How would the United States be “of no further force and effect”? That’s a phrase we use frequently in contracts when we terminate (or contemplate termination of) legal documents. Trump likely sees it regularly, has a general gist of the impact must think it sounds official or something.

Anyway, funny how he pivots from attacking the globalists at the WSJ to attacking judges.

Fair. I do not have a full list of all cabinet secretaries. But I think we'd be hard-pressed to find worse ones than these --
  • Vance
  • Zeldin
  • Loeffler
  • Bondi (although, if it's possible, a VAST improvement over Gaetz)
  • Gabbard
  • Vaught
  • Rollins
  • Lutnick
  • Hegseth
  • Kennedy
  • Noem
  • Duffy
  • Greer

And that's leaving a LOT of meat on the bone.

I think we have normalized the shitfuckery of Trump 2.0's cabinet. These are the worst of us. I've always said I would rather have a random draw of the 343 million Americans over Trump. I'm now confident I'd take the same gamble for any of the 13 cabinet-level officials listed above. Maybe we have a crackhead or two. That still wouldn't be worse that what calla and Ram have enabled.

There have been about 50 killed in skirmishes since 2021, but nearly 8,000 died in the border co flick during the first Trump term, so good for him on trying to get a signed agreement between the parties.

The weakening of Iran probably made this possible as they have been an important supporter of Azerbaijan (though Iran has claimed neutrality for decades). But with Iran out of the picture, Turkey is Azerbaijan’s primary source of support and so there really is an opportunity to use Turkey’s ties to the west here for good effect. Plus the U.S. gets a chance to exploit energy opportunities that could benefit Turkey as well.

As with everything Trump says, we should wait to see the details, but credit to his Administration for pursing a deal here.

[I don’t know Russia’s posture here but they have been a key supporter of Armenia in the past.]

Azerbaijan also was caught in a pretty serious money laundering scandal about 8 years ago, lining the pockets of western politicians …

That sounds right up Donald Trump’s alley.

Next thing you know he will be inviting Kendrick Lamar and Drake to the White House in his pursuit of a Nobel Peace Prize.

Having just watched a National Geographic documentary on Katrina, Michael Brown can feel secure about his spot on any “worst of” cabinet secretaries list.

That's some serious cognitive dissonance right there. Maybe if she gets elected she can repeal the 19th Amendment and thus remove herself from political office. And she majored in poli sci in college, which clearly indicates a strong interest in public affairs - except that she also believes that women shouldn't be in public affairs. It's like a real-life Onion headline.

So, they're going to simply rig the Census data this time to favor red states at the expense of blue states to further cement their total control of government and try to make it permanent. Cool, cool.

So not counting ILLEGALS (who can’t vote) is rigging the system, but flooding the country with ILLEGALS to increase blue numbers isn’t rigging the system. That’s some fucked up liberal hypocrisy and stupidity. One more time for you, ILLEGAL. Meaning no right to be in the country so not counted.
