MAGA Voter Claims She Loves High Gas Prices FRANKLIN, TN—Insisting that she hoped the spike in oil costs was only the beginning of a long upward trend, MAGA voter Kaitlyn Leonardi told reporters Tuesday that she loved high gas prices. “I don’t ...

“I don’t care if the prices rise—heck, I prefer them that way,” said Kaitlyn Leonardi, who crossed her arms in defiance as she lauded gasoline as “a great product” that had been “too cheap for too long.”

CNN: Why isn't the US Navy escorting ships through the Strait of Hormuz?

SEN. RICK SCOTT: I can't tell you the answer to that, but I think right now it's still a dangerous situation. It's gonna take a while for us to get control of the Strait of Hormuz.

This is all part of his plan to fuck with the 2026 midterms and exact revenge on those who stopped him from trying to overthrow the 2020 election. When people ask me why Trump is America’s enemy, I always start here. He’s at war against OUR elections. He’s our enemy.👇

EU climate advisers say eat less meat and tax farm emissions Brussels must take urgent measures to reduce the carbon footprint of food and farming, a scientific advisory board report says.

Europeans should eat less meat and farms must be taxed for their planet-warming pollution if the bloc is to reach its climate goals, the EU's scientific advisers argue.

Their far-reaching recommendations are unlikely to get a warm welcome from farmers.

KENNEDY: You said, 'Republicans think can troll their way to ethnic cleansing.' Did I read that correctly?

BIER: DHS tweeted for 100m deportations. That would be ethnic cleansing!

K: You don't think it's hyperbolic?

Almost 700,000 displaced, 84 children killed after Israeli strikes on Lebanon, UN agencies say The humanitarian crisis in Lebanon ‌has deepened amid the wider Middle East war, with 84 children killed and more than 667,000 people displaced, two U.N. agencies said on Tuesday, as lives are upended on a massive scale across the country. Lebanon was dragged into the U.S.-Israeli war on Iran this ​month when Iran-backed Lebanese militant group Hezbollah launched rockets and drones into Israel, which has responded with heavy bombardment across ​the country. Lebanon becomes active front in widening regional war A total of 486 people have been killed in the war so far and ⁠1,313 injured, of which 259 are children, according to the World Health Organization. “This is only seven-days conflict, and we ​are already seeing that almost 100 children that have lost their lives,” said Abdinasir Abubakar, WHO representative in Lebanon. “One ​reason why we have a high number of children is that most of the attacks that we see actually is, it’s urban centers, like in Beirut,” he said, adding that Israel’s airstrikes, which it says target Hezbollah infrastructure, are putting civilian lives at risk. The ​current rate of displacement in Lebanon is outpacing levels seen during the 2023-24 war between Hezbollah and Israel, the UN ​Refugee Agency said on Tuesday. During that conflict, 886,000 people were internally displaced in Lebanon, while tens of thousands of Israelis ‌were evacuated ⁠from northern towns near the Lebanese border. Israel orders evacuation Lebanon’s sharp rise in displacement this week stems from large-scale evacuation orders issued by the Israeli army for southern Lebanon and Beirut’s densely populated southern suburbs, which the U.N. human rights chief said on Friday raised serious concerns under international law. The WHO warned that Lebanon’s hospitals and frontline responders were under “extraordinary strain” ​trying to manage the rising ​number of patients. Five hospitals ⁠are now out of service, four partially damaged, and 43 primary healthcare centers are closed – mostly in the south, which has been largely evacuated, Abubakar said. “Many of the people ​fleeing were also fleeing back in 2024. We met many who then had ​their homes completely ⁠destroyed, family members killed and so on. So this means that people are not waiting to see what will happen next. They leave immediately,” said Karolina Lindholm Billing, UNHCR representative in Lebanon. Some 120,000 people are staying in government-designated shelters, while ⁠others are ​still looking for somewhere to stay, the UNHCR said, citing government figures. “Many ​others are staying with relatives or friends or still searching for accommodation, and we see cars lined along the street with people sleeping ​in them and also on the sidewalks,” Billing said.

The Israeli military stated it is conducting strikes across the country targeting Hezbollah infrastructure and personnel. According to the Disaster Management Unit of the Lebanese government, as of 08 March 2026, more than 115,000 people have been internally displaced in collective shelters in Lebanon since Israel resumed strikes on the country.

Not trying to be hyperbolic, I fear we are on the cusp of a 9/11 type catastrophe that this regime is unwilling and unable to protect us from.
