No, like someone said, "It's like pooping your pants, then changing your shirt" but at least Kristi Noem is gone. Is Markwayne Mullin a source of pride or embarrassment?

No, it's an addiction, a sickness with us and it's incurable.😁 We can never get enough books and just can't seem to put them down, even for sleep 😊

Ali Velshi's guest (?) reports that Iran thought they had a peace deal worked out and they were shocked by the US attack. Too bad for them, a big distraction was needed and cancelling the David Copperfield contract in Las Vegas due to Epstein's friendship wasn't big enough.

They figured out killing children wasn't popular, bloody little backpacks don't make for a happy base.

Other countries are reporting serious strikes in Israel and Netanyahu has said anyone that reports this or puts footage out will go to jail for 5 years. I haven't been able to confirm with a second source.

He can't. He got arrested and might still be in jail.

Foreign countries are reporting on Israel getting pounded by Iran military on Saturday. I haven't confirmed this yet. Any US news on this?

It's not uncommon in the US to get a bill for a short medical procedure/ hospital stay for 1/4 of your annual income. I don't think the rest of the world knows this.

For more than three weeks, Ukrainian F-16s defended the skies without American missiles

To take down Russian drones, pilots relied on onboard guns. The F-16s no longer had missiles to intercept Russian drones and missiles after supplies were stopped.

No maybe about it. Don't forget the Venezuelans and others.

Frequently but it was usually the boss's stupid, lazy and entitled nephew who needed a job.

An article describing how a Norwegian immigrant married a US citizen but ICE detailed her and refused her insulin, causing blindness and almost killed her. In between, an ad from the common sense leadership fund lauds the president's "understanding of the art of the deal" and boosts his alleged pro-business agenda

An article describing how a Norwegian immigrant married a US citizen but ICE detailed her and refused her insulin, causing blindness and almost killed her. In between, an ad from the common sense leadership fund lauds the president's "understanding of the art of the deal" and boosts his alleged pro-business agenda

The contrast is ghoulish. A "pro-business" president nearly killing people because cruelty is the point.

We all have unique experiences and thoughts to share and if we have active minds, we are interested if what you share is thought provoking in us.

I think it's more likely $$$$$ but if he's that easily controlled, all anyone has to do is learn a few lines of scripture to make him heel.

Trump has always been a DAHA. Dimly Aware He's Alive. Wave a stack of dollar bills in front of him and he'll do tricks for you. An Eastern European child works too.

The most valuable and scarcest commodity in the Middle East is potable water, not oil. Iran has targeted the desalination plants. Trump's "action" (notawar) is costing 1 billion dollars a day. China and Russia are helping Iran. Buckle up.

Trump is getting more help to Putin, removing sanctions. Barron Trump invested millions in oil 4 days before Iran was bombed. Nice allowance. The whole family is made up of vampires, living off the blood of others.
