The Murder of Iran
Let’s face it — Donald Trump is not fighting the Good Fight,
He’s squandering America’s world stature and military might.
Because he had no foresight or plan,
He’s taking out his frustrations on Iran,
Where, Trump says, a “whole civilization will die tonight.“
Christie: Republicans in Congress Are ‘Lemmings’
“I think anyone that follows politics can tell there are no principles left in my party. Even for people who agree with some of the stuff the president is doing, if you are honest with yourself, you know it is not based on principle. He wakes up every morning and tries to figure out, what is the best thing for him to do in his self interest that day. But the real lack of principle is on display every day in the House and Senate. These people have become lemmings.”
— Former Gov. Chris Christie (R), in an appearance at Harvard.
Voters Are Abandoning the Republican Party in Droves
57%
A new survey finds that approximately 20% of 2024 Trump voters may not vote Republican in 2028, and that almost 57% of voters who switched from Biden in 2020 to Trump in 2024 are considering abandoning the Republican party in 2028.
Will Trump Nuke Iran?
“The simple fact that we can’t say ‘definitely no, absolutely not, for sure’ is an astounding commentary on how unhinged and dangerous his presidency has become and how far off the rails the war with Iran has gone as Trump flails about with no plan, no strategy, no exit, and a global economy that day-by-day is reeling from the biggest geopolitical oil shock in history. … It sets the next 36 or so hours up as one of the weirdest and scariest moments in geopolitics of our lifetimes.”

Waffle House Warp
FEMA executive Greg Phillips used to be a complete unknown,
But that was before he started using teleportation to roam.
He entered some spiritual portal,
To transport 50 miles across Georgia,
But no one ever saw him at any of the three Waffle Houses of Rome.
Pope Leo Calls for Peace in Easter Message
“Let those who have the power to unleash wars choose peace! Not a peace imposed by force, but through dialogue! Not with the desire to dominate others, but to encounter them! We are growing accustomed to violence, resigning ourselves to it, and becoming indifferent. Indifferent to the deaths of thousands of people.”
— Pope Leo XIV used his first Easter speech Sunday to deliver a resounding call for peace in times of renewed war, declaring, “Let those who have weapons lay them down!,” the Washington Post reports.
Americans Are Down on the Iran War

A new Reuters/Ipsos poll finds 86 percent of Americans are concerned for the lives of U.S. military personnel in Iran — and 56 percent believe the war will have a negative impact on their personal financial situation.
Fired Bondi Must Still Testify to Congress
“She will not escape accountability and remains legally obligated to appear before our Committee under oath. She must answer for her mishandling of the Epstein files and the special treatment she has given Ghislaine Maxwell… If they think we are moving on because they were fired, they are gravely mistaken.”
— Rep. Robert Garcia (D-CA), quoted by Politico, on Attorney General Pam Bondi’s firing.
Plight of the Plankton
Global warming is changing phytoplankton, and scientists say it’s not good.
Plankton are the food chain’s staple throughout the whole ocean neighborhood.
But they’re losing proteins and nutrients,
Replaced by lipids and carbohydrates.
Just don’t tell Robert Kennedy Jr. we’re turning phytoplankton into junk fish food.
