Perhaps they can kill Donny's patron saint...

Time to repay the Afghanistan pull out favor to Trump.

Give Ukraine everything Biden possibly can now.

I think the idea that Russia has been at war with us for years has finally sunk in the White House. Bit late.

This may well have a chilling effect on future aid to Ukraine by Biden. Also be causing some second thoughts from the fools who voted for him.

No such luck. His enemies are their enemies. He told them so.

Trump's grand vision, no more illegal immigrants, especially those beyond the southern border. Reminder, the wall was never built and no one will admit why, so instead lets toss them all over the border. If the Afghanistan pullout was chaotic, wait till this one launches even with the Military's help and National Guards. Trump failed to enact his travel ban on Muslims in 2017, so this time it seems his team will be more resolute. I just do not see this ending well for either side, the illegals or the incoming administration. California farming, especially in the central valley maybe impacted heavily.

Trump confirms plans to use military for mass deportations

Driving the news: Tom Fitton, the president of the conservative group Judicial Watch, posted on Truth Social earlier this month that Trump was "prepared to declare a national emergency and will use military assets to reverse the Biden invasion through a mass deportation program."

Trump reposted Fitton's comment Monday with the caption, "TRUE!!"

The big picture: There are an estimated 11 million undocumented immigrants living in the U.S. Trump's mass deportations are expected to impact roughly 20 million families across the country.

Immigration advocates and lawyers are preparing to counter the plan in court.
The president-elect's team is aiming to craft executive orders that can withstand legal challenges to avoid a similar defeat that befell Trump's Muslim ban in his first term, Politico reported.
Their plans also include ending the parole program for undocumented immigrants from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua and Venezuela, per Politico.

Its a clusterf**k in the making from an incoming administration which is expected to be a continuation of his last stint, incompetent.

First camps, cooperation of other nations needed for deportation. The people piling up in the camps will get the opportunity to 'volunteer' to work the crops for very low rates.

Wait until the jobs now being done by the undocumented are opened up for citizens to apply for. Due to a rounding up confinement reunification.

Wanna guess on how many will be filled by those looking for jobs now complaining about immigration.

People like to gripe about more then solve issues...

From George Will, WaPo Columnist:

Matt Gaetz, an arrested-development adolescent with the swagger of a sequined guitarist in a low-rent casino, will not be confirmed.

Matt Gaetz, an arrested-development adolescent with the swagger of a sequined guitarist in a low-rent casino, will not be confirmed. His grotesqueness, however, makes three other nominees seem what they are not: acceptable. Considering only competence — leaving aside character blemishes — nothing in their resumes qualifies Pete Hegseth, Tulsi Gabbard or Robert F. Kennedy Jr. for the policy and administrative challenges of running the Defense Department, the intelligence community and the Department of Health and Human Services, respectively.

The Senate’s Madisonian opportunity on those nominations

A good thing about Trump’s ghastly nominees:
They could jolt the Senate into reclaiming its independence.

I'm thinking if smart, giving them credit at best thinking ahead.
I stretch I know...

Will consider him a lame duck and use him up. Feed his ego and cult then do what they want.

Used to be the only thing I agreed with George Will about was baseball. Politics does indeed make strange bedfellows.
