This is crazy! All I can say is it reminds me of the memorable quote from Forrest Gump "Stupid is as Stupid does"

The Trump Administration Accidentally Texted Me Its War Plans
U.S. national-security leaders included me in a group chat about upcoming military strikes in Yemen. I didn’t think it could be real. Then the bombs started falling.

Here Come Two More Enemies of Science About to Lead Vital Agencies

I sent an email to the WH from a little used account expressing my embarrassment to how immature and unpresidential the Pee & VPee acted with Zelenskyy. I kept it low key but direct. I think a constant stream of polite but pointed emails might just make it through the blockade of ideolog interns.

Anyone else notice the gender of the belly dancers in Trumps Gaza video? One has to wonder if he was linked or giving a secret gender message of his own 😀

I tried to lose myself in an old Tom Clancy book yesterday. Diving into fiction is a great escape for me sometimes. But somehow the upstanding character of Jack Ryan just reminded me how far we have fallen in real life…

So Zika caved to the orange one because you know AI laws coming. Trump threatens Greenland and Panama. Expect Putin to ratchet up his war and watch Xi move into Taiwan.

I didn't realize Trump was elected VP???? What does that make Vance? Will someone ask Elon for me?

With almost 20,000 murders per year in The US it is amazing to see the law enforcement resources mobilized and press coverage given for a single murder either for political purposes (Laken Riley) or a one percenter ……
