It will always be the Gulf of Mexico. I won't change how I call it. I grew up a few miles from the beach in the south. That is my true home. Changing the name is an insult to me.

Note that Donald Trump thinks that Karoline Leavitt, who hid the full extent of her campaign finance debt for years and who had ties to convicted fraudster Guo Wengui, is worthy of security clearance, but not military hero Mark Milley.

Here's her tie to Wengui.

Trump's new press secretary was paid for articles praising a con man
Before Guo Wengui was charged in a massive fraud scheme, his followers commissioned Karoline Leavitt to byline fawning op-eds.

Jim Acosta was fired by CNN for being the only person left at the network who continuously pushed back on trump's lies. The network is now just another propaganda machine for MAGA.

Jim Acosta said "I WILL NOT GIVE IN TO THE LIES! I WILL NOT GIVE IN TO THE FEAR"... and all of us must take that pledge to freedoms...

Tech elites, fueled by an ideology that embraces capitalist monarchy, helped Trump win the election. Now he's ramming through mass infrastructure projects to fuel AI - which will only accelerate jobs lost to automation. The future is here, you just weren’t invited. itsgoingdown.org/good-night-t...

The only reason ICE would be at schools is to take innocent children into custody in order to lure their parents. Family separation 2.0.

🚨 Los Angeles school police says it will not comply with ICE.

This is a great question for all of congress to think about.

Hypothetically,If FEMA goes away, what happens to home owners and other insurance rates ?

Climate change looks like it will make rates so high, home insurers will want equity in your house as a way of holding down rates
I wonder how much the dissolution of FEMA and cancellation of flooding infrastructure programs is going to increase insurance premiums?

Especially as the population ages, inflation spikes, and a large % of housing stock is used as short term rentals in high risk areas.

A new @reuters.com poll finds Americans have a dim view of many of the Trump administration's blizzard of executive actions, including the Jan. 6 pardons and his effort to limit birthright citizenship.

But they *really* don't like the Gulf of America thing.
