Trump shares his plan for the $10 billion he expects to receive from his IRS lawsuit The more the president tries to defend his desire for a taxpayer-financed payout, the worse his position appears.

I'm going to introduce legislation blocking Trump from stealing taxpayer dollars with this absurd lawsuit. Stay tuned.

And to prosecute all the lawlessness of the current administration, right?

Digital panopticon.

Who does he think writes Consumer Reports reviews, if not people who became subject matter experts? And are moms now expected to run randomized scientific trials to see if each medication they might use is safe? Test car seats in our basement crash labs?

Does he not understand it, or thinks his followers don’t understand it and therefore doesn’t care?

And none of them were professional interior designers.

Trump’s Family Is Helping Foreign Governments Buy CNN. No One Can Stop Them. Foreign wealth and political power are converging in the CNN takeover bid, exposing how weak America’s protections are against media capture.

“Imagine if Hunter Biden were helping assemble billions in Saudi and Qatari financing so a progressive media owner could take over Fox News while quietly assuring the White House that he planned to replace hosts and reshape the network’s direction."

I liked the thing where if an airline canceled your flight, you were automatically refunded. That’s a common-sense thing that made my experience better, but Trump killed that.

Oh, they are trying to kill the CA standards too so they can’t be more stringent than federal standards. “States’ Rights! Except when we disagree.”
