Note to all you're racist, anti- immigrant HATERS out there: VOTE DEMOCRAT on Nov 5th.😁🫣🤣
9-11, to the post Y2K generation, should be like Pearl Harbor was/is to 'the Greatest Generation'. Sadly, the leftist Teacher Unions have succeeded in convincing post Y2Kers that America 'is evil, and deserved it'.
CIA and MI6; RUSSIA, RUSSIA, RUSSIA 2.0🤙👎😡 OP ED; official LIES. these people have NO credibility. Believe them @ your peril.
DOJ-- Department Of Joke(strs). Probably, up there with DOS, in contention as the most leftwing, corrupt of the 3-letter Federal Agencies. DOJ and IRS can literally bankrupt you for no or a purely political reason.
Again, I'd like the so called 'opposition leader(s)' in Israel to speak up/out and explain what/how a "cease fire" would 'free' the remaining hostages; the last 6 were murdered as their rescuers closed in. When the next 9-11 event happens HERE, make sure WE demand a 'cease fire'. Right, Kamala?
OK; how about these "Wizards of Smart" who are "blaming" BEBE, stand up and tell us how to do it. These folks are either naive, emotional wrecks, or totally irrational, because I can bet, they'll demand the Israeli government agree to ANY demand to bring 'home' the hostages. I'll let YOU ponder as to what ANY demand might be.😵💫💀
Good. All illegals 'va a Denver; mucho COSA gratis'. 🤠👌
Not much sympathy for leftist, anti-American, anti-free speech, defunding platform GOOGLE. Love it when tyrants and tyrannical cronies 'eat their own'; 'bon appetit '.☠️😵💫
N. Korean weapons to Russia-BAD. U S and NATO weapons to Ukraine-Good? The EU is determined to repeat the carnage of 1916-1918 and from 1939-1945. Who's ready to be 'sacrificed' on the alter of Democracy for Ukraine? Viet Nam, Desert 1, Iraq, and Afghanistan--- all predicated on LIES.
Are we to believe that the comedian is now an expert on the art of modern warfare and tactics?
Venezuelan elections-- blue print for what the DEMOCRATS wanna do here. That's DEMOCRACY!! 💀According to Peliosi, Obama, Hillary, et al. 🤖👾👽
Blinken and his crew are complete and utter morons; DEI and low IQ individuals are at the highest level of YOUR (we, the People) government. Keep electing Democrats!! The 'freek show in ChIraq' says it all.
The families of the 'remaining hostages' are irrational. What is it that they expect/want the government to do? How many Israeli soldiers do they want to be sacrificed to 'rescue' the hostages? What's to keep Hamas from executing them B 4 rescue? Lotta bitchin' an moaning, but no rational options.
Stupid. How do you 'negotiate' with someone when they don't join the discussion? The families that blame Bibi are not honest. If Hamas had not attacked, no one would be hostage. The solution is to invade the tunnels; kill every Hamas fighter. Only then will it end.
Re: Brazil; good 'go by' for the Democrat Party here. Plenty of 'Democracy protecting' leftist judges to side against the 1st Amendment rights of citizens. For you dolts who can't see the pattern: it's government tells you EVERYTHING you can and can't do. Remember "Hope and Change"? Well this is what it looks like.😵💫🥸
How stupid. Let's negotiate, BUT the other antagonist, and PERPETRATOR are not in attendance. Negotiate with yourself. I would say we all 'agreed' Hamas is evil and ask the UN (🤣) send troops to finish the destruction of Hamas. 👍😵💫 Lemme know how that works out.👻👾💀
Monkey Pox; CDC failure; all according to plan. The "PROGRESSIVE" movement will kill you, if they can, thru the vigorous application of 'Diversity' and racial incompetence. Results mean NOTHING; skin color is everything.😵💫👾
Thanks for everything you do
Maduro took a page outta the Democrat election handbook. Wait for the Democrats to take PAGES out of Maduro's POST ELECTION handbook after this November. Remember, 'early voting' starts in a week or so.😵💫👍
Indicted 2 months ago, and unsealed today! How convenient. See, DOJ's on it; we're not the corrupt three letter government agency you thot we were/are. 😉👏👻
