Here are some highlights from a @nytimes.com investigation. youtube.com/shorts/ZnqWM...youtube.comDOJ’s new hiresYouTube video by Lawyer Oyer 37443
wengren.bsky.social @wengren.bsky.social · 07/10/2026"I don't know" is actually Trump's only honest defense. 060
wengren.bsky.social @wengren.bsky.social · 06/10/2026I don't like anything about Dr Oz, but yes, a "stick" of butter, 1/4 of a pound, does cost about $1, if you are a reasonable careful shopper. You typically have to buy a pound at a time or at Costco maybe two pounds. 000
wengren.bsky.social @wengren.bsky.social · 06/10/2026paraphrased: Trump said Iran should drop a nuclear bomb on LA or San Diego. We're not really sure if he meant it. 000
wengren.bsky.social @wengren.bsky.social · 06/10/2026"Promotion for the country." To whom are we trying to sell the USA? 000
wengren.bsky.social @wengren.bsky.social · 04/10/2026Who knew it would be Trump policies causing Americans to eat less beef and switch from gas to electric? 010
wengren.bsky.social @wengren.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Democratic legislators aren't perfect but Democratic voters don't choose ignorance as an asset. 042
wengren.bsky.social @wengren.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Wonder if he would think that if his daughter was in that school? 000
wengren.bsky.social @wengren.bsky.social · 27/09/2026I am all for "expel(ling) the war mongers", those who invaded Venezuela, bombed Iran school children and Caribbean fishing boats and are threatening Cuba and an Iran holocaust. 020
wengren.bsky.social @wengren.bsky.social · 26/09/2026This is the next step after claiming AI bots hallucinate. They don't hallucinate. They make mistakes. 030
wengren.bsky.social @wengren.bsky.social · 25/09/2026Waiting for Carlson's apology for helping put a poorly educated, corrupt, sexual assaulting, conman and felon in the Oval Office. It could start with "I was SO WRONG" and end with "I am SO SORRY". 020
wengren.bsky.social @wengren.bsky.social · 20/09/2026What kind of coverage do we get from journalists in the White House other than pics of Trump sleeping? Every White House answer is a lie or an insult or propaganda. Can we get the same actual info without access? 011
wengren.bsky.social @wengren.bsky.social · 18/09/2026It's not just that the First Lady is out of touch, it is that no one who works for her is any more in touch. No, its not about realigning the forks. 000
wengren.bsky.social @wengren.bsky.social · 18/09/2026It is terrible that this is GOP leadership. But worse is that GOP legislators and too many on the Supreme Court support it. It is their job to act. They refuse. 000
wengren.bsky.social @wengren.bsky.social · 18/09/2026Thinking Americans do understand that Trump's misdeeds, unchecked by our Congress and often our Supreme Court, are owned by all of us, Trump voters or not. We (US) Americans will pay the price for words and misdeeds. The most complicit are clueless but hopefully November brings change. 010
wengren.bsky.social @wengren.bsky.social · 14/09/2026Just like the Reflecting Pool, the White House grounds and Iran, everything Trump touches turns to crap. 000
wengren.bsky.social @wengren.bsky.social · 06/09/2026My "focus" on "progressive" was a response to, was Obama really progressive? He wasn't and didn't claim to be. Uninsured Americans needed healthcare. He got it passed after many others failed. Insurance companies + the GOP undermined cost restrictions, so it needs work. No surprise. 000
wengren.bsky.social @wengren.bsky.social · 06/09/2026Did President Obama ever claim to be a "progressive"? I don't think so. Biden was a more progressive president. But on healthcare, Obama had to find a way to prevent the GOP from derailing the ACA. He compromised to do so. Since its passage the GOP has made changes to increase costs. 100
wengren.bsky.social @wengren.bsky.social · 03/09/2026Sanders, AOC and Mamdami would fit neatly into the Democractic Party I remember from fifty years ago. 000
wengren.bsky.social @wengren.bsky.social · 03/09/2026Until Trump is out of office, I think it will always be premature to claim we have witnessed his dumbest (with a "b" ) action. 130
wengren.bsky.social @wengren.bsky.social · 01/09/2026Driscoll knows that. But its his duty to try. 0130
wengren.bsky.social @wengren.bsky.social · 04/08/2026"I'm sure he's learned his lesson." Collins lying for the GOP about Trump. The lesson Trump and his cronies learned is that GOP legislators won't punish their illegal and immoral misdeeds. No thoough they have sworn to do so, to uphold the Constitution. 000
wengren.bsky.social @wengren.bsky.social · 21/06/2026Fox "News" is a tool, as is Trump. The disease these days is the GOP, legislators and justices, moving us toward oligarchy. 000
wengren.bsky.social @wengren.bsky.social · 21/06/2026I am curious about the 21% who say attacking Iran neither created more problems than solved or vice versa. Do they think it did not create problems or is this the only answer that does not suggest that attacking Iran actually solved problems? 010
wengren.bsky.social @wengren.bsky.social · 20/06/2026It says competence matters. While the American people elected Trump, with the help of the Electoral College, it was GOP senators who green-lighted appointees to create the most incompetent administration in the past 100 years. And GOP legislators refused to stand in the way of their destruction. 000
wengren.bsky.social @wengren.bsky.social · 20/06/2026Correction: Trump is a FAILED businessman and he cheats on his taxes. 020
wengren.bsky.social @wengren.bsky.social · 20/06/2026Gore got more votes than Bush and the US people got: 9/11, botched Hurricane Katrina, unwinnable war in Afghanistan, unwinnable war in Iraq, US financial meltdown and the Great Recession, ...thanks to SCOTUS and the GOP 000
wengren.bsky.social @wengren.bsky.social · 09/06/2026If hospitals limit care for religious or other reasons, patients should be fully informed on admission. Methotrexate does not impact fertility. Removing a tube does. Catholic ERDS allow only the latter for ectopic pregancy. 040
wengren.bsky.social @wengren.bsky.social · 06/06/2026Which is why the Defense Department is considering "combining" militaries with Israel and using Israeli intelligence software instead of US systems? 053
wengren.bsky.social @wengren.bsky.social · 06/06/2026No doubt this is why those criticizing Clinton for an affair with an intern so enthusiastically endorsed Harris over Trump. 100

wengren.bsky.social @wengren.bsky.social · 01/06/2026Try using experts to create a peace agreement, actual diplomats, experienced negotiators, nuclear weapons experts. It worked for Obama. That and quit bombing the people you want to agree to a peace deal. 000
wengren.bsky.social @wengren.bsky.social · 30/05/2026Learning the lesson that no matter what harm Trump causes, US taxpayers will pay. 000
wengren.bsky.social @wengren.bsky.social · 27/05/2026What Miller actually meant was: "Based on what I've heard, we could balance the federal budget if the only dollars that went out of the treasury went to corporations and the wealthy. 000
wengren.bsky.social @wengren.bsky.social · 27/05/2026According to the White House it was Trump's 6 month "annual" physical, which makes just as much sense as anything else that comes out of this White House. 000
wengren.bsky.social @wengren.bsky.social · 18/05/2026Because the Trump administration and the GOP are still pushing the fantasy that there was no Covid pandemic. Anything to engender votes of the "poorly educated." 000
wengren.bsky.social @wengren.bsky.social · 12/05/2026"Trump lied", is not news. It is a foregone conclusion. Hoping at some point MAGA voters figure that out. 021
wengren.bsky.social @wengren.bsky.social · 12/05/2026And yet the ballroom and painting the reflecting pools keep popping into conversations. 030

wengren.bsky.social @wengren.bsky.social · 11/05/2026I am confused. We need more extensive trials for vaccines, more extensive than the billions who received Covid immunization, or we need to legalize drugs with limited testing because Trump thinks they revive dead people? Or should we just check who profits? 010
wengren.bsky.social @wengren.bsky.social · 09/05/2026When the entire Republican party in the White House, Congress and state legislatures all claim they "no nothing about" everything, will their supporters consider alternatives? 020
wengren.bsky.social @wengren.bsky.social · 04/05/2026Not after it's painted blue. No more reflection. 000
wengren.bsky.social @wengren.bsky.social · 03/05/2026Good thing or bad? The Trump administration began by firing hundreds of fed employees including IGs who provided oversight. Justice Dept. has fired those upholding judicial ethics or forced resignations. The CDC purged hundreds. Aren't fed expertise losses the GOP/Trump objective? 050
