The American blockade has limited effectiveness because ships can just travel along the coast into Pakistani and then Indian coastal waters.

Was the navy secretary fired because he wasn’t hard enough on Senator Mark Kelly for stating what is the basic policy of the military on obeying illegal orders?

Trump and Patel have moved the FBI relatively more toward politics and optics and away from the criminal justice mission.
FBI agents were pulled away from their work to focus on immigration, despite that ICE got massive funding and a mass of new ICE agents.
FBI agents determined that people were peacefully protesting and that there was nothing to investigate. The Trump administration ordered them to investigate anyways.
Some FBI agents were pushed out or forced to quit on principle. These were trained agents doing their jobs well, now out of the agency.
The way Trump runs the bureaucracy is similar to how many dictators run their bureaucracies. He hires, promotes, and fires based on loyalty, not competency. Overtime, this makes agencies less effective, less principled, less competent, more corrupt, and more loyal to the dictator. This is how many dictators have ineffective governments, and their people suffer as a result.

An army more vulnerable to the flu, in both training and war, is a weaker army compared to one less vulnerable to the flu.

Utter nonsense. Requiring public schools to post the ten commandments in their classrooms is forcing a particular religion down the throat of every child, using taxpayer funds. It is advocating the value of the Bible over other religions or non-religion. If a Muslim majority school district required every classroom to post lines from the Quran, people would be outraged. Unless the class is literally studying religion or that area of history, posting religious texts is advocating that or those religions and is an act of establishing an official religion.

“Hundreds of Afghan refugees who helped the United States fight the Taliban may be sent to the Democratic Republic of Congo after the Trump administration halted their U.S. resettlement, an advocacy group said.
…
The Democratic Republic of Congo, a Central African country where the Afghans have no ties, is experiencing one of the world’s worst humanitarian crises, with more than 600,000 refugees there already after decades of armed conflict.
…
Trump has blocked virtually all paths to the U.S. for Afghan allies, more than 190,000 of whom were resettled in the U.S. from August 2021 until mid-2025. Afghan allies and their family members have been detained by U.S. immigration officials, with one of them dying last month after less than 24 hours in custody. (Immigration and Customs Enforcement said the death of Mohommad Nazeer Paktyawal, 41, was being investigated.)”

History involved many genetic replacements. When countries find ancient bones buried in their lands, it’s usually the case that the people who live there now are not related to those ancient people.
