@Justin_O_Leary @EileenforCO Thank you for the history lesson. But which one of those countries mentioned was run by the United States after their leader was removed?

Before being medically retired, I served almost a decade as a member of a unit that falls under the U.S. Army Special Operations Command & at times the U.S. Joint Special Operations Command. I know the risks involved high risk military operations; I have never been part of an op where the goal didn’t outweigh the risk. Yesterday’s actions were not unprecedented.
Not an unprecedented action by a U.S. President ma’am:

@delayghana They are legends of the Gen X and younger Boomer era. They have their own table. But you need to seat Has and that should have been the question. I love Kendrick's music and I am older Gen X. He is a new era so he is seated at a new table for end of Gen X, Mills and Gen Z.

@CattardSlim The blood is on Trump’s hands, not Biden’s. If he hasn’t brought the national guard into American cities to do a job they’re not qualified for and not trained for this tragedy wouldn’t have happened

@RossKneeDeep I try not to think of her but when I do see her I either see her in that jacket that said "I don't care do you" or her laying ass up buck naked on a white bearskin rug. Real classy.

@smalls2672 $40b went to Argentina. None for American farmers.....but Argentina😕

You know, it's weird. Trump was nearly shitting his pants saying the U.S. Will have problems if SCOTUS rules trump's tariff actions are illegal (which they are) and the government has to pay that money back. But why would their be problems. For starters, billions injected back into the economy would be a good thing. Especially for the holidays. More importantly however, the government has been collecting that money. It hasn't been allocated for anything. Meaning it should essentially be sitting in a bank account and should be able to be paid back to our importers. Unless he's worried because somehow the money isnt there anymore?
Did the Trump administration illegally issue sweeping tariffs and somehow steal the money collected?

@Ravious101 Ask a wounded warrior, a blind or deaf person or a person with medical or anxiety issues if their dog is "just a dog". Those dogs are their lifelines and saves lives. He wouldn't even help you build their bunk beds😕

From a post
boyfriend dropped the ultimatum on me last night while I was feeding the dogs: "It's either me or them. I can't do this anymore." I just stood there holding Shadow's food bowl, watching my three rescues waiting patiently for dinner, and felt my heart crack in half.
"They're just dogs," he said. "You care more about them than you do about us." Maybe he's right - I did spend three weekends building custom bunk beds for them (took me forever and more trips to Home Depot than I care to admit). I did convert our spare room into their space. And yes, I do plan my entire schedule around their feeding times and anxiety medications.
But here's what he doesn't understand: Bruno was found in a dumpster with cigarette burns. Bella spent two years chained outside in all weather until her paws were permanently damaged. Shadow still won't let men near him after whatever hell he went through. I promised each of them they'd never be abandoned again.
My sister thinks I'm insane. "You're choosing dogs over a relationship? You'll die alone surrounded by animals." Even my mom suggested I rehome them. Everyone acts like I'm throwing my life away, but when I went through my divorce, when I couldn't get out of bed from depression, these three were the only reason I kept going.
I know what I should do. I know what makes logical sense. But how do I look at Shadow hiding under his special blanket and tell him that after everything, he's still not worth keeping? How is that not the ultimate betrayal?

@CohenForIL09 Where in the hell in the United States are we at ALMOST $2 a gallon of gasoline? When was the last time he bought gas? Has he ever bought gas and who in the hell is lying to him about the gas prices? What the f year is he in?
