Several officials told me that Patelâs drinking has been a recurring source of concern across the government. They said that he is known to drink to the point of obvious intoxication, in many cases at the private club Nedâs in Washington, D.C., while in the presence of White House and other administration staff. He is also known to drink to excess at the Poodle Room, in Las Vegas, where he frequently spends parts of his weekends. Early in his tenure, meetings and briefings had to be rescheduled for later in the day as a result of his alcohol-fueled nights, six current and former officials and others familiar with Patelâs schedule told me.
On multiple occasions in the past year, members of his security detail had difficulty waking Patel because he was seemingly intoxicated, according to information supplied to Justice Department and White House officials. A request for âbreaching equipmentâânormally used by SWAT and hostage-rescue teams to quickly gain entry into buildingsâwas made last year because Patel had been unreachable behind locked doors, according to multiple people familiar with the request.
Admit it. You hate Trump and repubs so much that you are rooting for Iran.
You have become so pathetic that you now resort to making shit up and lying to score social virtue points here.
You were wrong on Biden, the laptop, that the border was secure. You even went as far to say that the only way to secure the border to pass a bad law that would have permanently codified into law allowing 5000 illegal border crossings per day, effectively permanently opening the border.
Your judgement is so bad, I wouldn't send you to the grocery store to buy a gallon of milk.
So just plain quit criticizing the stuff I post with asking me for tail chasing detailed explanations for my posts. Explanations that you cannot even comprehend.
Better yet, let's just agree to ignore each other going forward so you don't embarrass yourself more than you already have. We have absolutely nothing in common.
Kurt...you're flailing.
What you fail to acknowledge is that we probably agree on more things than we disagree. The one difference is that I won't support a party and its leader who are grifting their way to a complete destruction of what the US has built in the past 100 years. I never "supported" Biden, but given a choice of he or Trump, you've given me no acceptable alternative. Make America Great Again is the most ironic political slogan in history.
Your focus on Biden only reinforces your lack of factual support for the shit-show in DC. You won't engage on the impacts of the war, or the reality that Trump has gotten nothing, spent a fortune, and has proven to Iran that they can fuck with us whenever they want. He's made Iran stronger, all while punishing America and it's allies (minus Israel maybe). You won't engage on that... because you know it's a shit show. How about the deficit? Not your concern now? Inflation? Healthcare? Socialism for farmers? But...but... Hunter Biden's laptop? C'mon man... how about those Epstein files?
You have more in common with the people on these boards than you want to admit, but they all agree on something you refuse to consider: Trump is destroying America, and attempting to take as many of our allies and friends down with us.
GOP Proposes Bill to Outlaw Phrase “Is the Pope Catholic?” Arguing It Encourages Critical Thinking and Can No Longer Be Taken for Granted.
. I made it up...but admit it... you weren't shocked

Trump again shows everyone who supported him that he'd sell them out in heartbeat. Trump Derangement Syndrome is real, and the MAGA folks seem to slowly be accepting that fact.
White House Secures Foreign Steel for Ballroom Project
ArcelorMittal, a European steel maker, is donating tens of millions of dollars of foreign steel for President Trumpâs new ballroom.
President Trump has championed the U.S. steel industry, promising to strengthen
it and to impose stiff tariffs on foreign metals to shield manufacturers
from overseas competitors.
Yet the
White House has secured tens of millions of dollars worth of donated
foreign steel for Mr. Trumpâs $400 million ballroom project, according
to two people familiar with the plans who spoke on condition of
anonymity to discuss sensitive and private conversations.
ArcelorMittal,
a Luxembourg-based firm that is the worldâs second-largest steel maker,
is providing steel for the structure of the ballroom project, the
people said. They said the steel was produced in Europe, where the bulk
of ArcelorMittalâs production is concentrated.
The
White House has not disclosed details of the donation, but Mr. Trump
said last October that he had been offered a donation of steel for the
ballroom valued at $37 million.
The presidentâs comments came just days before the White House made
adjustments to its tariffs that could benefit ArcelorMittal, by cutting
in half the tariffs applied to exports of automotive steel from its
Canadian plant.
Mr. Trump has boasted
that taxpayers are not on the hook for building his ballroom, the cost
of which has risen by 100 percent, according to the presidentâs own estimates. But the use of foreign steel for a ballroom built at the most recognizable building in the United States may anger domestic companies and unions that are trying to promote the U.S. industry.
It's funny how I've spent a few hours in Lubbock and the people were nice so for some reason this makes me sadder than if it had been a guy from El Paso just because I've never been to El Paso. Anyway: The Punisher/Snake hybrid meme is basically saying "I would like to shoot someone just to see what it feels like."
Pretty much. The snake specifically says: "I'm white and afraid of everything."

I used to bitch about paying a school tax since I donât have kids. Then someone asked me if I wanted kids to grow up and be idiot magats. I stopped bitching
