Has any man at the very rear of his army *ever* projected such sad main character energy?

It's almost like he wants us to forget he's a draft-dodger who called our soldiers "losers" and "suckers" and plotted illegal wars of the sort he got elected promising to avoid while demanding a peace prize

Russia is aiding Iran’s war effort by providing intel on US military targets, sources say | CNN Politics Russia is providing Iran with intelligence about the locations and movements of American troops, ships and aircraft, according to multiple people familiar with US intelligence reporting on the issue, ...

Super shocking. Given that Russia helped our enemies during Vietnam, Korea, and both gulf wars, who could have guessed this would happen. www.cnn.com/2026/03/06/p...

The US blockade of Cuba has no legal basis under international law. An island without an air force or modern artillery is not a security threat; it's a neighbour. If the United States genuinely believes otherwise, the UN Security Council exists for exactly that purpose.

A terrible February jobs report. The U.S. economy LOST 92,000 jobs last month, while the unemployment rate rose to 4.4%, one of the highest levels seen in the past few years.

December was revised down to -17,000 jobs, while January was revised to 126,000.

A new Senate report alleges that over 1,000 FEMA contracts, grants, or disaster assistance awards were delayed under Kristi Noem's watch.

Why?

Because she demanded to sign off on expenses over $100,000 β€” which delayed aid to victims of floods and hurricanes.

"Efficiency."

Jeffries: "The American people want us to focus on making their life better & more affordable, not getting involved in another endless war in Middle East that's going to end in failure.
