You miss the point entirely. FEMA was ordered not to spend any more money on illegal aliens until further notice. FEMA officials did , in fact , send that money. They were fired. Mayor Adam’s troubles are of his own making

Whether it’s part of a deliberate calculation or not, one thing’s for sure, pretty much everything Trump and his administration are doing right now has got positively everyone, including world governments to politicians to city mayors scrambling to figure out how to keep out of the line of fire.

Kinda fun to watch.

He wants to get as many hostages out as possible before restarting the war.

Trump words on America rebuilding Gaza were brilliant. As Egypt suddenly after DECADES steps up with their own ‘plan’. Now we need Jordan to do the same. The only question now is will Gaza be leveled even more before the rebuild. We’ll find out Saturday. If those hostages are not released I would not be surprised if we see another ‘Qasem Soleimani’ event, except this time Hamas leadership hanging out in Turkey & Qatar. These are the fat cats pulling the strings for Iran.

Yes, Beirut used the be the ‘Paris of the Middle East’ as a nod to its cosmopolitan scene and love for the arts. The mountains and deserts in Lebanon are also of great natural beauty. Sad to see that multi cultured place disintegrate into Islam domination.

No Laughing Matter

The Senate has just confirmed as health secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a science denialist who once said there is no vaccine that is safe and effective, who has suggested that Covid might have been genetically engineered to spare Jewish and Chinese people and who spent more than 100 pages in his recent book breathing new life into the idea that H.I.V. does not cause AIDS. -- NYTimes

“With the right philosophy and the right level of American support, we may see a different type of violence in Mexico.”

Different type indeed. With full American military support (special forces, high-end tech etc) just across the border (making it relativity cheap for the US too), the "different type" might be the shooting fish in a barrel type of violence.
