@MikeDav81049244 @archer_rs You're missing the bigger picture. Hes not limiting to one President. Just because Trump will be out in 3 years doesnt mean the next President, and id not that one, then the one after, wont be as bad as Trump. His point is the US is no longer unreliable. It cant be depended on.

Astonishing statement from General Carsten Breuer, chief of the German defence staff. "Germany no longer regards the USA as a reliable defence partner. We are assuming conflict with Russia in the next few years is inevitable, we are re-arming.

@PatrickStrother @TerryMoran Adding your point to his would provide a more full explanation. Until a way can be found to cut out Citizens United (and, Id argue, stock trading), the power of money will continue to corrupt absolutely.

@jackguestfilm @DachshundColin @NuWurldHoarder So, unless a person has a political science degree, or is an actual politician, they should not speak up on any political opinion? Im absolutely certain the American founders would view you as their enemy.

I feel like bands, actors and celebrities talking about politics is really cruel. It’s like asking kindergarten children their views on the Middle East. Someone needs to remind them their political knowledge isn’t what made them successful so they don’t make such fools of themselves.

@nohassleprice @NickKristof @HassanShibly "Caused"?? Illegal immigrants have been coming into the country for a hundred years, under every administration. Republican-owned businesses have benefited as much as anybody. Careful how wide you throw your net of hate. Youll have fewer and few friends.

US immigration officials picked up a blind Rohingya refugee last week in Buffalo, NY. Then, realizing they had no basis to deport him, they released him five miles from his home. He needed a walking stick and died trying to make his way back to his house: investigativepost.org/2026/02/25/bli…

@le76455 @Rakionrql @James_West_PhD That was always going to happen. The seeds of it were wrought in the nature of Capitalism which strives for continual profit, excluding nothing from consideration, including offshoring for cheaper labor costs, or cutting employees for management bonuses.

@Rakionrql @James_West_PhD U.S. should never have sold out to China in the first place - there were plenty of protests trying to stop them but in the days before social media they simply rammed the trade policies through. The authors of those policies committed figurative, if not literal, sedition.

Gorsuch is a G*d-d*mned genius: "For those who think it important for the Nation to impose more tariffs, I understand that today’s decision will be disappointing. All I can offer them is that most major decisions affecting the rights and responsibilities of the American people (including the duty to pay taxes and tariffs) are funneled through the legislative process for a reason. Yes, legislating can be hard and take time. And, yes, it can be tempting to bypass Congress when some pressing problem arises. But the deliberative nature of the legislative process was the whole point of its design. Through that process, the Nation can tap the combined wisdom of the people’s elected representatives, not just that of one faction or man. There, deliberation tempers impulse, and compromise hammers disagreements into workable solutions. And because laws must earn such broad support to survive the legislative process, they tend to endure, allowing ordinary people to plan their lives in ways they cannot when the rules shift from day to day. In all, the legislative process helps ensure each of us has a stake in the laws that govern us and in the Nation’s future. For some today, the weight of those virtues is apparent. For others, it may not seem so obvious. But if history is any guide, the tables will turn and the day will come when those disappointed by today’s result will appreciate the legislative process for the bulwark of liberty it is."

@Rakionrql @stet_dot_net @James_West_PhD That has to do with fewer units sold, because higher prices mean demand goes down. Tariffs are a tax on the importers, who transfer the extra cost onto the consumer. Make the tariffs high enough and true; customers wont buy.

Fascinating details here on Noem/Lewandowski from this must-read story in WSJ: -- "Lewandowski and Noem, who are both married, have publicly denied the reports of the affair, but people said they do little to hide their relationship inside the department." -- "In one incident, Lewandowski fired a U.S. Coast Guard pilot after Noem’s blanket was left behind on a plane, according to people familiar with the incident." -- But "they eventually reinstated the pilot because no one else was available to fly them home." -- Noem routinely berated staff if she saw Homan on TV and kept track of both their appearances to make sure she was on TV more than him, according to people familiar with the matter wsj.com/politics/polic…

@fuller_sean @nbcsnl The point of the show is humor; wherever its found. Sometimes some of those sources include politics. When politics, humor has been found to shine a light on the absurdities in it. Clowning a political position can undermine its legitimacy.

@nbcsnl I appreciate your point of view and obviously as you can tell by the results of statewide elections for the past year, most Americans agree with it. But none of this is entertaining nor funny. Isn’t that the point of your show

@Santi811 @RyGuyOnTheGo @EvanSowards Having a concealed permit to carry and never unholstering it, even while being beaten, and yet still being shot dead is generally considered murder. Murder, whether by a private citizen or someone working for the government is illegal. I guess 2A means nothing now?

The amount of good that could be done right now simply by MAGA supporters to take this absolute layup and be like “holy shit THAT is not okay” And they literally won’t. Without a single doubt in my mind they’ll all defend it like mindless lemmings

Trump: "I should've gotten the Nobel Prize for each war, but I don't say that. I saved millions and millions of people. And don't let anybody tell you that Norway doesn't control the shots, ok? It's in Norway. Norway control the shots. It's a joke. They lost such prestige. That's why I have such respect for Maria doing what she did. She said, 'I don't deserve the Nobel Prize. He does.'"

@RicciGeri @davidfrum NATO is an organization of agreements. There are no dues/fees to be a member. What you're thinking about is an agreement to dedicate a certain % of GDP to military spending. And those "elitists" you speak of? They work more for citizens needs than ours legislators do in the US.

David... allies are not friends... European Leaders are haughty elitists who are replacing their indigenous Caucasians in massive numbers. They balk at NATO DUES... some wouldn't even pay the 2% of their GDP to NATO. Even Canada was paying 0.69 0.99 and shamefully agreed to 2.00 %. Trump finally got the Euro Socialists to up their NATO contributions because US Taxpayes are burdened with paying majority. Old Europe is dying... Western Civ. is being destroyed. You are a partisan hack. @POTUS

@Pro__Trading @KobeissiLetter He can and will say whatever he can to win votes, but none of that happens by him saying it. He has no control over any of it. Most of that takes an act of Congress and Republicans wont do it because big business would suffer.

@Kyle_Katarn586 @thescottbarber 1. 70% of those detained by ICE have never committed a crime. 2. The gal murdered yesterday was an American citizen living in the area, trying to leave. 3. Liberals dont hate the law. We just think officers should follow it too.

Department of War 🇺🇸
Department of War 🇺🇸@DeptofWar·
OFFICIAL STATEMENT: The Department of War has received serious allegations of misconduct against Captain Mark Kelly, USN (Ret.). In accordance with the Uniform Code of Military Justice, 10 U.S.C. § 688, and other applicable regulations, a thorough review of these allegations has been initiated to determine further actions, which may include recall to active duty for court-martial proceedings or administrative measures. This matter will be handled in compliance with military law, ensuring due process and impartiality. Further official comments will be limited, to preserve the integrity of the proceedings. The Department of War reminds all individuals that military retirees remain subject to the UCMJ for applicable offenses, and federal laws such as 18 U.S.C. § 2387 prohibit actions intended to interfere with the loyalty, morale, or good order and discipline of the armed forces. Any violations will be addressed through appropriate legal channels. All servicemembers are reminded that they have a legal obligation under the UCMJ to obey lawful orders and that orders are presumed to be lawful. A servicemember’s personal philosophy does not justify or excuse the disobedience of an otherwise lawful order.
