If this isn't abuse and fraud, I don't know what is. We have no government right now. This is what happens when you don't have a government. (you get abused)

WaPo is in disastrous shape, but this is a wild byline on a story like this. (For you youngs who forget this, Strobel was one of the few people who got the Iraq War right.) www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

The title for a story, reading: 

Intel report warns large-scale war ‘unlikely’ to oust Iran’s regime
A classified U.S. report doubts that Iran’s opposition would take power following either a short or extended U.S. military campaign.

At the end of the day, when every dollar of the massive slush fund of taxpayer money Republicans appropriated to DHS in 2025 is audited, we will find it to be the largest govt fraud scandal in history. In addition to ICE reforms, it will more than justify this shutdown.

New Mexico officials are reopening the investigation at Epstein’s Zorro Ranch. Let’s be clear: they’re investigating claims that girls may have been murdered and buried there. It’s a crime scene and should have been taken seriously years ago. Instead, here we are. Looking at a cold case.

This is from the press conference in Budapest. Please read it. CBS News comes up with a question prompting Rubio to defend Hungary’s continuous purchase of Russian gas (while “accidentally” referring to Orban as “President”) - Rubio then compares Hungary’s strategy to US “America First”.
MODERATOR: Next is CBS News. Please, Olivia.

QUESTION: Thank you very much. Budapest is, in fact, beautiful. Mr. Secretary, on the notion of a golden age, why isn't the United States conditioning deeper cooperation with Budapest on Hungary reducing its extensive and ongoing, deepening cooperation with China, which is a strategic rival for the United States?
Secondly, if, despite President Trump's endorsement and your visit here, Prime Minister Orban does not succeed and loses the April election, does the U.S. commit to working with his challenger constructively?
Prime Minister Orban, do you commit to accepting electoral defeat if it happens?
And to both of you, president - I mean, sorry, Prime Minister Orban has said that the exemption that Hungary has been granted for Russian energy purchases is indefinite. The U.S. has said it was for one year. Which one is it? Thank you.

SECRETARY RUBIO: All right, well, let me start by answering that question. First of all, let me - so everybody can be very clear, l've made this point repeatedly. I'll make it again. Under President Trump, it is our expectation that every nation on Earth is going to act in their national interest. That's what nations are supposed to do. If the prime minister of Hungary does not act in the national interest of Hungary, he won't be prime minister for long; but who's going to act in the national interest of Hungary if their prime minister doesn't do it? If your government is not acting in your national interest, then who will? By the way, we feel the same way about America.

A local Limerick playwright did a play about the extras on John Ford's Rising of the Moon filming (staged on scene, so we got to see a church that is not normally open as part of watching it). It focused on the stale buns, reneged wages, and promised Porter. This, similarly, should become a play.
