Russia sure hit a home run when they invested in trump thirty years ago. Be patient with your investments. Most will have great long term rewards. Some will give you total control of the president of the United States!

This might sound like a dig or hyperbole. But not enough mention of this. It says quite explicitly in 2.11 Exec Order that end-state level after all cuts is permanent level of govt to equal what it is during a full government shut down. Seems like worth highlighting this?

Conan: You know, Anora is having a good night. That's great news. Two wins already. I guess Americans are excited to see somebody finally stand up to a powerful Russian.

This is true for so many subjects: No. of immigrants, financial support they receive, or the state of the economy, for instance. Entire elections are decided by this. Just look at the USA. Our gut feeling (influenced by our preconceived ideas) is frequently factually mistaken.

Stephen Miller's legal group alleged in 2023 that NASCAR participated in the “ongoing, deliberate, and illegal discrimination against white, male Americans.” Now, similar complaints will be a priority at the gov't agency for combatting employment discrimination. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Democrats should boycott the State of the Union. Democrats keep calling this man a unique and dangerous threat, but never ACT like it. For once, Democrats' actions should match their words. My latest in @thenation.com www.thenation.com/article/poli...

L - Eric Trump tells people to “buy the dips” on crypto. R - A couple days later, Trump makes his crypto announcement. How much time did the media spend on Hunter Biden? I read more articles about Biden’s shoes than this blatant and obvious corruption.

Zelensky dresses the way he does to show solidarity with the soldiers fighting on his country’s frontline. Trump dresses the way he does because he is a classless asshole. Any questions?

Why are American taxpayers going to bail out scam artists losing money in the crypto markets? We are going to borrow more money to pump it into the crypto market to enrich scammers and leeches who produce nothing of value for humanity?

I always say, "don't worry, your English is better than my (fill in native language of that person)..." Monolingual Americans (like me, tho I do know SOME Spanish & French) are in NO position to throw stones at multi-lingual world citizens!

Why did Trump, following his first visit to Russia, during the Cold War(!), return to the US and spend $130k on full page ads attacking NATO? Does anyone have an explanation which does not involve Donald being a Russian stooge/spy?

Conversely, Trump is lucky Zelensky didn't punch his fat ass off his chair! I'm not sure I'd be that restrained...which is one of many reasons I'm not a political leader. 😉
