Poster with blue sky and white clouds background with the text: Trump wants to be buried in Arlington Cemetery. I for one wholeheartedly support this. How does Friday work for everyone?

Because of the BILLIONS we send to Israel, they have
FREE HEALTHCARE
FREE COLLEGE
FREE DAYCARE
Americans are dying and going bankrupt but Israel has a superior quality of life
The article mentions a sexual abuser from Ohio. He was described as having grey hair and very BIG EARS. Guess what very rich associate of Jeffrey Epstein is from Ohio and has very BIG EARS.

Fox News: โWe regret showing outdated footage of Trump at the dignified transfer not wearing a baseball hat, thus failing to honor the fallen by informing our viewers that the hat, normally $55, is on sale at the MAGA merch store for $29.99 for a limited time only.โ

Wisdom from Senator Tom Tillis: โGrima Wormtongue (the Stephen Miller of Lord of the Rings) is an advisor to King Theoden. He uses whispers and false flattery to control the King's decisions, all while secretly serving Saruman. He is a classic example of a sycophantโฆโ

Watch the Prime Minister of Japan react to Prime Minister Carney. #cdnpoli
Shock and delight as Carney surprises her speaking Japanese.
Ukraine is sending thousands of these drone interceptors to protect US air bases in the Gulf.
The country once told to โsay thank youโ is now exporting the future of air defense.
Turns out Ukraine had the cards all along.

Russia gives targeting intelligence to Iran. American service members die.
Trump lifts oil sanctions on Russia. Russia is better able to finance its war against the USA. More Americans die.
Trump is a Russian asset and traitor to the USA.
Two idiots who are out of their depth
President Obama nailed it today: Everyday you wake up to something you thought was impossible.
Obama: "We are living in a time where it can be hard to hope. Each day we wake up to some new assault on our democratic institutions. Another setback to the idea of the rule of law ... but this man - Rev. Jesse Jackson - inspires us to take a harder path ... bc if we don't step up, nobody else will"
Graph of award probability of R35 and R01 from NIH factbook as a function of review rank percentile. As is apparent, 2025 is a significant departure, with lower award probabilities at all scores <40 and significant departures from norm, where even being in the top 10% is no longer a nearly certain indicator of success. Data source: https://report.nih.gov/nihdatabook/report/302
The data is in: the NIH goalposts have shifted.
What were once almost certain fundable scores have become coin flips and what used to be likely grants have become aspirational, leading to fewer awards.
Another manifestation of how HHS policies have led to fewer awards and less science.
Screenshot of an X post by Dan Scavino reading, โHappening Now in the Oval Office at the @WhiteHouse. God Bless the USA!โ with prayer, heart, U.S. flag, and eagle emojis. Below is a photo inside the Oval Office showing Donald Trump seated at the Resolute Desk while a large group of men in suits stand around him in a circle with heads bowed and hands extended in prayer. American flags, gold drapes, and framed portraits are visible in the room.
โIran is run by religious fanatics.โ
Soon, CBS, CNN, and Fox will fill their programs with reports of record grain harvests from the midwest --reenacting Soviet state television news during the 1960s.
Letโs go full Putin fanboy and call the war a special military operation.
