Trump Would Own Gaza
In this short interview, Donald Trump talks about his plans to take personal possession of Gaza.
I don’t recall seeing grift like this from a single other world leader.
See Bernie Sanders’ response below.

We’ve all heard the claim that decarbonizing our energy and transportation sectors will harm the economy. This narrative is critical to the far-right-wing’s claim that environmentalism is anti-capitalist, and, in particular, anti-American.
But does it make sense?
Granted, there are a great many “moving parts” to an analysis, but at a minimum we need to take into considering the cost of current-day and long-term environmental damage, including climate change (storms, droughts, wildfires, loss of land mass), ocean acidification, loss of biodiversity, increasing levels of disease and death from pollutants, and the wars that take place over oil.
Champagne corks are popping in shady businesses that deal with consumer finance.
Of course, the common American, especially those living paycheck-to-paycheck, will suffer greatly, but these folks were never of interest in the first place.
The 2024 election showed us how little the majority of woman care about their rights to an abortion. How any self-respecting woman could vote for a party that is actively refashioning the United States into The Handmaid’s Tale, I do not understand.
Good observation at left.
Outside of my own family, the only people whose grammar I correct are those who have asked me to. I have a childhood friend who accredits me for having raised his verbal SAT score. That feels good.
Call me a fool, but I keep thinking that something is eventually going to cross the line for Republicans.
Lord only knows what it will be. Apparently, an unelected billionaire taking control of the U.S. federal government doesn’t raise any red flags.
Here’s a short video for anyone wishing to get acquainted with Paula White-Cain, the head of Trump’s new White House Faith Office.
If this doesn’t scare you, nothing will.
It’s hard to know what to make of this. Of course there are honest Christian missionaries who are 100% sincere in their commitments to feeding hungry children, keeping violent criminals off the streets, etc. Apparently, Rev. Gabriel Salguero is one of them.
Yet it seems plain that, for every Salguero, there are thousands of MAGA Christian evangelicals that are joined at the hip to Trump for his white nationalism, absolute gun rights, homophobia, and appetite for punishing already marginalized populations.
Earlier this week, gasoline prices out here in Central California took a one-day jump of $0.14, the largest single-day hike in memory. Today, another $0.12, for a total of $0.26 or a 6.5% increase in three days.
Not sure exactly what this means, but it doesn’t look promising for the working class Americans who re-elected Trump and who live paycheck-to-paycheck. Egg prices are high, but people can substitute dozens of different foodstuffs. Won’t be as easy to substitute other fuels for gas and diesel.
The lower part of me says these idiots got exactly what they deserved, but the better part of me says I’m sorry that my country couldn’t have done a better job.
If we didn’t see it in his first term in office, we learned following his loss in 2020 that Trump is just as happy breaking the law as he is complying with it.
The woman at left seems to think that Trump actually cares about a legal way to accomplish his goals. Sorry, lady, but I have bad news for you.
