The problem with Congress is C-SPAN. Video cameras probably need banned inside Congress to restore healthy functioning to Congress and the Federal government.

“Ukraine is the bad guys too,” says the clearly British ‘David loadsofnumbers’ apparently from South Gloucestershire. Bad botty botty bot bot.

Sometimes it looks like Ukraine is the bad guys too. How can this be stopped, Francis? x.com/vick55top/stat…

Forget DOGE, forget the debt, put Elon Musk in charge of a $10 trillion program to reindustrialize America at lightning speed and crush every competitor into the fucking dust. America has been sleeping 60 years. America will awaken.

I remember when Very Smart People made fun of Jared Kushner after he said he had read 25 books on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. The intelligent thing to do would have been to ask him for his reading list.

Marco Rubio co-signed a letter in support of the nomination of María Corina Machado for the Nobel Peace Prize. Here’s the letter he and several other GOP lawmakers sent to the Nobel committee last year. Mike Waltz also co-signed the letter. rickscott.senate.gov/services/files…

President Trump will continue making peace deals, ending wars, and saving lives. He has the heart of a humanitarian, and there will never be anyone like him who can move mountains with the sheer force of his will. The Nobel Committee proved they place politics over peace.

FWIW, I’m literally in a CNN studio right now. I’m a CNN contributor. The first paragraph of this CNN story is just wrong. As a factual, legal, and moral matter, Hamas started the war in Gaza. The giveaway was when they invaded Israel and raped, murdered, and kidnapped a bunch of…

David French is a friend with whom I sometimes disagree. A lot of those who have abandoned the GOP over Trump could stand some of his moral clarity on this Jay Jones issue, but are instead silent for political convenience.

A spectacular example of Orwellian doublespeak from the UK Home Secretary: "Just because you have a freedom doesn’t mean you have to use it at every moment of every day." In fact the ability do something whenever you want is practically the definition of a freedom.

The Trump regime is adept at leveraging actual long-simmering policy issues in decades-long morass in congress, "Doing Something" that fucks it all up in a new way, then basking in opponents insisting everything was fine before – which voters know it wasn't. Sick hack though...

This is shitty and lame. These national guard guys don't want to be in DC any more than DC residents want them there. They want to be home with their families. Annoy the people who decided to send them there in the first place.

Leave these guys alone. They're doing nothing wrong. They're following lawful orders and doing their duty.

The war grinds on not because Putin is strong, but because the West permits it. In January, one could have made an argument - though I would not have agreed - that a new administration could disengage, realign regionally, and turn inward. But that is no longer where we stand.…
