Would you trade Fetterman for Murkowski or Collins? All 3 are basically Dems, he at least says patriotic things some, they just stab conservative efforts in the back constantly.














All to protect nearly $5 billion in pork from USAID, State Department and the U.S. Institute of Peace.

The cuts they're so concerned about?
- PBS & NPR funding
- Yemen community resilience
- Iraqi Sesame Street
- Pride parades in Lesotho
- Palestinian media companies
- Electric buses in Rwanda
- Vegan food consumer base in Zambia
- Civic engagement operations in Zimbabwe

So there is nothing here about Trump saying anything about what you stated. It is the theory of an ex Fox News host. You just made up the malignant narcissist thing. Not only will you not find unanimous agreement you are in an extreme minority on this.
It isn't a theory. Trump said that. He displays the obvious signs of a narcissist. Come on, dude.

Dems don't like Collins or Fetterman either.

Pure economic chaos. Random tariffs on, off. 10%, 100%, 30% - who knows? The tariffs are for stuff like fent supposedly. 50% tariff on Brazil because Trump's authoritarian buddy is under the gun.

And don't get me started on the tariffs on those cute penguins.

Do you really not understand why USAID is a good program? I guess it doesn't matter since you won't see this because you put me on ignore. Oh well.

USAID is mostly a grift that has stolen untold billions. What few legit valuable things that may exist within can be continued if desired absent the existence of USAID.

I hear our favorite resident nerd and drone enthusiast @Tinker Dan (August) is thinking about joining the US Armed Forces yet again after Sec. of Defense Hegseth announced a new 'Drone Surge':






"Colonels and captains can now grab off-the-shelf or 3D-printed systems without waiting for D.C. approval.

Combat drone simulations will roll out across all branches.

Weapon boards now have 30 days to approve arming requests. This isn’t theory. It’s full-speed ahead to beat Russia, China, and Iran.

Three new drone test zones are coming in 90 days."

Good morning from Dresden, Germany. Currently sitting at a cafe within a head-turn of the Frauenkirche. Right next to it. Too cool.

Glad our thread is back.:cool:

Edit: Pics and it happened.

I'll take economic chaos (which is not really occurring anyway) over just continuing with the unfair trade deals we have been saddled with for decades. The fluctuation in tariffs to this point is largely due to trade partners acting in a disingenuous manner.

If they sweeten my reenlistment bonus with Red Bull and Hotpockets……I am in.

Um, what? children here illegally being used as labor at California marijuana farms? Really Gavin?


If demonstrators pull a knife, gun, or any other form of weapon on any law enforcement officer, they have the right to shoot to protect themselves. Hell, the left supported the DC police in shooting/killing an innocent unarmed old woman who was a veteran of the military. You, me, and any American who did not aggressively start a confrontation has the right to defend ourselves with whatever means and method necessary to thwart the attacker.

Take them out.

Yep, only the liberal ignorant complain about the chaos, not understanding that it really isn't chaos at all, but part of Trump's plans which are working perfectly to date.

It is becoming increasingly difficult to try and teach the left how to make change for a dollar.

That is the law. And it is a good law.

This thing needs to be removed from our American shores. We do not need people with her values in our society.

Will never happen. This admin is afraid of, employing, and can't out-navigate the swamp. Just racking up style points, dealing with Biden's immigration mess, and temporarily shoring up the economy. Better than the cackler in chief becoming President, but a disappointment compared to what it could have accomplished.

Great! Obama is drooling right now. Imagine what he could've done to unarmed civilians if he had this capability the previous 4 yrs. (We're all screwed when another fake gets into the office.)
