and deserves all the territory it can take . Russia invaded Ukraine and our response is to reward them. Trump is a fool and Vance is a mean spirited fool. This will not end well.

Rep. John McGuire: "I don't know if you heard about the BLT sandwich -- using human fetus baby parts in the vaccine when they could've used ivermectin"

So trump is going to increase tariffs on Canada because of the difficulty and inconvenience the smoke from the wild fires in Canada are causing in America. Does he still believe that Americans don’t know they will pay those tariffs. He is such a fool.

Been watching Fox out of curiosity and the level of ass kissing is embarrassing. These people have no soul. Their trump suck up is truly extraordinary. I feel sorry for them and total lack of understanding of the damage they do daily.

The Justice Dept. is currently persuing cases against States that have banned certain types of firearms. We already have more guns than people in USA. Why can’t gun manufacturers bring their own law suits? Why can’t States decide what is right for them?

I have a very close friend how is a Harvard MBA as well as a great guy. Retired now, his job was to judge the value of opportunities. He came back from a trip to Asia - Nepal, Thailand etc and couldn’t stop talking about how great the Chinese electric cars are. Why can’t we buy them here?

Iran has stated in the past that their desire to have nuclear weapons is to ensure their survival in a hostile world. They’ve learned they can’t believe anything Trump says. Why would they give up nukes?

Every Republican on the news shows talks about the treaty Obama had in place with Iran when he left office. He gave them tons of money, they could continue to develop nuclear weapons… in total bullshit. The treaty was working , we had monitors, the money was theirs,we had ongoing discussions.

Also, we were building a civil relationship that very likely led to them actually trusting us. Trump cancelled it because he wanted to erase everything Obama did because he knew he could never measure up to the man. That’s why he had to kill Obama care. That’s why he puts his name on shit.

I saw video of Hexhead in a pulpit addressing a congregation, asking God to help him see those who don’t deserve mercy. Is anyone aware of any instance where Jesus reference anyone who didn’t deserve mercy. What religion does he follow?

If I were a potential client I would have to consider how dislikable Bondi was during her several appearances before Congress and wonder how many potential jurors saw her dismal performance.

Obama’s treaty with Iran was working. We had international monitors and they were living up to the conditions of the treaty. Trump threw it out because he hates anything Obama accomplished- much like Obama care. He is a fool and a liar.

After the White House complained about an unflattering photo of Karoline Leavitt, it was removed from AFP and Getty’s systems. This is the photo in question. Please do not repost it. 👇

Now Trump is going to close the Kennedy Center for 2 yrs to renovate. We’ve all seen pictures of his Trump Tower Apt and the Oval. Get ready for a gaudy, tasteless just ugly new version. He has the taste of a pimp.

Melania grossed $7million over the weekend. Does anyone know if actual people sat in seats and watched it with those tickets? I suspect the ticket sales are like DJT Jr.’s book sales, courtesy of the Nat’l Republican Committee.

Trumps people claim the violence in MN is/was caused by local politicians making inflammatory statements about ICE but what could be more inflammatory than telling the ICE dipshits they have total immunity.

The orange felon has made more money in less than a year than that of the last 18 US Presidents combined. He isn’t a President, he’s a tyrant, a rapist, a fraudster, a war criminal, a domestic terrorist and a murderer. He should be in jail, not the White House.

Trump is citing the Monroe Doctrine. We aren’t operating in 1823. There are Russian Submarines with the capability to launch nuclear weapons operating off the coast of America a lot closer than Venezuela. This is about oil!

If people admire you, they put your name on buildings. If you have to do it yourself, well… that’s different.
