Donald Trump made a deal with Putin for 36 million barrels of Russian diesel, but that amount won’t move US fuel prices lower. It’ll only fund Putin’s bloody war machine in Ukraine. Putin continues to play Trump like a fiddle.

Trump has gone too far. He needs to resign. Americans will never bow to Putin & his dictatorship. I grew up during the Cold War. Putin is the same ruthless former KGB head he has always been. My prayers are with President Zelensky and the Ukrainian people tonight.

Here's a graphic that does a better job of conveying the point than my original post: even by the (insane) standards of the first Trump administration, #SCOTUS is receiving—and granting—a truly unprecedented number of applications for emergency relief from the federal government:
A chart that shows the number of emergency applications filed and granted by the Supreme Court during each presidency dating back to George W. Bush, with the data annualized to show the far-higher frequencies since 2017, but especially during the Trump I and Trump II administrations.

Xi, an actual Communist leader who silences dissent, is slavishly adored by Trump. As for pretend communists in America, they are treated as enemies. I can’t wait for this sickness to end.

$4 BILLION. That’s how much the Trump Administration has now spent paying companies to cancel offshore wind projects that would have lowered your electric bill. Yes, you heard that right: they are PAYING to keep more energy off the grid and your bills higher.

So many sneering elitist journalists with snarky posts over the past months that the Reflecting Pool story was trivial. It was so trivial that the DC US Attny presented false evidence to a grand jury to indict an innocent man to please the President while they both lied about it.

If you’re watching Fauci’s testimony remember that science isn’t an ideology. It doesn’t lie. It evolves. COVID-19 was a once-in-a-century pandemic caused by a brand-new virus, recommendations changed because the evidence changed. That’s not deception. That’s how it works.

Here’s what I want to see happen at a Senate hearing. A Senator asks a witness who won the 2020 election. The witness makes an ambiguous answer. The Senator then says the witness is either lying or an idiot, and is this unqualified for the position. The Senator then yields the rest of his time.

“Markwayne Mullin…has said publicly that he wants the agency to be quieter about how it carries out immigration enforcement.” Seems to me we’re better off if we know what they’re doing. Considering what they do in public, one shudders to think what they’ll do “quietly.”

SCOTUS will allow Alabama to use a congressional map that a lower court found intentionally discriminated against Black voters. A Court so fundamentally hostile to the rights of minority voters places it at odds with democracy itself. This is Chief Justice John Roberts’ legacy.
