Trump's Second Term

Fox News: How do you deal with people who might be disappointed because they voted for you on the assumption of no wars?

Trump: Well, I have to do something in terms of making America great and keeping America great. My uncle was a great professor at MIT. He really got it. He was a highly respected man. He was there for 41 years at MIT.

"Most people don't know about my uncle, because I never talk about him."
 
Sorry if this has been posted already.

A meeting yesterday at the CDC offered the latest sign that the Make America Healthy Again revolution might be stalling out, Tom Bartlett reports.

The Make America Healthy Again movement and, by extension, Kennedy appear to be on the ropes,” Bartlett writes. “MAHA supporters are angry that Trump recently signed an executive order shielding the makers of the weed killer glyphosate from legal liability.

Can't quote too much from it as it's really short, but it goes on to list some concrete setbacks of the MAHA movement.

Hopefully it will start putting tension between Trump and RFK Jr. I don't really care if Trump stops pandering to antivaxers or if RFK starts attacking Trump. Hopefully both.
 
US voting against declaring slave trade as ‘gravest crime against humanity’.


Argentina, Israel and the US the only votes against the UN resolution.

I guess there is nothing in the history of the US that would suggest that slavery is bad - and plenty of people in power who think it should be brought back.
 
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is blocking the promotion of four Army officers to be one-star generals, a highly unusual move that has prompted some senior military officials to question whether the officers are being singled out because of their race or gender.

Two of the officers targeted by Mr. Hegseth are Black and two are women on a promotion list that consists of about three dozen officers, most of whom are white men, senior military officials said.

Mr. Hegseth had been pressing senior Army leaders, including Army Secretary Daniel P. Driscoll, for months to remove the officers’ names, military officials said. But Mr. Driscoll, citing the officers’ decades-long records of exemplary service, had repeatedly refused.

Earlier this month, Mr. Hegseth broke the logjam by unilaterally striking the officers’ names from the list, though it is not clear he has the legal authority to do so. The list is currently being reviewed by the White House, which is expected to send it to the Senate for final approval. A few female and Black officers remain on the list, military officials said.
