    Your retweet - Joe is about to swing the EO pendulum back. And the next GOP (LOL that will never happen) will undo Joe. Congress has abdicated their responsibility

    And I hate that. On principle, I could jive with Joe rescinding Trump EOs. That’s not going to happen. He’ll rescind all of Trump’s and add 50% more new ones, just as Trump did, and Obama did, and Bush, and so on. The opposing party will raise hell about the EOs but never address the real issue.

    Whomever was involved in fooling the CIC in order to keep US troops in danger as occupiers in Syria should be court-martialed and imprisoned if true.

    Trump was the last chance to restore power back to the people and expose the rot of DC.

    People forget that Rome once had a functioning Senate but ended up giving in to dictatorship. It was to be temporary. Just long enough to flatten the curve

    Dialed in. This same perversion is playing out 50 times over. Jay famously dismissed the need for an emergency session of the state legislature. A few token disagreements but here we still are. We are a fiat country now.

    At least peacefully. History will eventually repeat itself.

    Horrible optics for Liz Sly and WaPo aside, the original article is a fascinating read.

    Jeffrey now says that Trump’s “modest” and transactional approach to the Middle East has yielded a more stable region than either of his predecessors’ more transformational policies. President George W. Bush’s 2003 State of the Union speech heralding the seismic U.S. intervention into Iraq and President Barack Obama’s 2009 speech in Cairo proclaiming a “new beginning” with the Muslim world represent an approach to the Middle East that “made things worse” and “weakened us,” Jeffrey said. Trump’s administration, he said, has looked at the Middle East through a geostrategic lens and kept its focus on Iran, Russia, and China, while keeping the metastatic “disease” of Islamist terror in check.

    Jeffrey believes Trump has achieved a kind of political and military “stalemate” in a number of different cold and hot conflicts, producing a situation that is about the best any administration could hope for in such a messy, volatile region.

    Other administrations did the opposite and instigated and participated in new conflicts in the region. They don’t want stalemates, they have military contractors who helped elect them to enrich.

    As I said in another thread, I expect ‘Assad’ to ‘gas his own people’ sometime next year even though he has no reason to do so, and we? have to intervene to save them by sending in more troops.

    That the military industrial complex exists and is a problem does not have to contradict the fact that Assad launched a sarin gas attack against his own citizens.

    Assad had no reason to launch that attack Duoma. ISIS had much more to gain by prompting military support from the USA against Assad. A false flag seems likely as Assad had nothing to gain by gassing them.
