Exploiting people, getting them to work for free.... Sounds like Trump, right? Hoping a lawyer reads this and offers to do a class action suit.

The vast majority of US adults are stressed about grocery costs, an AP-NORC poll finds The vast majority of U.S. adults are at least somewhat stressed about the cost of groceries, a new poll finds, as prices continue to rise and concerns about the impact of President Donald Trump’s tari...

Hey Donald! Remember talking about "groceries" so much in April and how, before the election you said you'd make prices go down? What happened? ground.news/article/the-...

From now on, whenever I see "Thank you for your attention to this matter." I'm going to interpret it as "Oopsie. Now I have to go change my diaper."

Thank you Kai. Just like you didn't have to be a rocket scientist to say that the Challenger Explosion was a tragedy.

However, if the reporting I've seen is true, in her effort to have 1,000 agents pouring through all the content of the records, videos, photos, etc.... it is possible that stuff was on shared drives and perhaps.... some patriot made copies. Daniel Ellsberg, Presente!

Department of Homeland Security Memo Here’s the text of a memo obtained by The New Republic, written by Philip Hegseth, senior adviser to Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem and DHS liason to the Department of Defense.

This is terrifying. Here's a link to the memo used as part of the meeting. newrepublic.com/article/1986...

This is absolutely terrifying, as a veteran, as a citizen, as a former public official... as someone who loves this country. Here's a link to the actual memo. newrepublic.com/article/1986...

But, additionally, sadly, some are asking how to appease him, giving in to him, flattering him, and yes, in many cases, fooling him. And most sadly, we the people will suffer for it all and people all over the planet will suffer too. What a terrible thing.

Just locker room talk, right? It wasn't then (Access Hollywood) and it isn't now.

That is money directly coming out of my pocket as a small business owner. Many of my suppliers have raised their prices, not as much as the tariffs. They want to help cushion the blow. I'm also trying not to raise prices too much for my customers. My suppliers and I are losing money now.

When I saw the story about Alan Dershowitz suing farmer's market vendor for refusing to serve him, I responded "Being an asshole isn't a protected class." My good friend Wendy does a much better job of eloquently explaining why it is OK to refuse service to someone based on their political beliefs.

Violations of the Hatch Act? Seriously? Violations of the Hatch Act are NOT criminal and the penalties are slaps on the wrist to being removed from federal service. Umm........ Jack Smith is now a private citizen. This is bizarre.
