Jared Kushner Touts Peace in the Middle East

He's talking about the Abraham Accords which has already shown progress with relations with Arab nations and is a pretty big deal when it will be fully implemented. It's hard to follow so I would assume those on the left will never be able to understand what it is all about.

"Emperor"

An emperor is the supreme male ruler of an empire. The title comes from the Latin word "imperator", meaning a commander or military leader. Emperors hold a rank that is usually higher than a king.

We all know that Humpy Trumpy is not an Emperor or a King.

Does Humpy Trumpy know that?

There were still Japanese soldiers living in caves in the pacific decades after the war was over and refused to accept that Japan surrendered.

But did they blow up any buildings in America? Would America have allowed the Japanese to enter the country and pray to their God, demand that its children honor their dietary restrictions, force them to wear their religious fantasy outfits?

FEMA Denies Federal Aid to Michigan After Massive Tornado Damage

if you decide not to insure your property, why should the government be paying you to replace it?

Jesus wept.

The government does not pay full REPLACEMENT costs. They only pay to make the home function safe or sanitary.

Most people are under insured or private insurance is now out of reach financially or has completely withdrawn from high-risk areas due to climate change

So it's for public safety, humanitarian necessity, economic stabilization, or plain old fashioned market failure.

Or maybe just ask Floridians. They know all about it.

But thanks for reminding us how much of a cruel despicable and uncaring human you are at the misfortune of others.

Iran has a somewhat similar structure in that political and religious authority are intertwined.

The zealotry of Iran's theocratic regime stems partly from its belief that it is acting and fighting in service to Allah.

Unless we can convince them their God is not real (fat chance) Trump has the problem of accomplishing his objectives but leaving their religious beliefs intact.

Blanche Won't Pledge DOJ Independence from Trump

I heard some of the Q&A with Blanche this journalist failed in the response to his answer. It's as if the journalist was provided with a list of questions and was determined to get through the list without digesting the implications of the response. In this regard, the journalist is acting like a reporter. Journalists need to be more lawyerly when questioning members of the Trump administration. Not only must they anticipate a hostile "witness" they must be prepared with incite full follow up questions. In this case, then Blanche said that he can't proclaim that he would be independent of the president because the president may propose that he prosecute criminals and by being independent, he (Blanche) would not be upholding his oath of office. The immediate follow up should have been to site the failed prosecutions of Trump's political enemies, the former Olympian accused of vandalism, etc. Blanche should have also been queried as to whether or not the DOJ has a review process to determine if a person should be prosecuted (which of course they do) and to follow up with a question as to whether or not Trump's political enemies were subjected to the same process.

Journalists doing these interviews need to "game out" the various questions and responses so that they are better prepared to deal with the "to clever by half" lawyers for the Trump administration.

Vance Says Low Oil Prices Is Top Goal in Iran War

This morning, 8/17/26, according to Bloomberg, spot price for WTI is up 32% from exactly six months ago, and the national average price for unleaded regular gas is up 39% in six months. For those who consume diesel, that's up 48% in the past six months. A whole lot of MAGA folk are getting what they voted for. Let's hope they feel good and patriotic about paying so much more at the pump--especially those "Farmers for Trump"...

IN THE MEANTIME, RELEASE THE TRUMP-EPSTEIN FILES...

Trump-Appointed Regulator OKs Banking License for Trump-Linked Crypto Firm

Cryptocurrencies have no business being anywhere near this country's banking system.

To repeat: cryptocurrencies are vehicles for naked speculation and criminal activity only--nothing more or less. Cryptocurrencies are NOT investment vehicles...

FEMA Denies Federal Aid to Michigan After Massive Tornado Damage

It is one thing to have an enemy across the ocean who one fears, it is quite another to have one such person sitting as the leader of one's own country. Frightening times, incompetence leading the way in all spheres of governance.

If Putin were sitting in the White House as Trump's sole advisor, things couldn't be handled more stupidly.

Fox Hits Trump with Crushing Polls

So Trump resigns just before the midterms, rather than after, and is pardoned by President Vance, and he hides from being in the public eye.
If he doesn't, the Republican Party is going to lose an amazing amount of political power, almost overnight.

Trump Scales Back Joint Military Exercises with S Korea

"Join us in the denuclearization of...Iran..."?
Iran, to be clear, had no nuclear weapons, whereas Israel has hundreds of nuclear weapons of mass destruction aimed straight at Iran.
South Korea needed to keep its forces at home...it has an implacable enemy just across its border.
Trump is the worst President in history...he takes aim at our allies and pretends to be great friends with our enemies.

Ossoff Blasts Trump’s Ballroom & Natalie Obsessions

Fun fact: Ms. Harp is of the same age as Melanie or Melody or Melania or whatever the name of Trump's disappearing wife is when she married Trump. Not as young as in the Epstein party days, but dementia blurs the lines.

Thats just fun money for their enjoyment to BLOW
