EX AMBASSADOR TO RUSSIA MCFAUL: β€œPutin doesn't look at all of this stuff as a sign of strength. He looks at it as a sign of weakness. He had to do absolutely nothing to get this meeting. Putin has gained everything and given nothing in return.”

I Know Exactly What They Are Doing Rural foresight

I hear people all around me saying, β€œThey are going to crash the economy. Surely they don’t mean to crash the economy.”

I beg to differ. This is curated failure. open.substack.com/pub/jesspipe...

Buttigieg suggests he’d 'assess' a presidential run as he visits Iowa He vaulted onto the national stage in 2020 out of South Bend, Indiana. This time, his calculus looks different.

Pete Buttigieg suggested he would β€œassess” a 2028 presidential run.

While visiting Iowa, he said in a live interview that he'd consider β€œwhat I bring to the table.”

The majority seems to be affording the president a strong presumption of regulatory-assuming good faith and respect for constitutional boundaries. But everything this administration has done since Jan. 20 rebuts that presumption (a reality that may be dawning on Barrett, but apparently not Roberts or Brett Kavanaugh). As Boasberg has shown, and Sotomayor noted, the president invoked the Alien Enemies Act in secret so it could hustle
migrants overseas before courts could intervene. Why should he now receive this extraordinary, undeserved assistance to continue operating what is so obviously an unlawful program, with a pinky promise that he'll afford due process this time to those ensnared on the thinnest of pretenses? Roberts' decision to bail Trump out is a deeply ominous sign that the chief justice wants to rein in lower courts standing in the way of the MAGA agenda. If he does, it won't just be Venezuelan migrants who pay the price. J

I think the Supreme Court got the law badly wrong tonight. But beyond that, it’s just incredibly ominous that Roberts would throw Boasberg under the bus and hand Trump this big win when his administration has conducted this case in EXTREME bad faith from the start. slate.com/news-and-pol...

Bernie is right. No more playing dead. No more running to the center.

Sincerely,

I got lazy using Amazon. No more. Buying directly from businesses, using Costco on-line, local small businesses and my wonderful public library for books. No more Kindle. It feels good and I will continue.

This micro aggression IS psychological warfare and force people to resign.

Trump and Musk need to explain to the American public how much time and money they have wasted on EO/DOGE non-core work related items just indulged the whims of self indulged, wannabe dictator!
