Americans should just not go to work when Congress shutsdown. It's only fair, and it might send a message.

Is carrying bullets okay, though?

Where does reading enjoyable novels, nice, long walks in nature, time with family, preparing great meals, going to the theater or movies, playing catch with the kid, a lazy afternoon picnic, seeing the world, and all that other "non-work" stuff fit into this scenario, Dr. Oz?

They may use it to stage a "kinder, gentler" ICEcapade wherein everyone is treated humanely and by the book. I'm actually not kidding.

But chances are higher that they'll triple down on the brutality to demonstrate they won't be intimidated by libs, and destroy the opportunity to mend their PR.

I believe Eisenhower's contribution, if it can be called that, was to introduce or embrace the "domino theory" regarding SE Asia and communism. Kennedy and Johnson used it to justify U.S. involvement in Vietnam.

I wouldn't go anywhere near it if he brought a charcuterie tray.

Most boggling to me is the fact that, aside from some possible embarrassment and a few disgruntled spouses, appearing in the Epstein files carries no consequences.

In some circles, it would be viewed as a badge of honor.

What do Sotomayor, Kagan, and Jackson have to say about this?

Tomorrow, he'll claim he's cured cancer and MAGAs will believe it.

Trump desperately wants to get interest rates as near zero as possible. Margin calls are already crippling his One Percenter pals:

Canada, Portugal, or Ireland, which will not extradite to the U.S. for political prosecution.

If the GOPhers in Congress see this it could mean trouble for Trump.

What are these files? Intakes from victims/witnesses collected by the FBI?

This battleground election is on May 19. Make sure you have enough champagne on hand to celebrate his win.

Health insurance companies are still collecting via autopay on canceled policies, but at their new rates.

I suspect there are 150 million Americans or so, mostly white, who are barely aware of what's going on in the country, but they're all over the latest deal from Amazon Prime.

It's a sideshow that doesn't bode well for Trump, but I doubt Elon cares one way or the other.

Epstein aside, it's how D.C. rolls, as anyone whose been a player in politics, including pundits, knows. Depravities are lobbyists' secret weapons. When your side is winning, it's a "wink-wink" thing. When it's the other side, it's "OMG!"

I'm not sure how we would know, and the polls suggest it's not the case, but I wonder how many men are "joining" the MAGA movement, the more MAGA's depravity comes to light. I'm sure it's happening.

No. They hope Homan will be even worse. What they learned in Minneapolis is that they're surviving it (they're getting away with it). Now for the shift.

I've been going hoarse telling everyone Trump's agenda (which is the oligarchy's/Project 2025 agenda) is to crash the economy so oligarchs can make a killing buying up distressed properties. It's happening already:
