    I think you are right, Wiliam Smith. The games are disgusting but not surprising.

    I wonder if, now that the government is back open, the workers will get their back pay for the time they missed work, or if there will be some sort of wait. I imagine a lot of them have bills piling up that need to be caught up with.

    I don't think we've heard the end of the medieval wall that Mexico was supposed to pay for. Ann Coulter says T caved, and he probably won't take that lightly, although his other White House adviser, Hannity, seemed to be OK with things.

    The military industrial complex playbook is sophisticated in its ability to wring out all profits via tax payers and debt funding. The invasion is usually unfolded at about half time. Before that is the secret funding of insurgents, selling the opposition weaponry, insertion of CIA operatives who are still military but have state department dossiers, and then after making an entire shambles of the country .... an invasion subsequent to a bombing campaign which necessitates the replacement of the Air Force stockpile. None of this will be authorized by Congress nor will Congress insist on fulfilling their Constitutional mandate. They will wax eloquently about how after the Venezuelan tyrant is deposed and his regime eliminated....more advisors will have to enter the country to teach them how to run a democracy.

    Venezuela would make a nice alternative for all these South American refugees instead of crashing our borders, maybe they can go the other way.

    roger stones emails and texts will reveal he evaded taxes through complicated offshore accounts (whatever that really means) and was talking about various Russian things with other people close to Trump. Then we will hear cries of “witch hunt and butter emails”. There may even be a smocking gun.
