Not even Trump is buying Netanyahu’s false-flag story. An Israeli plumber took over the controls and saved the plane from crashing. “I don’t know if it’s true, but that’s the story I got from Bibi.”

I guess Republicans who want to rewrite history by claiming that they were going to cruise to midterm wins if Trump didn’t go to war with Iran forgot that Democrats dramatically outperformed their 2024 numbers in virtually every single race in 2025 BEFORE Trump started his war.

Yes every woman has been harassed, many assaulted. But every woman has also experienced invisible loss from moments she avoided harassment. She felt a space becoming unsafe, so she left, while men stayed on. And in leaving, she lost: opportunities, experiences, learning, promotions, even simply fun.
