It wouldn't work any better than impeachment as long as the majority of Congress is complicit.

Nothing says "America First" like using the excuse of other country's deaths to send Americans to their deaths.

The problem is that we used up our good quality crude decades ago. Our refineries aren't capable of processing the low-quality stuff, so we export it, and refineries import the Brent quality crude. The "drill baby drill" thing only means we export more than we import.

Every group has its stupid people, right?
The problem is that the stupid people are easier to gather into a group and make them believe bullshit, and the next thing you know, they outvote the smart people and install a conman pedophile as president.
Canada has a lower percentage of stupidity, though

The disease has been spreading to Canada, though, so your opinion matters just as much.

it took just over a year to get from "I'll lower costs on day one" to "I'm raising prices and it's good, actually"

Yeah, it takes maga logic to think, "I'm paying higher prices so that I can be rich"

Two headlines that explain the Iraq war.
It's called reverse Robin Hood.

Yes. Having a stupid FBI is tragic even without everything else going on.

I know this has been around for 20 years, but it's still one of my favorite news clips

I don’t think unconditional surrender is imminent.

LOL sure... drones that fly 8000 miles.
Obviously, all of the smart people have resigned from the FBI.

This is always a sign of a major recession coming.

I agree. Incredible acting on that show. And the deadpan humor kills me.

Well, he's 83 years old and has committed to two more seasons of Shrinking, which means he'll be 85 or 86 when it's done... that's not really that sad.

Brett Goldsten helped write both shows.
You can tell... same quick humor.

I agree.
Harrison Ford has stated that it will be the last thing he does as an actor.

Hegseth blew $93 Billion on stuff the military didn't need,
That's more than what USAID would have spent in four years.
Trump also cut $7 billion from public schools, causing 33,000 teachers to lose their jobs.
Tell me how this is "America First."

Johnson is in the top 10 most stupid people in Congress.

An unintended consequence of the idiot's war, higher oil prices will make EVs and solar/wind more appealing.
