Go ahead! Put a Russian agent in charge of all US Intelligence.

What could go wrong?

What has already gone wrong?

Go ahead, put a sexual predator, who has no respect for the law, in charge of the Justice Department. What could go wrong? Why do we need laws, anyway? Why do lawbreakers need to be held accountable?

Go ahead! Create as many problems for the world as you can! Someone will always be there to clean it up.

Go ahead and balance the budget on the backs of the poorest and neediest Americans. Anything that will preserve and increase the wealth of Elon Musk , Donald Trump, and their oligarch friends.

Go ahead! No one will stop you.

The people have spoken.

My volunteer project for the foreseeable future is the disappointing task of writing each and every elected Democrat in Congress and every Democrat governor and shame them into becoming highly visible and visibly unhappy on every form of media and show us some serious f*****g leadership for a change. A fool's errand? Probably. That said, it will be a good outlet for my fury.

But we deserve their leadership, now more than ever. It's shameful that they have slunk back into the political upholstery, leaving governors (may the force be with them) to draw the line. Kamala should be the first face we see pushing back and shouting the accomplishments of Biden admin to our country then go further to tell us how they will keep those victories moving ahead. FFS!!!

It was a deal with many moving parts and that was one of them.
Putin ally Musk is part of the US ruling body now.

Putin has been laying the groundwork for decades.
It all panned out for him perfectly.

Yes of course. Putin installed Trump into the WH.
Trump now owes him big time.

Trump doesn't like paying his bills, but I think he will be inclined to pay Putin in full.

MAGAs hate the US so much they would rather be Russian than align with their fellow Americans.
And the GOP loves the idea of total permanent power and access to all US financial resources.

How can you give sensitive info to a country who does not care for it properly and who might possibly sell it to the highest bidder.

Something happens in the Persian Gulf / the Mediterranean / the Far East Pacific ie. South China Sea, where an entire carrier task force/battle group gets wiped out and we lose over 7000 servicemen/women in one fell swoop.

All because Trump fucked up.

The seeds for this prediction were sown back on January 29, 2017, when Trump gave the green light for a raid in Yemen, which was a fiasco, ending in the deaths of civilians and a Navy SEAL. (Google the name William Ryan Owens)
