The Times talks about universities the way Hillary Clinton talked about “super-predators.”

To be clear, Mr. Attorney General, the 1st Cir struck down your policy after full adversary briefing on 9/18. Rather than seek clarification on whether it took effect immediately, you tried to fly still more people to 3d countries so it would be too late for them. On 9/23 it found out & stopped you.
Without even allowing the government a chance to respond, and in the dark of night, a federal appeals court blocked us from conducting all third-country removals of illegal aliens, an entirely legal and invaluable tool to stem the tide of illegal immigration. We will immediately seek relief from the Supreme Court, which previously granted a stay in this very same case.

Bessent said on CNBC last week that we’re going to tell all our allies they’re either for us or against us. It sounds like we told Canada.

He hoped to keep the matter private, which would have helped Miller’s chance of winning the election.

Has she been asked if she would support him if he wins the nomination? She’s not acting like she’s afraid people would vote for Rogers. She’s acting like she would.

Nobody knows how to lie. Nobody can play the game. They do this garbage all the time, roll it out like it’s from the goddamn Central Committee. Same words. You stagger it. Start five days ago. Plant it with a lesser Hill reporter. Then the social media.

Even more amazing is that no one can sue Trump personally (yes I realize you can sue the administration) while he is President, ostensibly because the President doesn’t have time for personal lawsuits which could be weaponised. Yet he can constantly sue people?

Actually, we *should* be able to expect the president of the United States to be able to restrain himself from personally threatening to kill the negotiators from another country. It's not that unreasonable at all, you pathetic toady.

Trump keeps unilaterally marking up the agreement and, because his changes are written, he claims the terms are IN WRITING.

The suit over the UFC White House cage-fighting extravaganza alleges breathtakingly corrupt commercial exploitation of the nation’s most cherished monuments. Once again, the challenge is “standing.” When he f-cks all of us, none of us have standing. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

I like when KAT volunteers that his mother was looking down on him from heaven more than I like when interviewers bring it up. KAT, how did it impact your game having your dead mother looking down on you from heaven?
