Trump takes aim at 15 trans girls & an accurate American history

Good news, y'all; I have it on good authority (a mid-market conservative talk radio parrot) that Donald Trump''s rhetoric whereby the U.S. would "take over" Gaza were "sidebar remarks were casual and not intended as anything other than speculative inquiries."

Oh good; for a minute there I thought the press briefing on a dais with the Israeli Prime Minister beside POTUS - both behind podiums and one with the Presidential seal on it meant "this is a serious occasion."

The "Trump whisperers" have some gall trying to "Trump-splain" to those outside the MAGA cult. Hell, Netenyahu took it to HEART - getting his military on standby for it.

So we're not to take Trump seriously (we just don't know when to) but Canada already doesn't. But hey, he signed an executive order to deal with t̶h̶e̶ ̶s̶c̶o̶u̶r̶g̶e̶ ̶o̶f̶ ̶ 10-15 trans girls, nationwide, competing in women's sports in college and/or public school. Another meaningless trophy for his case full of meaningless trophies. I'm sure Nancy ("Tranny Tranny Tranny!") Mace enjoyed the moment, though. Thank goodness we'll finally keep pervs out of girls' lockerrooms (and dressing rooms, I presume?)

As Elon and his DOGE boy band mates continue pilfering through government (and yours) data, it's worth noting that our federal workforce has been shrinking for the last half century, is more educated (and paid less) than their private sector counterparts. Pesky facts.

Also worth noting that the Department of Education is in Trump/DOGE crosshairs mostly because it's done away with the decades of whitewashing of American (and Confederate) history by the likes of the Daughters of the Confederacy. The kind of distortion that poisoned the brains of Senators Marsha Blackburn, LIndsey Graham, Ted Cruz, Tom Cotton, et al, had been done away with and now the "anti-woke" folk (read: those that cringe at the thought of an accurate reckoning of this country's dark history on race) see a need to do away with the federal agency that wiped away that nonsense. Gee, wonder why?

Lastly, Trump's anti-D.E.I. push is affecting the "pro-business" LGBTQIA+ efforts in Atlanta and Houston - but he and his cult are totally not anti-gay, y'all! Congrats FAGA (yeah, I'll say it), you just set yourself and the rest of the "alphabet mafia" back five decades to "second class citizenship."
