    Biden has not gone around lying how much he supports Veterans as Donnie Bonespurs has. Filling a position in the government including that of POTUS requires solid moral character and some tangible record of experience. Donnie Bonespurs brings the record of The Liar to his office.

    Dunno know who you are talking about, but I do admire any Lawyer who has the balls to tell their client they are wasting her time and their money on litigation which, in the Lawyer's view, cannot succeed. That is also why I have zero regard for Rudy, Powell et al who are quite happy to trash their professional reputations (such as they are,) while taking the client's money to run down stupid rabbit holes. I hope it will not be too far away when one of those Judges who has to deal with this bout of frivolous litigation actually takes the Lawyer on and orders that they, the Lawyer personally, forfeit any fee, and also pay all costs of the other side out of their own personal pocket.

    Solid moral character. No problem using veterans or anyone else as props, or insulting a entire crowd. Good job, Biden voters.

    “Them taking that well-recognized photo and using it for their agenda and changing veterans’ minds, thinking the president talks to them like that is ridiculous. And I believe it worked. And that’s why I want to get it taken down because it shouldn’t be working. People need to hear the truth. That’s my image. And it should not be up there speaking for me.”

    “I’m just so irritated that they put my image up there because now it looks like the president called me a loser. And they’re using that to sell something that they believe in for their agenda. It’s not fair to put us [veterans] as props in the middle of all that.”

    General Kelly led troops in Iraq before Trump made him Secretary of Homeland Security & then Chief of Staff at the White House.

    General Jim Mattis led troops in Afghanistan and Iraq & was on the board of General Dynamics before Tump made him Secretary of Defence.

    Lieutenant General H.R. McMaster led troops in Iraq before Trump made him National Security Advisor.

    Looks like Trump packed his Administration with 'Imperialists' and 'Warmongers.

    I'm guessing you werel ess upset about those appointments than you are about this one. I wonder why? What could it be? I feel like it is staring me right in Austin's face.....

    Ah, there it is. Well at least you are open about your issue with this. So much for all the rhetoric.

    They like to forget these things and act like Biden is such a great person because these things Biden says and does, does not fit thier narrative.

    Yup, Sally Yates puts her duty to her country first. Barr swore alliegance to your fuhrer.

    Yes, but he did have those two guys who hung in the bar at Mar A Lago dictating VA policy for a while.

    Actually, I don't recall hearing anyone bringing up an intelligent debate about Kelly, Mattis, McMaster over the last year. It was hard to get around "Orange mad bad," to actually talk about much else.

    ...and everyone knows that racist Joe is milking the left-wing identity politics strategy for all it's worth like a good Dem leader. Of course, many on the left won't be open about it. Comment on the strategy and you're a racist. That is the strategy. LOL

    If all you have on Sally Yates is a valid counterintelligence interview and refusing to support an unconstitutional executive policy (not a law), I like her even more.. Plus, Holly Hunter can play her on SNL if needed...

    Right, by disregarding her duties and refusing to fight for the executive order in court like any other AG has done(Eric Holder lost cases for Obama, so don't tell me that was her reason.). Those who participated in Crossfire Hurricane and the resistance, should be blacklisted from public service jobs. Because clearly the 'public service' aspect of it, is utterly lacking.

    Oh well drinking and making Veteran Administration policy does sound like a very compatible process. Plus a sure cure for PTSD!!!!

    Much better, in that at least he's removed from the stink. Maybe some people like high ranking officials who lie under sworn affidavit but I don't. If we can't prosecute them, at least blacklist them just like Trump's blacklisted from the government.

    It's selective enforcing of the laws, and both sides should despise that. But since I don't have the power over it, I shrug. All I ask, if they're not to be punished at least recognize they can't serve a government. I don't mind them going into some institution, writing their books until their arms fall off or becoming some lecturer(like Condolezza Rice). But they can't actually have the levers of our civil government.
