So what do we have? An oligarchy mashed with a kakistocracy littered with facist overtones and gushing Christian nationalism reeking of autocratic despotism sleeping with authoritarianism lead by a malignant narcissistic sociopath. Quite the accomplishment America.

I’m not seeing a downside.

He's a planet Earth menace.
If this is true, every halfway decent foreign intelligence service on the planet already has the receipts ….

Imbecile.
The draft dodging idiot posted a pic of this West Point plaque. It contains these words:

“Our American Code of Military Obedience requires that, should orders and the law ever conflict, our officers must obey the law.”

That is precisely what Senator Mark Kelly told officers to do. #NoSedition

What a dope!
The type of things that happen when a foolish reality TV actor appoints a petty, drunk talk show chatterbox to run our military:

He is.
Someone very close to Putin once explained to me that Putin thinks that all Westerners can be bought. We have no values; only a price. Dmitriev's prominent role in drafting the latest "peace plan" underscores that Putin assessment. I hope Putin is wrong. I fear for some, he might be right.

Should have done it from the get go.
Garcia: The oversight committee and Democrats launched our official oversight immigration enforcement dashboard. The dashboard that allows our committee to investigate and document and archive for the public record, possible misconducts by federal agents, ICE, and DHS.

Talk about out of touch. If there is one thing that creep is not it's charismatic. He's more of the cringimatic variety.

Not only appease, but are on his payroll.
📌They appease Vladimir Putin and come after Mark Kelly.

Traitors. All of ‘em.

We can do away with it without a new Supreme Court. Nor do we need a constitutional amendment. There’s a far simpler way to get rid of Citizens United. Let me explain. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/how-to-get-rid-of-citizens-united

And in 3 2 1 it's gone.
This plaque is posted at West Point. Alcoholic TV talk show chatterbox Pete Hegseth wants to court-martial Arizona Senator Mark Kelly for repeating what is written on it.

Or what?
The U.S. is reportedly no longer pressuring Zelensky to sign the peace plan by Thursday, November 27. Deadlines may now be more flexible, according to Secretary of State Marco Rubio.

Here we go.
Really looks like the United States is about to launch a regime change war against Venezuela with:

-No authorization from Congress
-No allies or international support
-No plan for a post-Maduro Venezuela
-No preparation for any sort of stabilization or containment of the fallout
