After the tragedy in DC the MAGA lies started. "Biden never vetted the refugees."
Vetting was a 2-phase process. The 1st in 2021, was understandably imperfect. The 2nd phase did the bulk of the sorting. Of 75K, 55 Afghans were risky and 46 were later cleared. 9 remained risky as of July 2024.

Professions dominated by women are under attack by Trump's DoE. Recent changes have redefined professional degrees in healthcare and public service, facing reduced federal loans and access to financial aid programs. They are also the professions required to report child abuse.

DHS/Coast Guard is changing their policy to allow nooses to be displayed. Previously these were considered symbols of hate. Now it's just peachy to have a tattoo with noose or a real one hanging around. How disgusting! What a slap in the face to civil rights and people of color.

Trump attended the Commanders game yesterday and brought his friends with him. Fully armed and masked. What was he expecting? Did the Bad Bunny fans scare him so that he needed the Army to protect him? The draft dodger in charge should stay home if he is so scared.

Let's replace an expert in naval engineering with someone with no naval engineering experience. RAdm. Rothenhaus was booted as Chief of Naval Research for Rachel Riley a partner at the firm McKinsey & Co. and DOGE hack gutting HHS and NIH. Because the Navy doesn't know how to build ships.

What did he say? Thanks to el-Sisi of Egypt for his friendship since 2016? They say el-Sisi gave $10M to keep his campaign alive in 2016. Then the US gave Egypt $1.5B in aid after dropping to $500M under Obama. Sounds funny, huh?Investigations were dropped after his 1st term started.
