Just a question: if past Presidents were dumb how did 45 become smart when reincarnated as 47?

"I will not be supporting Sen. Mullin’s nomination should it come before the Senate,"
"The problems at DHS, especially at ICE and CBP, run far deeper than just who is in charge."
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y.
uhhh
Chaz:
Do you mean to suggest the best way to solve deep ICE & CBP problems is to leave them leaderless ?
Do you think your formula equally applies to the U.S. senate, minority leader Schumer ?

"I am very proud of the term 'fake news' because it's my term, I came up with it. But it is really no longer accurate. It's corrupt, fraudulent, it really is. It's beyond fake. It's criminal what they do." ~ Trump
"We're inviting broadcasters to once again highlight the great wins of the country and to run patriotic programming. Maybe starting off with the Pledge of Allegiance." ~ FCC Chair Brendan Carr

" ... it's my term, I came up with it. But ..." controlling the message is predictably common in authoritarian / totalitarian regimes.
In capitalist system, the propaganda, we call it "advertising", advocates spending: buy our stuff.
In totalitarian North Korea propaganda promotes the "dear leader", Kim Jong fatso.
In capitalist systems lead by persons of good conscience, controlling the message is rarely if ever necessary.
But under Trump & Kim Jong, the true message is so alarming the leaders endeavor to sculpt it to suit their preference. It's called propaganda.
propaganda
noun: ideas, facts, or allegations spread deliberately to further one's cause or to damage an opposing cause

"I have decided that we will not have public hearings because I do not believe the administration's decision-makers should be subject to public questioning by senators." ~ Sen. Jim Risch, Foreign Relations Committee Chair, asked when there will be public hearings about the war
For 34 days, funding for the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has been blocked in a standoff over the Trump administration’s deeply unpopular immigration enforcement, something the White House has finally realized is such a public opinion disaster that they’ve stopped calling it mass deportation. The biggest public-facing side of this shutdown is Transportation Security Administration workers, who have now worked without a paycheck for a month. But aside from frustration about longer airport security lines, there’s been little pressure on Washington to end the impasse. https://prospect.org/2026/03/19/government-shutdown-trump-dhs-ice-cbp-funding-congress/
