Looks like MAGA Mike has just closed congress down for another week, even though the country is no longer in shutdown. If anyone still things that congress was away due to the shutdown thing again. Its all because to prevent that vote from taking place. Now excuse this time.

Little edit as the Epstein story is developing faster now.

Trump may have spend Thanksgiving 2017 with Epstein. At that point Trump was allready president and Epstein had allready been convicted of "procuring a child for prostitution and soliciting a prostitute". If it turns out that Epstein was at Mar-O-Largo in 2017, then it tears a gaping hole into Trumps narrative that he broke off contact with Epstein long ago. A very important detail: The mails that indicate that he was there were released by the GOP NOT the Democrats!

So Trump made an admission on Fox news, (caught a headline of the article) that he admited that the U.S does not have enough skilled workforce to fill American high tech jobs. And needs people from aboard to fill those jobs.

I mean, If that is true, then with the ICE raids targeting people pretty nearly everyone. That going to scare off a lot of people anyway from coming in. Plus that won't please his MAGA fan base, who is still deluded in thinking that Trump is American first.

Funnily enough our "leader" (or joke of a leader more like) Friedrich Merz plays the same tunes - after telling for months that the immigrants are a problem and deporting them out of the country. Against the law no less.

It's really ridiculous that guys like those two and their followers ever came near power. Total incompetence on all levels.

I always dreamed about a lengthy trip to America (the continent) and also touring a few states of the US. Already saved some 5-digit sum to start that - and then came the re-election. -.- So those plans are on hold as long as a crazy fascist is running amok in that country. Until he and people like Karoline Leavitt don't crawl back under a rock (or preferebly: send under said rock by the people of the US) I've to make due with living other dreams... :(

As I recall, you live in Canada. How do you like living there? Which area do you reside in?

I think we are getting off topic now. Relative debate of posters' countries usually ends up personal and argumentative. Back on topic please.

Seen videos of some former MAGA people burning MAGA hats and shirts. Feeling betrayed by Trump. Well, it taken a while hasn't it? But more people are starting to realise that Trump is a total fraud.

And Trump has kicked MTG from the MAGA movement, and since then, she has received death threats. So private security firms have reached out to give her some protection.

Now, new details have come to light about a secret WH dinner that happened last Wednesday, when Trump invited top CEO's of many companies, and he was BEGGING for them to help him. As he starting to realise that his economy is crashing.

The MTG thing is so funny, and it reaps of hypocrisy, Greene has said:
"He called me a traitor, and that is so extremely wrong, and those are the types of words used that can radicalize people against me and put my life in danger"
So it's so wrong when it is aimed at her, but it is okay when it's aimed at others, as she has done so many times in the past. Meanwhile, Trump has said:
All she does is "COMPLAIN, COMPLAIN, COMPLAIN"
While being the world's biggest complainer, ever. So many other things that could be said but hey. One thing it has shown her just how bad Trump is while showing that she actually doesn't care, as she has also said she still supports him, while he has said he no longer will support her and will support any other Republican that stands against her in the next election. She is probably saying thank F*** for that, as everyone he supports loses.

Epstein victims implore Congress to finally release all the Epstein files. They also say that and rather or not this is true is hard to verify, that "there are about 1000 of us".

Honestly I don't understand why.

They wanted taxes, Trump gave them tariffs.

They wanted to show Canada who is boss, he threatened to annex it.

They wanted to get rid of non white immigrants, and he got that! Masked man raiding American cities as we speak. The illegal off shore camp/prison is still holding people bypassing any courts.

I even recall he did say Mexico paid for the wall just didn't know about it, some years back.

Park services, flood prevention and alerts are gutted. Social security crippled. To MAGA cheers

What is there to complain. I think he does well so far

It's quite simple, Trump has betrayed America, sold the country out. Plus giving $40 billion to Argentina. But maybe withholding SNAP payments took some over the edge. But then again, They wanted America first, but with Trump, they got America last.

watched that, and I would easy imagine that there are way more then 1000 victims, plus some are dead. And will no longer be able to tell their story.

Someone should now meme that Trump went from MAGA to MALA - Make America Lame Again or Make America Last Again.

If Democrats would have some brain they should start make it the official message for Midterms.

@ mr.WHO: I think more could be derived from Mar-a-Lago (Spanish derivative for 'Sea to Lake'). I suppose that excessively isolationist or unsympathetic policies could indeed 'Make America a Lagoon'.

You do realize that at some point in the future he is now going to say I didn't oppose the release of the Epstein files, I even insisted that they do release them, now let's see if I'm right.

I've said to a few Americans this is what you wanted, this is what you voted for, so shut up, you cannot complain about it after you get what you asked for.
