1) He may not remember what he said two weeks ago
2) We didn't believe him then...
3) He rarely knows what he is talking about
4) He is so old and frail now that he has to sit down for most meetings.
5) And I've seem 90 year olds out on the golf course, so that is no great physical feat

As long as there is such a thing as CLIMATE CHANGE, there will be 'climate emigration'.
Every country needs to find a civilized way to deal with both Legal and Illegal immigration.

So much for solving the war DAY ONE!
But Trump is being a traitor to everyone except Putin

Absolutely true, with so many court systems just pushing them along after INCOMPETENT Police and Lawyers FAILED AT THEIR JOBS!
Read Grisham 'An Innocent Man', or see it on Netflix.

WE NEED TO FIX THIS

Cassidy Got Pledges From Kennedy on Vaccines. They Haven’t Stuck.

Cassidy, like so many other GOP Congresspeople, HAS NO GUTS, NO HONOR, and NO BACKBONE.
He let Kennedy walk all over him.
Where's the pushback?

Opinion | Does Trump Know the Price of Milk?

Does Trump know the price of milk?
No, and he is unaware that you can get a gallon for under $3 at one store and $5 at another.
AND HE DOESN'T CARE
SO HE MAKES UP WHAT EVER HE THINKS SOUNDS GOOD!

Usually when an organization 'needs' to cut costs they use 'experts in their fields' to analyze redundancies and excesses. DOGE was a bunch of 'nerds' who just made up some stupid rules for themselves and started cutting, not taking anything into account except salaries.

Epstein said 'Trump is insane' in one of his emails.
So why does it surprise anyone that Trump has devolved to the point where he sees any defiance or disrespect of him to be illegal, and traitorous...

The GOP/MAGA favor corporations and companies OVER Unions and Workers; They favor low taxes AND low wages, small safety net, pay-as-you-go education, "BEG FOR FOOD" SNAP benefits, pedophiles OVER children, Insurrectionists OVER Police, and they don't care that millions will die from Climate Change

Didn't Russia already MAKE and BREAK the promise to protect Ukraine if they gave up their Nuclear weapons?

And tell me HOW keeping Ukraine from joining NATO will protect it from a future invasion like the Crimea action?

Jan 6 was an insurrection.
A video describing a law, not so much.
I can't help but get the impression that Trump reacted so vociferously because he has given 'illegal orders'!

Everyone recognizes that Pedophelia is BAD!
Even pedophiles!
Everyone wants Pedophiles STOPPED and Punished.
Except the Pedophiles!
Trump has the power to OPEN ALL THE FILES.
LOGIC.
There can be only two reasons to withhold the files;
Protect your friends
Protect yourself

Trump HAS NO FRIENDS

Trump's penchant for pedophiles, insurrectionists, dictators, and white collar criminals does not seem to bother MAGA!

But if you are DEM, you better not misrepresent yourself to a mortgage banker!

Yes:
Make Trump pay for the whole thing, including the remodel which a normal president will do, out of his CRYPTO earnings!

Quite a reach; Biden and Obama, in favor of gun laws and mental health research, seem responsible for a guy who likes TikTok, voted for Trump, and wanted to be famous for killing a famous person!
Wisconsin is nuts for electing him!

U.N. Sounds Alarm On Catastrophic Hunger Crisis Following Trump Aid Cuts Some 318 million people are expected to face crisis levels of hunger or worse next year, more than double the number in 2019.

ANOTHER new QUALITY offered by the NEW GOP/MAGA
Letting children and families starve so we can give tax breaks to the wealthy.
Letting people die from curable diseases so we can give tax breaks to the rich.

IF IT ISN'T OUR RESPONSIBILITY, WHOSE IS IT?

Jon; I wonder if that may be because we were indoctrinated with the idea that "our reward will be in the hereafter".

And perhaps the indoctrination was needed to keep us from rebelling against employers who refused to pay wages adequate to raise our families 'decently'...

THIS (below) IS PATENTLY UNTRUE!

Trump ASSAULTS DEMOCRATS
