They should just chisel their texts into stone tablets. That would be easier.

The policy expects officials to first take screenshots of the text messages on their work phones, send it to their work email, download it on their work computers and then run a program that would recognize the text to store it in searchable formats, according to the department's guidance submitted to the court.

Miller would mass exterminate 2/3rds of the country if he could. 3000 deportations per day is his workaround.
"He has the president's complete trust," said Mr. McCarthy. "Trump's complained about everyone. Never him." Mr. Trump may not complain about Mr. Miller, but he does occasionally poke at his obsession with immigrants — a hostility that goes far beyond Mr. Trump's. In one meeting during the 2024 campaign, Mr. Trump said that if it was up to Mr. Miller there would be only 100 million people in this country, and they would all look like Mr. Miller, according to a person with knowledge of the comment. Karoline Leavitt, Mr. Trump's spokeswoman, denied the account.

But a city run grocery store is totally different and definitely communism, but a federal cash-and-carry marketplace for pharmaceuticals named after dear leader is definitely not communism
TrumpRx would allow people to pay cash for certain drugs directly from a government website, at a discounted price negotiated by the government. It's unclear how many drugs would be offered, or whether the website would be useful for the majority of' Americans who are already covered by private insurance, Medicare or Medicaid.

18 minutes ago Shawn McCreesh White House reporter 山 "I've never walked into a room so silent before," President Trump says as he takes the stage to address the military at the Quantico base. "Don't laugh, don't laugh, you're not allowed to do that," he cracks, before telling the members of the military that they are "allowed" to applaud, laugh, or even get up and leave if they don't like what they're hearing. (Though he jokes that then they'd be fired). "You just feel nice and loose," he tells them.

Believing in this stupid conspiracy theory is one of the most non-partisan things I can think of.

Trump Tariffs take down another innovative American small manufacturer. Are we great again yet? Free enterprise was good while it lasted. starlinghome.io
Starling Hub Starling Home Hub is no longer available for purchase. Since 2019, Starling has been proud to make the smart home experience more enjoyable for tens of thousands of Google Nest and Apple users. Unfortunately, the rapidly rising costs of doing business for small US-based product companies like us (most significantly, tariffs the US government charges us to obtain the components we need to build our product means that it's no longer possible for us to manufacture and sell Starling Home Hub and break even on our costs. We're very sorry for the disappointment this may cause to those looking to purchase. We will continue to provide technical support and security/bug fix updates for our existing customers, along with the Starling Protect service, as long as we can, and we are aiming to maintain enough stock to be able to honor product warranties for existing customers.

Charlie Kirk (1993-2025) Updates Obituary Maps and Video Timel 9 minutes ago Richard Fausset 凸 The list of messages on the suspect's casings, as described by Gov. Spencer Cox of Utah, include apparent references to online culture and gaming. "Up arrow, right arrow, and three down arrow symbols," as described by Cox, may be a reference a sequence of moves on a controller that release a bomb in the video game "Helldivers." Another engraving, "Notices bulges OWO what's this?" is a phrase used for trolling in online roleplay communities 12 minutes ago Nicholas Bogel-Burroughs Reporting on criminal justice 凸 Gov. Spencer Cox of Utah says in a news conference that he thinks the engraving on an unfired cartridge that reads, "Hey, fascist! Catch!" is the one that most clearly shows the gunman's intent. "I think that speaks for itself," the governor says. The cartridge and others were found alongside the gun that officials say was used to kill Charlie Kirk.
