Is the post-Trump GOP already forming?
None of us will live forever and nothing ever stays the same. Life always moves right along and it's quite a bumpy ride. The present calamity of Trump's lamentable presidency won't last very much longer. This too shall pass.
Donald Trump's presidential term ends in just a year and a half. Can we expect him to then bow out gracefully? No, probably not. But is he completely done-for as a real political force? Yes, although he will keep on trying to insert himself when and where he is no longer welcome. He will resist being pushed aside, but, thankfully, his influence is already ebbing, even among stalwart Republicans.
Move over now, Donald J. Trump, your time's almost up. You've already had your allotted 15 minutes of fame. Trump's political decline may proceed in fits and starts, but it's already happening--what a relief! That's not merely my wishful thinking, so mark my words! Just wait and see. We don't have very long now to wait until he's actually gone, gone, gone. Even Republicans are losing faith, but with Republican office-holders still putting on a good front.
Trump, Hegseth clashed at Camp David over Iran missile depletion concerns
Stockpiles are running low. Who is to blame?
Israel has been ignoring all of Iran's peace overtures. So how about applying a little tough love there by reducing America's moral and economic support of Israel? Trump could do that right now, as his bromance with Netanyahu has already run its course. Both men are on their way out, though Trump may not realize yet that he himself is all done. But Trump still has economic leverage right now over Israel, our vassal state. Nor are American Jews as supportive of Israel as they once were.

In 1961, pop artist Andy Warhol predicted that anyone's fame would last for just 15 minutes. So Donald Trump's fame and influence are all over now. How will Trump be remembered? The history books will decide, but we already know that Donald Trump, contrary to his own prediction, will not be heralded as the greatest American president ever since Abraham Lincoln. But he may well be considered the quirkiest.

Trump signs orders targeting birthright citizenship
If I am not mistaken, most countries do have birthright citizenship. The US actually now needs more people, more babies, so birthright citizenship may be a way to help us get there since Trump has blocked our borders, especially the southern border. So we need to get more expectant mothers in here somehow.
Apparently, Trump's mother was born in Scotland, so now let's send Donald back to his mother's birthplace if it will even take him.
This federal judge ruled against Trump. Then the threats began.
Donald Trump will soon be out of presidential office, and thank goodness for that! Until his time is up, he will remain a threat to our country and to the rest of the world.
US voters, you made a big mistake in choosing President Trump. He is vindictive and a liar (also probably a rapist). If Kamala were our president now, none of all this would have happened.

CNN, Mexican influencer César Gastélum was shot dead on Tuesday while live- streaming in front of a fast-food restaurant in the northwestern Mexican city of Culiacán, according to local and federal authorities.
Gastélum, who had over 600,000 followers on TikTok, was shot after being approached by two helmeted people on a motorcycle...A security official from the state of Sinaloa confirmed Gastélum's death and stated that a major security operation was underway. (And we certainly know just where all those guns in Mexico come from.)
==========================================A Tibetan activist shouting "freedom for Tibet" has died after setting himself on fire outside UN headquarters in NY City. Will he be considered a link in an historic chain leading to Tibet's eventual independence? Probably so, as China ultimately will have to give up Tibet, at least that is my prediction, although I will no longer be around if and when it actually happens.

The still image shown here below is from a video of our closest star, the sun. Our sun's molten perpetual-motion surface is always whirling, swirling, twirling--sending out constant light and heat.
Without the sun, there would be no life on planet earth, including our own human lives. Humans, animals, and plants could well survive on earth without the moon, even without Mars or Venus. but not without the sun.
