The beginning on the war on trans in Texas was starting back then, and I'm not sure I fully realized it. But it was clearly going on based upon the text of the bill.
- It's over: The United States is now, shockingly, an ally with Russia. I never thought I'd see the day.
- At the United Nations, we sided with Russia, China, and North Korea by refusing to condemn Russia as invaders of Ukraine. The vote to condemn was 93 to 18 in favor of the resolution.
- Later in the day, Trump refused to call Putin a "dictator" after labeling Zelensky as one only a couple of days ago. Video. This comes on the heels where he refuses to say Russia started the war.
- It's over: The Justice Department now readily admits they are Trump's lawyers. This from the U.S. Attorney in D.C. who flat came out and said that yesterday. And he's prepared to fight the free press who does not support everything Trump says. Mind-blowing.
- It's over: Press conferences are now controlled by Trump Media: Yesterday, the first question that Trump took in the press conference with Macron was from the boyfriend of Marjorie Taylor Green who wanted to know how awesome Trump was: "I just want to touch upon real quickly the Harvard poll that . . . came out [that] had you up nine plus points. And all of your agenda that you ran on, you're accomplishing that. You've got the support of the American people including stopping the war in Ukraine. If you can comment on the latest Harvard poll, I appreciate that." Video.
- DOGE's Five Bullet Point Ultimatum Update:
- After some department heads told employees to ignore Musk's demand for a five bullet point email sent to all federal employees, and after Trump's own Office of Personnel Management told all agencies that is was OK ignore it, Trump then did an about face and told everyone in the afternoon that they will be "semi-fired" if they didn't respond. Everyone clear?
- Later Musk decided to give everyone a second chance.
- Local and Texas quick hits:
- This happened on Friday but somehow we didn't hear about it until yesterday.
- This is a guy who wanted to be caught and go back to prison.
- This was in Azle yesterday and, frankly, doesn't look like your ordinary plane.
- The Congresswoman better hurry or she's never going to solve that case!
- Round-ups were beginning yesterday, but the news got buried. And, no, they aren't just targeting "violent criminals."
- Once Garland releases the bodycams in this case, it's going to look like the shootout in Heat. "A total of five squad cars were struck by bullets [and] . . . more than 100 rounds were fired over the course of the attack."
- Roberta Flack died yesterday. Here is the Billboard Top 20 for February 24, 1973 - the first week at No. 1 for “Killing Me Softly With His Song.”
