I’m rooting for the Polio. Those cute hats and little sticks and you get to ride around at a full gallop and then drink gin & tonics afterward.

Paul Pelosi is a venture capital and stock investor well known in the Bay area.
No sheetski Sherlockski.
It’s a match made in heaven! Or at least on a comfortable 16 acre estate in Napa Valley. Or the Pacific Heights mansion. Or while staying at the Auberge du Soleil.
She’s still sharp mentally.
Yeah, seems so. I can tell by her stock trades. Always on point.
1·22 hours agoBroadly speaking, I agree with you. You make a valid point.
But… I just am cynical enough to believe that Trump will in fact start wars in order to cling to power and their cost has nothing to do with it - my only real point here is that that’s not a concern for Republicans, generally. It’s worth noting that that is a key pillar in Putin’s domestic strategy. It’s how authoritarians operate. Even Bush started his wars mainly to boost domestic support and appeal to the instincts for “revenge” people had after 9/11. They weren’t wars that made any kind of sense, financially or otherwise. Not that they ever do.
Seriously, read 1984 and then criticize what I’m talking about.
Why would you assume I haven’t read it? But it’s a work of fiction and warning, not a prediction.
How many wars started during Trump’s last Presidency?
You will need to specify what precisely you mean when you say “war”. As you may be aware, Vietnam was at the time not called a “war” but a police action. Same with Korea. So when Trump did things like bomb the shit out of various places, those were not “wars” but “hurburudsusuerrrdur” or similar hand-waving.
Here’s a rundown: https://www.americanprogress.org/article/reckless-endangerment-president-trump-use-military-force/
“During his first 100 days in office, it has become clear that President Donald Trump views military force as his primary—if not only—foreign policy tool. From a botched special operations raid in Yemen to a cruise missile strike against an Assad-regime airfield in Syria, Trump has proven more than willing to order America’s armed forces into action. Moreover, his administration’s proposed “hard-power budget” cuts U.S. State Department funding by more than one-quarter to help pay for a $54 billion increase in military spending.”
24·2 days agoOoooh… sample size of ONE!
Dude… starting a costly war when you don’t need to and then blaming the Democrats when they clean up the mess is what Republicans do.
I mean, you clearly are aware of which party just got elected to the presidency…
When was the last time anyone under about 65 read Time magazine?
Also, what is a “magazine”?
Why not both?
Well I’m certainly disappointed in his “criminal sophistication”.
I hear that if you huff gas enough it all makes sense.
I keep forgetting that Truth Social is an actual company…
You misspelled “scam”

Actually no, it isn’t. It’s because she’s a fucking virulently anti-progressive neo-con. She has done some good in combatting Republican BS and I respect her abilities as a slimy politician in the same way I’d respect an skilled pick pocket, but this has nothing to do with Republicans.
