We need an Ida Tarbell looking at the modern day robber barons
General Big Mac
Didn't need to be a national security expert to know trying to bomb your way to regime change in a mountainous country of 90m people won't work, and a ground invasion will go worse than Iraq & Afghanistan. But enjoy even higher prices on stuff thanks to oil costs www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article...
Kristi Noem firing doesn’t matter. As long as Stephen Miller is still there, nothing will change. Meathead Markwayne Mullen tried to fight a Trump-aligned Union Leader (!) during a Senate hearing.

This is the thing… you aren’t doing regime change without boots on the ground.
The last two times we botched regime change we got ISIS, a return of the Taliban and wasted a ton of money that could have went to better causes.
Rug pulling Shitcoins he dupes his base into buying is where he is on this
Finishing up "A Brave New World" and came across the King Lear quote "As flies to wanton boys are we to the gods; They kill us for their sport." www.youtube.com/watch?v=INiT...
John Tyler sided with the Confederacy. Only living former president to do so. He can rot.
Well, FDR and Truman were much closer to the DSA in social policies than they were to the Clinton Democrats. So should it really be that much of a surprise?
If you watched Pam Bondi's congressional testimony and you don't think this is the biggest government cover-up in American history, I don't know what to say to you.

I would vote for Gisele instead of John every day of the week
Yes
Just mentioned to someone yesterday that I wonder what percentage of ICE is former Proud Boy, right wing militia, etc
President Stephen Miller is out of control domestically and internationally
Government by the billionaires, for the billionaires
Bombing the capital of a country that you aren’t at war with and abducting its leader seems highly illegal.
Greatly enjoying @ronaldchernow.bsky.social George Washington biography after his great Grant biography. One of the more interesting learnings is that Washington's mother was something of an 18th Century Livia Soprano.
You also didn’t make it out of Chapter 1 in Red Dead Redemption 2 as I recall…
The term reactionary should be used in conjunction with MAGA figures far more often and the difference between a conservative and a reactionary should be highlighted.
Successful presidents don't name things after themselves (or have their lackeys do it). Things get named after them years after they are out of office, because they did a good job.
In this case, this stooge will have his name removed from things like his spiritual forbearers in the Confederacy.
Like most bullies, Trump is a COWARD who backs down from confronting Putin, fails to back our European allies Russia & our Asian allies against China.
Focusing on only the Western Hemisphere is a retreat & a weakening of the USA’s position.
Paul Warburg puts it well:

Who even wants this conflict with Venezuela other than relatively tiny amount of the population that consists of oil industry executives, Venezuelan exiles in South Florida and probably Cuban exiles in South Florida who erroneously think Cuba will be next (it has no oil)?
Republican Senators have only themselves to blame. Hegseth was obviously unqualified and they should not have confirmed him. Their spineless rubber stamping of Trump’s aggressively unqualified appointees is damaging the military, economy, healthcare and many other areas.
If David Ortiz is in why are the other juicers excluded? Because he’s a nice guy and they were assholes / weirdos?
The large media outlets have been either bought by right wing billionaires or intimidated into compliance. Thank goodness for comedy - shows like South Park & SNL, late night hosts - continuing to call out the obscenity of the regime.
