Meanwhile, Senate Dems are faced with an unpalatable choice: either pass the GOP spending bill that essentially gives free rein to Musk and President Trump for the rest of the fiscal year or block it and be blamed for the consequent government shutdown.
Let me see if I can re-phrase your question: Am I and other decent Americans going to spend at least the next 4 years asking each other, "WTF is going on?" And, "Does it look better, or worse, today?"
Answers: Yes. Of course.
Shi**y question you asked, but glad that I could hopefully make things more clear for you.
You will not change anyone's mind. Will be a lesson in futility.
You need to read more carefully. See bolded above. And listen to what at least I and some others have told you Trumpers MANY times. We KNOW what Trumpers think. Most of us, I think, don't need to be reminded of that by-the-minute on these threads. We'd commiserate and discuss without you. And I, for one, would prefer it that way. Hearing you guys say that up is down over and over again does nothing for me.
.....fortunately, he's dumb and incompetent, so he probably won't.
Are you really going to spend the next 4 years repeatedly calling Trump and incompetent? Do you not understand the lameness of that?!?
You can't be serious Sally! You spent the last 4 years calling Biden names and now you're butt hurt because people are calling Trump names? What a snow flake.

So, you would prefer to having only Libs in your discussion? You won't get that here. Why not you all just share all your emails and you Libs can do your Trump-bashing for the next 4 years in private?
Trump is taking federal funds from universities that don't support Israel, deporting lawful residents that don't support Israel, and attempting to primary the only Republican who doesn't support Israel.
Now we can't even afford to drink away the Trump administration.
WASHINGTON, March 13 (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump on Thursday threatened to slap a 200% tariff on all wines and other alcoholic products coming out of Europe if the European Union does not scrap its planned tax on American whiskey.
The Trump family seeks out the corrupt and criminal. Shockingly amoral and disgusting. You people love the crime and the stealing. Just love it.
Representatives of President Trump’s family have held talks to take a financial stake in the U.S. arm of crypto exchange Binance, according to people familiar with the matter, a move that would put Trump in business with the firm that pleaded guilty in 2023 to violating anti-money-laundering requirements.
After all that, Trump's 30 day cease fire is DOA with Russia (surprise, surprise). All the grown ups who have dealt with Russia know that the Russians do not do piecemeal negotiations. You reach an agreement on everything or you have no agreement at all when negotiating with the Russians. That is always how the do things. So, Trump's big flex on Zelensky has turned into Putin's big flex on Trump. So much winning.
Putin's position on negotiations is basically that Ukraine has to agree to everything Putin wants before Russia will negotiate. No NATO membership. No foreign peace keepers. Ukraine gives up Donbass and Crimea and the international community and Ukraine recognize these territories as belonging to Russia now and forever. And BS about respecting Russians living in Ukraine that would just be a pretext for a new invasion when someone tries to speak Russian at a coffee shop and the barista answers them in Ukrainian.
There is still a small chance Russia will do a 30 day ceasefire deal. The US proposal does have a leg in it in that it calls for the release of children who were transferred to Russia from Ukrainian territory. Russia would never agree to that as many of those children have been adopted into Russian families. So, that could be dropped and exchanged for something like Ukraine agreeing to pull out of Kursk, which is already underway. But I doubt that Russia will go for it.

Sally, the it a very WOKE snowflake. Sally is a boy who posts under girl names ... the transition seems to be complete, just like Caitlyn Jenner (nee Bruce Gender).

Then you’ll have to buy American-made alcohol instead. The horror!

Biden weaponized the government and pursued lawfare against the crypto industry.
So, you would prefer to having only Libs in your discussion?
You prefer having only RABOD TRUMPERS in your discussions. You are so WOKE.
Not true at all. I enjoy opinions of everyone, even those I ardently disagree with. I have never even reported a post here. It really doesn't bother me whatever you say. I often disagree with the opinions here of conservatives. Not sure why you keep using "trumper" and "trumpazee." Most of those here on the right are just simple old conservatives. Very few Trumpers. YOu Libs/Dems like those Trumpian terms because it vilifies us.
Finally, let's try to be a bit more respectful of others' opinions. Be courteous. Laugh a little. Smile. Have a good time. You don't have to be a d*ck to disagree with someone here.
Complete nightmare for 'conservatives.' Possibly the worst news ever, unless Kid Rock passes away unexpectedly. I can't imagine this pain this kind of news inflicts on them, and I do feel a little sad for them. Less burning stuff just makes them sad for the America they have lost. Chins up, 'conservatives!' Chins up!
Wind and solar energy generated more electricity in the U.S. than coal for the first time last year, according to analysis from clean-energy think tank Ember. The two renewable energy sources accounted for 17% of the country’s power mix while coal fell to a low of 15%, it said.
I’m still trying to figure out if Teslas are woke.

Trump, at least, probably views it as just another challenge. "Let me see how I can reverse this!"
Amazing what happens when the government attacks coal and subsidizes the hell out of wind and solar...
Imagine being dumb enough to think this result has anything to do with anything but government pressure.

Russia has no incentive to agree to anything they don't like now that a Neo-Appeaserist is in the White House. They are capitalizing and enjoying America's new weakness of will. The Russian's ROI on Project Igor is colossal.

Russia's incentive is stopping the war.
They are winning the war though so they have no incentive to stop if they don't get what they want.
