For me, it’s a virtual tie between him and Kyrsten Sinema. But I have to give her the nod because I sent her money and voted for her, but I only sent him money.

Just sit right back and you'll hear a tale,
a tale of a fateful trip,
that started from this tropic port,
aboard this tiny ship.
The mate was a mighty sailin' man,
the skipper brave and sure,
five passengers set sail that day,
for a three hour tour,
a three hour tour.

There is also a press release from CentCom, but I wasn’t able to copy it.

US jets shot down over Kuwait in 'apparent friendly fire incident', officials say The planes were "mistakenly shot down by Kuwaiti air defences", but all crew survived, Centcom says.

Now confirmed: 3 F-15s were downed by Kuwait friendly fire. All crew survived, at least one injured. A sign, to me, of poor preparation and coordination, perhaps because of a rushed war.

I don’t give a damn what happens to the leaders of the Iran, Israel, or, frankly, the US. The blood is on all their hands, especially the aggressors, Israel and the US. I’m speaking only of the victims, whoever they are and wherever they might be. Being human doesn’t mean excusing evil.

I care about them. I care about the victims in Iran and other Muslim countries. I care about the Palestinians in Gaza. I have friends in Israel, Jordan, Oman, the Iranian diaspora, and the US military. They are Christians, Muslims, Jews, Druze, atheists, and who knows? War is hell. Let’s be human.

Believe it or not, he may be too tall. Let’s ask Trump if he would order Hegseth to grant a waiver, like he did for Jared’s security clearance. I’d love to see him squirm.

Follow up question: Have you spoken to your son about setting a good example by volunteering in a civilian support role?

I’ve heard he is a genius and a master level chess player. Commission him as an infantry captain and let’s see what he’s got. /s/

60% (even 75%) support from one’s own party is a recipe for massive electoral defeat. If that’s true, and holds, he and his party are cooked.

There are no billionaires on death row.

Oligarchs, of course. But also, plutocrats, kleptocrats, petty tyrants, and malefactors of great wealth. Or keep it simple and avoid the Latin - rich assholes.

Not the first time he’s called him or his predecessor that. It’s Trump’s stupid little joke, implying that Canada is not a sovereign country, but will soon become part of the United States.

This isn’t just weaponizing the DOJ, it’s perverting it, turning it on its head.

You got that right. It’s been several decades, but the Eagles crowd once booed Santa Claus. My brother justified it by saying, “he was a really bad Santa Claus.”

I know Philly well. (Grew up across the river and have a couple of brothers there.) Minnesotans are tough, but polite. Philadelphians can be downright nasty when angered (sometimes even when not). ICE can expect a warm welcome. 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥

The same reason the necromancer animates dead bodies to populate his zombie army. Recruitment.

He cannot defend himself. So I guess it’s OK if 3 or 4 strong men confront him in a parking garage and have their way with him.

They can pass a bill cutting off funding. Then Trump defies them and continues writing checks. Then the courts can issue orders, which Trump also defies. He’s immune from criminal prosecution, so that leaves Impeachment. So they convict him. But what actually happens depends on the men with guns.

Once they are deployed by the governor, it becomes legally difficult for Trump to federalize them. He won’t bother. He will simply send in the military. Tell me that isn’t a recipe for civil war.

To

They weaponize Christianity or a version of it. I call them “Christianists,” the heirs of Torquemada and Cromwell, not Jesus

He thinks he can.

Perhaps this will be the test.

Only Congress can decide this, and somehow I can’t see them voting for a 50% increase in the military budget.

I’m sure it’s no more than 15-20%, but then again, he’s not taking a salary.

Put it up. Have a little ceremony, a quick one. Film it all. Make him take it down. Film that, too.

Extras in the great pageant in which they imagine themselves in leading roles. Troublesome extras, at that, and easily replaced by CGI.

May they choke on them, each and every one of them.

Try 60.
