George W. Bush may think that a war against Iraq is the solution to our problems, but the reality is, it will only serve to create far more.

A man of Trump's rapidly deteriorating body and mind can't hope to spend the billions of dollars in ill-gotten gains he's obsessively accumulating, at the expense of the United States and its people. But what Trump can’t take with him, he'd just as soon ruin, as I discuss in PN.

All of this is fucking senseless. Minnesota did not have an immigration problem. Trump sent his Nazi thugs here because he's racist against Somali people and to own libs like Tim Walz. Now two Minnesotans are dead and Minneapolis is on the verge of going up in flames. None. Of. This. Was. Necessary.
