"If Trump grants her clemency, she is prepared to testify that Trump is innocent". Sounds on the up and up to me.

Lutnick is right that Trump brought back the golden age - Gold has never been so expensive as it is during his administration. I wonder why.

This is so true. Any organization whatsoever or work with respect to supplies, signs, whatever - these people assume automatically it must have been Soros & Co. Can't possibly be the case that some people simply took care of it.

The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.

All of this is fucking senseless. Minnesota did not have an immigration problem. Trump sent his Nazi thugs here because he's racist against Somali people and to own libs like Tim Walz. Now two Minnesotans are dead and Minneapolis is on the verge of going up in flames. None. Of. This. Was. Necessary.

Walz should just follow the MAGA lead and say "yeah, so what, I myself got a kickback from the fraud - that's what any smart person would do" and then insult reporters who ask about it further.

This is an irresponsible headline from the NYT. Should be called "Science Changes: That's Why We Should Trust It" since that's the conclusion of the piece. Instead, the NYT generates skepticism where there is none though a deceptive title.

Jack Smith, p. 27: "There is no historical analog for what President Trump did in this case … [W]hat he was not free to do was violate Federal law and use knowing-- knowingly false statements about election fraud to target a lawful government function. That he was not allowed to do."

America has 925 billionaires as of this year. Collectively they have a record $6.9 trillion in wealth. The bottom 50% of Americans control $4.2 trillion in wealth. When 925 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

Plato doesn't mean that tyrants can't have a good time and enjoy their misrule. He just means that tyrants are slaves to their passions, and so internally chaotic. As a result, it's not possible for them to have peace, or well-being (which is different from enjoyment).

This is a very useful and helpful point. I think most people project the general narrative of rulings in their lifetime to the court in general, historically. In truth, the SCOTUS 'protecting the minority' is a historical deviation from that narrative as opposed to the narrative itself.

Trump's numbers among Latinos are "strongly" collapsing, or "powerfully" folding up. For Trump it's the muscularity that matters, not the thing being muscularly shaped.
