We’ve bombed Iran. And dismantled our joint terrorism task force. And sent a third of the FBI to help ICE. And gutted the National Security Council. And a drunk guy is in charge at the pentagon. And our intelligence allies probably won’t share intel with us. Because people couldn’t vote for a woman.

Flashback to Trump saying that if Harris gets elected, she'll start World War III, and yeah, every accusation really was an admission.

The cold reality of today: chaos is still up, confusion is still up, and Trump’s tariff taxes are still hurting American businesses and farmers, and driving up costs for everyone.

The stupidity in Trump’s new tariffs is apparently limitless.
He has introduced a 10% tariff on the British Indian Ocean Territory.
The only inhabited island there is Diego Garcia, home to US service personnel.
