Much as I would not dare to predict the consequences of this war, I do think we can summarize it thusly so far: A smart and evil man manipulated a stupid and evil man into a war against a fanatical and evil regime.

US ex-pat, living in the UK. Just got a STEP security alert: "The conflict between Israel and Iran has resulted in disruptions to travel and periodic closure of airspace across the Middle East." Funny, no mention of the US's part in the 'conflict'.

Given that most, if not all MAGA merch is made in China, I'll be really curious to see what happens to their pricing and availability 😁

Florida: Juan Carlos Lopez-Gomez (20) is being held in the Leon County Jail, charged with illegally entering Florida as an “unauthorized alien." Lopez-Gomez is a U.S. Citizen, born in the USA. He showed his U.S. birth certificate in court. The judge held him in jail anyway. This is Fascism.

You saw the video of the ICE agent breaking a car window near the border, right? He wasn’t an ICE agent. He’s the founder of Veterans on Patrol, a FAR-RIGHT MILITIA patrolling the border for migrants. They’re basically deputizing militias to act as federal agents. This is dangerously out of control

By the time major media agree that it's a dictatorship, it will be so far along that they'll be afraid to call it a dictatorship.

Every retailer in America should display the original price of an item along with the new tariffed price. Let it sink in for the slowest in the herd. Tariffs are a tax. You're paying for them.

Has everyone in charge at Columbia simply lost their marbles? I really cannot wrap my mind around their dereliction of duty to their students. If my kid went there I would sure feel some kind of way.

Europe needs to understand that the way Trump is treating Ukraine over the new mineral deal (trying to rob them blind but give Ukr no security) is how he will deal with Europe as a whole if he sees them as weak. The only way to deal with Trump is defiance--not bridge building.

I want you to understand this is happening in our name and we know most of these men committed no crimes. One is a professional soccer player who was tortured in Venezuela and was working through asylum in the U.S. ICE shipped him for his Real Madrid tattoo and a picture throwing rock & roll horns.
