Just watched Obama give his speech at the Jackson Memorial. I don’t care how you feel about him, that man can give a speech. He has a unique gift.

So far the war in Iran has cost an estimated $5.5 billion.

That's roughly $1 billion per day.

$41,666,667 per hour.

$11,574 per second.

People do not want this.

They want a living wage. They want healthcare. They want to be able to afford a home. They want their basic needs met.

Future generations will refer to #WorldWarIII as

THE PEDOPHILE WAR.

trump says he will do whatever it takes, spend hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars, sacrifice as many of American lives, kill as many of Iranian school girls as necessary to stop you from talking about the Epstein files

Does Nobel have a prize for β€œIgnorance” or β€œTotal Incompetence”. I have a president I want to nominate.

It’s a shame to put our military at risk just because a convicted felon doesn’t want us to find out about how many young girls he raped and abused.

That is like saying some Palestinians killed an Israeli than all Palestinians are murderers and should be condemned.

500,000 Americans went there, to say we all treated the people of South Viet Nam, the people we were sent there to protect with any thing other than kindness and respect is uninformed and ignorant

The people in the village where I was at would disagree with you, we protected them. Many worked for and with us. They were upset when we were leaving because they knew they couldn’t defend themselves against the communists. They were good people and I respected them.

She read in my bio that I was a Viet Nam veteran like her father, and thanked me for serving my country unlike many draft dodgers. You seem very righteous but I don’t see the need.

I read it was a fake post and when Democrats shared it they would be accused of lying and spreading fake news.

I remember a girl in grade school with braces from her chest to her ankles, walked with two canes. Loud clanking noises, I felt sorry for her. And then she was gone. I can’t imagine being against something that would prevent that.
