The audacity!

One had a CIA desk job in the 50s and 60s, and the other was a lumber broker

One was a CIA desk job guy in the 50s and 60s - still very curious about that, but we’ll never know - and the other was a lumber grader and entrepreneur.

Balint to Noem: "You're the secretary of DHS -- for now. And you think you're immune from accountability. But I promise you this: one day he is not gonna be president anymore. And when that day comes, we will still be here. And in hearings like this, we are going to continue to prove your guilt."

That’s terrible 😣

Same - it’s a perversion of true friendship. It’s disingenuous at best.

Having been a spouse to an employee posted at several US consulates and embassies, I can say with certainty, ugh, they are so bad at this. 🤦🏻‍♀️

I was raised Mormon and there were definitely some who subscribed to this kind of theology, but it wasn’t widespread. Thanks for the explainer.

That’s quite a review! Can’t wait!

There’s still lots of time for him to go off the rails though

Wow, did not know this. I'm just learning this now.

I'm not concerned about those who question God or even doubt God. That’s just a natural part of faith.

My concern are those who claim to know the mind of God better than anyone and act as though they have the right to impose their beliefs on everyone else.

What a weird and wonderful list!

we reached the “no WMDs” phase in two days.

Jonathan Karl @jonkarl X.com Pres Trump told me tonight the US had identified possible candidates to take over Iran, but they were killed in the initial attack. "The attack was so successful it knocked out most of the candidates," Trump told me. "It's not going to be anybody that we were thinking of because they are all dead. Second or third place is dead."

The incompetence of this regime never surprises me, but it does frequently astound me

Truly mind boggling that they were either oblivious or complicit in this level of control over young women.

It is truly hard to understand this kind of appetite for cruelty.

Worst work event ever *shudder*

And it absolutely is, if he thinks he should give one to himself

I don’t know, this seems like you could eat just one bagel, but 10x the cream cheese and honestly, I’m here for it

giving up was an option. I instantly wished I had known and had just fed my baby in the way that was easiest for all of us!

My first had a tongue tie I didn’t know I was supposed to fix (AND NO ONE TOLD ME!) and when he was three months old and we had finally gotten breastfeeding down, a woman I knew told me “I’m so proud of you that you didn’t give up” and that was literally the first moment it occurred to me that…

They’re afraid of us in much the same way you might fear a severely mentally ill person who is behaving erratically and who is much bigger and stronger than you.

God I’ve been there! Money = panic in my childhood home even though we were fairly solidly middle class. it took a long time to untangle that one
