The US refers to its colonialism as “bringing Democracy.”

Johnson’s Trump-esque negotiating technique > May’s capitulation of the EU bill before negotiations and her firm stance that she wouldn’t let the UK leave the EU without a deal.

The Jetta has a surprisingly high payload capacity. Granted, it can be overdone....

Meh. I take much greater issue with the 1000+ flyovers a season at NFL games.

“Blaine” is still better than Maxwell Houser.

She’s a veteran, but also the strongest antiwar voice of all the candidates. Because of this, she gets a lot of smears from the establishment.
