While Mike Lee and Steve Daines' Senate Natural Resources Committee amendment to the budget reconciliation package mandates the sale of up to 3.3 million acres of public land, what most people miss is that it also authorizes the sale of 258 million acres. That's 40 percent of all public land:

Hurricane season starts June 1 and if you live in a Gulf state, you need to watch this. It’s worse than you might think.
The few employees still left at FEMA admit: they are not prepared. Not enough staff. Not enough supplies. Not enough leadership. Plan accordingly.

Yeah. If under Biden some country in the Pacific had declared an embargo on all shipments from China to the U.S., that'd be considered a five-alarm fire and an impending economic disaster, and we'd send the Navy to end it.
But Trump's doing it for fun so it gets sanewashed.

The White House now says the total tariff rate on China is 145% because of the 20% "levied in response to the fentanyl crisis". No one can afford this and all the headlines about "a 90-day pause on tariffs" are inaccurate. www.cnbc.com/2025/04/09/s...

This is where this is headed if we do not stop them now.
Trump says he’ll “have to see what the courts say,” but that’s not how his administration is operating now. They act first, rendering people people to foreign prisons, then claim they have no jurisdiction to get them back.

It’s still hard to believe the simple fact that this is all self-imposed. Everything that’s happening right now wasn’t the result of some foreign adversary destroying the country. We did this all to ourselves by electing the dumbest motherfucker to ever rule a nation.
