Going to be very hard for many of us Americans to sleep tonight knowing the madmen of Iran downed one of our planes & we’ve got a fellow American missing.
Every shade of wrong, scary, & unbelievable.

Trump’s “reciprocal” tariffs were explicitly imposed to reduce the US trade deficit, but it reached an all-time high (in real terms) in 2025. Check out the new analysis from Cato Institute scholars.

#JustinFox and #NathanCavanaugh are nincompoops
PBS News@NewsHour
A federal judge has ruled that deposition videos of two former Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) staffers can remain online, rejecting claims that potential embarrassment outweighed public interest in the case. The former DOGE employees, Justin Fox and Nathan Cavanaugh, testified that they used OpenAI’s ChatGPT to identify grants from the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) they believed violated President Donald Trump’s executive order targeting “radical and wasteful” diversity, equity and inclusion programs. Determinations of which grants to cut were made by feeding short summaries of projects into ChatGPT and asking the chatbot if there was any connection to DEI, according to discovery materials released by the American Historical Association in March as part of a lawsuit against the NEH. The DOGE employees appeared to rely on the technology to compile a list of 1,477 grants to terminate, nearly every active award made during the Biden administration. The cuts clawed back more than $100 million, nearly half the federal agency’s budget, throwing organizations into turmoil and forcing some projects to shut down.

@GuntherEagleman You're right. The downing of the F-15 by a totally decimated and obliterated opponent is a huge plus for the Trump admin. Trump is totally sane and measured, and a military genius, and he is not at all reckless, bombastic, an idiot, or in decline.

CNN says this downed F-15 is a "huge blow" to the Trump admin.
They can't go FIVE SECONDS without bashing Trump, even as CSAR operations are underway.
Pray for our troops, hate the media, Love America.

@gelliottmorris @MeidasTouch Lots of folks say they hate both parties, but never get off their ass to find candidates the DO want. They are happy to just decide between the two, or just sit out.
