March 17, 2026 Yesterday, President Donald J.

Yesterday, #Trump continued to #demand that other countries help the US reopen the Strait of #Hormuz for tanker traffic, but 1 by 1, they #declined. It is a dangerous business, & since Trump launched the war without consulting anyone, they don’t seem inclined to help him out of the mess he created.

Trump steps up pressure on European allies to help protect strait of Hormuz US president says it is ‘only appropriate’ for Europe to help, and warns failure to do so would be ‘very bad’ for Nato

Clean up your own damn mess Trump!

"Japan, Australia and the UK said they have no plans to send ships to help secure the strait of Hormuz, the vital waterway that Iran has mostly blocked to oil tanker traffic, as Donald Trump ramps up pressure on allies to provide support."

You’re not rejected
nowadays but get declined-
Still, what a bummer!

A close up of my face, making it look very long, my eyes are at the top of the photo looking possibly angry, but my mouth is in a weird soft square shape like I'm about to Kirby inhale some pasta. Green tank top straps are there, a wisp of hair is about my right eye.

Me laying down, sideways, just the upper bust profile. My expression is that of perhaps a pained wink, with my upper teeth sticking out from my lips lightly, chin tucked and puckered inwards with my right hand crossing my chest in a slightly fancy awaiting manner. There is a Mandragora plushie from the final fantasy series in the background, also laying on the bed.

I look like Smaug the dragon about to lay down some fire with this expression, fr fr. My eye brows are all curved up, mouth open ready to...drop fire, I look kinda crazy honestly. Green tank top straps are holding this fire back

Absolute goofy expression, my chin is tilted up with my head looking like a lumpy circle. There's a bitten smile with my upper teeth holding on to most of my bottom lip, eyes are shut tight and you get a clear shot up inside of my nostril holes. Hair is wispy, back in two kind of clips so you just see what's left in the front. The words, "Craft Room" are in letters on the wall above my head.

I felt cute, might delete later 💕

Opinion | The GOP's megabill makes the same economic mistake Republicans have made for decades The legislation misunderstands how economic growth actually works.

“ #Boushey has documented how sustainable #growth requires widespread #prosperity, not just wealth concentration. In recent decades, as the wealth of the top 1% has exploded, both *economic mobility and growth* have #declined.”
