All Hat No Cattle: Trump Declares U.S. ‘Will Take Over the Gaza Strip,’ Says ‘We’ll Own It’

Trump Declares U.S. ‘Will Take Over the Gaza Strip,’ Says ‘We’ll Own It’

President Donald Trump said the United States “will take over the Gaza Strip” after Palestinians are expelled from the area.

Speaking at a joint press conference at the White House with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Tuesday, Trump repeated his belief that Gazans should leave Gaza for places such as Egypt and Jordan. In a twist, the president claimed the U.S. “will own” the besieged territory, much of which has been reduced to rubble by the Israel Defense Forces after the Oct. 7, 2023 terror attacks.

The mainstream media must stop ignoring there's a coup by an unelected oligarch ideologically aligned with Russia and with business ties to Russia and China. The media empowers the coup by refusing to ring the alarm. - Andrea Chalupa

The World Is A Safer Place Without Trump

The world's richest man is orchestrating a coup. This is a constitutional crisis. Senate Democrats should not be confirming any of Trump’s nominees while this power grab continues. Nothing should be "business as usual." Call them and tell them that. (202) 224-3121. - Robert Reich

Two weeks ago, what Musk is doing now would be called espionage.

Now Would Be A Good Time For Some Sane Soul In The CIA To Leak The Bad Stuff About Trump
The Central Intelligence Agency on Tuesday became the first major national security agency to offer so-called buyouts to its entire workforce, a CIA spokesperson and two other sources familiar with the offer said, part of President Donald Trump’s broad effort to shrink the federal government and shape it to his agenda.

Now wiping out the entire #CIA workforce. Folks: martial law is not far away. He is going to do it. Get your Supplies. Get some cash. Food. Gas in cars/garage. Check on your parents-make sure they are good. Get ammo for your weapons. This is a coup. Period. In broad daylight! - Sophia Nelson

Shuttering the agency responsible for international assistance.

Turning the government over to wealthy oligarchs motivated by economic self-interest.

Telling all CIA officers they will be paid if they quit.

China and Russia are winning so much they’re getting tired of winning. - Sen. Adam Schiff

Republican Shenanigans

As Trump tries to dismantle the Department of Education, remember that his plan to cut the corporate tax rate to 15% would give the 100 largest corporations a tax cut larger than the entire education department's K-12 budget. Really think about how twisted this all is. - Robert Reich

What A Clown Show
The U.S. Postal Service said on Wednesday it would accept parcels from China and Hong Kong again after a temporary suspension following President Donald Trump scrapping a trade provision used by retailers including Temu, Shein, and Amazon to ship low-value packages duty-free to the United States.

Why in hell did we spend billions of taxpayer dollars to fund the CIA, FBI and NSA to ‘protect national security’ if they allowed this to happen in real time when there were multiple published news reports documenting it happening years and months prior? - Fernand R. Amandi

Someone needs to tell Trump’s enablers that when this shitshow is over and the tribunals begin, he will have immunity but they won’t lol - Andy Borowitz

Not Only Are They Trying To Push Out Federal Employees, They Want To Renege On Office Leases.

One of the next moves in President Donald Trump and Elon Musk’s sweeping effort to fire government employees and curtail operations is using the agency that manages thousands of federal employee worksites around the country to cut down on office space.

Last week, regional managers for the General Services Administration, or GSA, received a message from the agency’s Washington headquarters to begin terminating leases on all of the roughly 7,500 federal offices nationwide, according to an email shared with The Associated Press by a GSA employee.

Poor Joe and Mika - they should have been sucking up to the South African dude. - Andy Borowitz

Sen Chris Murphy: "We need to act like a real opposition party in the middle of a constitutional and democracy crisis. That means we should not be moving forward nominees or legislation in the Senate. Ds should not be giving votes to nominee or legislation in the Senate until Rs get serious about this crisis"

A $2 Flight. $2. Really?
President Donald Trump said his administration will investigate a high-speed rail project in California that, if completed, would connect San Francisco and Los Angeles with several stops along the way. Trump said a railway project isn’t necessary because, according to him, a plane ticket can be purchased for $2.

Our United Airlines pilot made sure to emphasize *Mexico* when he said we'd be flying over the Gulf of *Mexico* today.

🌵😍 I am always elated by photos of saguaros that are surviving all the challenges of being in Phoenix. These majestic cacti still get used for target practice by brainless gun-nuts!! Saguaros have more protections now, but idiots playing John Wayne vs. Bandit are still out there!! The vast amount of forcing non-desert agriculture into the desert started killing saguaros with increased humidity years ago. And now, that kind of humidity in desert temperatures is also making humans bake. 🌵🥵😢

🤬 From the disgusting smirk on Bibi Netanyahu last night during Sphincter Face's Gaza ethnic cleansing announcement, I can only assume he's gonna get a huge cut of the "Riviera" profits as well as having someone clear out all those pesky Palestinians! Amazing how Sphincter and Bibi don't see that they are no different from Hitler and Hamas!!
Ya know, Sphincter's Nazi, Elon Musk oughta be the pissed off one right now! He had to pay over $250M to own the U.S. and take all its wealth. It looks like #47 is gonna get the rest of the wealth of the world for free!! 🤬🤬🤬
