I actually agree and under Trumps”thinking”

Further more Mexico could use that Russian/Trump analagy to try to reclaim about 1/4 of US land in the Southwest!

Spain Florida!

Note: This is an AI overview:⬇️

The Louisiana Purchase of 1803 added the following states to the United States:

Arkansas, Iowa, Kansas, Louisiana, Missouri, Nebraska, and Oklahoma.

The purchase also included parts of:

Colorado

Minnesota

Montana

New Mexico

North Dakota

South Dakota

Vance will always be a camp follower and not a leader. He was chosen for that reason so he is making as much noise as possible when he can (Munich etc). He needs to make them count. He finally had some Musk-lite moments, so he rushed to blow shit up. DEI law school admission with rich friends who see him as a novelty hillbilly to support. Rubio trying to get back in control of asshole pole position for post-Trump.

The MAGA Red Caps have no need to actually read history … for fear of its just reckoning. Ignorance is indeed bliss!

I also cancelled the WaPo subscription after the Friday Oval Office ambush. Please continue your reviews of Vance as he is a danger to a free America.

The Guardian is both a relief and a painful thing to read, because it is trustworthy and honest. We are struggling to formulate an effective response to what we’re being confronted with by this new regime. Whatever we are asking of our leaders we ourselves must commit to first. They need to know from us and be supported by us. We are the boss!

Vance is a curious animal with no apparent long-held convictions. But hell, he's white and photographs okay.

He really doesn’t photograph ok. He has no chin and wears too much eyeliner. An example of a man who photographs ok is Zelenskyy.
