“Trust the experts” stops being a thing when they are pushing chemical castration and mutilation of children in the name of affirming a mental illness most grow out of without any intervention. All this shows is the American Medical Association should be launched into the sun.
The Trump administration has threatened funding cuts and law enforcement against providers of gender-affirming care — especially to minors — care that is supported by the American Medical Association. trib.al/gOvDDIr
Daily reminder that Marxist icon Noam Chomsky downplayed the Cambodian genocide, saying: "Refugee accounts are often untrustworthy... people who fled a brutal regime are not necessarily reliable sources." The Khmer Rouge killed 25% of Cambodia’s population in 4 years.
Ok, instead of “Saving Private Ryan”, we have “Finding Colonel von Hardenberg” … but in German and in a Tiger tank. I’m in.
Der Tiger. In theaters from September 18.🍿
This is important. I hope the Admin will target all Russian financial institutions & all energy exports, with secondary sanctions for those who keep buying. The secondary tariff idea is a good one, but sanctions will be a more effective tool (& will not disrupt trade negots).
.@POTUS on Russia: "I'm going to make a new deadline of about ten or twelve days from today... there's no reason in waiting... I want to be generous but we just don't see any progress being made."
“Your bad practice is not my problem.” As I tell people all the time: get the best attorney you can afford. It matters.
So she’s single now?

I will repeat again: we are late on three things; 1. A base in Nome, AK. 2. Reactivate Adak, AK. 3. Build an ice hardened class of frigates/OPV (AKA Sloop of War)
US Coast Guard seems to have affected the freedom of navigation of Chinese ship. Moreover, The US has not ratified UNCLOS, so what is its basis for claiming the outer continental shelf in the way of bypassing CLCS and International Seabed Authority? newsweek.com/mapped-us-coas…
On @FoxNews with @BretBaier, Lithuanian Defence Minister @DSakaliene explained why Lithuania and regional allies are leaving the Ottawa Convention. Having been occupied twice, Lithuania is certain: never again. We will defend NATO’s eastern flank by all necessary means.
