Your narrative would match the narrative of Juggler. I am a MAGA, Nazi, blah blah, whatever else you all call Trump voters. So you assumed based off your narrative that I was ok with Fox News exaggerating the vacation bullshit. Make sense to you now? Hope that helps. See Juggler above, the guy tells me who I voted for, I correct him, and he says I am lying. Ok, I guess we are done here.
Get well soon, mickeyrat!
really. I said that? to my drug fuzzy brain , I've asked several direct questions of you. Ones I felt were straightforward, asked to gain some kind of understanding. None of which were even acknowledged much less answered.
you've spoken of being lumped in , unfairly, with those of a certain mindset, yes?
ok, then do tell me if you care to address THIS one question, how is it then okay for you to engage in that very same behavior?

I would have to agree, your drugged brain is definitely fuzzy, my friend. You asked me one question, which I answered directly. What are you talking about that you asked me several direct questions? None that were acknowledged. Can you check your posts to see how inaccurate that statement is? You ask me one question, and I answered. This is getting comical. I actually highlighted your one question in BOLD, and answered it rather directly. Holy shit. You guys literally make up your own reality.

Attorney General Ken Paxton Blocks Biden Administration from Disposing of Wall Materials Before President Trump Takes Office
Attorney General Ken Paxton secured a victory for President-elect Donald Trump’s border-security agenda during a hearing today before a federal judge. The hearing was called at Attorney General Paxton’s request to uncover potential legal violations committed by the Biden Administration after recent reports that segments of the border wall were auctioned off for pennies on the dollar.
The Biden Administration confirmed to the court today that it will agree to an order preventing the outgoing administration from disposing of any further border wall materials over the next 30 days—allowing President Trump to use those materials as he sees fit. This will be adopted as an order of the court, making it enforceable if any violations occur.
Additionally, the court stated that Texas is entitled to documentation proving that the Biden Administration has not violated an injunction secured by Attorney General Paxton in May of 2024 that required the Biden Administration to spend statutorily obligated funds on border wall construction after the federal government attempted to illegally redirect the money. If it is shown that the Biden Administration disposed of border wall materials purchased with funds subject to that injunction in violation of a court order—or that the Department of Justice made misrepresentations regarding the border materials that have been auctioned off—this would constitute unethical and sanctionable conduct, and the responsible parties could be held in contempt of court.
“We have successfully blocked the Biden Administration from disposing of any further border wall materials before President Trump takes office,” said Attorney General Paxton. “This follows our major victory forcing Biden to build the wall, and we will hold his Administration accountable for illegally subverting our Nation’s border security until their very last day in power, especially where their actions are clearly motivated by a desire to thwart President-elect Trump’s immigration agenda.”

You are talking about a wall on the US-Mexico border.
I don’t even care if you aren’t talking about the wall (which you were) US sovereignty is in exactly zero danger. Saying anything else is, yes, stupid.

President Biden still regrets dropping out of the 2024 presidential race last summer after mounting pressure from Democrats to step aside, according to a report.
The president recently told people that he still believes he could have beaten Trump in the November election, despite his rough debate performance in June and his low approval numbers that forced him to leave the race, according to the Washington Post, citing people familiar with the conversations.
Following the June 27 debate, more and more Democrats began to call for him to drop out every day, so another person could run in his place.
The president also saw much of his funding dry up last summer as donors began to doubt his chances of beating Trump.
Biden left the race on July 21, and endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris, who had just over three months to campaign before the election.
Trump beat Harris by 2.2 million votes.
Biden has been careful not to blame Harris while insisting to aides that he could have won, the Post reported.
Even when he dropped out, Biden still believed he could beat Trump – whom he defeated for his first term in 2020, according to the New York Times in September.
Rep. James Clyburn, D-S.C., may disagree.
Clyburn, who met with Biden earlier this year, told the Post that he had told the president, "Your style does not lend itself well to the environment we’re currently in," while speaking of style versus substance.
Biden national security advisor Jake Sullivan told the Post: "How to govern at this moment to set the U.S. up for long-term success has one answer, and how to govern to deal with midterm and presidential elections in the very short-term might have a different answer. The president went with doing the things that really put America in a strong position."
Among acknowledgments of other mistakes – including his debate performance – Biden has also said that he regrets picking Merrick Garland as attorney general, the Post reported.
Convinced to do so by aides who said that Garland would be a consensus pick, Biden has privately said that he feels Garland moved too slowly on prosecuting Trump, while also claiming his son Hunter had been prosecuted too aggressively.
Dude don’t you have a New Year’s Eve party to get ready for I hear they are looking for volunteers down in crablardo to serve the cocktail hour! And then you have the inauguration ceremony to attend did you get your Uncle Sam outfit all dry cleaned and be sure to get trumpollini attention so he can look at you and give you the thumbs up!
Yes, I'm very worried about this and not worried at all that Trump supports the tech-bros plan to increase the import of Indian labor at the cost of American jobs. Great work keeping your eyes on what's important.

Seemed like the logical place to post this. RIP, President Carter. He did some good things later in life - buillding houses and stuff.
He did a lot of good things while POTUS too. Get woke yo!
Conventional wisdom holds that Jimmy Carter was a failure as a president, redeemed only by his philanthropy and efforts to promote democracy in his post-presidential years. This is palpably wrong. Carter’s accomplishments at home and abroad were more extensive and longer lasting than those of almost all modern presidents.
Carter, who died Sunday at age 100, became president when the American people were seeking an outsider to remove the stain on the presidency from the Watergate scandals, putting together an improbable coalition of Black people, conservative Whites in the rural South, and traditional Democrats in the industrial Northeast and Midwest. He cemented his tireless campaign with a simple pledge to voters: “I will never lie to you” — a promise he kept.
Carter helped restore trust in the presidency through ethics reforms more relevant today than ever before. He established the Senior Executive Service and insulated civil service workers against political pressure. He slowed the revolving door for departing officials and placed independent inspectors general in every department. The Office of Special Counsel originated with his legislation to investigate possible wrongdoing by high-level officials. And he extended ethical standards to the private sector through the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, barring corporations from bribing foreign officials to obtain contracts. With Walter Mondale, he created the modern vice presidency as a fully engaged partnership.
In terms of legislative achievements, independent presidential studies rank Carter’s among the top of modern administrations. Carter dramatically expanded all major education programs, established the departments of Education and Energy, put the United States on the path to greater energy security from OPEC (the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries), deregulated and transformed our entire air and ground transportation system and communications industries, placed consumer advocates in major regulatory agencies, and added more land to the national park system than all presidents together since Theodore Roosevelt. This first president from the Deep South since Reconstruction championed civil rights and appointed more women, Black Americans and Jews to senior administration positions and judgeships than all 38 of his predecessors combined.
But his most lasting accomplishments were in foreign affairs. Carter’s signature achievement, reached over 13 agonizing days and nights, was the Camp David Accords between Israel and Egypt. They led to a peace treaty he personally negotiated, which provided security to Israel after five wars with Egypt, anchored America’s Middle East policy for 40 years and formed the basis for his Nobel Peace Prize.
Carter put human rights at the center of his foreign policy to such a degree that no future president has been able to ignore it. This stance put Moscow on the ideological defensive during the Cold War against dissident groups such as Solidarity in Poland and the Soviet Jewish and democratic movements within the Soviet Union.
Carter’s policy toward the Soviet Union combined soft and hard power. He concluded a nuclear arms treaty with Moscow that, while never ratified by the Senate, significantly decreased the number of nuclear weapons on both sides and was nevertheless honored by President Ronald Reagan and the Soviets. He increased defense spending after Vietnam and green-lit every major new weapons systems Reagan later deployed against the Soviets, including persuading reluctant European governments to accept nuclear missiles on their soil, which Mikhail Gorbachev later cited as a significant factor in the Soviet demise. And he established formal diplomatic relations with China.
Even Carter’s sharpest critics admit that he acted decisively against the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan with a grain embargo, draft registration, a boycott of the Moscow Olympics and arming mujahideen fighters. Wary of a Soviet thrust toward Middle Eastern oil routes, he promulgated a “Carter Doctrine,” assuring Persian Gulf nations that any attempt to block passage would be met with American military force.
And while conservatives scorned Carter for withholding arms from Latin American dictators as part of his human rights policy, he helped democratic movements come to power in the region after he left office, which — together with his most difficult battle with the Senate, the Panama Canal treaties — began a new day in relations with neighbors south of our border.
Given all this, why is Carter’s presidency remembered so harshly? It is due in part to his unorthodox approach to the presidency. He believed he could park politics at the Oval Office door and procure another term by concentrating on doing the “right thing,” forgetting that a president must be politician in chief. He failed to carefully build coalitions with interest groups and members of Congress through personal contact, small favors and outright horse-trading — all of which he abhorred.
The Bidens wore masks outside the house but took them off to go inside for a photo. Can't make this shit up!
That’s hysterical!!! I wouldn’t expect nothing less from the Vegetable in Charge and his wife.
Just got done watching our shit-for-brains President attempt to say some niceties about the passing of Jimmy Carter, you wana talk about cringeworthy…holy hell!!
