    Whether or not Maduro is a thug isn't the issue. We hosted a thug here in Alaska at the behest of Trump. Trump just pardoned a drug trafficking thug. Many would contend that our current felon...

    Another Democrat that I despise but seems to be making sense here:...

    Indeed. It really didn't take this attack to be seen as a corrupt country when a corrupt man is in control and supported by a corrupt political party. Recent events just made that corrupt mentality...

    I'm not following. What do you mean that we were bought by the highest

    One of the consequences of this action is that it gives Putin a way to annexe any country he feels like, Kim Jong Un a way to annexe South Korea and Xi Jinping a way to annexe Taiwan or any of the...

    Didn't Trump say that Rubio and Hegseth were going to be in charge of Venezuela for now? I think he also said that the Venezuelans would profit from the oil after the cost of whatever the new oil...

    Interesting you use the terms "foreign leader" and "kidnap". You also said this was an act of war (seems then it'd made more sense to drop a bomb on his head..) That tells us you consider Madero to...

    Help me understand--did the US military kidnap a foreign leader to benefit Venezuelans, or Americans, or petroleum companies, or Trump because he is going to collect the $50 million reward? Who...

    It looks like the people living under the nice warm collectivism of the Maduro regime would not agree with your assessment of the situation as there are worldwide celebrations taking place....

    That regime, that in addition to destroying Venezuela and it's history of humanitarian crimes, was also becoming buddies with China. If this is all it takes to get rid of them, and to teach others a...

    You make it sound like Marshalls arrived with a warrant and peacefully took Maduro and his wife into custody. Bombs were dropped, there was small arms fire, and 2 US personnel were injured. No word of...

    I usually can't stand this woman, but her words here make sense.
  14. 47

    Wow. That sounds bad. What specifically is the part if this that makes you "sick"? What we know right now is that a dictator has been removed from power. Thats it. Why the freaking

    This makes me sick. And I know the majority party in Congress will do nothing, while the minority will clutch their pearls and say tsk,

    47's rambling press briefing to announce the war returned to his delusion about mental institutions and insane asylum again. Apparently Venezuela stole American property on Venezuela soil. The...
  17. 47

    Its pretty early in this to tell what's going to happen. But, I don't see a war happening. As far as legality goes, I guess if you consider Madero to be a legitimate president, its pretty cut...

    This new war may well provide Trump's justification for postponing midterm elections here. Certainly Speaker Johnson will be eager to support Trump in whatever he wants. At least that's what history...

    I believe there is a saying that "Every President needs a war." Well it looks like 47 has got his, and in every way you would expect from him - illegal, no real reason for it except to make money and...

    This was interesting in the news today...

    I posted about this on December 31st but I think there is so much going on in America politically that interfering with history comes under the heading "Mehhh!" Just something else to add to the...

    It's weird that the POTUS didn't apparently give consent for the imaging because after the imaging he couldn't verbalize what type of test on which body part for what purpose. That confusion was...
  22. The Trump Thread

    Welp, it looks like the old guy requiring serial scans and cognitive tests to monitor his decline has killed Venezuelan civilians and kidnapped the country's president....

    January 6 Select Committee

    Where is the told you so part? He's talking about what he would do if he were a defense attorney and this was a trial. Obviously her free-wheeling conjecture would be ripped apart if he was in the...

    The Trump Thread

    Of course we should know the answers to those questions, because people have been alarmed over the delayed public disclosure of very serious conditions kept under wraps while that person was still in...
  25. This was interesting in the news today...

    Probably so. And probably like most people doesn't have a reason to care about the differences. I do feel like he knows his wife isn't the president. So, we're a little better off than the...
