We got a Costco membership for the first time in our lives today. They asked why & I said because treat your workers well, you value diversity, & you didn’t cave in to authoritarian demands. He said: “We’ve been getting lots of folks saying that, thanks for joining.” Who needs a gallon of ketchup?

Would Adams be prosecuted if he opposed Trump’s immigration policies? Yes. If this isn’t the politicization of federal law enforcement, what is?

60% of those in nursing homes have their bills paid by Medicaid. Where do they go if that funding stops? How many of them, and their families, are Republicans?

A brilliant piece of diplomatic theatre today. After Russian drones again violated Moldova’s airspace & exploded close to populated areas, the Russian ambassador was summoned to the Foreign Ministry. As he entered the meeting, he was confronted with parts of the exploded drones. (🎥 IPN, Moldova)

I think the public agencies responsible for vaccination efforts also publish health statistics. Will they report increases in illnesses and deaths that vaccines could’ve prevented or will that information no longer be released or published?

As a narcissist, I doubt Trump has friends, just people he exploits and they exploit him in return. I don’t think he sees allies as having value. If he can’t exploit them as he wishes, screw them. If they don’t accept his orders they’ll be punished.

The fact-free world of Donald Trump. “During Trump’s first term, the FAA began a program to hire air traffic controllers with the conditions that Trump decried.” www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Analysis | Trump launched air controller diversity program that he now decries
At a news conference, Trump read a list of conditions he called disqualifying, but his administration started such hiring in 2019.
