Puppy Killer Kristi Noem is as over-her-head at DHS as Pete Hegseth as SecDef and Tulsi Gabbard as DNI. Presumably, that's to make sure none of them make a decision that Trump-Miller-Vought haven't already signed off on.

Puppy Killer Kristi waited over 72 hours to send FEMA's urban search and rescue teams to flash flood stricken Central Texas. Similar teams from Mexico had been on the ground for two days by then.

In disaster response, time is of the essence. That delay meant more people died.

"Reports (?) say wealthy elite are leaving [the UK] over tax changes...but hard data is tricky to find." In other words, the claim can't be confirmed.

A more basic issue is this. If rich foreigners want the benefits of living in the UK, but refuse to pay a bent farthing for them, what are you losing if they leave?
