Gaza death toll passes 50,000 in Israel’s war with Hamas, Health Ministry says
Gaza’s Health Ministry does not distinguish between civilians and combatants. Experts say the official death toll is probably an undercount.

Democrat: if elected I will represent and protect all Americans

Republican: if elected I will only represent my voters and harm everyone else

Democrat voters: if our guy loses we’re fucked.

"Mad Dog Mattis", a decorated and experienced Marine general, understood the means of diplomacy
Foreign aid is less than 1% of the federal budget. General James Mattis once told Congress, “If you don’t fund the State Department fully, then I need to buy more ammunition.” USAID’s work prevents conflicts before they require military intervention.

So Elon forces out the head of the FAA. Trump fires TSA director and a safety oversight committee. And less than two weeks later we have the deadliest crash on American soil in DECADES. Let's blame DEI even though the pilots were all white men! That makes sense!!!!!
