The regime will take lessons from Russia in running a proper penal legion. They won't ever touch a weapon until they get to the front lines, with the enemy in front of them and "barrier troops" behind them.

So the people who hate Trump the most get military training and combat experience. That could end the same way it did for Salazar.

They absolutely planned this out during his illegal meeting with "Bibi" last year. Nobody did anything when he violated the Logan Act last July, when the orange asshole literally said "Looking forward to achieving peace in the middle east." Nobody did shit about it then, and now we're going to war...

Did it look like Vance was actually disturbed by this? He looked off more than usual.

He made his bed, but I wonder if he's having regrets

Everyone who gets involved with the Donvict will have regrets. It's always a matter of when, not if.

This is true, but I'm particularly interested in Vance's opinions right now. He's next in line if the geriatric bastard ever kicks the bucket.

If he dumps the MAGA grift that would be good news in the long run. I don't expect him to, but at this point it would be nice

Peter's puppet will do whatever Peter prescribes. Expecting corporal Bowman to ever do the right thing for the right reason would be a grave mistake.

Obviously he won't do the right thing as Peter's puppet. But he has a very good chance of becoming Peter.

I'm only bringing it up because of how he looked on this talk. Man looked like he was gonna throw up, but that's all speculation

Trump to undress the nation over Iran Strikes? Who's this Iran? Is he gonna do us while we're undressed? Where are our clothes going to go? When can we get our clothes back? Do we have to go to work undressed? I need clarification soon cuz I gotta go to work. I can still see my clothes. Wait, is this a club thing? Is there an STD check before joining? Its mostly men isn't it?
