There are different consent standards for "two vs one party recording" in different states. FOR PRIVATE CONVERSATIONS. Dumbass. You have no expectation of privacy in public, and certainly not as a public official taking questions. I hope this ends his career. Stifling his constituents.

First amendment gives you the right to speak, not to be respected for your very wrong opinion (lies). Dummy.

Apparently for her, the ambassadorship was a high-dollar party bus. I'm so surprised by this.

As well they should. And we more than 'investigations'. There needs to be a swarm of impeachments. President, cabinet, SCOTUS, and complicit Congress members. We've got a corrupt, fascist regime that needs to be ripped out by the roots. And we need to ensure this can't happen again.

Thank you for that encouragement. She's doing better every day.

Did they even audition her? Like, see if she can speak at the podium? Or is it just the usual 'look' he goes for and that's it?

Oh look! It's that 'lawfare' we hear so much about. Every accusation is a confession. Also, if we're really doing this: deport Melania. I don't think the Einstein Visas were meant for sex workers. www.bbc.com/news/world-u...

What is the Einstein visa? And how did Melania Trump get one?
In 2001 Melania Knauss scored a coveted visa reserved for people of "extraordinary ability".

Yes. The concern is they won't give up power even after they lose elections. And then we're in a full on dictatorship. A Christian Nationalist one, albeit led by a useful idiot.

Given the comments on 'nuking' our cities and those who defend them, a refresher on Dietrich Bonhoeffer's "On Stupidity" is in order. Here's a short explainer. The Anatomy of Stupidity - A Surrender of Independence - Group Conformity - Resistance to Facts www.philosopheasy.com/p/dietrich-b...

Man, I was screaming at the screen last night. "STFU you duplicitous taint!" When he equated the current MAGAts to Dems who supported the ACA I about lost it. He's trying to rehabilitate himself and to that I say go TF away to the irrelevance you deserve.

One of the best college English courses I took was this exactly. Write something today, and the instructor grades it. We also read a piece of lit on our own time and discussed it in class.

I fully endorse and applaud this. People are worried about AI killing us all. Nah. What I'm worried about is people outsourcing their thinking. We're already on a path to stupidity. Maybe we should use our brains more. Just a thought 🤔

Oh, great! The party of division and name-calling is going to bring both parties together now.

But is she concerned? Does she think they've learned their lesson? 🙄

At the bottom of it all, I am just tired of assholes. Selfish, money grubbing assholes with no higher purpose in life. I have no use for them. They aren't interesting. They aren't creative. They just have drive for money and power. Want, want, want. Nothing of higher value to offer the world.

Impeach and remove. Since he's good with the "take out" thing.

Spare us the false piety. He knew what he was doing. And please, please can we be rid of Douche Asshat the "interviewer".

I read a long New Yorker piece on this guy. He's just another tech bro clown.

Thank you. I hope that's true. And she gets all the treats, kitty grass, comfy beds, and outside patio time she wants.

Tech bros have no talents. Oh, they have incredible levels of ambition - but to no useful end. They just want. Money and power without purpose. They don't understand creativity, or learning, or art for its own sake. They aren't the least bit interesting.

Our beautiful, sweet, brave little Winona lost her leg to cancer. It was difficult to decide what to do. Provide hospice with all of her limbs intact, or let the vet take the leg in the hope of a longer life with, hopefully, less pain. I'm telling myself we did the right thing. She's still sweet.

I'm watching a lot of college football. It's all anti-trans, "my opponent let criminals go free", and 'socialism is communism' b.s.

They are all cowards. Climbers with no real purpose. They just want money and power for it's own sake. The only thing that makes them talk tough is when their positions are threatened.
