A Night Off With Chickens I’ve had lots of travel and lots of travel delays in the last week, so I’m going to take a night off now that I’m safely back home, and get a little extra sleep.

So Let's recap for a second time.

Donald Trump is not only not protecting the USA.

He's not protecting our soldiers.

He's allowing Russia to put bounties again on the heads of our soldiers , just like HE DID HIS FIRST TERM.

he's also stopping or slowing sanctions.

WHO EXACTLY DOES HE WORK FOR?

People sometimes wonder why people in other countries don't like America. Look at what felon imperialist Trump is doing. He is the epitome of why people don't like America.

It could not be more obvious that the president does not care about US service members and in fact regards their deaths as mere political inconveniences. He has more sympathy for Putin than Americans who died because he decided to wage illegal war. Just listen to him.

1/ Russian bloggers are waking up to the fact that they live in an oppressive dictatorship with declining living standards. 14 years after Vladimir Putin was reelected as "a strong leader for a great country," commentators are asking: what has Putin ever done for us? ⬇️

Massie on Newsmax: "We're not getting the answers we need from Pam Bondi. I just spent 3 hours at the DOJ this week looking at the unredacted files. And I'm finding evidence of files they haven't released yet." (Note that the Newsmax anchor agrees with him!)

Trump has the most useless, unqualified, corrupt administration in American history. And it starts at the very top with Donald Trump, guilty of all the above.

Reverend Jesse Jackson called on each of us to be heralds of change, to be messengers of hope; to step forward and say β€œSend me” wherever we have a chance to make an impact.

How fortunate we were that Jesse Jackson answered that call. What a great debt we owe to him.

Basically all of the bad economic news this term is because the president deliberately decided to do something moronic. He is much more personally responsible for this than most presidents are for the downturns in their administration.
