I don’t disagree. Just seeing a lot of posts about this Qatari agreement getting a little carried away(not yours).

Hegseth sucks. The Qataris suck. But we aren’t giving Qatar an airbase in Idaho. It’s building dorms etc. at an existing base to train them on F-15s we sold them, just like Singapore already has there. Common arrangement we have with lots of countries. This one was already being planned under Biden.

"None of what Trump has done since retaking office should come as a shock... It’s a shame that many of the content creators who helped put him back in office only seem to be realizing it now."

The Trump administration is offering $60K in student loan forgiveness as a recruitment tool for ICE, which just proves fighting Biden on student loan relief was never about the loans or “paying your own debt.” It was about who was offering it and who it would’ve helped.

If the Judge in Comey’s case rules on the anticipated motion that Halligan was unlawfully appointed, would that apply in this case as well?

I remember Senator Manchin even helping the Republicans pull a fast one a few years back. Promise a bunch of things if Dem’s play along, then renege on those deals and give the Dem’s the finger.

When you’ve spent a decade or more not operating in good faith, your word means jack shit.

Following along on some of the play-by-play with today’s Court proceedings, and it’s frightening how many Federal Judges don’t seem to have an issue with it.

The thing about not operating in good faith for 15+ years is that your word means absolutely nothing.

Normal people would probably refer to the imagery of rubber-necking an accident on the highway, but Dinesh has “farmers fucking sheep” on the brain for some reason.
