Watching the Travis Hunter slithering and acrobatic moves and Trevor Lawrence’s guts and talent, the words that kept coming into my head were β€œplaying smart but with abandon.”

Let’s try to find out where all this new equipment and transportation vehicles and weapons are in 2-3 years. Located, or missing, stolen, sold - there’s going to be a lot of β€œwe’re not sure where that is, we’ll get back to you.”

They just keep giving us more reasons to not watch CBS news shows.

Or…he hasn’t been offered enough in exchange for a pardon.
Unless some big donors were paying in advance for Ghislaine’s silence.

Has there ever been a megachurch leader β€” a huge TV celebrity type church leader β€” who didn’t turn into a disgrace?

I think that he will say anything to increase his chances of winning.

They’re so amped up, it’s really possible they did imagine all of this, and believed it.

Like, look at all this gear we’ve got, and all the armor we’re wearing. We MUST always be under attack! We MUST always be in mortal danger! Why else would we have it?

Of course, that’s why we have the cameras.

It could be this simple: All Miller has to do is reassure Trump that great progress is being made towards Trump’s goals and everyone is working night and day to make sure that Trump keeps his campaign promises about deporting illegals. That’s why, Mr. President, it’s urgent that you sign the EOs.

He often assumes the questions from press or tv hosts are tricks - trying to put him in a negative light or to take blame for something. So he opts for what he thinks are plausible deniability answers even if he’s lying. Except for Doocy questions - the softball leading questions.

Those β€œsomeones” plus Congressional Republicans secretly believe that he will not last physically and/or mentally for 4 years, so their strategy is to stay on the gravy train, use him to implement their plans and take any blame, not try to remove him - plan to outlast him. Or something like that.

The people in the room did not want to hear your speech.

He is still talking? Just curious: is it a reward or a curse to be assigned to the WH press pool these days?

Did this prosecutor put it in a Memo or formal writing, that in her opinion after a full investigation there is no probable cause?
If not, hope she puts that in her resignation or goodbye to staff letter. Word of mouth leaks from β€œcolleagues” will be batted down by Trump as lies from Trump haters.

Repulsive. He’s making up stuff and mocking people and doing his standup routine, and enough of them are laughing and applauding that it is easily heard on the clip.
10,000 sailors. Participating like they’re a friendly campaign crowd at what Trump, from the stage, called a rally.

Because saying β€œNo” to anything that Trump wants gets you fired.

Can’t we just get this obnoxious reality show cancelled?

NO to Bad Bunny but YES to UFC on the White House lawn?
Nobody is forced to watch the halftime show. Millions listen to Bad Bunny in Spanish even if they don’t understand Spanish.

If you want the Village People, Kid Rock and Lee Greenwood at halftime, then make your own show on Spotify.

The ones standing behind him when he makes a speech are usually chosen because the advance team already knows they will applaud, etc.

Well, Ms Noem, since you militarized all of them, get them some MREs and large empty water bottles. Or ask the Secretary of War how to function in a war zone.

Please don’t stress about your looks.
Most likely when you are 50 and older you will look at photos of yourself from your 30s and think-Wow, why didn’t I know how good I looked in my 30s - if I had known back then, I would not have felt not attractive enough to do ______ (fill in the blank).

Not sure if it is just me doing something wrong, but the "gift" link function from WaPo makes you create an account to read it. I used to have a subscription and do not recall the gift benefit making the recipient create an account.

Not your fault of course. Just posting what happened to me.

Well, even if you know the name of the COS (Susie Wiles), nobody knows what she does all day.

WTF is she talking about?

The security at the Super Bowl is already at the highest alert level.

Why does ICE have to be β€œall over” anything?

Does she think that 1000s of people here illegally are going to have their own party at the stadium because Bad Bunny is performing?

It angers and disgusts me that Trump - singularly - is going to take and receive all the credit for this β€œplan” taking place - no matter how many people and organizations from how many countries have said and done everything they can to cause an β€œend” to this war.

Either way, he is a dangerously evil man being allowed to operate as if he has presidential powers and immunity.

It's what he says in private, to Netanyahu, that matters the most.

Not these screaming, ranting, threatening public posts.
