This is an example of why I dropped my NYT subscription.

I would like Trump's letter to Brazil to live on as one of the important primary source documents of the Trump era, linking trade restrictions in historical memory to impunity for criminal behavior, right-wing nationalist authoritarian politics, coups, domestic illegality, and simple illiteracy.

This morning, like every morning, US President will wake up: paint his face orange, clip on his comical wig, put on a big floppy tie & oversized suit & weird platform shoes, and will go out in the world to steal as much money has he can while undermining US national security & economy & democracy.

Found these old grievances online. Sound familiar?

He cuts off our trade with all parts of the world:
He imposes taxes on us without our consent:
He deprives us in many cases, of the benefits of trial by jury:
He transports us beyond seas to be tried for pretended offenses…

This should be a MUST READ for every American about how our Oligarchy is rapidly destroying America from within. The gutting of Education, Social Security, FEMA, etc. are designed to break the government. The thought police are in control now. #resist

Musk’s status as a “special government employee” limits him to 130 days in the executive branch. However, despite working daily—documented by his own X posts—they claim he only works one day a week, effectively stretching his limit to 130 weeks. This needs to be brought to Congress—please share.

Thank you for sharing this.

Other than Lawrence O’Donnell, I stopped watching, or listening in my car, during the run up to the last election. He was outraged last night regarding the network’s actions. Once he is gone there will be no reason to go there . Same with CNN.

Developmentally disabled Missourians suffer abuse, death in state's dysfunctional system • Missouri Independent From 2017 through 2023, roughly 2,680 Missourians with developmental disabilities died under the care of the state.

I don’t even know what to do with this information…

In total, from 2017 through 2023, 2,682 people with developmental disabilities died under the care of the state of Missouri — on average, one person every day. missouriindependent.com/2025/02/24/d...

Folks: I am NOT affiliated with the group that is using my name to support an economic boycott. Please spread this post, if you would.

Up to 169 IES contracts have been canceled, threatening critical education research. This is a major setback for educators & children with disabilities who rely on evidence-based practices. Urge Congress to protect IES research! #4SpecialEducation

Actually prefer him to Tony Romo and certainly to Joe Buck.

By the way, Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs are held to the same rules as every NFL team and do not receive special treatment from refs. Allegations otherwise remind me of Trump. Move the on from Mahomes references. Otherwise, great show!

I don’t want to discourage anyone, but I will give you a piece of advice: I don’t attend protests unless I know the organizers.

Do your homework. Ask questions. Listen to your gut.

Agreed. What action is being proposed and considered? Court challenges or direct appeal to the Supreme Court? Need specific action soon.

What action is being initiated to stop this and right the wrong? Court challenges, direct appeal to the Supreme Court? Anything of substance? All I have heard so far is indignant outrage. Need some action soon.

Agreed. So what is next? Is congressional action being initiated tomorrow?

Stupid.

This School Choice Week, CEC is waving the red flag on vouchers that redirect public funds to private schools that do not need to comply with federal disability laws. Funneling public funds from public education harms children & youth with disabilities.

Julian Edelman heard the same baloney about his Patriots teams that the Chiefs are hearing now. On the Rich Eisen Show, he said he's sick and tired of it.

"If you want to beat them, go beat them. Don't talk about it. Be about it."

Eagles were uninvited in 2018 because several players would not attend. Chiefs got a bye in 2020 because of the Covid epidemic but attended in 2023 and 2024. It will be interesting to watch what happens with either team this year. Contrary to other commentators I believe a few Chiefs would pass.

The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.

The goal is to overwhelm us so we give up. Don't do that!

If you need a how-to…

After that 15 yard sack on 4th down, Buck and Aikman were silent for a solid 5 seconds. They knew they were gonna have to say something complimentary to the Chiefs defense and they needed time to gather themselves to do it.
