    CDC website removed all references to contraception, violence against women, and HIV prevention.

    Agriculture department removed suggestions for farmers coping with climate change.

    As soon as head of WWE who has no education experience is confirmed as secretary of education, President Musk plans to shut down department of education.

    Thirty agents and armored car used to arrest 62 year old Arizona man with no criminal record, who has lived in the country 40 years and has four American citizen children.

    In Texas a Trump voter, cop who thought Trump was pro police, attended protest yesterday. He is upset over January 6 pardons, and worried his father could be deported. Another one who never thought face eating leopard party would eat his face.

    If they try to shut down the department of education there will be a huge outcry like when they tried the freeze and will be forced to backtrack.

    Trump announced US will take over Gaza and level it. Even Netanyahu was startled.

    Plots of land will be set aside elsewhere in the middle east for the current residents of Gaza. Maybe we'll call them "reservations"?

    And the US will own and redevelop Gaza. Guess Jared will get to build that hotel after all.

    Plots? Sounds like a cemetery to me.

    Maybe Egypt, Jordon and others will take in Gazeans. As much as I cant stand Trump this may be a decent idea for peace in the mid east?

    You might want to read up on your history before you post more on this subject.

    First off, the Islamic people never have been particularly tolerant of a mass foreign presence, let alone foreign occupiers.

    Second, Egypt and Jordan haven't wanted the people from Gaza. Egypt actually has closed its doors to Gazans. The only way they might take them is if Trump uses U.S. funds to pay those countries to take them.

    Otherwise, we're probably looking at a mass refugee migration similar to the one from Syria that caused such turmoil in the Middle East and Europe.

    This is going to require a pretty massive U.S. military presence. Islamists won't be able to get to Trump, so they'll just target our soldiers instead. If you have friends and family involved in the U.S. armed forces, my heart goes out to you.

    Then we've got the idea of increased terrorist plots here in the U.S. Remember, Osama bin Laden started as an ally with the Mujahadeen, the precursor to al Qaeda.

    With Tulsi Gabbard now in charge of our intelligence, our usual allies probably won't be as forthcoming with us with intel, including those that involve attacks against our people or on our soil.

    Yeah, this is a powder keg. Very high probability this leads to a lot of death, not anything close to peace.

    Luckily, I didn't order anything from Temu recently.

    Thats part of my thinking and it really is just a thought, that region needs some definite help by other countries in rebuilding.

    No, they won't take them. They refused Trump's demand.

    Big difference there is that we didn't force the Japanese to leave Japan, the Germans to leave Germany, or the Koreans to leave Korea.

    Nor did we claim ownership of any of those countries.
