@MelonieMac @the_irv_m_ IDK, this statement seems to ignore the entire purpose of Ruth

@_NoPalState @Sargon_of_Akkad IDK the glorious city of Constantinople is still in enemy hands, just saying, I think that should be rectified

[Romulus @Romulus1776]

@kaptainfreedom @Sargon_of_Akkad That completely ignores the fact that Roman Emperor Alexios I Komnenos requested the help of the Vatican to defend his Empire against the Seljuk Turks. He did this because his Empire was being invaded on 3 fronts and needed to free up his own army to answer the Bulgar threat

If they need to redact something for national security, they are protecting people they shouldn't

BREAKING: Pam Bondi says “national security” information will be redacted from Epstein files.

There is a reason the MAGA people are getting annoyed, they want to see the list

[Ed Krassenstein @EdKrassen]

So, are Republicans going to just conclude that the Epstein Client List doesn't exist anymore since Trump isn't releasing it?

Conservatives spent years whining about "cancel culture" and people supposedly losing their jobs over a tweet--only to act ecstatic when unelected President Elon fires millions of hardworking government employees for literally *no* reason

You can't spell hypocrisy without GOP

[Justin Amash @justinamash]

To illustrate how unserious Republicans are about cutting spending, President Trump just endorsed adopting a continuing resolution (CR) through September.

This means that Joe Biden’s spending levels and priorities would be extended through the end of the fiscal year.

It also means that Congress would vote on one spending bill that combines all the departments rather than 12 separate bills that allow for more calibrated changes.

GOP leaders have hinted at slightly modifying the CR with some of the @DOGE “cuts,” but even if that were to happen, those items are minuscule relative to the overall bill, so fundamentally we’d be getting a full fiscal year of Biden spending.

People will continue to make excuses for what’s happening, but those excuses will not change the end result. Congress and the White House are pursuing the status quo on spending.

It’s not surprising to those of us who know how bad Washington is, but it’s still appalling.

Whether they’re Democrats or Republicans, nearly all of them—with rare exceptions like @RandPaul and @RepThomasMassie—simply do not care about the fiscal and economic health of the country.

The fix is simple: As a general matter, total expenditures should be limited to the average annual revenue collected in the three prior years. This can be implemented gradually, but it has to be implemented.

The problem is that there’s no current effort at the top to do so even though the president and congressional leaders have tremendous leverage to make it happen.

You may be right, but your data doesn't support your argument, you're ignoring inflation, population growth and the Industrial Revolution
