A reader asked out fashion critic: "The U.S. flag code sets guidelines for proper and respectful display of the flag. Among the guidelines is that it should not be used as an article of clothing. So is it not wrong for Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth to wear flag-themed accessories?" nyti.ms/488uLwh

The extremely simple fact is that Jeff Epstein was the most notorious child sex trafficker in history, and the President of the US was his close personal friend for decades

85% of Gaza is on the brink of death due to starvation. Israel could let aid in at any moment. And some people (like these men tried to do with me on Friday) are still trying to justify this atrocity.
There is no justification. This could stop at any moment. End the blockade now.

Kansas, Texas, Oklahoma, and other deep-red states are leading the pack in rural hospital closures. This is what happens when you gut Medicaid, reject federal dollars, and treat healthcare like a luxury.

Stand back.
Rescind this illegal, and immoral order. The absurdity of threatening the people of the United States with their own military—
Act like the Commander-in-Chief.
If you want to be president, at least try to play the part.
Fake it, if nothing else.

We’ll clean up your mess.
