Highly recommend Rebecca Solnitβs new book:
Leaving Dems to deal with the detritus.
"You don't liberate people at the barrel of a gun. Have we learned nothing from Iraq or Afghanistan? All we seem to have learned is from Gaza. Israel has learned that you can bomb hospitals & schools with impunity."

This morning, Trump rolled out a new, made up job for Kristi Noem, head of βShield of the Americas.β
Noem is essentially getting a paid vacation for the rest of his term to keep her from leaking stories about him.
So far, the second Trump administration has asked the Supreme Court to take βemergencyβ action on its behalf 33 times β a dramatic increase compared to past administrations. Hereβs why this is a problem: bit.ly/4cybln3

Remember the scandal of Trump wanting to host the G8 at Doral? He had to actually back down.
Today, he has the βShield of the Americasβ conference at Doral with all the pomp and circumstance, charging the entire 2 day event to you and me while making a profit for himself.
Not a word from Dems.

Reverend Al Sharpton has sharp, yet necessary, words for the crowd at the memorial for Rev. Jesse Jackson.
"Don't sit here so holy and sanctified and act like you have no assignment yourself."
And that his cronies who own defense-related stocks are going to β¦ make a killing.
This is one of the most jaw dropping moments of Trumpβs presidency. Up there with brainstorming about injecting bleach and shining light up orifices to cure COVID.

Ya, then Dems inherit a war and all the other disasters.
DHS nominee Markwayne Mullin is one of the most active stock-traders in the Senate β and violated the STOCK Act against insider trading as recently as last August.
He currently holds stock in L3Harris, which has millions in contracts with ICE and FEMA.
The grift continues.
"Trump is not the architect of the Iran war, only its vehicle."
