DHS is a non-stop Kristi propagandizing operation 24/7. Despite everything the massive agency does every day, it’s all about Kristi all the time. Yesterday she rides horses. Today she’s signing stuff. Tomorrow she’s on a plane. Then new Kristi paintings. DHS - The Reality Show.

Maureen Dowd NYT on defence sec Hegseth:

Trump, who often casts by looks, may have liked Hegseth’s slick style and pretty face. But even the Emperor of Chaos must realize this Princess of Chaos has to go.

Maggie Haberman of NYT says Trump wanted to do tariff tricks in first term.
Seems he was oppose by grown-up advisers who blocked his plan.
Now the grown-ups have been replaced by advisers practice in Harslikhan.

Dutton has short selective memory after declaring himself today a champion of multiculturalism.

Despite his weaponisation and cruelty inflicted on the Tamil family as Home Affairs Minister. #auspol #qanda #abc730

May3 election means campaign all-but suspended for ANZAC Day and Easter. That probably better for Labor as limits Dutton, but still messy.

Trump’s parents migrated to USA. Marco Rubio’s parents migrated there. Elon Musk a foreigner. Prob others in Trump circle of sycophants. Yet his toughest MAGA appeal is anti-immigration.
