BREAKING: Senate Republicans blocked my War Powers Resolution that would have ended Trump's unnecessary, unjustified war against Iran.
These cowards have had four chances to stop this chaos in the Middle East.
And they put Trump's ego before America.
Every damn time.
Are they in the room with you now Mr. President?
Circling back to the triggering event for this conversation, this mania for monumental architecture. The Imperial Roman hangover that we still haven't gotten over even after a 1000 years, shows up in men like Trump looking for immortality? Dare we call it "Empire Envy"?
Yes, he really went all out with that book. I read it when I was stationed in West Germany. At the time I think it may have been banned there, but that could be a faulty memory. I still have it somewhere in the piles of books occupying my house.
You, as a master of alternative history must have considered a timeline where Adolph pursued a career as a fine artist. His hatred of "decadent art" could provide fodder for interesting scenes.
A year ago I posted that these jokers were cribbing from Speer's plans for Germania. They don't have an original thought in their heads.
In my experience if you check inside the car after someone has been decompressing, you will often find small bottles of vodka (mostly empty) in the compartments or under the seats. Or other substances. The results may vary depending on the person and how bad their day went.
There is no cease fire! Staggering how many news outlets continue to accept the word of con-men, lying liars, grifters, and ungainly weirdos.
Cashing in on market manipulation has played out for now, so Trump wants to walk away and declare victory. If he can't grift off something he gets bored.
The program has been preempted, with a repeat of Taco Festival!

“It’s difficult to cover him in a way that conveys how unhinged he is. Journalists are trained to be like, ‘OK, what did he say that was newsworthy?’ So you convey that to your audience. But in reality, when you actually watch, you see he's full of hatred, lying constantly, and very incoherent.”
Moonshot Monday.
Happy First Contact Day!
History requires context. You can look at almost any time in history and find that a lot of people were just going about their daily lives, because that's what we do even if we are surrounded by crime, poverty, social upheaval and dozen other things. It doesn't mean things were better then.
Going full Veruca Salt there, just shy of throwing himself down in the supermarket aisle and screaming blue murder until nanny buys him chocolate ice cream.
Never heard of him. Another stupid distraction.
"All we say to America is, 'Be true to what you said on paper.'"
These words — spoken by MLK Jr. shortly before he was killed on this day in 1968 — ring just as true now.
Let's honor his legacy by continuing the fight for social and economic justice.
14th Amendment (1868):
“All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.”
Seems pretty clear to me.
Now he's hedging with "two to three weeks". Counting on the news cycle amnesia effect that almost everyone has moved on to something else in that time and won't recall what he said. Rinse and repeat.
I saw him play in the 2003 US Open at Olympia Fields, and it was a joy to see how good he was. I hope he can find the help he needs.
An attack, on a active airbase, in CONUS? Are they just shrugging it off as prank?
This bunch revels in being know nothings. Facts don't matter and planning is for nerds.

Stocks down, gas and food up, national debt now $39 trillion…
… and Trump is good on the economy?
No one voted for this
They operate under the delusion that they can just force regime change and get out. Venezuela is fodder for that mindset. Trump sees everything as transactional, that he can bully everyone into accepting his terms. Watch what happens when he goes up against someone who won't yield or sell out.
