BREAKING: President Biden informed Putin about his plan to bomb Syria before he told Kamala Harris. Putin got the call just before the bombing while Harris learned about it afterward on the news.

It would be funny if they had any sense of shame or hypocrisy, but, of course, they don’t The idea that if Trump orders something it is bad and Biden’s ordering of the exact same thing is good, doesn’t bother them at all.

Like the kids being cages? Jen tells reporters “It’s not the same” but it’s the same, in fact Biden made it worse. Instead of being in the large buildings where they could see others, they are now in windowless 20’ storage containers with lights and air conditioning. talk about being caged.......
