As I have noted before at least four different NATO intelligence services have comprehensive transcripts of the Kushner-Witkoff WhatsApp chats with their Russian counterparts. They say exactly what Dexter reports here. And they have been thoroughly authenticated.

Instead of saying "the Kennedy Center board decided to close" we should note that "a group of Trump appointees including Laura Ingraham and Dan Scavino decided to shut it down"

How not surprising that a president who acts like a petty mob boss is holding one of our nation’s treasured institutions hostage until we meet his conditions—that is, putting his stupid name on the building. I say we just put it in mothballs until he is gone.

To Democrat Leadership — Please talk with Democrats running as “Democratic Socialists.” Have them use the name Progressives. Too many independent voters aren’t aware of the difference between “socialism”and “communism.” Otherwise you’re shooting yourselves in the feet in 2026/2028

Trump had hotel bankruptcies in Toronto in 2015 time period & in Vancouver in 2020. He didn’t own the properties, but his licensed brand was prominent on the two failed ventures.Trump’s name was removed from both buildings. Of course this has nothing to do with his tariff war with Canada…

To paraphrase: "It's cool, the President said in the executive order telling the Post Office to do something illegal that they can't do anything illegal, so who knows, maybe it'll be legal, we can't say, it's just too early."
The true “source of any injury” to the States would be the
downstream action that the Secretary “might take in the
future” to implement §2(a). Trump v. New York, 592 U. S.,
at 133–134. Emphasis on might. Section 2(a) can be implemented only “[t]o the extent feasible and consistent with
applicable law.” 91 Fed. Reg. 17125. And as the Court explained in another case involving a Presidential directive
with a similar qualifier: “Any prediction how the Executive
Branch might eventually implement” §2(a) while balancing
feasibility and lawfulness “is ‘no more than conjecture’ at
this time.” Trump v. New York, 592 U. S., at 131. The Secretary’s “eventual action will reflect both legal and practical
constraints, making any prediction about future injury just
that—a prediction.” Id., at 133; see 91 Fed. Reg. 17125.

The only thing that was “allowed” was children stating their pronouns & names. Kids tell teachers which name and we do it. As a boy, who got his looks from his mother, I correct led people who said she/her (Mom liked my hair longer). People respected when I corrected them. It’s that simple. #Blues
