It’s free speech to decide who you want and don’t want in your pub. Whoever said this is just a Karen (or a MAGA Scared Boy)

So if there are all these people who are committing fraud, why aren’t we going to prosecute them? Seems to me that’s the appropriate thing to do … unless, “waste, fraud, and abuse” is just a hollow talking point.

But it also says that those around him in the White House have used the term and knew exactly what they were saying, and just how antisemitic it is.

I believe this is as legit as much as I believe Trump’s doctor that says he is 215 lbs and in great physical condition

That he had “respect” for DJT before this is the funny part of the statement.

Maybe Ackman should have thought through this before backing POTUS. Why would he think this would be any different? Trump told us this is what he would do? Blinded by tax rates?

But … where exactly are egg prices “already down” $1? Not at my local ShopRite.

The problem is, I think, that deal-making is less likely if the uncertainty continues, and there’s no reason to believe that we will have policy clarity anytime soon.

Centers for Disease Control and Prevention

The coolest thing I’ve seen today is that a bunch of volunteer public health professionals and developers have restored the CDC website from before January 20th 2025.

This differs from an archive in that they want to rebuild the links between pages and replicate the full website.

A Jan. 6 defendant tells NPR why she turned down Trump's pardon Pamela Hemphill, who pleaded guilty to a single misdemeanor charge and spent 60 days behind bars for her role in the Capitol riots, says she no longer believes the lies President Trump promoted.

Neither of which are factual statements … and I’m sure the “sates handling their own disaster relief” statement doesn’t apply to states that voted for him. Truly pathetic.

#JamieDimon playing both sides - DJT will read that as agreement on policy but allows Dimon to say the policy was implemented incorrectly when/if it blows up.

That’s a convenient argument that Jamie Dimon makes - DJT can read that as agreement on policy from the head of JPM but allows Dimon to come back at a later date and say DJT’s policies were bad for the country. Seems like Everyone’s playing both sides these days.

Sure, but that doesn’t make it true, and the right does the same thing but one could argue they take it to a different level (re: Jan 6). This analysis will hopefully inform and educate the decision makers.

Why would a former governor ask questions before commenting when you can shoot first and move on when proven wrong

Maybe, but probably not. More likely is a few tough years. I would expect that team DJT find out how hard it is to govern vs complaining from the side. The kiddos need to have some experience (like we all did). Maybe we have flipped from getting more conservative as we get old to more progressive?
