The White House decision to hobble Ukraine's defense and attack abilities is inexcusable. Trump = Putin. 86 47.

Art holds value. If anything, a piece will actually appreciate a little more from the notoriety of being stolen and recovered (see Mona Lisa). In times of high inflation and uncertain economic futures, art is a bigger and bigger deal all the time.

Except he moves money from one allocation to another (illegally) all the time. Do you think Congress approved his ad buys for his self-promotional commercials? How about money moved from DHS to fund assaults on voting rights? He runs it like he's the only decision maker, and does what he wants.

And what happens if they just ignore the letter? Absolutely nothing. No one will be held accountable. No money will be withheld. No one will go to jail. No consequences whatsoever. This is why they thumb their nose at the rule of law over and over again.

The Democrats are SO excited about taking Congress back, but I don't think it will matter. Trump rules through executive orders, impoundments, and a compliant SCOTUS. What does he need Congress for? Investigations and oversight are basically just anxious hand-wringing and sternly-worded letters.

If you intend to take the bar exam in the future, calling yourself a lawyer before admission can trigger a character and fitness investigation. State bar authorities view premature claims of being a lawyer as dishonest or misleading, which can delay or permanently block your admission to the bar.

But everyone KNOWS the law doesn't apply to people who work for Trump, right? Accountability is dead. Trump was right when he said he could shoot someone in the middle of 5th Avenue, and not lose any voters; and apparently never face any consequences either. Same applies to his toadies.

Don't tell me that Newsweek doesn't know the difference between socialism and communism. They absolutely 100% do. This is a hit job, pure and simple.

It's good to know that Trump can do the right thing. When cornered. And threatened with lawsuits. And publicly shamed by both parties... Yeah, that's where he really shines.

The sad part is that, despite his obvious deficiencies, he'll probably get reelected. This gross ignoramus (that's 144 times a regular ignoramus) will continue to have a voice in the landscape of America; and the rest of us ... we'll just lump it.

The outright, unflinching hypocrisy is breathtaking. What a staggeringly unaware thing to say out loud. HOW did those words come out of his mouth without his own internal organs jumping up through his neck and throttling his brain just to save the universe from this colossally ignorant statement?!

No way this passes muster with electoral laws; but they don't care, because there won't be any reckoning until AFTER the elections. Just like the war will be over right after the elections. Just like the economy will get better right after the elections. Just like that $5000 check... Oh Puh-lease.

She's an attention lover. NO WAY she doesn't spill to a journalist just how common this kind of grift really is. And I'm sure she's got dirt on Don Jr, and loads of others, too. And they know it. I fear for her safety; some unfortunate accident, or overdose, or something.

Every once in a while I remember how - just a generation ago - politicians would get blasted for lying to the public. Now, we just call that 'Tuesday'. The nonstop bald-faced lies without regrets or conscience is just the norm now.

I’m ok. Make no mistake: this is an attempt to target political enemies and weaponize federal law enforcement. For ten years, Trump has targeted me with baseless lies and smear campaigns. This is just the latest escalation in his campaign of political intimidation. I will not be silenced.

Just pointing out that Anthropic's AI model poses an "existential and catastrophic risk to humanity". That's not hyperbole, I'm writing their public filing. And the President refuses to regulate AI in any way. Why? Because he's making money.

ICE agents wearing plainclothes approached Bengal's car from behind with guns out. When Bengal tried to flee, an agent emptied the clip at Bengal's back His 5yo son was in the car with him. THIS is not policing. This is not enforcing immigration papers. This is not what America should be.

In his book 1984, George Orwell described how you know if you have power: it's not enough that you can tell people what to do; they might have done that anyway. Real power is the ability to inflict suffering. Trump is after power. The cruelty is the point. It's a feature, not a bug.

It doesn't really matter what you do, there will always be some segment of the people who are unhappy with it. At the end of the day, you are accountable to yourself; "Did I do the right thing?" If you can answer that with a clear conscience, then feel free to ignore the deluded naysayers.

Trump's plan to ease taxes on red dye diesel only saves like $0.40 / gallon. It's like someone drives your car off a cliff, then hands you a roll of duct tape as compensation. "That'll fix it." Too little, too late.

I watched the Seattle/LA game yesterday. The officiating can only be described as 'embarrassing'. 30 penalties for 280 yards. Completely Ridiculous. Hard enough having to play the other team; far worse when you have to play the refs, too.

I love her integrity, and her ability to speak truth to power. She's amazing. But actually GOVERNING is a totally different skill set. Maybe governor first? Or a cabinet post? I think I've had enough of non-executives 'learning on the job' in the oval office for one lifetime.
