    What the heck? Are you really telling me that a politician campaigned on one platform and then changed positions once in office? That can't be right.

      Agreed. Did we attack Ecuador? I think you missed my point.

        OK, you are nitpicking about verbiage now? How about "military intervention in Ecuador"?

          Ha. Touche'.

          But this seemed like a bedrock pillar of the campaign and MAGA movement.

              I don't trust the current brass to not overextend our military and supplies.
              But Trump indeed doing the opposite on what he campaigned on.

                Hmmm. Drug wars in latin America versus preemptive wars and nation building. Which has the better track record?

                  Cuba is next on the docket.. I have seen news articles speaking about by mid march they would be at the crossing point of collapse. I am hoping Rubio will figure that out without military intervention, but...

                    By far, drug wars have the better track record. Didn’t everyone watch Clear and Present Danger?

                      Is it bad when a Senate-confirmed position nominee is thrown off the premises of their current DHS job?

                      Although Sean Plankey's access badge was taken and he was escorted out of Coast Guard headquarters Monday, he remains the nominee to lead the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, sources said.

                          Noem committed the cardinal sin in Trumpistan - she dared to say that Trump directly authorized something shady. You never, never, never directly attribute the crime to the boss. That's what mooks are for. So she's out. But in true Trump fashion, it's being floated that someone even more incompetent may replacing her: Ma-Quayne Mullin.

                            In his 'truth' (I can't believe that's a thing) he said she's had 'numerous and spectacular results', just the kind of person you'd fire.

                            But for all his reputations of firing everyone, he can't even do that right. She's moving on to some special envoy crap position.
