Trump could start a ground war - and institute the draft - and Congress would do nothing.
Dems would continue to say "wait till the midterms".
Obama in his tan suit
Struck a deal to contain Iran's nuclear program forever.
Didn't go to war in Iran.
DID IT ALL IN A TAN SUIT.
Just for the record, Reform UK also didn’t win any council by-elections tonight.
Surely this calls in to question Nigel Farage’s leadership.

He's a solid grifter. All he thinks about is money.
That holiday would not have cost him a penny.
Reform is a limited company.
The judges in WV have seen enough.
They say that if the ICE continues detaining people in ways they have unanimously deemed illegal they will start issuing civil fines and contempt findings — including against state officials who help them carry it out.

47 does not have the mentality to be presidential.
He has the mental age of an 11-year-old child.
He is driven by vindictiveness, just like a bully in the school playground.
This is not a good quality for anyone whatever their age.
We are ALL in danger, and some of us will die.
I’m so fucking tired of hearing about Trump every fucking day..

47 is seriously mentally ill and needs removing from office.
Don't you think enough damage has been done?
GOP are corrupt and also need removing.
A world on edge as Trump bombs Iran and triggers war in the Middle East. There was no need for this.
We cannot know where this foolish, reckless attack will end – but new hatreds will be seeded, terrorist vendettas sown and, ultimately, little will be achieved
US and Israel launch major attack on Iran as Tehran retaliates across the Middle East
Trump’s unprovoked attack on Iran has no mandate – or legal basis
Ahh yes. He is our man of PISS.
Every senator who voted to confirm RFK Jr owns this tragedy. Every single one.

IF AMERICA IS SUCH A SUPER POWER COUNTRY, HOW COULD A CORRUPT AMERICAN AND THE RICHEST PEOPLE IN THE WORLD TAKE OVER THE AMERICAN GOVERNMENT FOR ALL THE WORLD TO SEE?
I mean what the fuck!
NUMBER ONE,SHE'S A WOMAN.
NUMBER TWO,SHE'S A CLINTON..
Epstein files contain explicit but unsubstantiated claim that Trump abused minor
Department of Justice did not release FBI memos when it uploaded millions of pages of files beginning in December
Just how many breaks will chump be given FFS.
ICE lock away thousands, unsubstantiated.
Sorry Savannah, Keystone Kash fired all the agents working on your case because they did their job on other cases.

Just my take
Canada is our ally ally
Making a hockey game a political prop is uncalled for
Trump Giving a medal of freedom to a hockey player for one game against our ally is uncalled for
Sure celebrate give praise but
Making Canada be perceived as some villain is wrong
This isn’t 1980
My father, my sweet Daddy, passed away on Tuesday.
Devastated doesn't even begin to describe it.

Rosa Parks refused to surrender her seat in Montgomery & exposed the cruelty of segregation to the world.
Oppression depends on compliance.
Freedom begins the moment we refuse!
They called it the rules.
She called it injustice!
Stay defiant! ✊🏽

He doesn’t like doing things to benefit the people. He not at all interested.
He lies and takes credit for the good things that President Biden & others have done because lying & bragging are less work & what he does best.
In a case brought to the High Court of Justice by the Good Law Project in June 2021, Gove was found to have acted unlawfully when the Government awarded a COVID-19 contract without a tender to Public First, a polling company owned by long-term associates of his
