BFD. Trump awarded Rush Limbaugh the country’s highest civilian honor, the Presidential Medal of Freedom, only because Limbaugh was a pig like trump. This is a token gift to try and bribe the crews silence. After all the damage these crew members endured it is insulting to them.

Trump wants praise for refusing his salary. You don’t need one when you use the office to get rich. The most corrupt president in history doesn’t need a paycheck. We need a Congress that will hold him accountable. On Nov. 3, let’s elect one.

Cory Booker — who is being floated as a 2028 contender, and who just the other day did not deny the possibility of wanting to become leader of the Senate Democrats — promotes the book of Brett McGurk, a chief architect of the US-backed Israeli genocide of Palestine:
Cory Booker tweet:
@brett_mcgurk
 is one of our nation’s great experts on the Middle East and has spent decades working at the highest levels of diplomacy through some of the region’s most consequential moments.

I’m really looking forward to reading Brink and learning from his firsthand account of the extraordinary efforts to free the hostages, and confront the extraordinary challenges of the region.
