I can’t get an image to appear.

In world history, there was never a group of people from whom God Himself created a nation, which He explicitly named. However the adversary crept in and planted weeds. All the nations are compromised albeit with pockets of the elect in all of them.

There’s a reason why Tucker and Rand Paul aren’t the President of the United States. 🙄

Trump is wrong to say “America First” wasn’t used until he came along.

It was coined in 1940 by the America First Committee, which worked to keep the U.S. neutral in WW2

Pat Buchanan also used it decades before Trump borrowed the term.

Trump is welcome to his opinion on what America First means. But he doesn’t own the term.

Of course he talked about amnesty this week. Didn’t use the word, but described it precisely:

And he started our involvement in war in the ME.

While claiming, as subtly and articulately as W, that he “decides”. (Please note: constitutionally, it is Congress with the role of declaring war.)

His expression is trying to say: where is Candace and Kanye when you need them? You left me in the lurch!

I stopped watching him even when he was in Fox. He was trying to act too much. And he does not have acting skills. And I am on the verge of quitting Jesse. He should either learn Spanish or stop using Spanish words with that atrocious accent, like bad ambres, and such. He sounds like a dork.

And if/when “regime change” and “knocking out Iran’s nuclear capacity” fail - what then?

Israel (ie. Netanyahu) will be at war simultaneously in Syria, Lebanon, Gaza, and Iran. And they will all be long-term wars.

The pressure for the USA to get involved will be immense.

Carlson needs to read the Bible. The nations who support Israel will be blessed by God. Only an idiot would ignore that and think they were protecting America.

I defer to President Trump’s judgment. He has more information than I do.

“Of course he talked about amnesty this week. Didn’t use the word, but described it precisely...”

No, he talked about seasonal workers during his last term. We have always had seasonal worker from Mexico, especially in agriculture.

“And he started our involvement in war in the ME.”

Since you must have been born last week, or never gets out, a little check with the internet will reveal to you that every war Israel has ever fault was done with American help.

“...it is Congress with the role of declaring war.”

Yes, but in all the wars fought since WWII, how many were declared by Congress?

Answser: Zero.

You need to give your TDS a rest. You will feel better. DeSantis will never be president.

TC was at Trump’s campaign headquarters on election night, 2024, seemingly delighted by the outcome.

“For those people who say they want peace—you can’t have peace if Iran has a nuclear weapon."

Tucker had his keffiyeh handed back to him.

Chatsworth Osborne IV (as El Rushbo called Tucker) has always been a faker.

He’s just pimping for his sponsor in Turkey.

Your concern troll act has worn thin.

You’re lying. He was talking about illegals working for farmers, hotels and restaurants. That we’re going to let them stay, which is amnesty.

We’re now involved in a war in the ME, when Americans have no interest in that, outside of NYC.

So he’s not supposed to be the “decider” on wars.

I am beyond tired of your fake arguments.
