Trump multiple times just today has said the country is at war. War can only be declared by Congress, and Iran posed no imminent threat. What Trump is doing there is a textbook illegal war and impeachable offense β if we still had a Congress.
trump has numbed me to a lot of things but the lack of fucking respect will never stop galling me
"Kamala ran a PERFECT campaign!"
My sibling in Christ, she spent a million dollars putting her face on the Vegas sphere.

It's all fun and games until MarkWayne meets his nemesis, JackBob, and gets assimilated into his mass.
The world is not ready for a fully powered up MarkWayneJackBob to appear on the scene

lol, just finished calltime and saw that Noem got fired WHILE she was giving a live press conference, and that just sums up the casual cruelty and incompetence of this administration in a nutshell
I loved this show very very much a long time ago
it is long past time to let it (and certainly Whedon and Baldwin) fade away
