Not for free right? So, let's do the math. 500,000 metric tons of diesel is about $500 million. A million worth $1 billion dollars. This looks an aid program for Russia and an effective disabling of US sanctions. This strengthens the Kremlin and is a threat to US, allied interests.

Mike Rogers went full MAGA against Abdul El-Sayed. He may have scored points with MAGA, but he sounded like an Islamophobic bigot, repeatedly invoking Hamas, Hezbollah, and Al-Qaeda to turn his opponent’s Muslim identity into a national security threat.

Here's something I wrote for @politico.com back in 2019, right after the really important ruling in which a 5-4 Court turned its back on more than six decades of Eighth Amendment jurisprudence: www.politico.com/magazine/sto...

It's Neil Gorsuch's Supreme Court Now, Not Anthony Kennedy's

Monday's 5-4 decision is a foreboding omen of the rancor yet to come.

The standoff in the White House presents the specter of criminal contempt, which would plainly require the appointment of a special counsel. But this crowd would try to fight that. In the meantime, quick reminder that Kelly on his own can impose civil contempt to force compliance.

Trump‘s cash gifts to government employees, violate ethics rules, which exist to promote loyalty to the United States over loyalty to one person. He doesn’t get to break the law just because cash bonuses were “his longtime practice” in the private sector. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

washingtonpost.com

Trump gave $45,000 cash gifts to Natalie Harp, two other close aides

Financial disclosures show the sums were equivalent to nearly one-third of each of their salaries. Experts say the gifts are without precedent and may violate the law.
