I have this bumper sticker on my vehicle.
When I worked at the Pentagon, one of my co-workers got to work one monring the same time I did. He looked at my bumper sticker and said while pointing at the sticker "you're not one of them, are you?" I said take a closer look at the sticker and once he di, he laughed and approved of the sticker.
I used to think the same way - the most of the military and police would be on a Constitutional side. Now I am not tha sure. Maybe those police that are not controlled by appointed leaders. My working int he Pentagon for 9+ years has left me unsure of the military.
Do not forget those movies that came out during President Trump’s term - those movies where criminals were released for 24 hours to create as much havoc as possible. What a coincidence they stopped making them once Brandon occupied the White House.

I saw this video yesterday. Thought I heard the police officer say it was a woman’s car. Either way - man or woman - I am glad the vehicle’s owner is pressing charges. A felony also! I do not see that marriage lasting much longer.

You really blame President Trump for the 2020 and 2022 Congressional elections? Silly me, I was putting the blame entirely on the Republican Party. As for his life and businesses, I can't pass judgement on him for that. He takes chances, which has risks and benefits. He is a typical New Yorker, a bragadicio. I've met many like him in the service. Regardless of what you think of him, if you look at his record as President, he accomplished a lot of good stuff.
A question for you - if you have a problem in your home (say a plumbing problem), do you want someone to fix/repair the problem no matter how he talks, or do you want someone who talks nice to you but can't get the job done right?

One of the worst jobs I had was for a government contractor after I retired from the U.S. Navy. I started working for them in January 2001 at 43 years of age. About 99% of my co-workers, boss, and just about everyone else in the company were in their 20’s and early 30’s. My co-workers liked to meet and drink after work about 2-3 times a week. Beomg retired military, I was doing that before most of them were born. One of the worst jobs I ever had.
As I said, if the place is so damn great, why would anyone want to leave? Doesn't matter if they are citizens or not. If they come to the United States in droves, then the island is not that great a place to live and work.

Recently, I have seen commercials advocating and extolling Puerto Rico as a fantastic place and vacation site. Whenever I see this commercial, I think if it is so effing great, how come the natives leave the island in droves and come to the United States?
