He definitely should have pulled out of Ivana a few times.

Rubio is simply describing what's happening because he and Trump have removed the US from any position to influence such events. Trump's weakness is leaving the US isolated even from allies such as Israel.

And an ag industry that has more influence with Trump than Kennedy has.

Thanks, Jay. After getting fully promoted I realized I was writing for the wrong audience and turned to writing for and speaking to the public. I had to relearn how to write.

These a-holes haven't even gotten a detailed briefing on what's happening in the region, and they're ready to cheer Israel into a war that could get the US dragged into it.

Postman's "Amusing Ourselves to Death" had a huge impact on my development as a scholar.
Best wishes as you enter an exciting new stage in your life.

California to Trump, Vance, Kristi Noem, Pam Bondi, Kash Patel, and Stephen Miller:

The people of California will not bend the knee. We are smarter and tougher than Columbia U., ABC, Marc Zuckerberg, Paul Weiss, etc.

Florida is going to be so fucked. Same with Louisiana, Alabama, and Mississippi.
Southern red states? Come tornado and hurricane seasons you're on your own. Without federal disaster assistance, watch those home insurance policy prices skyrocket.

I grew up within walking distance of Watts during the 1965 riots. 34 dead, around 1000 injured, and about 4000 arrests. What's going on in LA is a protest with a few bad actors. We are light years from a riot.

And she is saying that out loud because this is Trump's declaration of war against all who didn't vote for him and don't support him now.

Fire the headline writer. President's don't have generals. Generals may serve under presidents but their oath is to the Constitution.

Yes. I was just confused by your final sentence. I'm proud of my senator for exposing the fascists for who they are.

Impeach Kristi Noem.

She seems very disappointed that LA was pretty quiet last night. They want to ramp up the violence, and if that doesn't happen, they'll lie about it so they can keep troops on the street and hold their bogus press conferences.

Marines in LA are bored out of their minds because there's nothing going on.

I had no idea that the FBI was part of DHS. Silly me, I thought they were part of DOJ and would not be involved in this nonsense at all. Perhaps the failure of the FBI to wrap up any major cases since Trump returned is do to the clowns running the FBI not understanding their mission.

Get ready to pay more for your fruits and vegetables. And thank Trump when that happens. Also, MAGA folk should feel free to come take the jobs in these fields.

Someone should have tossed him a copy of the Pocket Constitution that many members of Congress carry with them. "Read it, chump!"

I hold Sen. Cassidy equally responsible for this disaster. He could have shown some leadership and stopped Kennedy in his tracks, but failed to act in the interest of his constituents and all Americans.
Sheer cowardice stopped Sen. Cassidy.
