Republicans are getting fluent in Trumpspeak:

Here is the deal
Eating the tarriffs
Taking up the matter

This is a military wife calling out Mike Johnson on C-SPAN this morning
Yesterday Johnson had the temerity to announce publicly that he will NOT call the House back to pass emergency pay for our troops
Can't imagine why he thought taking callers on C-SPAN would go well for him..

No, Harry, you fail again to read and understand. In a subgroup of moderate-severe COVID-19 patients, without any prior immunity (1st wave!), some may take a little longer to fully recover lymphocyte numbers (particularly B cells) in the blood. No prior numbers known, age is different, etc.

A woman who was shot multiple times by U.S. Customs and Border Protection agents did not ram them with her car and had her weapon stored in her purse at the time of the incident, according to her lawyer, contradicting accounts by the Department of Homeland Security.

"Miller is taking a "hands-on" role in investigating the funding of nonprofits and educational institutions and is sharing recommendations from Attorney General Pam Bondi and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent with Trump and other top advisers, the first White House official said."

President Donald Trump's threatened crackdown on the finances and activities of liberal non-profits and groups opposed to his agenda is a multi-agency effort with top White House aide Stephen Miller playing a central role, according to officials.

It's going according to plan. The objective of the Hegseth-Trump double act at Marine Corps Base Quantico was to put the fear of bejeesus into the senior command: put them on notice that they are either with Trump-MAGA or against.

Unless they act soon, the window of opportunity will close.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s latest firing of a top Navy official injected a fresh wave of fear into the Pentagon over the cost of speaking up and who might be next.

Hegseth’s firing of Navy official compounds ‘culture of fear’ inside Pentagon

No need to whitewash the past of the WaPo opinion page when you criticize its current content. George Will has been a WaPo columnist for half a century! And WaPo has been adding pro-Trump columnists since 2016.

Israël wil geen staakt-het-vuren totdat het kabinet vanavond akkoord heeft bereikt.
Daarin liggen de extreemrechtse ministers Smotrich en BenGvir dwars.
Als die uit het kabinet stappen heeft premier Netanyahu geen meerderheid meer.
Hij wordt dan zeker vervolgd voor corruptie

C-SPAN CALLER: We just I guess resolved Israel and Gaza. What about the war that is being caused here in America when our president tells the military to shoot Americans, use the cities as war zones?

MIKE JOHNSON: I have no idea where that's coming from. It's obviously a misleading talking point.

Another temporary “Gaza Peace Deal” has been achieved. Hamas and Israel have agreed to cease fighting. In theory Israel should also cease bombing civilians. After more than 60,000 people were killed by Israel, Gaza will be allowed to attempt to rebuild again.

Yesilgoz staat er nog steeds achter dat de #VVD de #fvd motie steunde om antifa tot een terroristisch organisatie te verklaren. Antifa is anti fascisme. Yesilgoz: "En dan moet ik ze ongemoeid laten als je vervolgens anti-democratische bewegingen hebt? Nee."🧐Tegen fascisme zijn is ondemocratisch?

New in PN: Trump is the insurrection

"It’s a wild assault on state sovereignty, bringing us ever closer to the brink of civil war. This is despotism, & whatever chaos & violence is about to be unleashed lies squarely on the robed shoulders of Roberts, Thomas, Alito, Gorsuch, Kavanaugh, & Barrett."

Trump is the insurrection

And the Supreme Court's conservatives are his shock troops.
