So, we're now the boss of Venezuela eh? Did a bang up job "running" Afghanistan and Iraq, did we not? And there's Gaza. Couldn't be better eh wot? Always good to have another country ready to run, in case you can't govern your own.
"Thanks to our servile Supreme Court, we can prosecute foreign heads of state but not our own head of state for their official actions."
Excellent observation, but I don't think that the six Republican politicians who pose as justices are servile. They do what they do, which is to ignore the Constitution and federal laws, for themselves, not because they're catering to the murderous toddler. Wanting to help him is not the same as being servile to him.
I suspect the Opus Dei wing of the Supreme Court is indeed servile, obedient to the oligarchs (aka the big tippers) who issue instructions from the Heritage Foundation, the Federalist Society, and the like. Trump seems to think he is the one in charge. HA! He's just the idiot front man who, conveniently for the wealthy right wing extremists, also happens to be a psychopath.
He did do quite a bit of running on about it but it sounded to me like the way he blathers when he hasn't the least bit of an idea of what something is. Like the Constitution: "It's a document" or any verse in the Bible whatsoever.
Do I have this right? The “Commander in Chief” has constitutional authority to blow up small boats on the high seas without congressional authorization because the boats do not pose a threat to U.S. forces firing on them. In contrast, he has constitutional authority to attack targets in a sovereign country without congressional authorization because there is some danger that U.S. forces may come under (counter) attack. The concept of self defense has been sharpied.
I know! I thought that too - how were the armed forces under threat except that they sat around firing on Venezuelan (and other local) fishermen and island hoppers and someone might forcefully object, or that they invaded the capitol and the Venezuelan military might defend themselves? I does sound very much like Russia having to invade Ukraine because they felt threatened by Ukraine sitting there minding their own business. According to Bondi, part of the charges against Maduro was for having machineguns and other weapons (she did use no space there) and for intending to use them against the US. I do wonder how our famously pro-gun laws somehow translate into leaders of other countries not being allowed to have weaponry, and how we determine intent. I expect we will find out soon. Hopefully Joyce Vance will explain it all.
Rarely, and then only with a screwed up tissue. I've spent a life responsible for vulnerable people. So, your covid is the world's second worst sport winner next to Lala Mustafa Pasha?
While we can't bring our own president to trial, the precedent we set by bringing another country's president to trial might open the way for other countries to bring our president to trial in their court systems. For instance, Putin has not dared to leave Russia (except to China and Alaska and... Hungary?) in years due to charges brought in the world court. It seems unlikely anyone else will prove so helpful, but it's a suggestion.
Well, you are a left hemisphere guy after all. They say that bile is a trigger for respiratory issues and you have been generating that in spades for good reason. Get well soon.
Pick one (per hour).
We blew up Caracas and kidnapped the Maduros because:
(1) Narco-trafficking
(2) An indictment arrest required the CIA, Delta Force and 150 aircraft
(3) Oil reserves
(4) We wanted to
(5) Demento needed another country to run into the ground
(6) His manhood is small
(6a) Hegseth thought it was Yemen
(7) Another hopeless effort to distract from the Epstein files
All of the above.
7) Distraction: ain’t no Epstein Files — ain’t no Epstein Files — ain’t no Epstein Files — lookie over here, lookie over there —ain’t no Epstein Files
We've now established the precedent that it's OK to invade a country and remove its President and First Lady. I hope Canada is listening.
I hope Canada takes action.
They're too busy rearming and building troop strength.
So, we're now the boss of Venezuela eh? Did a bang up job "running" Afghanistan and Iraq, did we not? And there's Gaza. Couldn't be better eh wot? Always good to have another country ready to run, in case you can't govern your own.
As soon as the Southern District of NY sentences Maduro, Trump will hasten to pardon him....
You beat me to it. However, whether Il Douche grants the pardon and how quickly he grants it depends on the size of Maduro's bribe.
Congratulations, Gene. You’re pregnant!

I don’t understand the polling question. Do people who answer “Never” pick their noses only if someone is looking?
Darn it. Now I have to go back and look at the wording again.

And now he's renaming the Monroe Doctrine after himself!
I hadn't seen that. What is it, the Donroe Doctrine? 🤯
No, the Donroe Moctrine!
Actually yes.
It's the Monroe Doctrine rewritten by AI programmed according to the mindset of John Gotti.
He did do quite a bit of running on about it but it sounded to me like the way he blathers when he hasn't the least bit of an idea of what something is. Like the Constitution: "It's a document" or any verse in the Bible whatsoever.
Now try two more tests, one with a left nostril swab and one with a right nostril swab. Curious to know the results!

Consider aspirating with saline fluid. It’s soothing. So is Flonase, a nasal steroid.
Just don't get your Flonase and your Flomax mixed up! I don't even want to think about what that would do!
We trust that Rachel and the animals have fled for safer territories and climes!

Like Russia but stupider
Wishing you a speedy recovery.
As for Trump: Epstein, Epstein, Epstein
