Of course I am an American. I will always support my country.

Gerald Ashford

This operation is no different than any operation conducted by any president dating back to the Truman administration

VoxLesPaul

Watch the video of rejoicing Venezualans, and the wisdom of this decision is self evident. We saw the same thing when Saddam Hussein was deposed.

Fred

And how did that turn out?

Zaos Gonzolez

All commies deserve the same.

Eric Smith

Absolutely! It's wonderful finally having a president who is trying to do every single thing he promised the American people in the campaign.

Maduro's drug trade, is an "Act of War" against the US. The military strikes and arrest of Maduro, are Self-Defense. There will be more, and more American lives will be saved.

42%

No. It's an act of war.

If you elect a criminal who thumbs his nose at our laws, you can expect him to ignore international law as well. I can't believe in this country elected him the first time. Doing it a second time shows you how ignorant people are in our country. It's embarrassing.

Peggy Carney

It's a act of war, Trump just wants the oil there. He is the criminal.

Max

Biden put a 25 million dollar bounty on Maduro.

Max

Maduro's drug trade is an "Act of War." You have that part correct.

Fred

Remember when we were told we would be welcomed as liberators in Iraq ... This is criminal. DON'T FORGET ABOUT EPSTEIN!!!

Been a Mizzou fan for over 60 years. Just Missouri being Missouri ...

Fat Guy Outdoors

You extended a coach who's record would of gotten him fired at a top football school. As long as just going to a bowl game is good enough Mizzou will be fine. If you want championships then you have a lot of changes that needs to happen.

Robert Oldham

Poor offense and poor offensive play calling

Ed Pesek

They didn't beat any good team this year

Harris Nelson

We never won against the ranked teams. Now we made our head coach one the highest paid in the college.

Ashley Chase

Mizzou football fans and boosters need to make a decision. Are we as content as fans with the job Drinkwitz is doing. If winning 8, 9, or 10 wins a season is good enough, the keep giving Drinkwitz and his staff contract extensions.

Trump and his goons in every state in every department are running it into the ground acting like it's the best thing ever and it's not. People are suffering now more then his first term or even during Biden term

Toasty

> "Trump and his goons" Goons? It's 2025. Trump is a lot of things, but comparing he and his team continued success to a childish name, you need better sources of your insults. For example, stop using The Rolling Stone as a primary news source.

Max

Then, you prefer the 9% inflation for 4 straight years, instead of 2.9%. Where did you get your economics degree?

Sara Kalinowski

We're too close to 2026 and it'll take a long time to reverse.

Chris Lyle

Fred

That was during a period of worldwide inflation ... and we were actually doing better than most other advanced countries. Inflation is higher now than when Biden left office.

Fred

Compare November 2025 to November 2026 ... roughly same and 2026 figure was held down by the government shutdown. Let's check back at this time next year and you try to explain away the recession.

Max

Inflation is less than 1/3rd of when Biden was in office. Fix your calculator.

Max

Biden tactics were destroying the world's economies.

Max

The U.S. dollar dominates the world economy due to its role as the primary reserve currency, backed by the massive U.S. economy, unmatched financial market liquidity, and historical inertia since the 1944 Bretton Woods system. It facilitates 88% of global exchange transactions, 54% of trade

Jamie Kochert

On a fixed income and everything is more expensive.
