The reason why I, Stephen Miller, went to jail is because of John Thune. My imprisonment rests squarely on John Thune's shoulders. From my lips to God's ears.....

I think we are well beyond giving this administration the benefit of the doubt. Every violation of the order should force the administration to appear back in front of the judge to explain what they are doing. This lawless administration must be brought to heel.

If you have a Google email or Google account, I can show you how to set it up for yourself. I'm not going to publish. I have a day job 😅 You go to google.com/alerts, log in and enter the subject you want to monitor. See pics for more details. Good luck
Instructions on how to receive emails from Google's web crawler.

Go to google.com/alerts and login. Then you go to the search topic bar and type in the item you want to monitor. Press enter. Go through the options. Specify how often you want to receive emails. Create the alert. After that, Google will send you a daily digest email at the interval you request.

The so-called president of the United States is a massive money launderer and cut off by the bank that discovered it. Yet the story barely registers with the legacy media. What a disgrace.

Dollars are made of our permission and destroyed by taxation. I think it hits harder: We give permission to kill Palestinians. Our permission is propping up OpenAI. We do not give permission for poor kids to eat at school. We do not give permission for the poor sick to live. None of this competes.

Apparently, OpenAI is trying to pitch Trump on the US government buying a 5% stake in openAI?!? Saying it differently, OpenAI is soliciting the government for a f*cking taxpayer funded bailout?!?
