Trump is a master con-man and it seems that only now some people are coming to the realization that much (all?) of what he says is lies.
It’s a shame that more do not realize this.
Graham posted this before Trump reminded him that his name (Graham) was also in the Epstein files.
Meanwhile Trump & his MAGA followers condemn what Biden, Obama and predecessors did erasing much of the societal progress that had been made. White (male) supremacy is thriving, once again because some voted for it & false promises while too many others did not vote, taking the progress for granted.

I would say today was more about luck than logic for me, after starting off with a green & a yellow with my first guess to make a wild guess & get four green on my second.🤷♂️
Very pleasantly surprised by getting a 3!😲

Ah, but Trump said the Iranians, themselves, bombed the school.🤷♂️
If you’re starting a list, I starting to think Jared Kushner’s name could be added to it.

Was totally off track initially (obviously), albeit all in my first guess were also connected (but wrong).

After starting off with a blank followed by one green, I eliminated one possibility in my third guess which, logically, resulted in my fourth guess but I picked the wrong one of two possible words. As a result, solved in 5, as well.🤷♂️

If that isn’t scary, I don’t know what is. Bessent is a tool, but not the sharpest tool in the drawer.
Such ideology has always been present in the US. It’s just that, beginning in 2015 during Trump’s first campaign, he gave voice to such ideology which prompted others to vocalize what they had previously somewhat stifled.
Accordingly such ideology will remain, but MAY once again be quieted somewhat.
Umm…that happened January 3 2026, long before the Olympics.🤷♂️
Needed to figure out where that yellow went so actually put it in two spots in my second guess which, luckily, resulted in three greens. Only a few words with the three green letters where they were. Got lucky & picked the right word to solve in 3.

Yup…and the fuel companies get richer.
Trump can’t…she knows too much.
The problem is that Trump has to be very careful how he treats both Bondi & Noem as they know too much. They know most, if not all, of the skeletons in Trump’s closet (or where the bodies are buried).
Umm, during COVID masking was done to protect others not the identities of the mask-wearers.
Not quite the same.
It took my wife 6 to solve today’s Wordle, as well…and she also grew up on a farm (but then she probably never did a lot of things I did as a farmboy)
…and neither Massie nor the US public will get the answers that are needed from Pam Bondi, regardless of what is done. If need be, she will take the 5th when she feels she needs to.
The Kurds are following the notion of “Once bit, (more than) twice shy” view of helping the US based on the US leaving them high & dry during other prior conflicts in the region.
…and I can’t blame them.

Are you certain she does not get to keep it in her new position?
And the opinions of Trump & Hegseth seem to be “In War…it happens.🤷♂️” and it does not matter who is killed whether those in the armed conflict or innocent members of the public including children.
I think that the bombing of the girls’ elementary school plus Hegseth’s comments right after it happened are so horrific that even the media which support Trump doesn’t want to talk about it.
I would hope the US media & citizens are so ashamed of the current administration they’re silent.

Once again, without any knowledge of the topic, Trump promises/orders something that is infeasible by those who would have to follow through on his promise/order. He often has not clue about what the highly potential consequences of his words or actions at be.
When I solved I had to chuckle at your comment because, growing up on a farm, I used the term many times.😉😂
Obviously based on what I had by my third guess it was a bit of a wild guess but, with the unused letters I had left, logic helped me solve in 4.
