Agree or disagree with the merits of the operation, you can't help but be in awe of the Wehrmacht's Blitzkrieg of Poland
Agree or disagree with the merits of the operation, you can't help but be in awe of the US military might described by Gen Caine. 

Pres Trump threatened Maduro for months -- loudly and publicly. 

And yet US forces caught him and his cronies entirely OFF GUARD and took a sovereign leader from his own country. 

Damn.

Donald Trump has betrayed America. If you couldn’t see it before, you just saw it today.

Trump and Musk, between them, have 18 children (that we know about) with 7 women. Family values, GOP-style.

If the government shuts down Saturday, the richest man in the world will be largely to blame. You may not get access to services you depend on just before the holidays because an unelected billionaire shadow president wanted it that way. If this isn’t oligarchy, I don’t know what is.
