According to the chronicler Herodotus, around 550 BC the Lydian king Croesus (as in " as rich as") consulted the Oracle at Delphi as to whether he should invade the Persian Empire. That visionary told Croesus if he attacked Persia "a great empire" would be destroyed. Croesus, unbelievably wealthy and full of himself, took that as a go-ahead signal, attacked Persia, and in the end became the last king of Lydia.

Trump's already lost Trump's War.
Amazing, isn't it?
A 34-times convicted felon who went bankrupt six times and failed at running casinos effed up.
The man's life is a gigantic effup and he's incredibly lucky he had his old man's dough to mess with.
How're things going, now that he's messing with yours?

Plenty of people don't want it and plenty of people could stop it.

This is the swamp with feeding trough that MAGAts voted for, Republicans maintain, and vested interests sustain.
How you MAGAts liking the war business you've empowered so far?

Obviously, no one around Old Yeller ever heard of "the Parthian shot."
With this ---- it'll be oil, not gold, figuratively poured into the yippity-yappity's maw.
And we will all pay the price.
Thank all Republicans when you get a chance.
They worked hard to own it.

France poured a mountain of resources into helping finance the American Revolution in an effort to stick it to their longtime "les rosbifs" rivals. Seemed like a good idea at the time, although that action helped bankrupt the government and lead to its overthrow during the ensuing French Revolution.

Busy pedoing and bitching.

Yip-yapping on MTG? My, oh, my. Seems like only yesterday didn't you keep a crumpled-up, life-sized poster of the lady in your sleeping bag? Oh, well, what the hell, tomorrow's another day.

It took a while for the Fuehrerbunker crew to catch on, too.

So says Trump.

Strokes can have some odd effects. Fetterman was an egotistical loudmouth prior to that event and he's been an absolute mess since. Too bad nobody gives enough of a dump about him to get him the help he really needs.

Todd Blanche has no credibility at all, other than with procuress-in-chief and Donald Trump buddy Ghislaine Maxwell, who perhaps nervously?) waits for Trump's completion of his end of the Epstein Coverup Pardon Bargain.

The question is, will the mullahs and IRGC let Trump off the hook with a conditional surrender or will they require him to do so unconditionally?

Give Old Yeller credit where it's due: the guy is an absolute genius when it comes to finding ways to waste - as in, incinerate - ginormous amounts of other people's money.

Thank you, Republican Party, for this example of what you mean by "the party of fiscal responsibility."

Kinda like "seasoning" a slave.

Abusing a child is just the MAGA way of "toughening em up."

When you work off a Nazi model, some folks gonna go and let their Nazi fly.
No, thank you. Congressional Capon (aka GOP) Caucus and drooling .
You built this.

The nasty fate of 6,000 prisoners taken by Roman forces at the end of the Spartacus revolt.

Do MAGAts realize Trump could be on the verge of issuing an executive order declaring Sharia the law of the land?

So that's Mamdani's secret.

Albert Speer recalled going over plans for construction of Adolf Hitler's dream metropolis Germania, complete with Triumphal Arch, with him down in the fuehrer's Berlin bunker in April 1945 just before the Red Army showed up. That's narcissistic obsession for you.
