Great news and good job to Don if it holds. Now we wait to see if Israel actually stops bombing.

Yawn

Have you seen this? (6:25 for Vought segment)

Never heard of this Vought dude before yesterday. But Stephen Miller might be the worst person in the federal government.

DMPS suing consulting firm they paid $40k to find Roberts. https://www.kcci.com/article/ian-roberts-des-moines-superintendent-dmps-school-board-special-meeting-friday/68434468 Apparently he was the only finalist named by the consulting firm. I think that’s odd in general, but especially odd considering they knew he initially lied on his resume. (Still not clear DMPS knew)

NJ kid hadn’t tweeted in over a year, but when he did and if it wasn’t about baseball, it was about Andrew Tate

It’s ok, you can admit you’re a liar

He didn’t seem happy about her making fun of Charlie Kirk’s death

You’re going to look very silly in a few months I fear

Weirdly we only seem to have a conflict with cartels in Venezuela though

I replied with an update. I said it’s not official yet. But I do think we will get there, at least with naming Venezuela specifically. Maybe we’ll just say it was an “armed conflict” and not a war though and you will lap it up like the sheep you are.

You interjected Venezuela with the claim that I “confirmed Venezuela was a drug cartel”…

I said they haven’t specified “Venezuela” yet. But considering the Geneva Conventions specifically use the term “armed conflict” to avoid loopholes of people saying “bUt We DiDn’T dEcLaRe WaR!” if they do specify that we’re in an “armed conflict” against Venezuela, you’ll be proven wrong.

Has Trump said “Venezuela is a drug cartel”?

I thought we were just talking about some guys on a boat

Okay semantics man. Why haven’t we blown up any boats recently that aren’t from Venezuela?

Because we’re at war with them. Sorry, “armed conflict.”

You mean because Trump has declared them “combatants” that we are now in an “armed conflict” against?

I’m talking about you calling @squistion’s tweet a lie. Blowing up the boats is not a war crime because we’ve declared “armed conflict,” correct?

Is it a lie because we’ve declared an “armed conflict”?

You’re such a sheep, lol

Trump says we’re now in an “armed conflict.” Of course you’ll try to weasel out by saying “hE dIdN’t NaMe VeNeZuElA,” but have we blown up any boats recently that weren’t from Venezuela? But, specifying Venezuela specifically could still be coming: “We’re blowing boats out of the water in the Caribbean because they’re connected to international narco-terrorist groups,” Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) said during a Judiciary Committee hearing last month. At the same hearing, Graham told FBI Director Kash Patel that Venezuela would be “a good candidate to be labeled as a state sponsor of terrorism under US law.” https://nypost.com/2025/10/02/us-news/trump-admin-says-us-in-armed-conflict-with-drug-smugglers-after-four-boat-strikes/

I’m kinda curious if this was an actual “pride” flag, or just a rainbow.

Fair, I was thinking this thread was more about speech but it does talk about other things as well

This might be better served in the Chicago immigration thread
