Trump fires Kristi Noem as Homeland Security Secretary President appoints Noem to β€˜Special Envoy for The Shield of the Americas’ and nominates Senator Markwayne Mullin to replace her as cabinet secretary starting March 31

FIRED - DHS ICE Barbie and puppy killer Kristi Noem terminated from her career after Congress said they will impeach her. She is still criminally accountable for kidnappings and murders of innocent people.

It's the Israeli lobby ordering their servants to do as they are told. We need to immediately cut off Israel and permanently ban any association with the rogue nation.

US soldiers who died in the Iran war remembered for their service and devotion to their families Four of the six U.S. soldiers killed in the Iran war have been identified by the Pentagon as members of the Army Reserve.

I know the DUI Hire is a fucking moron, but China and Russia have spies and told Iran where to target, including undefended soft targets at Kuwaiti ports where U.S. military members are seen in uniform.

It’s looking increasingly likely that Kristi Noem and Lewandowski funneled almost 200 million in government money to a company that is run by her friend and that nobody can give an address for.

Oh, and it was 8 days old when it was awarded the contract.

House Speaker Johnson says β€˜We’re not at war right now’ amid Trump’s barrage on Iran Johnson says he opposes a resolution to rein in Trump’s military power amid the campaign in Iran

Mike Johnson might have had more success with that argument if Trump and Hegseth weren't still saying that we are at war and the U.S. Navy wasn't actively sinking ships at sea.

And just like that we are no longer a nation divided by left and right, we are now a nation divided be those who want to fight wars for Israel and those who just want peace and to be able to afford their bills and health insurance.

Trump wastes no time using Iran war to help federalize midterms | Opinion If Trump were really concerned with foreign countries attempting to influence our elections, he would be beefing up security, not scaling it back.

Trump already saying elections should be canceled due to Iran War, forgetting we had open and free Presidential elections during the American Civil War, WWI, WWII, Vietnam, Desert Storm, Balkins War, Afghanistan and Iraq War.

James Talarico declares victory in Texas Democratic Senate primary as GOP contest goes to a runoff NBC News projects Talarico will advance to the general election, while Sen. John Cornyn and state Attorney General Ken Paxton compete in a Republican primary runoff.

Please note that combined, as of right now, there are ~100k more votes on the democratic side with 2% fewer ballots counted. I don’t know how much you can read into it, but that seems significant, especially in #Texas and especially in the most expensive primary ever.

Kash Patel Fired Entire Team of Iran Experts Right Before Trump’s War They were let go during a purge of people who investigated Donald Trump for allegedly mishandling classified documents.
