The Trump administration is paying the Salvadoran government $6 million to house migrants there. We, the US, are paying El Salvador $6 million to hold roughly 250 prisoners. All arguments as to morality and the Constitution aside - why wouldn't we keep them in the US for much cheaper?

He's a terrorist, he's not a terrorist, he's a gangbanger, he's a gang victim, he's a father, he's a wifebeater, he has gang tattoos, those tattoos are meaningless... If only there was some way for an independent fact finder to review the evidence in public and make some sort of determination to ensure the law was being followed according to a process that each person subjected to the law would be due. I dunno, man, has anyone thought of a way of doing that?

Yes it does, but it's just one example of the good America does in the world.

The US and Nigerian military & diplomatic staff have gradually recovered more than half the kidnapped girls. Pres. Trump received two of the freed girls in the Oval Office.

Ok I checked, I stand by that. Trump bought it for $10 million.

It's a country club whose operation is contingent on a covenant with the government of Palm Beach County, so its worth is totally hinged on its value as just that, a historic seaside property with outdated decor and limited use. My guess is maybe ~$20 million on that basis, especially considering the lack of buyers for country clubs. The covenant has other restrictions, for example, that the owner cannot live on the property. Trump gets around that by being employed as the club manager but I doubt other people who might buy the club would want to engage in that kind of subterfuge or take on actual management. Again I only mention that because it limits the value of the property.

Buddy, no. Same kid.

No, not a one. It's a tough life being a hermit in Outer Mongolia.

Second page and not a single post with information or a link about what's happening. Remarkable.

I'm not into schadenfreude, but I do think public officials should be investigated and prosecuted for corruption whenever possible. By IG's, special prosecutors, DA's, USA's, Congress, legislators. However, whenever. And I believe in public records laws. The Trump prosecution stands on its own and his company was fairly and rightly convicted.

Fwiw it's Hegseth's top aide who just got marched out of the Pentagon.

I don't know thing 1 about this right now but if SOL has run that's highly relevant.

Top Hegseth adviser Dan Caldwell put on leave in Pentagon leak probe >>One of U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth's leading advisers, Dan Caldwell, was escorted from the Pentagon on Tuesday after being identified during an investigation into leaks at the Department of Defense, a U.S. official told Reuters. Caldwell was placed on administrative leave for "an unauthorized disclosure," the official said, speaking on condition of anonymity.<<

He didn’t testify before the Senate, he did a presser at the National Press Club.

It's an open question how Baby's comment could be slotted. I was referring to the transitional reference. But sure, maybe it's more Rohm's ilk about consuming the nation to save it.

Yes I saw that & it was on the mark.

This is confusing. Fella above says 'hey dictatorship is great!' I've got zero beef with you.

Yes, communism generally ends really well for everybody.

This is the old communist trope about how the dictatorship was just transitional.

It's fine, just a matter of opinion I guess. But yes I do view Biden as better qualified in every way - education, knowledge, ability to understand and retain briefing, emotional stability, and psychological profile. I do agree that Trump has more energy, that is definitely obvious, but he uses it for deceptive or inaccurate or abusive or longwinded or nonsensical or evasive answers in those same interviews you mention. IMO presidents, like Biden but as they always have, except for Trump, should state briefed positions on matters that reflect consistent government policy.

I'll always say Cheers, so yeah, cheers.
