It's pretty much acknowledged that Good and Pretti were wrongly killed, yet nobody has been arrested or disciplined in any way.

It's only a conflict if there is some intent to enforce the laws against crypto firms and transactions. I think it's possible that there will be no enforcement, so no conflict.

Do they not realize that they sound EXACTLY like prior administrations at the initiation of ill-conceived nation-building efforts just like this one?

He's angry. He's acting out. He's using his power to lash out. He's pretty much like any other white, male MAGA.

So, Noem got fired in part over the ad campaign grift htat enriched her friends.

And now the ads are no longer usable.

$200 million. Up in smoke.

How many right wingers can Trump alienate? He's no doubt gone through is final election, so pleasing the masses isn't about elections. It's more about getting the MAGA trolls to "go after" his rivals.

He is choosing silence as the strongest form of protest he can make in this Administration. He couldn't possibly disagree with them.

America First vs MAGA is going to be the Shia vs Sunni of the American conservative movement

Citizens United.

"... I forged over the 13 months ..."

That's some light-duty forging.

A higher calling -- making sure the elections go the way republicans want them to.

If you're at the airport and Kristi Noem is doing the ominous little message from the TSA screens, you no longer have to do anything she says. Leave your laptop in the case, whatever.

Now that he's broken the ICE, who is next? Bondi? Patel?

MWM will be fun to watch in hearings. Big dummy that he is.

Tommy T is back at the top until someone dumber comes along.

Not to suggest that Noem isn't also a useful idiot.

I fully realize that this is not a pertinent question, but it serves as an excellent reminder of where we are, and how we got here. It highlights the toxic cult that Trump has created, and makes you question whether this person will exercise any independent judgment in office. (He won't.)

Among other qualifications, Mullin remembers the smell and taste of war, even though he was never actually involved in it.

She will be made Ambassador to some warm, safe nation. So, yeah, he will but it won't be called firing.

But all it takes is one Republican campaign ad (falsely) representing a (fictional) trans woman playing high school volleyball, and those farmers will stay "R" voters.

It's like he sets himself up to look like an idiot.

Imagine trying to rule Iran when you got the job because US President Trump approved of you.

Have they thought any of this through?

For much of history, people convicted of rape and murder are denied MANY human rights.

I suspect Miller reserves the right to decide in advance if someone is a rapist or murderer, or will become one in the future.

"very hostile to everyone"
Hmm.
