That inimitable look of knowing you did the right thing.
We haven’t had an open thread in a while. Since Easter. And you know what else we haven’t done in a long time? Seen a politician, or I should say a Washington Republican politician follow their conscience at the risk of their personal career. So why not kill two birds with one stone, and have an open thread giving big props to House Speaker Mike Johnson, for risking his speakership to get desperately needed military aid to Ukraine! Why not indeed.
He took the risk, but you know, I think most of his caucus respects him for it and will tell Marjorie Taylor Greene and her couple of creepy friends to go to hell. It was refreshing to see, and we hope it’s not too late for Ukraine. They were doing so well against Putin back when we had their back – now we have it again.
Its ironic that Ukraine can get their borders protected, but our border is so loose it’s not funny.
Well, why don’t you go down there and kick some ass?
And their borders aren’t protected, they’re overrun by Putin’s mercenaries.
Im speaking about the southern border in the usa. Its a K-Mart Blue Light special. I can support Ukraine funding as long as Trump border policies are reinforced and the borders are a bit more closed in the USA. We spend more money on protecting Ukraine than focusing on the southern border. It’s one major reason why I am not a Democratic Party supporter.
We understood you. And there is no connection between the two things.
Biden and the Democrats said okay to you guys’ border shit, and then Trump ordered you guys to back off of it because he prefers to run on border chaos. Don’t piss me off.
“I can support Ukraine funding as long as Trump border policies are reinforced and the borders are a bit more closed in the USA.”
A GYP congressional talking point of assholes like the Texas delegation. There is no connection between these two things except in the minds of those manipulated by the demagogues into believing it’s one or the other.
Al Mijares is resigning from his OCBOE Superintendent position because of his cancer.
The OCBOE will name his successor. I’m not sure how bad this is on a scale of Bad to Worse, but probably closer the the latter. Best wishes to Al M, and I hope that something strong will be running to replace him in 2026. (I have an idea of who it should be.0
