My heart aches for theses families. But doesn't Kerr County have any building codes? Inspectors? Geomorphologists? How did these cabins ever get approved? And why did they put the littlest girls at the river's edge? Even I know a bend in the river is the most vulnerable spot.
Texas Floods Analysis Shows Camp Mystic Cabins in Hazard Zones
An analysis of flood maps shows that several buildings, including those where children were sleeping, were in known hazard zones. A $5 million expansion in 2019 did nothing to alleviate the problem.

The reason the Trump administration is taking away money from Columbia is no more about antisemitism than the Trump tariffs on Canada are about fentanyl.
Defunding Of Universities By Trump Isn't About Antisemitism, Although Campus Antisemitism Exists Aplenty
It's about the rise of the religious right and the John Birchers, who have always hated science and education, in the GOP

Bring on the dictatorship, Mr Gutfeld.

"Maybe a guy in a robe in D.C. can follow all the protocols, but Trump is the "f-ing" president of the United States who protects 300 million plus people. He is a leader who does not have the luxury of opening up his little books...Roberts, shut the "f" up."

Kari Lake likely signed the death cert for VOA when she proclaimed she'd use it to "combat the rise of Marxism & Communism overseas.” This must have infuriated Vladimir Putin! In the New World Order being forged by Trump and Putin, communism is not the enemy – liberal elites and globalists are.
The Kari Lake
There is a desperate need for media to combat the rise of Marxism & Communism overseas, & Voice of America can fill that role. Solid reporting & persuasion can help achieve foreign policy...

Chamberlain or Churchill? YES is appeasement. Fight this madman who wants to privatize government. Dems must fight fire with fire. Play hardball Senator - they are! These are not normal times; business as usual is capitulation. TAKE the hard stand to save your country.

How Musk's compensating himself for dismantling the FAA:

"The SpaceX employee inside the FAA unveiled a solution that he said came directly from Musk: The FAA would set up thousands of Starlink satellite terminals to improve communication and connectivity within the national airspace system..."

How many people actually know this bit of history?
Just another treaty Russia broke.
This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell.

This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

Love this! Rauch educates us on 'patrimonial regimes' - where “The state is little more than the extended ‘household’ of the ruler..." - or the family business.
Calling out the gangsterism and corruption is his strategy for taking it down. But are we up to persistent and disciplined messaging?
