basically how it goes with almost every issue, be it education, healthcare, infrastructure, immigration, or whatever else, we will stay as fucked as we are now.

As for me, I detest the MAGA mindset. But I hold everyone else to higher standard, and MAGA behaviors from the other side is

you want about US foreign policy, but this is why this happened. Sadly, these days, a huge majority of social media users don’t like this outcome, with about 50% wishing it went one way and the other 50% wishing it went the other.

It doesn’t. And until we all understand that this is

Instead, It‘s a systemic issue caused by over two decades of US foreign policy. And none of it is really new or unique - America likes its forever wars, Local CIA assets have been evacuated in given asylum in the US by probably every president. For the 3rd time, you can have whatever opinion

Biden pulled out, and allowed Lakanwal into the country. Trump gave Lakanwal asylum and didn’t send Beckstrom home like he should have. 4 administrations over almost 25 years contributed to this.

So no, everyone. It’s not a “Trump” issue. Nor is it a “Biden” issue.

You ever hear of the butterfly effect?

Again, you can agree or disagree with US policy in the Middle East all you want, but from my count, at least 4 administrations - Bush II, Obama, Biden and Trump had a hand in this. Bush II went into Afghanistan, Obama stayed, even after we got Bin Laden

- In November 2025, a US judge deemed the deployment of the National Guard in DC as unlawful. The administration defies the court order and keeps troops deployed.
- On November 26th, Lakanwal shoots Beckstrom on the streets of DC. She succumbs to her injuries the next day.

- We finally pull out of Afghanistan in 2021. Likely a compromised target of the Taliban, Lakanwal flees to the US.
- In early 2025, Lakanwal is granted asylum by the the US gov’t
- In August 2025, the administration orders National Guard troops to Washington DC

- Despite Bin Laden being killed in 2011, we still manage to keep fucking around in Afghanistan for another 10 years, until 2021. At some point the CIA hires Rahmanullah Lakanwal, (Sarah’s killer) as a CIA local asset.

- 2003 Gulf War II happens in Iraq, with a side hustle in Afghanistan, ostensibly to take out Osama Bin Laden and WMD. No WMD are found in Iraq and we don’t get Bin Laden until 2011…In Pakistan via a clean and easy SpecOp. However, Halliburton makes a fucking killing.

- Between 1948 and 1989, the amount of fuckery between wars and hijackings and other unsavory shit was off the charts.
- In 1990 Bush I decided to up the ante and invade Iraq, which I guess we assumed was to take out Saddam Hussein. Only he didn’t.
- 2001 September 11 happens

That is usually missed. This murder is one of them, and it’s a fucking doozy. A brief history lesson:

- Israel was established in 1948, which whether you agree with this policy or disagree, it has objectively led to decades of destabilization in the region. 3/

First off, let me remind everyone that I think that Donald Trump is a turd. And his administration, though a complete fucking joke, is one of the most damaging things to ever happen to our country. But even then, there is a subtlety to most of the things that are happening 2/

Trumpism, like any drug, requires more and more each time to maintain the high. Eventually, you can’t take enough anymore and you hit a wall. Mark Kelly seems like that wall. This will be better for Mark than Trump, for sure.

Problem is, you ask Liz about healthcare, an industry in which she receives tons of $$$, you get a different answer. My preference is that regulation happen sans grandstanding.
