I think I speak for many in stating that our biggest concern is that there have been no adults in the room since day 1 of this administration, and for him to start a war with the incompetent Cabinet he has, with no council from Congress, is the ultimate in Trump's narcissistic psyche out of control.

And it all started with Robert's Supreme Court giving Citizens United actual citizenship to buy politicians. Like the entire GOP.

The fact that many have to resort to this to spread news is so scary and insane.
Certain social media platforms are monitoring, even deleting, posts that criticize ICE and other government agencies.

Aliya Rahman, woman who was dragged out of car by ICE in Minneapolis: "I've spent the last month learning the names of the tendons in my shoulder, because both of my shoulders are torn -- cartilage and tendons. But what I haven't learned is the names of the people who did this to me."

They each have an Olympic Gold Medal to keep for the rest of their lives!! Going to the Trump White House will tarnish those forever.

Besides, which of them is going to give up his own gold medal when Trump asks for one.....?

hrmmmm, and here I thought it was merely capitalistic greed, fostered and nourished by the GOP, over these past 40 years.

No words. In my lifetime I never thought there could be cruelty in the U.S. at the level of the Nazi's and American slave overseers/owners. How wrong I was. Just stunned at the level of cruelty and breadth of support throughout the U.S. for it.

Yet another candidate for impeachment if we reclaim the House and Senate.

That list is long and the breadth of corruption tied to Trump is deep.

Reading people. Body language. Knowing how to connect with people totally unlike you and with different backgrounds and beliefs. Defusing tense situations. Gaining trust. High endurance, pain tolerance, and work ethic. Reaction time. Prioritizing order of execution. Anticipating people’s needs. Tons

We have lost the ability to predict how low he can go....this, again, demonstrates what a sick, sick person he is.

Amazing how out of touch tech elitists can be.

Similar corporate mindset as the early 20th century. Corporate HR departments weren't developed to help workers - they were developed to keep the workers functioning as capital assets., i.e. not humans but as capital equipment.

No, and following the analogy, there will probably be a supernova first.......

BTW, has there been a single U.S. citizen that has taken a job that was held by a deported immigrant? Maybe a white guy who has been waiting when he could finally get the job of his dreams harvesting strawberries in the heat, cleaning gutters, tarring roofs, changing diapers in a day care?? Any??

hrmmmm, another lie from the depths of the White House, this time from the less violent replacement of Bovino?

What will it take for mainstream media to finally place ZERO trust in anyone that is <10 degrees of separation from that administration?

How it happened: Epstein billionaires fund GOP Sen. & House campaigns-->minority # of voters of Red States elect GOP Sen. & House majorities-->GOP Senate confirms Pam Bondi for DoJ-->DoJ illegally redacts & withholds files-->GOP House ignores DoJ contempt & insults of Pam Bondi-->Epsteiners content!

10 years ago, we never heard the term "Projection" used as a way to deflect accusatory blame. Now- the GOP and MAGA use it on an hourly basis.

That and screaming "But what about the stock market under Trump?"

Seems appropriate for anyone of the "Epstein Class".

BTW, does MAGA still hate libs for their elitism yet accepts the entitlement of any GOPer who is in the Epstein Files?? asking for a friend...

Reading this and now thinking: does everyone recall those GOP members who went to Moscow on the 4th of July in 2017(? 2018?) - are their names in the files and Putin had access to the files?

He was definitely murdered. But the number of suspects is well beyond even Hercule Poitot's abilities to sort, although, similar to Orient Express, all names in the Epstein Files is probably closer to the truth. If it wasn't ordered by one billionaire, it would have been ordered by another....

Not us, dammit. We have the double-barrelled approach to increasing energy costs:
1) get rid of sustainable energy generation
2) build AI-serving grids to suck the power off the grid so all have to pay more.

Making America Great Again, are we?

An "Ethics Waiver"?

Doesn't Trump keep a stack of those in a drawer in the Oval office, and at Mar-A-Lago, to hand out to sycophants after they perform their ministrations for his royal highness? If you ARE a sycophant to Trump, you sure as hell have no ethics.

It is one thing the rest of the world will be happy to contribute $ to - sealing themselves off from the US.
