Honestly, I'd say the most disastrous decisions of Obama and Biden were not really holding anyone accountable for crimes committed under the previous administration. Obama wanted to "turn the page" on Iraq and the financial meltdown while Biden never put any urgency behind the January 6th cases

What was the most disastrous decision from the most recent presidents that had effects we feel today? Clinton: Lying under oath and getting away with it (paved way for Trump) Bush: Iraq Obama: Syria and Libya Trump I: Covid and pulling out of JCPOA Biden: Running again Trump II: Iran

LIV Golf going bankrupt bc the Saudi government decided to stop lighting money on fire to fund it will hopefully be the end of pro golf's attempt to become as big as the major sports leagues at the NFL, NBA, Premier League level. That was NEVER possible and trying has really screwed up the sport.

Last week, Danbury area residents showed up in huge numbers to draw the line on the brutal ICE tactics being used there - including traumatizing kids at school bus stops. It's action like this that saves our democracy.

I feel like society collectively forgets how crazy it is that the US military is lead by a former Fox News weekend host with no significant management experience who never held a high ranking military command!!!!!!!! A drunkard!

For a second there I was worried the Secretary of Defense might be expected to know something about our weapons stockpiles... You either have depleted inventories that will take years to replenish or you don’t. “Years” isn’t a rounding error.

Increase in productivity since 1979: 93% Increase in hourly pay since 1979: 34% Just so happens that ~25% of workers were unionized in 1979. Today? 10%. As unions declined, the super-rich have taken a larger share of wealth generated by labor. We must build back union power.

Most American have zero interest in the US government treating one of our most important historical allies and trading partners like this. But the worst among us is running the country, thanks to the worst and most irresponsible voters among us.

As I predicted, now that he’s been charged federally, suspended ICE agent Christian Castro has turned himself in and should now face justice in Minnesota as well. All no thanks to Texas Governor Abbott, who did his level unconstitutional best to keep Castro from being extradited to Minnesota.
