We were somewhere outside of Fairfax, en route to the White House presser, when the drugs began to take hold

Listening to Kara Swisher and Scott Galloway. He mentioned something he attributed to Cory Doctorow;
The Musk/Trump administration is creating two crowds. An "in" crowd to who are protected by the law, but not bound by it and an out crowd bound by the law but not protected by it.

Hegseth is really bringing his best weekend morning Fox News energy to the meeting of the Ukraine Defense Contract Group.
His message to our allies; admit defeat, roll over, accept your fate.
Not quite the "warrior culture" we were promised from our Defense Department, is it?

Trump Says the Corrupt Part Out Loud It’s infrastructure week, but for bribery.

Blagojevich is pardoned and Adams is off the hook, both Democrats mind you.
It would seem, so long as you are corrupt and will kiss his orange *ss, Trump is happy to work with Democrats.
Are they going to let Menendez out, as well?

Pardoning Blagojevich, and apponting him ambassador to Serbia.
The shamelessness is intentional.

Bondi orders review of Trump cases after being sworn in as attorney general Attorney General Pam Bondi called for the creation of β€œweaponization working group” that will examine the work of special counsel Jack Smith, who charged Trump in two criminal cases.

Do we all remember when Republican kicked and screamed about Democrats litigating the past and were not protecting Americans from dangerous criminals, terrorists and drug cartels?
K. Just making sure.

Affirmative action for white men Since taking office on January 20, President Donald Trump has targeted so-called "diversity, equity, and inclusion" programs, also known as DEI.

1. Let's be clear

A central premise of the Trump admin is there is pervasive discrimination against hard-working white men, who are being replaced by less-qualified women and minorities

So over the last 2 weeks Trump has implemented an aggressive affirmative action program for white men

To be clear, USAID is a function of the US government that does what could be called "Christian" work, in the "feed the hungry", "take care of the sick" sense of the word.

Happy Birthday, Mary Cross Wentland, my birth parent.
She's been gone for 14 years, but I still don't have the will to turn off the email birthday reminder I get.
Both my birth parents are gone now, my birth father having passed earlier this month.
Kind of lost in the fog.
