For the life of me, I'll never understand why, for example, family court judges, are assigned to determine consumer protection and breach of contract claims. Go back to listening to spouses yell at each other and let experts discuss over here in our own lane.

Omg this is fantastic. Trump seems to have found a whipping boy for his own historic unpopularity: the GOP toadies who back his every whim. Maybe I'm overthinking, but he reposted this today, a screed about how Trump voters are disappointed with Republican Party failures.

I don't think the GOP fully grasp how badly they are fucking up right now. 
I'm talking to people who normally have ZERO interest in politics who are legitimately pissed off.
They are not seeing the major reform they thought would happen and are REALLY MAD about it.
No true accountability.
No true mass deportations.
No meaningful decrease in the deficit.
Lots of very long vacations and no work.
No bills being passed that REDUCE the government involvement in their lives.
I'm very worried the GOP is sleepwalking toward a midterm reckoning they don't see coming.
People are pissed off that they voted Trump into office and then the
GOP continues to slow-walk every reform people want.
Where are all the DOGE cuts that were promised?
Where is the SAVE ACT?
Why haven't we defunded the Taliban yet?
Why are bills passing the House and then disappear in the Senate?
Why are the GOP still funding Left-wing NGOs that target and hate
MAGA Republicans?
Why are members of the GOP pushing for mass amnesty instead of mass deportations?
People are waking up and they aren't happy about it.
People believed they were voting for the Trump agenda. and instead, many feel like they're getting the same old Washington.
If Republicans in Congress don't start producing tangible results, they're going to discover that frustration has consequences...
...And by the time they realize how deep-seeded that frustration is it may already be too late.

Chauvin was, in fact, the cause of Floyd’s death. He used a technique that MPD and most other agencies have banned, specifically because it causes death. And the crime for which he was convicted is unintentional second-degree murder, which by definition does not require intent to kill.

Bill Clinton got House and Senate Democrats (zero Republicans) to pass a bill that cut the deficit by $500 billion through a mix of tax increases and spending cuts, setting the table for years of economic growth and a fiscal surplus. The party's reward was a crushing defeat in the 1994 midterms.

Abdul El-Sayed on capitalism: “I’m capitalist who just knows about capitalism. I have a bad habit of reading, I’m so sorry.”
We’ve spoken about capitalism versus socialism.

Do you want to talk about capitalism? Let’s talk about capitalism. Are you recording? Capitalism is about leveraging the laws of supply and demand to efficiently allocate capital expenditure to maximize value. When capitalism works, it’s because you have free entry and exit into markets. So if you believe in capitalism, you have to believe in government regulation to protect markets. In fact, right now, we have exactly the opposite. You don’t have to be a socialist to believe that you should be taxing billionaires their wealth. In fact, if you are a capitalist, you should believe in that. So, I’m capitalist who just knows about capitalism. I have a bad habit of reading, I’m so sorry.

Holy shit. www.wired.com/story/a-civi...
This past May, a twin-engine Beechcraft King Air medevac plane took off from Roswell, New Mexico, and headed west to the town of Ruidoso to pick up a patient. It shouldn’t have been a challenging flight for the two pilots and two nurses aboard. The temperature was 69 degrees; the sky was clear. The 60-mile journey normally takes a half hour, at most.

But once airborne, the plane ran into trouble. At the White Sands Missile Range that night, US military personnel were conducting a GPS jamming exercise that left the King Air pilots—and anyone else within hundreds of miles—unable to use modern navigation systems. Forced to revert to older technology, ones that they rarely if ever use, the medevac pilots got disoriented and crashed into the side of a mountain. There were no survivors.
