Sooner or later other nations are going to move on from the Dollar being the reserve currency so that the US can’t just use sanctions as a disapproval lever. Then we’re going to realize what real isolationism feels like.

To say “this isn’t what I voted for…” is not an apology to the rest of us or admitting you were wrong . It’s to say that what you voted for was racism, sexism, bigotry and pedophilia; not for your life to get harder and not for higher gas prices. And that just makes you an asshole.

Crowd sizes don’t matter and this kind of peacocking only makes ppl think that things are going well for the Ds. It doesn’t matter. Only the votes matter. And let’s face it, the race in TX is close, and Rs might not be showing up for Paxton, but that doesn’t mean they won’t vote for him.

If 4 Nazis are sitting at a table with an open seat and someone sits down. There are now 5 Nazis sitting at a table. Just keep this mind. They knew. They are accomplices to crimes. They should get lawyers.

We can not criticize MSA one day and then celebrate when it looks like they are on our side. This could be a psyop at worst, lazy reporting at best. We need to remain vigilant and get out and vote.

As if he wouldn’t write an EO renaming the country to the “United Stated of Trump” if he could. This mother-effe! Or more aptly “Trump Land”. This is the same fake patriotism the right (and all far-right movements) have used since forever. Same playbook.

“Originalism is an incoherent doctrine. It allows you to prove anything. Thus what it amounts to is a ritual invocation of the Founders, gesturing at this or that piece of text, before delivering whatever conclusion was approved on Fox News the night before.” www.liberalcurrents.com/we-have-no-s...

We Have No Supreme Court
The philosophical incoherence of originalism prevents the Court from performing its core functions as a supreme court.

Not showing up to a rally is easy for these ppl. But actually voting D when they believe voting for a D is worse than voting for a pedophile, well that’s hard for them to unlearn.

Everyone needs to remember this every time the left decides that he’s now an ally because he’s speaking out against Trump. He is not an ally. For God’s sake he saying that WW2 was a war of choice for the UK!! Which is to say that Hilter wasn’t evil? Disgusting!

It’s hard NOT to see that for all the distractions like cultural wars, we should be united against the class war that has clearly been waged. The audacity that they think they got rich all by themselves!

Senator - When is the capital police going to arrest someone, anyone, in the administration including Trump himself for contempt? There is clearly a crime here. Before you answer- if I defied a court order, how many chances would I get before I was arrested and compelled to comply?

He’s ignored court orders. He’s ignored the law and no one has held him accountable. Nobody outside of Congress believe that our laws are going to stop him from doing the things he says he’s going to do. Will states deploy the National Guard to protect our right to vote from federal troops?

This is just political maneuvering. He’s a toxic brand. They are distancing themselves to win an election. They have had no change of heart and they will be right back to supporting him after the election regardless of outcome.

The Constitution has always represented a core set of American values. By doing what he’s doing he’s just not saying he’s disinterested in following the law, he’s rejecting our value system.

This is a common business practice that is starting to emerge with private equity where they consolidate a market and then exploit the customers.

This aired just the once in 1998 on the live SNL show for which McKay wrote it. It was effectively banned as it never aired again. I wonder why. MEDIA-OPOLY

This also makes me worry about how the military will respond. Will they refuse to follow an illegal order? Whose orders will the Secret Service follow when he’s out of or removed from office, refuses to vacate? We have norms and a honor system in places we need laws and enforcement.

How do you think AI will impact the future of science? Nobel Prize laureates Brian Schmidt, David MacMillan and Craig Mello joined us in Seoul, South Korea to discuss how the world of science is changing due to AI. Watch here: www.nobelprize.org/events/nobel-pri…
Brian Schmidt sitting on stage, gesturing with hands. Text beside him reads: "AI is not accountable. Humans are accountable for how we use it." Below, it says: "Brian Schmidt, Nobel Prize in Physics 2011.

“The response to Trump’s attacks on these outlets should be for every news outlet to boycott the Trump White House. They don’t need to stand there to do their reporting.

Would love to see this. It would be healthier for Americans too. But I don’t see it happening. It would take a level of courage they don’t have.

I applaud the question and that she asked it. But from what I can tell he just ignored it and moved on. Which is not pressure. There needs to be pressure applied through not letting him duck and weave uncomfortable Qs. The entire press corp should be aligned on this.

Texans have known who Ken Paxton is for years. Let’s see how they vote in November. I bet when they’re in the booth, some will not bring themselves to vote for anyone that isn’t a Republican.

It also is no indication of how the election will go. Kamala had much bigger rallies than Trump and still lost. Everyone needs to get out to vote. The election is not certain.

Maybe his problem is that like most Republicans their identity is wrapped up in the party. It prevents them from seeing the truth in front of them.
