    Biden and his corrupt DOJ just can’t help but continuing to prop up and assist their Chinese payor friends.
    I’ll bet if it was “Russia” instead of China and “R
    “Trump” instead of Biden it would be restricted.

    Not really a fan of hers, but she is spot on here. Something needs to change.
    Something tells me one idiot in Colorado will likely get voted out next November when Democrats put just a tad more money into the election for Lauren Boebert's seat.

    We all know that the likes of Pelosi and McConnell have basically a free reelection based on their district and political party putting them ahead of any other political who would want to run against them. Term limits are needed based on how dysfunctional this congress is. Do you want AOC and MTG being in congress for another 30+ years? How old is Feinstein again? Term limits are needed especially with how financial lucrative these seats seem to be. This is an issue most on both sides of the political divide can agree on.

    Good to know.

    Oh wait, besides suspending religious and press freedoms, Zelenskyy has just suspended the next election.
    He won by 73% last time. Don't think he's worried.

    “Mayor Pete” is incompetent.

    United Airlines CEO Scott Kirby said on Monday that “the FAA frankly failed us this weekend,” as staffing shortages compounded delays and cancellations from bad weather in New York. The FAA is denying staffing problems, but this air-traffic jam has been months in the making.

    The situation is “a direct result of the FAA’s own failure to solve long-running staff shortages,” as Republican Sen. Ted Cruz, ranking member on the Commerce Committee, said in a letter this spring to Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg. The Transportation Department inspector general last week scored FAA’s “limited efforts to ensure adequate controller staffing.””

    All Kirby is doing is passing the buck for his own incompetence. Want an education on how not to run a business look at the majority of the us airline industry. Not saying the faa is free from prejudice but come on MOR, be better.
