This well-written piece rightfully hammers the (in my opinion) most evil President that the U.S. has ever had. Comments? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Time to End Wilsonian Foreign Policy [...] Theodore Roosevelt did not base his approach to foreign policy on high-sounding principles or Utopian ideals. Roosevelt once said that he would choose a policy of "blood and iron" over one of "milk and water." Kissinger described Roosevelt as the "warrior-statesman” who dealt with the world as it is. He described Wilson as the "prophet-priest" who desired to bring about a more perfect world. Roosevelt imbibed the geopolitics of Bismarck and Alfred Thayer Mahan. Wilson preached the Sermon on the Mount. [...] https://www.realcleardefense.com/articles/2023/12/02/time_to_end_wilsonian_foreign_policy_996370.html

I agree that Santos had to go, but he wasn't going to run again, and due process was absent, and his Congressional district is now not represented. Comments? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The rushed expulsion of George Santos [...] Putting aside the Civil War expulsions, which were a thankfully unique circumstance, the House has only expelled members after 1) the member was convicted of a crime and 2) the House Ethics Committee recommended he be expelled. Today, the House ignored those two precedents in getting rid of Santos. [...] https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/the-rushed-expulsion-of-george-santos

Double standard yet again. Comments? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Capital Crime and Cover-Up: Where are the J6 Committee Videos? [...] Now, one would assume Smith and the Department of Justice would be furious that a congressional body responsible for archiving critical evidence in the unprecedented criminal case of a former president failed to do so. If any action clearly meets the legal standard of obstruction of justice—or obstruction of an official proceeding, one of the charges against Trump and more than 300 Jan 6 defendants—it is the destruction of recorded depositions of several individuals who may appear as witnesses in Trump's March 2024 trial.

I'll never figure out why Ecu bakery products are always coated with grease or butter but are almost always too dry to eat without an accompanying liquid.

See assistance with P-math, see Y ma'am. We appreciate the analysis very much, si Y ma'am.

If hot or corn, no problem, no man.

94-Year-Old Veteran Kicked Out of Nursing Home, Replaced by Migrants This seems to keep happening in New York City (and other places) and it should have everyone seeing red over the Biden border crisis. The latest incident took place at what was formerly a senior living center called Island Shores Residences on Staten Island in New York. That facility is now known as the Midland Beach Migrant Center. That turned out to be bad news for 94-year-old US Army veteran Frank Tammaro. He had been living independently at Island Shores for some time but was told earlier this year to pack his things and leave within two months. His room was given to illegal migrants [...] https://hotair.com/jazz-shaw/2023/12/01/94-year-old-veteran-kicked-out-of-nursing-home-replaced-by-migrants-n595926

No one said that he wasn't. However, it's nice to give him credit where due.

Most asylees won't sign up on VJ; they have other outlets. Refugees are typically in the regional forums under the respective program names (U4U, et al.).

Evil ploying senior center! Evil, EVIL ploying PLOYING senior center SENIOR CENTER!
