Now they will be senators. But that is not even the biggest news. Just a few hours ago, biden officials informed us that after almost 65 years of working to build a nuclear weapon, the nation of iran may be just weeks away from getting a bomb. After 65 years of trying. What a coincidence. You all ready know how that story is going to end. Another pointless foreign war. Trillions spent, many dead. The United States gaining g nothing. We have seen that a lot and itt happening again. Joe biden just sent american troops to syria. You didnt know that . Yep. Hours after he became president , american soldiers crossed into the nation of syria. Sending them to syria was one of the first things joe bidenti di. The media forgot to even mention that.

Hell find a community filled with apprehension, targeted byjihadist extremists, and subject to persistent discrimination and sectarian violence.
