Over here is AR, a man that chased down his daughter's abductor (under restraining order too), confronted, then killed the molester in a scuffle, and now charged with murder, just won the Republican primary for Sheriff of said county. He decided to run because that office mishandled and ultimately lost dash cam footage of the encounter. The judge was pulled off the case too, which is still pending. When he wins (he beat the incumbent at the primary), I'm betting on a clean sweep of that office. Didn't they make a movie like this with The Rock?

Looks like Bill is beginning to take on aspects of the Biden walk. Complete with what looks like dressed up tennis shoes.

Not to take away from the fact that he's a old man, but the shoes like that are pretty in style right now with suits.

Don’t be silly dude, this is baseops.. disrespecting the troops only matters when left wing presidents do it

Firstly, poor taste in photo choice, obviously. Secondly, the offer is par for the course across many presidential PACs that span R and D. Thirdly, this is a PAC, not the president directly - he had zero personal direction associated with wording or picture. Bottom line - whoever in the PAC made the photo choice is a dipshit, but the fake outrage directed directly at Trump is just that.

Can I be outraged at the hat, or is there someone else I should blame?

Also, this was amusing -

You’re outraged at a hat? Is this a serious question or am I missing sarcasm?

I thought this was AI...Simply unreal.

Gov. Kathy Hochul (D) complains that wealthy people are ABANDONING New York for Republican states like Florida and Texas to avoid oppressive taxes that fund her "generous" social programs

She's PISSED they are no longer "captives" in her state.

New York spent $81,000 per homeless person last year and will spend more this year. It's the duty of every patriotic New Yorker to give their money to the state to not solve this problem but feel good about "doing something."

The welfare/administrative state must be shrunk by at least 50-75%

The GOP should run an ad campaign with two tax scenarios for the average tax payer, one funding the beast of bloated social services and one with very modest social programs where welfare returns to the churches and local civic societies thru individual donations

Ask the voter what do you want, aloof bureaucrats wasting your money in utopian schemes to address aspects of free societies that are features not bugs that can’t be solved only treated or you deciding how much and where you want part of your income to go to benevolent efforts?

The plan is fiscal dominance. The Fed will serve its primary function by allowing the US government to continue to borrow money at below the true inflation rate in order to suck value out of prior labor. This will enable the government to continue spending unencumbered by financial reality. And it will also force workers to continue working. There is no escape.

I still hold some minute hope that the powers that be realize destroying the dollar is not going to work, the piper must always be paid

One of my biggest issues with the current administration is their attacks on free press. We've all seen Trump's contempt for new organizations that attack him and while some of what they say is not true...the same goes for many things he says. There is a reason freedom of the press is in the First Amendment...the founders thought it was that important. As Edmund Burke stated, the Press is the 4th estate...a final check and balance outside the control of the government. Current efforts by this administration are horrific and I hope the courts continue to punch them in the face. For those not following the story below, Hegseth tried to limit which press organizations could freely roam the halls of the Pentagon...sounds odd but it has been going on for years and if you know anything about the Pentagon it is normal to see Barbara Star and others standing in line to get coffee or lunch down stairs. A federal Judge struct down previous restrictions so Hegseth is doubling down and moving EVERYONE outside...very ungood.
