There is an active Russian asset at a high level in Pentagon that put screws to Patriot shipments to Ukraine. Pete knows who it is....so now....maybe? Donny will release TEN??? THIRTY Patriots were scheduled to go under Biden in January. Nobel Peace Prize my rear end.

Michael I love you and have been following you since T’s first term. But how your whole tone and framing of issues has changed. Please, if you don’t stop making excuses for the man in charge I’m going to have to stop following you. We don’t expect you to have TDS but you’ve swung too far in the other direction. Yes the lieutenants suck. But who chose them??? Stop blaming the lieutenants and start blaming the general.

I agree; he really seems to have some loyalty to man who screwed him & his family royally. He keeps stating he never saw any Epstein communication while with the clown. Three things are possible: 1) it happened pre his association w/the clown 2) the clown kept it well hidden 3) As much as I hate to say this I wonder if MC might have had some exposure to the Epstein lifestyle & doesn’t want any blowback? …. My guess is it’s #1 in this situation.

Naturally, Texas right wing party has grown incredibly arrogant with feelings of grandiosity. It comes from 2 decades of political dominance over the pathetically weak Democratic party. Every lever of power is controlled by 'republicans' and they have NO accountability.

That 30 BILLION dollars proves what I have believed all along: Simply this - the Republicans always value money over our citizens. Always. AND IT'S NOT EVEN THEIR MONEY. It's tax-paid money. That money must be used to serve the taxpayers. But, not in TX, not in a RED state. Nope, that would make those Republicans "losers." I say it makes them complicit in every death by natural disaster and by every closed medical facility.

Trump chose his cabinet! He could have chosen intelligent, experienced individuals.
