Good thing we attacked an OPEC Nation then!

The Working Class Should Be Kinder to Oligarchs

And the world can't wait to see how effectively that plays out in Venezuela!

If you can't be serious, why should we take you seriously?

My only two concerns at this point is
1. What is the price tag?
2. what does China and Russia cook up now?

Those weren't already your concerns when you voted for Trump?

Golly, what changed?

Remember the movie Wag The Dog?

Wondering what cable channel played it recently and psychologically primed Trump to order this invasion and kidnapping.

Everyone else is happy about this except U.S. Liberals.

What you're feeling is the same rush when you got sent to Afghanistan.

It gives your life value and meaning you can't find anywhere else, to serve the white man's agenda.

So stealing is just fine by you boaz?

Are you kidding?

Boaz is eternally grateful that Blacks sold his ancestors into slavery, or he would be living in a mud hut right now.

Boaz understands that Blacks owe everything to the Whites who forcibly removed them from Africa.

"My gas prices are the lowest I've seen in years."

How do you think waging war on an OPEC nation will affect your gas prices?

"We're going to run the country"

How?

Nobody in the Trump Administration can even speak Spanish!

"Did this lower your rent? Did this lower your grocery prices? Did this lower your gas prices?"

It's not government's job to lower your rent, grocery bills, or gas prices.

Sincerely,
Republicans who voted for Trump because of high rent, grocery bills, and gas prices.

I've made it abundantly clear that I don't support this.

Then why do you keep talking about how great it's gone in the past?

the US did facilitate regime change and the outcome was good for Hawaii

Evidence?

"Many Venezuelans did not panic, they cheered from their homes when they saw the helicopters."

^
Imagine believing this matters.

"BellRinger. Has it ever worked out well?"

"Hawaii. Puerto Rico. Possibly Iraq."

Hawaii and Puerto Rico and Iraq worked out well for whom, exactly? Us, or Them?

Iraq cost about $4T what makes it possibly worth it?

Good to see the Venezuelans rejoicing.

How'd these celebrations compare to the Dancing Palestinians on 9/11?

Also, if we are already a collective than what is it Mamdani is proposing being replaced?

People with your attitude not being a part of the government any more.

The Hugo Chavez monument didn't get blown up?
It was saus to be blown up in early reports.

One thing I can say with absolute certainty. If...

Hahaha.

"Our president will start a war with Iran because he has absolutely no ability to negotiate. He's weak and he's ineffective. So the only way he figures that he's going to get reelected -- and as sure as you're sitting there -- is to start a war with Iran".
Donald J. Trump, Nov 2011

Well, I guess this is why the previous commander for the southern hemisphere quit.

The plan to kidnap Maduro came across his desk and he figured, nah, not for me.

"there was once a time where people admired the rich and we aspired to be rich"

Most people are aware that's not a realistic aspiration for them any more.

Because Since 1975, practically all the gains in household income have gone to the top 20% of households.

Hey BillJohnson,

Oregon votes entirely by mail, right?
I'll make this really easy for you: The thing you say has to happen, it has already happened.

Automatic election recounts in Oregon are triggered when the margin between the apparent winning candidate and the next candidate is 0.2% or less of the total votes cast for both candidates, or in the case of a tie.
This rule also applies to ballot measures, unless a measure requires 50% voter turnout and that threshold is not met.
All recounts in Oregon must be conducted by hand by a counting board composed of at least two county electors registered with different political parties.

In the May 20, 2025, special district election, more than 25 races across multiple counties were determined to be close enough to trigger automatic recounts.
The following recounts were initiated:

Baker County: West Eagle Valley Water Control District, At-Large position
Clatsop County: Seaside Rural Fire Protection District, Director, Position 2; Arch Cape Domestic Water Supply District, Commissioner, Position 2
Coos County: Bunker Hill Rural Fire Protection District, Position 3; Shelley Rd-Crest Acres Water District, Position 3
Crook County: Juniper Canyon Water Control District, Position 4
Deschutes County: Laidlaw Water District, Director, Position 3
Grant County: Grant County Transportation District; John Day Rural Fire District; Monument Cemetery District; Long Creek School District, Position 5
Gilliam County: Rock Creek Water Control District Director Zone 2; Rock Creek Water Control District Zone 3 (recount completed June 11, 2025)
Klamath County: Two director positions in the Modoc Point Sanitary District
Lake County: Christmas Valley Rural Fire Protection District, Director, Position 3; Christmas Valley Park and Recreation District, Director, Position 5
Lane County: Dexter Sanitary District, Director, Position 3; Dexter Sanitary District, Director, Position 5; River Road Water Control, Directors, Positions 1"5; South Lane School District, Director, Position 7
Linn County: Denver-Conner Water Control District, Position 6; Little Muddy Creek Water Control District, Position 3; Little Muddy Creek Water Control District, Position 5
Tillamook County: Ballot Measure 29-183; Nedonna Rural Fire Protection District " Director, Position 4; Beaver Water District " Commissioner, Position 4; Twin Rocks Water District " Commissioner, Position 4; Cloverdale Sanitary District " Director, Position 3 (all recounts completed)
Umatilla County: McKay Dam Fire, Position 5; Milton-Freewater Valley Ambulance District, Position 5 (tied write-in races)
Wasco County: Tygh Valley Rural Fire Protection District, Position 1
In the November 5, 2024, general election, two contests required full automatic recounts: the City of Gladstone, Councilor, Position 3, and the City of Molalla, Councilor (three positions).
These recounts were conducted after certification of the election results.

All recount processes are conducted by hand, with official observers permitted to observe without interfering.
The results of the May 2025 recounts were finalized with no changes reported in some cases, such as in Lane County.
