This, by the way, is the main reason I'm running for Congress.

We need this kind of reform to renew the Constitution and fix the weak spots Trump revealed. But people aren't thinking very clearly about it, so they're proposing all sort of half-measures. Not enough Madisons.

I might be part of the 1%.

GWB has been (and apparently still is) committed to an imo venerable tradition of past presidents not criticizing current presidents.

I give him no credit for β€œ throwing shadeβ€œ either. But I’m fine with him not doing so.

In fairness to our trade representative, there’s no evidence (that I could find, anyway) that he’s taken a single economics class.

Aleksei Navalny was most likely poisoned by a toxin found in a South American frog, five European countries said Saturday, making the most concrete Western accusation yet that Russia’s leading opposition figure was murdered by his government in a prison two years ago. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/14/w...

I don’t believe this because Bannon said it. I believe it because it’s consistent with everything they’ve done so far.

The entire press corps should walk out, not come back, & we simply shouldn’t tolerate this.

Months of β€œJoe Biden won’t do a press conference.” A nonstop national story. Same with Harris in Aug/Sep 2024 & interviews. Trump does this stuff & everyone shrugs. It’s appalling.

Ron, the competition for biggest POS is so intense that I can’t help but think you are jumping to conclusions here.

This is an important nuance.

There is no evidence that the decedent did something β€œunwiseβ€œ here.

Anticipatory obedience, by not carrying one’s concealed firearm out of concern of possibly running into federal thugs, isn’t the answer.

No, but it will get their dishonesty on the record.

And oh what a tangled web we weave when first we practice to deceive.

Journalists, please remember that repeating obviously false statements is not balance or fairness. It is actively participating in deception.

Perhaps. But if they hadn’t been following the breadcrumbs to reach such an obvious conclusion thus far…

Trump, Noem, and this entire criminal administration must be held accountable by Congress for their myriad crimes against the public. It is the solemn constitutional and moral duty of all members of Congress to exercise their legal authority to remove them from executive office.

I wrote a book called "Peace, They Say." Our envoy to Russia says, "Russia remains fully committed to achieving peace in Ukraine." What Putin is committed to is the destruction and subjugation of Ukraine. Is that peace? If our envoy is not a stooge, he is dangerously naive.
