I've been reluctant to condone the appointment of Rubio as Secy of State, but, so far he has held his own and he did well in his response to Brennan.

This is the second time that she's been knocked down; first by Vance and now by Rubio. 

So far the score is 2-0.  happy77

I don't think that Rubio has the 'in depth and worldly knowledge' needed to be Secy of State.  So far though so good.  I can't actually say that he impresses me, but so far he's holding his own.  Right now IMHO he seems a little wet behind the ears.  Hopefully with time that will change.

IF he should begin to falter, he can be replaced and voila -- Trump got rid of one of the biggest RINO's in the Senate.

If the Trump Administration is concerned about "political repression" and "persecution of minorities", why doesn't it criticize Putin's Russia?

Putin killed opposition leader Navalny one year ago (after having him jailed), and Russia jails or kills gays.

Does the Trump Administration only criticize Europe, while Russia - which it seems eager to embrace - gets a free pass?

FreeRussia is controlled by a small group of anti-free-speech Nazis - no wonder its donations are down!!

Apparently so, since they're getting ready to sell out Ukraine to Putin.

The generally ignored truth is that Trump's "deals" usually suck.

Moulton: VP Vance Used ‘Same Language that Hitler Used to Justify the Holocaust’

Representative Seth Moulton (D-MA) said Monday on “MSNBC Reports” that Vice President JD Vance’s Munich Security Conference address used “some of the same language that Hitler used to justify the Holocaust.”

Seth Moulton (D-MA) is a lying POS.

Comparing Vance to Hitler?  That just wreaks of sheer desperation by the leftists.  The MSM doesn't exactly have much credibility remaining.

The AfD/nazi comparison is laughable.  Imagine the nazis saluting a lesbian in an interracial relationship.

So @JDVance goes to Germany and says free speech is good.

CBS News responds first by blaming the Holocaust on free speech and then positively promoting Germany's laws that fine and imprison people for mean tweets.

Who exactly is the authoritarian in this?

No doubt. That must explain why they took Jews' typewriters away from them: because the Nazis really encouraged everyone to communicate freely with one another.  :laugh:
