What's Trump going to do, turn Bagram into an ICE detention camp?

Didn't Trump just say a fey days ago the domestic violence cases shouldn't be included in crime statistics?

Exactly what is it that the Republicans in Congress are afraid of?

OCU

Just another case of voter fraud by a Republican...

Cancer treatment helps people live longer so they can use the social security and medicare they've paid into over their entire working lives.

That's my plan...

I guess they had no choice, if they were going to keep their narrative going that political violence is only coming from the left...

This is of particular concern for someone like myself who has been given a chance to survive longer than I would have 11-years ago, before the cancer drug regimen that I'm now on was available. And I suspect that federal research dollars played a significant role in the development of the drugs which make up this regimen.

I suppose the next thing is that Trump will want to do the same with labor and inflation reports as well.

I thought lawyers could be barred from practicing if they knowingly lied in court or to a judge.

What's Trump going to do now, raise the tariffs on Brazil to 100%...

Just be honest and say "No Jews."

Or no Muslims...

This is like when during the Jim Crow era, across the south they made African-Americans pass a written test before they were allowed to register to vote, and then on election day, they collected a 'poll tax'. Note that these were applied on per person basis, meaning that the local authorities could exempt anyone they wished.

It will be interesting to see if the test will be geared to White South Africans...

And then Trump fell asleep during the final set and it appeared that he also failed to stand and applaud the winner at the end of the match.

And the irony is that the Republicans have for years been arguing that we needed to get rid of the 'death tax' (AKA, inheritance tax) so as to protect small to medium sized family farms from having to be sold to pay off the taxes when the owner dies. Well, now the policies of their party is forcing the sale of those same farms while the owners are still alive and kicking.

Cops and donuts. Who knew?

Actually 'Cops & Doughnuts' is a pretty cool place. We've stopped there several times as our youngest son lives just a few miles from Clare, Michigan:

Despite the fact that Trump is not sure whether he needs the approval of Congress, he's already ordered that the marque on the Pentagon be changed from 'Department of Defense; to 'Department of War' (there was a video of an employee scraping off the letters of the word 'Defense' on the news last night).

Trump is now suggesting that when the War Department was changed to the Department of Defense after WWII, that the Pentagon had gone 'woke' and that this cost us victories in Korea and Vietnam:

After the last one? The one with the senior citizens and dei chuckleheads in their wrinkled unisex pajamasmock who couldn't even stay in step?

Were you ever in the service, or more specifically, the Army? Have you ever heard of 'route step'? It's a manner of marching which while the organization of the ranks are maintained, the members are not expected to march in cadence. This is the way you march if you're having to go a long distance, as was the case during the parade in June. I suspect that Trump was expecting something along the lines of what you'd see in Red Square or in North Korea, and perhaps even from some old newsreels of Germany troops marching into Paris during WWII.

And for the record; I was in the Army and I did my share of marching, so I know of what I speak.

Not sure what sort of 'parade' could be held to recognize the Navy's 250th birthday. Perhaps a 'parade' of ships up Chesapeake Bay, or along the shore of Long Island, or maybe passing in review in front of Mar-a-Lago.
