☝️ Ahem. I thought this was a thread for non-political news. Is that not now the case?

Hurts to face what you helped bring about by promoting Trump, isn't it? Where's the peace now?
And, no. I changed it since there are no political threads anymore. I'm just posting the news without comment or discourse. People can read it or not.

Alliance for Retired Americans and two labor unions file lawsuit against Treasury Dept. to block disclosure of personal and financial information to Musk and DOGE.
A 25-year-old who's worked for Elon Musk companies now has direct control over a Treasury system disbursements from which amount to a fifth of the US economy. He does not, our sources say, have "read only" access, but high-level admin privileges on a mainframe housing all the code.

What to know about Trump’s Gaza Strip proposal
WASHINGTON, Feb 5 (Reuters) - President Donald Trump's plan for the United States to "take over" Gaza, permanently displacing Palestinians who live there and creating the "Riviera of the Middle East," has upset Arab nations and Western allies and would overturn decades of American policy in the region.
WHAT DID TRUMP SUGGEST?
At a news conference on Tuesday with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Washington, Trump said he wanted to demolish the remaining structures in Gaza and transform the territory under U.S. "ownership."
He proposed transforming the seaside enclave into a resort that would draw people from around the globe and resettling Palestinians from Gaza to Egypt and Jordan.
"You'll make that into an international, unbelievable place. I think the potential and the Gaza Strip is unbelievable,” Trump said. “And I think the entire world, representatives from all over the world, will be there, and they'll live there. Palestinians also, Palestinians will live there. Many people will live there."

Trump at the National Prayer Breakfast announces that he's signing an order directing AG Pam Bondi to head a task force "to eradicate anti-Christian bias"
https://x.com/atrupar/status/1887549097877393751
It's not Christianity we'll fight to the death to prevent; it's Christian Nationalism dictating our government.
Just so we're clear.

Claims about USAID funding are spreading online. Many are not based on facts, and most are being spread from Trump’s administration and Elon Musk. Careful what you believe without doing research and checking the facts.
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said to reporters Tuesday that USAID had spent “$1.5 million to advance DEI in Serbia’s workplaces; $70,000 for the production of a DEI musical in Ireland; $47,000 for a transgender opera in Colombia, $32,000 for a transgender comic book in Peru.” Those claims were picked up and spread widely on social media throughout the week.
Only the grant to a Serbian organization called Grupa Izadji was awarded by USAID. Its stated aim is to “to advance diversity, equity and inclusion in Serbia’s workplaces and business communities.”

One day we're going to wake up to that man's obituary and not shed one tear.

Trump Appoints Paula White to Lead New Faith Office
President Donald Trump has signed an executive order to establish the White House Faith Office, appointing televangelist Paula White to lead it. This move has sparked discussions about the separation of church and state, with critics expressing concerns over the blending of religious and governmental roles. The office aims to promote faith-based initiatives and address what Trump terms as 'anti-Christian bias'.
“To say no to President Trump would be to say no to God.” ~ Televangelist Paula White
"We are in a spiritual war right now. . .let every demonic network that has aligned itself against the purpose, against the calling of President Trump, let it be broken. Let it be torn down in the name of the Lord." ~ Televangelist Paula White
https://x.com/TimothySandefur/status/1888337790964035623
Notation: Paula White who divorced her 1st husband, cheated on the 2nd, married a member of the band Journey and broke into the band's bank account, is accused of running a Ponzi scheme, and asked followers to send her their January salaries as "first fruit" offerings.
I want to say it so bad. . .sooooo BAD. . .

Lady, not saying the content is wrong, or the guy is not all over the news. the thread is begining to look like a continuation of others.
Only a suggestion, but perhaps if you could post within a ratio: 1 in 5 or something like that would keep the thread from being perceived as political. again, just a suggestion
