Donald Trump is once again trying to defend accepting bribes from foreign figures.
In an angry post on Truth Social Sunday night, Trump claimed he’d done nothing wrong by accepting a $400 luxury jet from the Qatari royal family to replace Air Force One.

It sounds like a mad experiment. Except it is real. Israeli leaders are wrestling with the puzzle of how to starve an entire civilian population to the brink of mass famine and get away with it.
The aim is to bring more than 2 million Palestinians to the point of extinction, so that they become willing to be ethnically cleansed through accepting so-called voluntary emigration.

How to make a bad problem much much worse...
________________________________
Protecting the nation from polluters is a core function of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. But in the last few months, federal enforcement of major violations of environmental laws appears to have ground to a halt.
A review of data from the Department of Justice and EPA found that the Trump administration has not filed any new cases against major polluters in its first three months. Similarly, the number of minor civil and criminal enforcement cases has also significantly declined since President Donald Trump took office on January 20.
The hands-off approach to environmental enforcement comes amid Trump’s repeated pledges to go easier on polluters. His administration has begun rolling back dozens of regulations, granting exemptions from federal air quality requirements to coal plants, and rewriting pollution standards for cars and trucks.

"New data sheds light on the advantages of spending time gardening. In a first-of-its-kind study, researchers from the University of Edinburgh investigated if there might be a link between gardening and changes in intelligence our lifetimes. The study compared the intelligence test scores of participants at age 11 and age 79. The results showed those who spent time gardening showed greater lifetime improvement in their cognitive ability than those who never or rarely did."
