The "new" Palestinian state needs to be established to the North of Gaza. Easy to get to when the tide is low.😁💀🤣
Don't forget that the USA 'came to the rescue' of EUROPE twice in the 20th century at GREAT cost in blood AND $$; I hope Trump makes it CRYSTAL CLEAR that Ukraine is Europe's "baby" and America is NOT looking to spend any more 💰💰 and certainly NOT BLOOD. The EU, and UK need to SIGNIFICANTLY ramp up their defense spending and quit being 'greenies' (climate change) and WEF advocates.
Never give up THE 'goal' of "The Fundamental Transformation of The United States of America". Spoken like and by a 'true believer' in "Obamaism".
The STUPID NIEVETY of the US DOES and moron Blinken is STUNNING.😵💫💀
"National Security Sources"(?); is that the same as 'unnamed sources'? How stupid does the MSM/Security Intel Complex think we are? Where are the 50 'former Intel officers' ( do they still have a security clearence-$$)?.FAKE NEWS.👌🥸😵
Sen. John McCain warned us about Blinken. (See the U tube video) The last 4 years have proven him right.😵👍🤙
🤔 Hmmm. What corporate board did the now SecDef sit on? Asking for a Quaker friend.
"US Intel Agencies" = FAKE NEWS. Remember the '51 former' Intel 'hacks' that told us the Hunter lap top was 'Russian Disinformation'? I wanna see Wray's "I don't lie" certification before I believe anything from the corrupt Fed supposed law enforcement. 🤮
IMO Russians equate 'drone operators' with 'snipers'; not on Russia's list of "best buds".💀😵💫
Believe the CIA at your peril. Didn't a bunch (51🤔) of their former 'lackies' tell us that the Hunter lap top was "Russian disinformation"? Do you think there's lyin' going on in Langley? Say it ain't so. Look how 'spot on' the 'Intel agencies' were about 911.
Better Putin send his 'criminal conscripts' to the Ukraine front than to the US southern border.😎🤠💀😁🤣
Zelenski and his giant money laundromat that is Ukraine." Ever wonder why the Democrats fawn over him? With FTX defunct and SBF in the slammer, wonder how the cash is getting into the 'campaign coffers'? Sound like a PDB investigation is needed.🥸🤙🤖👽💀
"Further Action", "Comprehensive Immigration Reform", etc, et al ALL MEAN the same thing: AMNESTY and CITIZENSHIP (i.e. VOTING DEMOCRAT) for ALL illegals. Now, That's PROGRESSIVE.🌮🤮👎
Mohammad! "You have mail!!" Ka Boom💥 💀🤭
Lebanon: "You're got mail!!" 💥 👏🤣💀
What does Biden call "help"? More LGBTQ++ Agents; more female (non male, or non penis owning) Agents so we can have a more 'diverse' SS; skin color quotas? I'm so confused; I think I'll apply, but demand that I 'work from home'.💀😵💫
The oral contraceptive was/is a two edged sword. It created 'sexual liberation' but the unintended consequence of declining birth rates. Add that to the rise of the welfare state and you have fewer tax payers, but more tax money consumers. Will not end well.
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.
