And, if she survives, the only option is to bludgeon her to death with a sledgehammer. What a world… what a world.

That's Paxton's punishment for saying that Trump's Texas convention hurt Paxton's polling. Those two deserve each other.

And, even if Smith was at an NBA game in Atlanta, that's the basis upon which they want to tie Smith to a conspiracy with Fani Willis? Pretty weak sauce.

Presumably, Paxton has already gotten the call from the White House telling him that he's on his own now. That'll go well.

Eric Schmitt is a real U.S. Senator? I keep looking for his apology for getting his facts wrong.

This is a guy who thinks he has a constituency that would support him in a run for the presidency. And he’s trying to create some space between himself and Trump that Vance is unable to create. But, for the almost 6 years that Trump has been in power, Kennedy has never shown independence.

Our children are boarding planes and then disembarking as canines and felines. Thank you, Senator Tuberville for rescuing them from this furry fate.

It might be good. I'll probably try it. But, I'm pretty sure that everybody can "stop eating it". Do you really need the influencer-style hyperbole, NYT?

The one place that I can think of that fits this model in Charlottesville is occupied by Luce. It’s a tiny hole in the wall on 2nd Street NW, just off the Mall. When I first moved here in 1992 it was occupied by FatCatz Chili and there have probably been a dozen food startups in there since.

He certainly “did that”. But I don’t know that he could stop it now. I think Iran now has the upper hand and they’ll control the movement of petroleum through the Mideast.

"We are 'carrying' almost every country in the world"? How about "almost every country in the world is providing us with things that we want"? They are serving our needs and desires and we have the luxury of enjoying the fruits of their labor.

My friend was planning to retire from a career with the federal government at the end of 2025. But, DOGE offered to pay him for the full year if he left at the end of June. "Thanks, suckers."

He may want to be very careful. As Chairman of the Board of the Kennedy Center, he's a fiduciary and legally obliged to act in the best interest of the organization. He seems to be leaving a very public trail of evidence that he's failing his fiduciary duties.

"I can provide funds to preserve this institution, but I'll only do so if my name is on the building?" What kind of a sociopath does that?

I don't even get the "why" of this. Why does Trump with all of his ill-gotten riches need to have anybody else bankroll his wedding?

Absolutely. Congress is "less qualified" to understand A.I. But, there could be a world in which there is "a" Congress, not primarily motivated by profit, that could rely on its own stable of trusted experts to ensure that A.I. is deployed in order to serve our national interests

It doesn't matter. Treasury money is fungible. It's irrelevant where it comes from. It's all available to serve the national interests. And Lutnick knows that.

Even if you had a legally enforceable contract to get the $5,000 in exchange for your vote, you’d still have to sue him to get it. And after you win, he’d keep appealing it for years, until you die, run out of money for legal costs, or give up out of sheer exhaustion.

I guess I might buy the connection if the price was $88,000. But the article says that it’s “more than $88,000’. In that case, wouldn’t the 88/HH lose relevance?

Bessent, on the other hand, is much more ambivalent. "Keep my head on my neck, detach it, whatever. I don't much care one way or the other."

The puppet government will be overthrown. The new government will seize control of the oil fields restored at American taxpayer expense. Thanks, suckers.

And then the puppet government in Venezuela falls and a new regime takes back their oil fields which have been rebuilt courtesy of the U.S. taxpayers. Thanks, suckers.

And not quite the flex Trump thinks it is, being as how Canada occupies more of North America than does the U.S.

“‘We were close to reaching (an) … agreement with the US, but they made changes, including threats on French language and culture and Canadian culture that would never be acceptable for that reason,’ Mr. Carney said in French.” Trump’s team wants to take away what makes Canada different from the US.

I think this may be related to my annoyance with service-providers who want me to confirm my appointments and reservations. We had an agreement; I’ll let them know if I want to change it.
