The US has suspended operations at their Kuwait embassy so American citizens there are on their own. Not that Donald Trump will care, alive or dead, Americans mean nothing to him unless he can profit from them.
How very presidential
The overdue firing of Kristi Noem will have no bearing on the continued plans for unwanted warehousing of human beings across the country.
The spotlight should focus on these warehouses (de facto concentration camps) during Markwayne Mullin's confirmation hearing.

1984 was meant to be a warning, not a damn instruction manual.
The ironic thing about the right-wingers who love to quote Orwell are the ones who are doing the exact shit that he warned everyone about.
March is #WomensHistoryMonth.
Before 1974, women needed permission from their spouse to get a credit card or loan.
In 1972, Rep Bella Savitsky Abzug introduced the Equal Credit Opportunity Act prohibiting lending institutions from discriminating on the basis of sex or marital status.

He seems pretty sensitive whenever someone confronts him with evidence that Putin might not be our friend. Even when Fox brings it up.

Don’t forget Social Security and Medicare. He swore — repeatedly, explicitly — that he’d never cut them.

who spend a higher share of their income on the necessities of life. That’s you. The billionaires in his cabinet can absorb and even profit from Trump’s inflation; you can’t.
And while all this is happening, the national debt keeps exploding. It ballooned by $7 trillion during his first term.
Tariffs are taxes collected at the border and paid by American importers, that are then passed on to American consumers like you and me.
The people most exposed to rising prices on clothes, appliances, groceries, and cars are working-class families

And then there’s the tariffs, which he told you China would pay. But China isn’t paying: you are.

That’s the national healthcare program that covers roughly one in five Americans,
You were also promised lower drug prices. Remember that? Trump made it a centerpiece of his campaign pitch. He looked straight into the camera and said he’d take on Big Pharma. But the pharmaceutical industry is making

And now The Washington Post is reporting that Putin is

Not a populist or a Washington outsider: the most powerful oligarch alive, whose source of wealth came from Obama bailing out Tesla and who now gets tens of billions in annual government contracts.
Billionaire hustler Scott Bessent. Hedge fund managers and Wall Street insiders as far as the eye can see.
And then he handed the core agencies of the federal government — with no vote, no vetting, no accountability to anyone — over to Elon Musk, the single richest human being on the planet.
You were told Trump would “drain the swamp” of corruption in Washington DC. Instead, as Marjorie Taylor Greene can tell you, Donald Trump has built the most corrupt, billionaire-stuffed cabinet (13 of them!) in American history. Epstein-buddy Howard Lutnick.

So did I and millions of other Americans. The difference is who we trusted to do it. Let’s talk about what actually happened.
Your kids can’t afford the house they’ve been dreaming of for years. The politicians in Washington kept promising you things and delivering nothing; in fact, Republicans even took away your Medicaid and food stamps as well as
Dear MAGA voter,
I’m not writing this to mock you. I’m writing because you were lied to. And it wasn’t by the people you were told to hate, but by the man you trusted the most.
You were pissed off when you voted in 2024. Honestly, rightfully angry. Your town lost its factory.
“Like I said, some people will die. When you go to war, some people will die.”
That’s what the President of the United States is saying to the American people.
He won’t be hurt by a retaliatory attack or high gas prices. But you will — and that’s a sacrifice he’s willing to make.
Hardly worth mentioning how extraordinarily DUMB!!
And I think she believes it!
