The US Embassy in South Africa received a list of 67,042 Afrikaners interested in refugee status in the US under Trump's plan to relocate them in the US. The list was given to the embassy by the South African Chamber of Commerce in the US, which said it became a point of contact for white South Africans asking about the program announced by the Trump administration last month. The chamber said the list does not constitute official applications. 2.7 million Afrikaners live in South Africa, which has a total population of 62 million. South Africa has the second highest rate of gun ownership in Africa, so these Afrikaners will fit in perfectly with America. Link: za.usembassy.gov read more
Russia launched three waves of Shahed-type drones on Odessa during a visit to the city by Czech President Petr Pavel on 20 Mar. Three people were injured during the attack and civilian infrastructure was damaged.

On Friday night Trumpf rescinded the security clearances of Kamala Harris, Hillary Clinton, several members of the Biden administration, and other prominent Democrats. Trumpf had already revoked Joe Biden's security clearance, and he also rescinded the security clearances of the entire Biden family. Previous victims of Godzilla's rampage: Antony Blinken, Adam Kinzinger, LTC Alexander Vindman (Ret), NYAG Letitia James, NY DA Alvin Bragg, Gen Mark Milley, Jake Sullivan, Elizabeth Cheney, Fiona Hill, Lisa Monaco, former US Ambassador to the Czech Republic Norman Eisen, and attorney Mark Zaid. Trumpf's vindictiveness impairs these people to work again in the USG as contractors, employees, or political figures. Mean-spirited Trumpf has no redeeming qualities and is America's Godzilla. read more
Multiple people were shot, at least one fatally, when gunfire erupted at a park in Las Cruces, NM at 2200 HRS, just north of the US-Mexico border. The number of casualties is still being counted and so far no arrests have been made. Anyone with information about Friday's mass shooting is asked to call police at (575) 526-0795. The attack sounds like a warzone firefight: twitter.com In an average year, 507 people die and 821 are wounded by guns in New Mexico, which has the 9th-highest rate of gun violence in the US. read more
"It's absolutely outrageous. It's sloppy, unprofessional," said former Trump campaign lawyer Joseph diGenova (80) whose private information was included in the release and pictured below. "It not only means identity theft, but I've had threats against me," said diGenova " a fixture in Republican and Washington legal circles who has fiercely defended Trump and has pounced on his critics on cable news. "In the past, I've had to report real threats against me to the FBI. There are dangerous nuts out there." Released JFK files: www.archives.gov read more
Yup. These deaths are why Putin supported the NRA and Trumpf loosened gun regulations, so Americans can kill each other off day by day with more efficiency than ISIS or the Taliban: ichef.bbci.co.uk
Update: Police report that three people were KIA and 15 WIA. The deceased victims were two 19-year-old men and a 16-year-old boy. The wounded ranged in age from 16 to 36 years old. America is a warzone and the annual casualty count will increase as more people acquire firearms with recently loosened regulations, the proliferation of ammunition vending machines, and rising economic inequalities. Governors may wish to deploy life-saving Army National Guard medics throughout their states to triage gunshot victims within the initial "Golden Hour": api.army.mil
Between 1 Jan and 28 Feb 2025, the American population underwent 58 mass shootings, resulting in 87 fatalities and 191 injuries.

This is all SOP for these vulture-oligarchs who want to increase the size of the wealthy in the US while increasing the size of the poor. With the trajectory that Trumpf catapulted the US towards, instead of a pyramid shape of classes in the future, America will have roughly an hourglass shape of two castes. A small middle caste of police officers, technicians, religious leaders, and soldiers will occupy the narrow chokepoint, or interface, between the "haves" at the top and the "have-nots" at the bottom. AI technologies with facial recognition surveillance will make ensure the police state runs efficiently. Opportunities for the masses at the bottom to escape poverty will be nearly impossible or non-existent: webstockreview.net

Is there anyone in Trumpf's cabinet without a nefarious, mendacious, or sordid past?

On 7 Feb 2025, Trumpf signed an Executive Order loosening federal restrictions on firearms sales. America obviously needs more weapons on the streets. Perhaps the US will reach the 50,000 firearm-related deaths per year under Trumpf's Reign of Terror. So far, 48,000 deaths in one year is America's highwater mark according to the CDC: www.whitehouse.gov
