Facts nerd. Currently living life in a constant state of concern and posting more often than I plan to. I seem to be growing more sarcastic by the day. Apologies for that.

To be fair, the West Bank isn't a good site for the next Trump Resort. Not sure he would care.

This is heartbreaking.

Imagine if Biden had said something like that, or any president prior. It would have been 25th amendment within minutes.

A weakened, sick public with no wealth doesn't have the means to protest or stand up for themselves.

We are getting attacked in multiple cities. That number will grow. The point is to cause more division and fear among anyone who still believes in democracy. It is important that we let this bring us all together as Americans who believe in the Constitution and not let the fear and hate overwhelm.

No. They have already displayed a willingness to give Trump things he wants in exchange for whatever they are getting from him.

I actually hope that is it. The other options are frightening.

It seems to me the question that no one is asking is why Trump wants them specifically there.

Our nation's federal employees are more than just numbers on a spreadsheet.

They make sure we have clean water.

They protect us from financial fraud.

They provide healthcare to our communities.

They make our government actually work for people.

Do not forget this.

I know Mike Johnson says there is nothing for the House to do but there is.

You see by law a budget was supposed to be in place by Sept 30th, but Rs haven’t passed one. The reason? There isn’t a GOP budget. They haven’t even started working on one. This is what the House should be doing FFS!

So, we are allowing a foreign nation to have a military base on US soil? That means that Qatar will have a military presence and a military force in the US. That is completely unacceptable.That is a major shift in the balance of power.

Doesn't that require some kind of congressional approval?

What does our military think of a Quatar military base on American soil or are they scared of Trump too? Home of the brave and land of the free? America needs a new tagline: home of the cucks and land of the cunts.

Maybe I'm missing something. Do other countries have military facilities inside the US? Or are we just now selling our bases to the highest bidder?

Breaking: MIT just became the first university to reject an agreement that would trade support for the Trump admin's higher education agenda in exchange for favorable treatment.

The first time I visited Portland I went to the restaurant that turned out to be the restaurant from the chicken sketch in Portlandia. I can confirm that this sign is 100% true.

They really seem to think that if they just fire everyone else, the public will be fine with making him king.

This is the way.
