Not sure, I don’t want to miss WWIII and that’s on at the same time. (Dark humor)
Y’all.

"Jews don't belong in American society."
Imagine a sitting member of Congress tweeting that. You can't. Thankfully, it'd never happen. And *if* it did, it'd be the end of their career and the biggest story in America.

Lindsey’s diplomacy working wonders in UAE.
I’m not convinced it was unintentional since another strike happened in the same spot when the rescue workers were there. Sounds to me like it was what they call a double-tap, like what the Russians are doing in Ukraine. I hate that we can’t trust our government right now.
Trump on January 22, 2020 when the CDC confirmed the first US covid case: “We have it totally under control. It's one person coming in from China, and we have it under control. It's going to be just fine.”
This is disgusting. Risking lives for their own selfish greed. I despise those people so much...and the feeling is growing.
Well, this aged exactly how I was afraid it would
