tag yourself I'm "biter of his foe"

On tiny dog figurines found buried under a palace in Nineveh, Iraq are inscriptions that seem to be names.

The international community is booing the US national anthem, the vast majority of fentanyl comes in via US citizens, and the Biden administration secured the same deal of 10,000 border troops in 2021 without plunging the country (and markets) into chaos. But sure, great work 👍
