You mean the previous admin cross dressing weirdos in skirts running around the DoD and top of military could win wars? They didn’t even have the balls to call the shot that could have saved 13 marines from a suicide bomber in the withdrawal from Afghanistan. The woke and completely incompetent General Milley thought it was a brilliant strategy to leave billion$ of our equipment for the Taliban. Our military recruiters were not meeting their annual quotas during the Biden admin. Since the 47 admin came to occupy the White House in January 2025, these same recruiters have been meeting their annual quotas easily. You should have some respect for our military.
My Grandson earned a $ 35,000 enlistment BONUS into the USN under Joey and got the selection he wanted. (Sea Bees.)

********, what RW crap site did you find that on. Washington didn't created angst, the angst was created by England the World's greatest power at that time, and Washington defeated it. Lincoln didn't create angst the Confederacy did by trying to leave the United States to keep slaves, and Lincoln defeated it. FDR didn't cause angst the American Nazi Bundt and the America First group, and the Japanese and the greatest military power in the world Germany did. FDR defeated them all. Trump is just an incompetent dumbass that the USA should be ashamed of.
You must study your US History better. The angst I mention is as follows;
Washington; Declined the outcry to be the King and served as President.
Lincoln; 650,000 dead and secession from the US is called angst.
FDR; Starting the draft and lend lease by 1 Vote shows differing US opinions.
Trump; 81,000,000 votes for Joey, the most in History.

You stated in past tense we "lost a war". Specifically, who did we lose a war to?
Ho Chi Minh's North Vietnam. That is what a total **** show looks like. Way too many engagement limitations, etc. We could have wiped out the Viet Minh handily. Even though the Tet offensive by North Vietnam (1968) was a loser, negative public sentiment really began/went up from that point forward.

Clarification edit: Tet was a loser for the North Vietamese

The Reagan library is worth visiting in the Simi Valley, N of LA, if you are in the area. They still do events there but it won't be very crowded most days. Interesting 1980's slice of history. Supposedly still one of the most visited libraries of this kind. (Lincoln in Springfield is #2)

Obama has a good location but not sure its staying power other than they put a branch of the Chicago library in it and it is set up for events and meetings of all sizes. Hopefully Biden doesn't build one.

They need to hold events in Obama’s concrete 3rd world library so he can actually pay all those minority owned contractor businesses suckered into doing the work. As for Biden, they will never be able to come up with the funds for that. Maybe Trump can troll Dementia Joe one final time and donate a federal ICE detention center to use for his library.

I guess I don't agree on the WNBA with semi illiterate. Fairness vs racism. I favor fairness but semi will claim it all is Caitlyn's fault. Is it football season yet?
The hyenabot is about as bright as a dim bulb. The great thing about sports is that talent isn't socialist...at least until the Monstars come along with the ability to steal athletic talent as depicted in Space Jam.

Thune is not working for the American people. Several of the worst have been primaried. It’s time for more to go in 2028. Thune and others like him in the Senate are aloof and lack the courage to hold such high positions.


article said:
Presler said Republican activists face a difficult argument when asking voters to support the party while, in his words, Republicans are “the majority controlling all three branches of government” but have not delivered on campaign promises. “How do I make the case as a conservative activist trying to drum up support for Republicans when, as the majority controlling all three branches of government, we are incapable of delivering the very campaign promises that elected the majority we have today?” he asked. “How do I make the case to elect Republicans when our Senate majority leadership won’t deliver what 84% of Americans want?

I took a 5% stake in a GLP-1 deal with a different spin. One thing you need to watch for is what you say or claim in your material. There is rooms of attorneys looking to take you out. In your article, I believe Hims was pushed into a marketing agreement. Fascinating space, especially right now.
Back in the day, when I was handling large stock orders it was amusing to watch the supposed guru's that tracked 5 % filings for adding to their "prized" recommendations.
My big guy would do the required filings, but would be in and out of the stock in some cases.

Micro-managing the ROE by Westmoreland and LBJ led to the stagnant land fire bases campaign and air losses using known ingress and egress routes.

A comparison can be made today with military plannings for the overhead air campaign with thousands of sorties and almost zero losses.

Big Will … you gotta get some new material.

Is the vax induced stroke keeping you from thinking up a more entertaining insult?
"I don't get any respect !", Rodney ! Always got a laugh from Johnny.

TDS is not an insult, but your psychological condition.

The "Shark", Greg Norman, bought the largest estate on Jupiter Island (Till Tiger bought on the Island.)
He applied to join the Jupiter Island Golf Club and got blackballed by a member and denied entry.
He promptly bought 200 + acres in Hobe Sound on the mainland. He then designed and built his own golf course; The Medalist.
All the PGA Tour players promptly that lived in the area joined.

He has sold the course, his homes on the Island and made multiple millions.
