    Why do so many Congressman go along to get along in DC? Turn up the volume and listen to grown adults, each paid $174,000/year, boo and groan when they are called to push little buttons and record their votes. Peer-pressure causes many votes to go unrecorded.

    The MIC, the permanent government in Washington, neocon chickenhawks, and the fake left all genuinely want Empire and perpetual war. It’s not the process they object to, it’s peace they reject. Then there are those with TDS. If the President is for anything, they’re against it.

    I am the only person in America who could say that, “I’m bringing our great troops back home, with victory,” and get BAD press. It is Fake News and Pundits who have FAILED for years that are doing the complaining. If I stayed in Endless Wars forever, they would still be unhappy!

    ...I campaigned on getting out of Syria and other places. Now when I start getting out the Fake News Media, or some failed Generals who were unable to do the job before I arrived, like to complain about me & my tactics, which are working. Just doing what I said I was going to do!

    . estimates that interest payments alone will be more than all national defense spending in 2023. It gets worse and worse.

    I love Jimmy Duncan. I hope the Congress gives him a proper sendoff - the last remaining Republican to vote against the Iraq War.

    I’ve long said there needs to be a revolution in Congress. Last week, helped spark one; he demanded a recorded vote on every bill (and I filled in for him as needed). This is how the House should work—with representatives recording their votes for all to see.

    Have we forgotten how to Congress?! When the House passes a bill and the Senate passes a different bill on the same topic, the two chambers form a conference committtee that negotiates a compromise bill which then goes back to both chambers for an up or down vote, no amendments.

    I know the fine folks who run this FB page and they’ve been instrumental in the legalization of hemp. This is sad. I wonder what FB’s motives were?

    A few years ago, I met a young Marine at Bethesda Naval Hospital. Half his head had been blown away by an IED. Important politicians and handsome talking heads debate 's decision on TV but keep in mind who really pays the price for their policies.

    end it!

    The only problem our economy has is the Fed. They don’t have a feel for the Market, they don’t understand necessary Trade Wars or Strong Dollars or even Democrat Shutdowns over Borders. The Fed is like a powerful golfer who can’t score because he has no touch - he can’t putt!

    “It should not be the job of America to replace regimes around the world. This is what President Trump recognized in Iraq, that it was the biggest foreign policy disaster of the last several decades, and he’s right...The generals still don’t get the mistake.”
