Quid Pro Qatar Quo

Ron Filipkowski @ronfilipkowski.bsky.social · 17h

The Trump administration is REALLY allowing Qatar to build an air base in the US after they did a $5.5 billion golf resort deal with Trump and gave him a jet.

MAGA can take their ‘America First’ flags and wipe their asses with them. He is Trump First, and you are suckers.

Donald Trump is not a king — and his administration is not above the law.

Today, the court confirmed what we all know: there is no credible evidence of a rebellion in the state of Illinois.

And no place for the National Guard in the streets of American cities like Chicago.

Other cities can't compete with Portland but most Americans can afford a tutu and a clown nose. Better yet how many Santa Claus costumes are there in basements and attics all over the country? Time to break em out and dance.

AOC mocked Stephen Miller's height, and Fox News primetime lineup spent the whole night defending Miller's manhood. It got them completely off message on the government shutdown. We're right not to fear these losers.

No, they don't have "all" the power. The have most of it, but AOC shows how pushback diminishes their power. They are fragile snowflakes who HATE being mocked.
