“Transgender from everybody and windmills all over the place”

Trump: "If we didn't win this election. If we had these people that were running that were ruining our country, destroying our country with their open borders and men playing in women's sports and transgender from everybody and windmills all over the place ... I'm not sure we'd even have a country."

Just couldn’t find the time to weigh in on the clear publicity stunt while being tortured. Curious.

My friend Tommy was on the flotilla to Gaza & just got out of an Israeli prison.

He posted an update on his IG this morning and this comment is sending me.

Yeah buddy, I can think of *ONE* reason.

The government shutdown isn’t an excuse for Congress to remain silent as their own constituents are kidnapped by Israel in international waters, imprisoned, tortured, beaten, denied prescribed medication including insulin and provided inadequate food & water.

It’s cowardice.

In an Instagram post, veteran Greg Stoker, who was just released from Israeli captivity, said that members of the flotilla in captivity are being denied medication *including insulin.*

They never had a problem when The Who, Rolling Stones, Paul McCartney or U2 performed during the.....ah wait I get it now.

Even if Bad Bunny wasn't American, who gives a shit? Is the Super Bowl some federal holiday? Were people upset when Coldplay's Chris Martin showed up to sing with Bruno Mars and Beyonce? I mean, they were but only because he sounded like shit compared to them.

When you drag a woman by the hair, beat her and force her to kiss your flag, that’s how you tell the world you are the Good Guys

I have had a ton of bad luck with event presales and ticket draws, but actually got picked for the World Cup presale and got tickets today. Downside: you have to buy tickets without knowing who you'll be watching lol.

The Trump administration is claiming that the president alone, not Congress, can declare war on anyone he sees as an enemy.

That's terrifying.
