Well at least there's some new of little bit of sanity restored.
Just like Noem. I will never understand that self-mutilation thinking.

I'm just disappointed he wasn't able to eat the entirety of himself fast enough to leave his captors baffled: "were'd he go?"

I guess this has been posted before. I just didn't remember. The truth is here if you look for it.

Boring!!!! Where are the arrests??!!
Hence the old saying..."If it ain't broke. don't fix it."

But Iceland has peace.....we can fix that.
I remember watching those videos and they are from Russians targeting Ukraine, but who is paying attention.
Like for first 2 years of this war, any tank or aircraft that was burning was labled as russian by the media and on twitter before X.
But once the very distinct looking western tanks started getting destroyed all of those X accounts or OSINT websites had to close down and also due to community notes on X. Remember the Ghost of Kiev propaganda.
Anyway, Ukraine was a full year behind russia in this fiber optic drone warfare. Even now their drones have much lower range and flight time compared to Russia, who get their fiber optic spool, latest battery tech and high performance motors from China.
While Ukraine too gets them from China, they have to buy it off the shelf from Chinese suppliers from alibaba that comes via slow boat to EU and then to Ukraine. While Russia may most likely have a government to government deal with the CCP and they have a much faster rail access.
Practically every drone company in the world has to rely on China for battery, Magnets/Motor.
Well now the administration and its media lackeys are coming clean about the no tax on social security lie, telling us we should be happy about it. I guess this is a classic example of gaslighting. Look at the slippery slope from the lie, to how we're supposed to like it:
First, they declare they did what they said:
Then they start morphing what was promised into something else that might sound similar on the surface:
And then prove it with a stat that has nothing to do with the stated objective:
What they don't understand is that conservatives, unlike the stupid dem voters, sometimes believe what they see instead of what they're told they are seeing. And they sometimes don't like being lied to and manipulated, even when it's their own candidate doing it, as opposed to the dems who judge good and bad based on who's doing it. This sucks. It's a total lie and betrayal.
My comments have nothing to do with what is or isn't good for the budget, and everything to do with trust and honesty.

Is it another artist's slight on Trump. Making him more orange and giving him a blue tie instead of red? They should have put in a cartoon bubble with a mean tweet to complete it.
Here's a decent explanation of the No Tax on Social Security bait-and-switch. It's from PBS, yet appears to be surprisingly correct (for them).
"President Donald Trump keeps saying that Republicans’ mega tax and spending cut legislation will eliminate taxes on federal Social Security benefits. It does not.
At best, Trump’s “no tax on Social Security” claim exaggerates the benefits to seniors if either the House or Senate-passed proposals is signed into law."
"But instead of eliminating the tax, the Senate and House have each passed their own versions of a temporary tax deduction for seniors aged 65 and over, which applies to all income — not just Social Security. And it turns out not all Social Security beneficiaries will be able to claim the deduction. Those who won’t be able to do so include the lowest-income seniors who already don’t pay taxes on Social Security, those who choose to claim their benefits before they reach age 65 and those above a defined income threshold."
In other words, tax-wise, it has absolutely nothing to do with Social Security!
Trump says the Republican mega bill will eliminate taxes on Social Security. It does not
