The president exists in a dystopian fantasy world with no connection to reality

A once great American City, Los Angeles, has been invaded and occupied by Illegal Aliens and Criminals. Now violent, insurrectionist mobs are swarming and attacking our Federal Agents to try and stop our deportation operations — But these lawless riots only strengthen our resolve. I am directing Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, and Attorney General Pam Bondi, in coordination with all other relevant Departments and Agencies, to take all such action necessary to liberate Los Angeles from the Migrant Invasion, and put an end to these Migrant riots. Order will be restored, the Illegals will be expelled, and Los Angeles will be set free. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

This is an incredible document in which #Trump claims ICE protests “constitute a form of rebellion against the authority of the Government of the United States” and authorizes Pete Hegseth to deploy “regular Armed Forces” against protesters—anywhere in the US. (Notably, CA isn’t mentioned anywhere.)

Israeli lawmaker Avigdor Lieberman alleged Netanyahu is now supporting a new ISIS-affiliated militia to counter Hamas. Sources told Haaretz last week that an armed group tied to Yasser Abu Shabab has recently begun operating in southern Gaza.

As part of the red-carpet treatment, Saudi officials arranged for a fully operational mobile McDonald’s unit to accompany President Trump during his stay.

According to local reports, the unit was set up near the Saudi Royal Court.
