This is what's called a "twofer". First, we can justify kicking this Somali out of the country, and secondly we can justify stopping all funding of the UN and kick the whole corrupt bag of trash out of the country as well.

And as bad as Minnesota, Ohio, and Washington state appear, it's clear that Illinois and California will be 10x worse.

Won't happen so long as Republicans and Democrats remain in office.

You don't get $6 million dollars in donations and not know every single aspect about your donor. It's your political life-blood.

In this case, Democrats have created their own self-sustaining slush fund, just like USAID.

Shawn Ryan just had Transportation Secretary Duffy on, and he said Pete Buttigieg got $2 TRILLION from Congress and no one knows what happened to it...

It's understandable.

I mean, mid-terms are coming up, and the GOP need to do their part to maintain the two-party duopoly system which permits the governing class to fleece the taxpaying minority for their own enrichment without fear of justice or accountability.

The US invaded Venezuela and captured Maduro and his wife.

I am not a fan of invading other countries and capturing their leadership for "national security reasons".

Why can't China do the same in Taiwan, then? It's certainly in their national security interests.

And here's another example of a brutal dictator being removed and leaving a power vacuum. I hope it will not give further rise to local warlord power struggles.

Along with "not passing Federal budgets which massively increase the deficit," this seems like one of those things which I specifically voted against when I, uncharacteristically, cast an all-Republican ballot back in Nov 2024.


But, hey, at least we're banning paper straws, right?

It's neat how we just decide to "run" another country and start distributing their resources as we see fit. Who could possibly mind?

Meanwhile, Iran is experiencing 70% inflation, recently sparking widespread demonstrations against the government. The government is responding with brutal crackdowns and limiting internet access.
