Yes, the SSA is shut down or is doing very limited services, because of the Dems' anti-DHS snit.

OTOH, Iran has been at war with the US, courtesy of Jimmy Carter, and has been threatening the US with their almost ready long-range missiles. EarlG and DU-folk are not POed that Iran got attacked. They are POed because Trump did it. Had LIEden done it DU-folk would praise his decisiveness and foreign policy genius.

Ironically, when the Dems wrote the FACE Act, they included churches as protected so as to preclude Pro-Life lawsuits claiming their religious freedoms were being targeted. Either the Dems fantasized that churches would never be targeted, or they didn't think an R President would dare to use the FACE Act to protect churches.

So the Department of Homeland Security is currently shut down

And yet Trump has started a war of regime change against a country that is potentially capable of guerilla strikes on American soil.

According to a CBS report from a few weeks ago, "The shutdown will affect the Transportation Security Administration, the Federal Emergency Management Agency, the Coast Guard, the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Agency and other agencies within DHS that safeguard national security."

It seems to me that if you're going to start a major war with another country -- especially if you're going to force the leaders of that country into an existential crisis, meaning that literally everything is on the table in terms of their response -- it would make sense to have all those defense and security agencies operating at full strength. And yet here we are.

Of course, DHS itself, along with the rest of the Trump regime, has been describing this as the "Democrats' shutdown" because Republicans have refused to negotiate with Democrats, who simply want ICE to follow the Constitution.

Now, if I were a very cynical person, I might think that not only does Trump not care about an attack on American soil, but he'd actually welcome such a thing, because a) he could blame it on the Democrats for shutting down DHS, and b) it would give him the pretext he needs to declare a national emergency and assert federal control over the mid-term elections.

But gosh, one would really have to lose one's faith in the President of the United States to consider that he might do something so disgraceful, wouldn't one?

Mamdani Orders Flags At One World Trade Center Flown Half-Staff To Mourn Ayatollah


NEW YORK CITY — Mayor Zohran Mamdani has ordered all flags at One World Trade Center to be flown at half-staff to mourn the death of Ayatollah Khamenei.

Breaking down in tears at the news of the Ayatollah's passing, Mamdani stated there was no better way to honor the Supreme Leader than lowering the flag at One World Trade.

"I am horrified by Ayatollah Khamenei's murder at the hands of our armed forces, and am disgusted to even call myself an American," said Mamdani. "He was such a beloved figure. Why, just a month ago, hundreds of thousands of Iranians took to the streets, chanting his name. And then, here comes America to assassinate their cherished leader. What did Khamenei or his proxies ever do to America? I am thereby lowering the flags at One World Trade in honor of the life and legacy of Ayatollah Khamenei."

According to sources, Mamdani has vowed retaliation against America's armed forces. "I will be immediately deploying the NYPD to Tehran," said Mamdani. "I myself will be resigning as Mayor to join the Iranian Revolutionary Guard. America will pay for this!"

At publishing time, Mamdani had decided to instead record a rap video in support of the IRG, as joining them seemed like a lot of work.

While not true yet, it could plausible BEE

The DUmpster / Re: A word on Crockett/Talarico

Crockett would be entertaining, but is probably unelectable statewide. Talarico would have to navigate the minefield of Texans being heavily libertarian, conservative, and moderate and having to placate the crazies to get their $$ and get them to turn out instead of staying home.

Being of a factual and trivia related mindset, happened to hear some talking head claim that it has been 38 years since a Democrat has represented Texas in the U.S. Senate. Did not look it up, but I'm going to guess it was the walking stiff Lloyd Bentsen, aka Dukakis' running-mate in 1988.

And yes, "Ma" Richards was the goobernor during the years I lived in the state of Texas, but IIRC she never ran for anything beyond that. According to legend, her closets were full of skeletons.

These guys are posting pictures from X showing missiles strikes in different country's. There is also an X post on Yemen firing missiles on Israel.

Two thing I expect to see; Bombs going off in American city's and cartel attacks on our Navy, something along the USS Cole attack.

And of course everybody has forgotten about what-his-face's files.
