A lot of scores being settled right now.

Everybody got paid. That's all those people care about.
They just announced on the news that the oil companies are already using the Venezuela Invasion as an excuse to raise prices. Expect an expensive 2026, and tell them what you think of it in November.
And what is YOUR country doing to resist the exact same Far Right pressure on your government? We're the canary on the coalmine, and while you keep blaming the canary, the poison is growing in your country, too.
His father paid for schools, but he was never educated. He is the classic case of a bully who forced other kids to do his homework, for his entire school career. He literally never learned anything, and is profoundly ignorant.
I'd argue that Biden's true mistake was not acting as Lula did and arresting Trump immediately upon entry to office.
I've said that from the moment Biden took office. He should have ordered all of them rounded up and sent to Gitmo for extended interrogation, then kept them locked up as national security threats. Any politician who amplified the Big Lie, should have been removed from office under 14A/S3. Those who helped organize and transport terrorist traitors to Jan 6, like Clarence Thomas' bulldog wife, should have been prosecuted for sedition.
But Biden appointed the most ineffective Republican in history to go after MAGA, and he dithered and slow-walked it, and gave them a two year head start in running out the clock.
As for Trump's supposed "immunity," I think we'll eventually discover that it isn't as wide-reaching as many think, and especially as he thinks. SCOTUS said he has immunity for his official presidential duties, but that's a serious limitation. His official presidential duties are defined in the Constitution, and subsequent case law, and he has immunity for THOSE actions. For instance, Obama can't be prosecuted for murder for ordering drones strikes that were within his presidential duties, as many MAGAs have called for. That was an official presidential duty. But accepting airplanes for bribes, bombing foreign citizens in international waters, deporting innocent people to life sentences in torture prisons in third-party countries without due process, are not official presidential duties, outlined in the Constitution.
Most importantly, planning, promoting, and launching an Insurrection that violates the entire Constitution, and stealing hundreds of sensitive classified documents does NOT fall under anyone's definition of "official presidential duties."
Trump thinks it means he has full immunity for everything, because he mistakenly believes he is a King, but we have to disabuse him of that idea, harshly, ruthlessly, and mercilessly.
We are still a nation of laws, and they extend to all of us, including Trump. He's just choosing to break them openly, because he knows the Dems are too cowardly to stop him, and he is 100% right.
But make no mistake, the American people respect those laws, and have no trouble living by them, and we are APALLED at the cowardly behavior of our elected leaders for not enforcing them on these scummy hyenas.
That's why the upcoming Midterms elections are going to be a bloodbath, certainly for MAGA, but also for Dems to a certain extent. Several elections ago, proto-MAGA candidates kicked out a bunch of entrenched Republicans in the primary, and went on to morph into MAGA, and conquer the government.
The Progressives need to do that exact same thing in 2026 and 2028. MAGAs aren't safe, but neither should weak Democratic bitches, like Schmuck Schumer, and the weakling in my district. I would vote for ANY Progressive, or even any other Democrat, before I'll vote for this loser again.
There may have been more difference in the past, but after watching the Dems do literally NOTHING to blunt MAGA's return during the entire Biden administration, and almost helping them take back the country. Biden put the case in the hands of his AG, and he managed to find the most unmotivated REPUBLICAN of all time to do the job, who gave them a 2 year head start. The Dems deserve a significant amount of the blame.
The Dems obviously don't want to make things to difficult for the Sociopathic Oligarchs. Look at the last shutdown. They let people lose their food assistance for a few weeks, but the minute it started to hit the airports, and the corporations couldn't move their operatives around, the Dems folded within 48 hours, and surrendered with absolutely nothing in return.
Either the Dems are in cahoots, or they are cowardly and negligent. Either way, the result is the same, so who cares if there is a technical distinction?
If you don't think the Dems and MAGA serve the same Sociopathic Oligarchs, you are delusional.
They are like the management tier in your workplace. Some managers are pretty cool, and some are terroristic assholes who make every moment at work agonizing. But despite the difference in approach, they both want you to toe the company line, and put the company's interests ahead of EVERYTHING. Nice or not, they both want to enslave and exploit you on behalf of the company.
We'd all rather work under the nice manager, but if we really want to make the workplace work for the workers, then we have to make the managers fear the workers enough that they appeal the top. That's unlikely, and eventually we will be forced to bypass them, and take our grievances to the top ourselves.
More likely it demonstrates that he doesn't understand time.
