Kamala was right. And it only took him less than 30 days to roll over for Putin.

Is anyone else thinking that this taking down pf the Kennedy name - first the Kennedy Center and now the JFK Library - some sort of Putin’s Revenge because of that whole Bay of Pigs malarkey? I mean, remember when Melania ripped out Jackie’s Rose Garden? What gives? www.cbsnews.com/boston/news/...
