In North Carolina, the Border Patrol’s Presence Divides a Swing State

A federal judge didn’t β€œsteal” the Commander-in-Chief’s powersβ€”she ruled that DoD exceeded the limits Congress set. That is the rule of law working as designed. What threatens the Republic isn’t judicial review, but officials who insist they’re above it.

Just keep in mind that Shitler eliminated the group of people who protected our digital security.

Keep in mind that this serial liar also promised a hundred times during the campaign that he would be able to end the war β€œin 24 hours” with β€œone phone call” to Putin because he has β€œa great relationship” with him, β€œknows just what to say to him,” & β€œit won’t even be that hard.”

The simple answer to that is heroin addiction. The more relevant question is: Why did Shitler appoint him, and why did voters , who know what Shitler was, vote for him anyway?

I follow all writers here, and, like you, don't have an agent.

Trump's prioritization of speed in policy and of personal devotion in officials make it all inherently brittle, and compound the regime durability problems presented by his age.

It's hardly laudable, but: much of the acquiescence we see isn't adoption of his goals, it's waiting him out.

It’s not the β€œif”, we know he’s all over the files.
It’s the β€œwhat” was the extent of his depravity.

NO! Not just once. The press corps should turn the tables on him every time he evades a question by attacking the questioner or responding with irrelevant verbiage.

It will be a legacy of the Republican Party as America surrenders to the Putin administration. πŸ‘‡

Did anyone ask the Supreme Court how Trump could benefit from crypto and a plane gifted from Qatar and not be in violation of the emoluments clause of our Constitution?

Shitler is Putin's prison bitch. Once again, he dropped his pants, bent over, and spread his cheeks for Vlad The Impaler. Maybe he'll get the Piece Prize if Putin gets off on this in a really big way.

I played it in high school too, and still love it. The Eighth is supposed to be his greatest, but not for me.

Shitler's definition of "great legal scholars" includes many who were jailed after the Nuremberg trials.

Scary, though worth watching. If the "bottom" can vote the "top" out of their inordinate influence, our experiment in democracy will continue and thrive. If not, bloody revolution & reign of terror.

Everyone should spend a little less than 2 minutes to watch this. I wish this was available when Kimmel was fired.
