Seriously, we owe it to the soldier who died to ask ALL the questions. And to the one clinging to life. And all others serving at home and abroad, as well as every American as we too are invested in decisions that hinge on a hastily formed narrative that suits one specific agenda.

Nice solidarity here when Greene calls on an American: "I'm an American journalist, and I'd like to hear your answer to what she's asking."
Here's Marjorie Taylor Greene literally telling a British reporter to "go back to your country" and berating her for trying to ask a question.

"We don't give a CRAP about your opinion."

After yesterday's events in the White House, Haltbakk Bunkers, one of Norway's largest marine fuel companies, appears to have announced that it will no longer refuel American Navy vessels.

Haltbakk has called on other European companies to refuse service to American forces.

I have never seen a statement from a group *confirming* that it is in fact welcoming convicted criminals at its event. To be fair, I avoid paying attention to NAMBLA.

Glad this is the team with root access to government systems and that has designs on creating online systems.
Scoop: The databases powering DOGE.gov are insecure, and people outside the government have already pushed their own updates to the site to prove it:

"We have a big pizza pie of powers and the president holds the knife," is not stunning constitutional scholarship.

He has a concept of a war crime.
Reporter: And if they don't want to leave, how are you going to force them, Mr. President?

Trump: Oh, they're going to be great. They're going to be very happy.
