This time start with their land convoys, that are reported to be congested. If that doesn't work, start taking out their dams, bridges, power and fresh water resources.

If this is done, Iran will undoubtedly attack oil "production" infrastructure rather than just oil "storage" or "transit" infrastructure. Oil production will plummet and whether or not the Strait of Hormuz is navigable will become irrelevant; there will be no oil to put into tankers to transit the strait! Oil production in ME will be set back years.

Creep Glasses

The concept is of vision assist is a great thing. They can be viewed as the visual equivalent of a hearing aid. Some visually impaired people may truly benefit from the technology. It's a shame that perverts have given them such a bad name. Laws need to catch up with the tech to treat visual "recording/transmission" the same as audio recording i.e. the two parties have to agree.

If you're telling the truth and doing right, things tend to effortlessly fall into place to support your efforts. If you're lying and doing wrong, you must be "perfect" in manufacturing --- to support your efforts. Anything less than "perfect" will eventually unravel and reveal you for the lying scoundrel that you are.

If the Gulf States want to end their misery, they will make peace with Iran and Trump will declare victory and bring the troops home.

Poll: Trump Has Prioritized His Personal Business Interests

And he is going to do EVERYTHING possible to protect those interests. Those interests will become threatened when/if Democrats take control of either either house of Congress. He is going to do EVERYTHING (legal and illegal) possible to prevent that from happening. Illegal immigration will be the rubric for all of his shenanigans. It started with illegals receiving mail in ballots. That failed so next it will be chaos at the polls to prevent illegals from voting followed by the seizures of ballots because illegals voted so that the vote can't be certified at the county level. Finally it will be failure to certify the vote at the federal level! All along the way, he has the hope that there will be massive demonstrations which he will declare to be violent so that he can call out the National Guard and declare Martial Law.

This will be a rough election! If he takes those actions and Democrats STILL prevail, the FIRST thing they must do is impeach and convict his butt while passions are still red hot.

That so few pay so much is a symptom of wealth inequality. If you want more people to pay more taxes, pay wage earners more efing money!!!

Because it would cost too much to rebuild them.

My thoughts exactly!!!

I guess he's finally given up on weaponizing the USPS.

Great job former KGB-ers and dictator Putin.

At some point when Trump is no longer the "useful idiot", Putin will be compelled to gloat about his achievement.

If there is any moment in time that highlights the need to get off of fossil fuels; this is it. There have been signals in the past that went unheeded but now it is inescapable. As Europe reconfigures it's energy infrastructure, instead of looking east for fuel, it should be looking south; to Africa. Spend money there to build out the fossil fuel capabilities of African countries until it can rid itself of its dependence on oil from the middle east and the USA. It will take time but it won't happen if you don't start.

There never has been a liar of the scope and scale as Trump. This was known PRIOR to his re-election yet millions of people believed him. Why? Now they are complaining about being deceived? A little self reflection might be in order.

They don't realize that allowing him to do this would allow a democrat to ban them.

Operating under the premise that "what goes around comes around", a phrase that the vast number of Americans are likely to be very familiar with, I can't help but believe that these capitulators think that he is not going away and are willing to bet their future well being and that of their company. While the first tasks of the next democratic president must be to get the economy working for all Americans, the next task has to be rebuilding international relationships; starting with getting rid of the tariffs. Somewhere in that vast list of things to undo must be to make capitulators pay. Start anti-trust investigations on some of these shady mergers and acquisitions. Put through tax increases on the wealthy. Examine all of the "no bid" contracts with a fine tooth comb. Finally, but still high in priority, is tearing down the monuments he built to himself.

Hey Cassidy, you don't get to redeem yourself on the way out after having voted to put these creeps into office in the first place!

He would be a good candidate; Democratic governor from a southern, red state. Would appeal to a lot of moderates; red and blue. Whitmer is toast given her "cozying" up to Trump. Moore and Pritzker would also make very good candidates. Kamala's time has come and gone. Emanuel doesn't stand a chance in spite of his trip to Israel to denounce the current Israeli leadership regarding Gaza. Also, his tenure as mayor of Chicago left a bad taste in the mouths of many rank and file democrats in Chicago that probably extends outside of Chicago as well.

I guess living a life of trying to put your name on stuff sets you up to continue that while POTUS. Trump seems to be obsessed with his legacy which, in my mind, helps account for his focus on the Ball Room, Arch, etc., etc. I know the clock is running out on his presidency but I also wonder if he has received a difficult medical diagnosis?

Trump seems to have an emotional need for people to ask him personally for stuff as though that stuff was his alone to give.

Russia Seizes Assets of Swiss Food Giant Nestle and Three French Firms

Nestle should immediately put in a lien on any Russian assets held by Swiss and other banks.

Rep. Maria Elvira Salazar (R-Fla.) forcefully pushed back against President Donald Trump's deportation agenda in a campaign ad released on Thursday, a rare rebuke of the White House's aggressive immigration policy from inside the Republican Party.

To little, to late. I guess all of those Cuban ex-pats in FL thought that Trump was going after those OTHER hispanics; not them. I guess they FAFO. Now they are pissed. Karma is a Bitc.

So they're mandating HORMONE treatments? I thought that was out?

In those states where DHS has violated state laws, arrest warrants need to be issued for the individuals committing the crimes.

Trump is desperate and will go to the extremes to ensure that neither the HOR or the Senate flips to democrats. If either of them flips, all of his corruption will be brought to the forefront and, in spite of the SCOTUS giving him immunity on some "ways of being presidential", it was not a blank check.

Trump v. United States (2024): Summary of Impact

The ruling makes it substantially more difficult to prosecute a former president"and forbids prosecutors from using protected official acts as evidence to help prove a private-conduct crime", it did not grant a president total immunity from ordinary criminal law. The distinction hinges entirely on whether the alleged criminal conduct was an "official" or "unofficial" act, a determination that lower courts must evaluate on a case-by-case basis.

Or are you in the Elvis realm that seems to prefer peanut butter with bananas?

Peanut butter with bananas makes a tasty snack. Drizzle a bit of honey over it and it's even better!

Yummy

One of the "good" things about Trump's time in office is that there will be legal opinions that address many of the loop holes in our laws. Also, it will have identified the loop holes that Trump was able to wiggle through and as a result of their identification, legislation can be enacted to close those loop holes. Identification of the loop holes may be Trump's most lasting legacy.

Companies that are benefitting from the ILLEGAL activities of this president have to be aware that it will likely all come undone when the next democrat becomes president.

What one president does without the approval of Congress, another president can undo. So, enjoy it while you still can.
