Another week, another “shutdown” countdown. At this point, the US Congress treats deadlines the way most people treat unread emails. Ignore, circle back, repeat. youtube.com/watch?v=_NDwwWcb… #GovernmentShutdown #Congress #DHS #FederalFunding

How many executive orders did President Trump just cancel and why were Biden’s “autopen” signatures at the center of the controversy? I break it down here 👉youtu.be/denMVCaogRA?si=y05E… #Trump #autopen #AutoPenGate #Biden #POTUS #executiveorders #EO #CybersecurityNews

This is what is most likely related to the grant: habitat.org/COP28-reports Screenshots below are their most recent in report @GuideStarUSA Unless their balance sheet is completely upside down this year they have more than enough assets to cover delays in funding from the U.S.

@SouthwestAir is the next @HP? Business students study @CarlyFiorina’s HP—how the $25B Compaq merger & 30K job cuts shattered a tech icon. Now, CEO Bob Jordan is rewriting @SouthwestAir’s legacy: •Ending free checked bags (May 2025) •Basic economy fares •@RapidRewards changes A customer-first brand now chasing short-term revenue. Experts say this could cost $1.8B in market share for a $1.5B bag fee gain. I’d say has—many, including my family, are done with @SouthwestAir. @Delta is already circling. Future MBAs will study how a CEO & hedge fund dismantled a beloved airline.

You're either a moron or you are completely trying to gaslight, because this is not a protected protest technique under the 1st Amendment.

From reports he actively supported a recognized terrorist organization. Even more important he was a leader in an effort that directly went after Jews and made it so dangerous for them that they were told not to come on to Columbia’s campus. He’s not a citizen, he’s a guest who is no longer wanted in our home.

These are the nations that have not met their NATO spending obligations (2% of GDP spent on defense). Question: We’ve asked, cajoled, and chided them to meet their spending obligations and yet even with a significant war on their doorsteps, they haven’t increased their defense spending to obligatory levels. Therefore, why should @realDonaldTrump and @JDVance not give NATO the ultimatum that if these nations do not meet their 2% obligation by January 1, 2026 that either they must be kicked out of the alliance or the US is going to withdraw from NATO?

Comparing @realDonaldTrump and @ZelenskyyUa’s meeting leading to the equivalent of Hitler & Chamberlain in Munich is such a political misread of history. The right equivalent is back in 2014 when Europe and @BarackObama didn’t do anything of consequence when Putin took all of Crimea.

Complete respect and honor for my fellow warriors who died in combat, but your picture deserves another.

Good for Europe and Canada for putting on their big boy pants. But going to war without the US is the equivalent of a “Leroy Jenkins” attack.

“Why forego the advantages of so peculiar a situation? Why quit our own to stand upon foreign ground? Why, by interweaving our destiny with that of any part of Europe, entangle our peace and prosperity in the toils of European ambition, rivalship, interest, humor or caprice?” - President George Washington
