Spent 12 years living and working in the Persian Gulf area before retiring back home in 2016. And wondered why the hell I came back to a country gone insane. Realizing my mistake 10 years later;I’m now an expat again & grateful to be out.

Nothing more than a tax (consumers paid for the tariffs in price increases i.e.- taxes) refund dressed up as Presidential largess. I’ll wager $2k doesn’t even cover the yearly cost increases of an average family from the tariffs

Opinion | Politics is the ultimate test for artificial intelligence.
Humans have responded to AI, like many innovations, with skepticism, but could it govern better than politicians? The bar is pretty low, columnist Rod Miller writes.

Kudos to tRump, Vance ( & Musk) - you have awakened a sleeping populace and filled them with an intense resolve!

The more I watch the debacle in the Oval Office, the more I despise JD Vance! He set tRump up and like a fat tuna tRump took the bait. F-N embarrassing & outrageous!

“The US will own and develop Gaza…” Trump. So when the hell is he going to do this? Before or after he seizes the Panama Canal, invades Greenland, and welcomes Canada as the 51st state? I thought he was going to keep us out of war. Seems like he wants to be Emperor of the world Trump? WTF?
