It could be he’s getting a whiff of their thoughts.

He has ideas, for sure. But Rachel means, — unlike toddlers who eye the coffee cup, and say “hot” because they have learned have learned consequences; an early step towards adulthood. He lacks or has lost this measure of understanding.

Look! Over there! We’re making news. No reason to waste time and attention on those boring old Epstein files.

The strategy: preventing regime change, in America. Secondary strategy: preventing regime change in Israel.

The Gilded Age with its grandiose spending returns, though with, synthetics, and technology. Except in the White House, which is sticking with old school golden gilding. And old school cronyism.

With respect, war is stupid but frequently patriotic, less frequently necessary. Positing patriotic necessity makes the question of cost unpatriotic and unnecessary. (Unspoken) Make the children pay! Its for their future.

Anything. Any. Thing. Such as making war on Cuba next. It’s fine to commit death by bombs, to destroy the American economy on war spending. Just don’t look at the Epstein files.
So, in opposition, – If talking gas prices will get the bill passed, excellent!!! Get’er done

They are not failing if they paste on a justification that makes it possible to pass the bill. Politics not pretty.

The first copies of the Lymond Chronicles that I acquired half a century ago, were because someone like you donated. They cost 5¢ or 10¢ each. Several were the original American edition.

Similar thoughts, like snow on a TV screen back in the days of antennas, has flickered across a million other minds.

No. Better not to burden another living soul with performing such immorality. It would not reduce nor remove the wrongs he has done. However, stripping him of all his wealth & political clout; leaving him to try to live as a senior citizen on just social security… That would be amusing. Or jail.

Can’t we just have a reality program called “ Antitrust Enforcers”? Maybe with local color -of LA, of DC, …

Thank you for more thoroughly characterizing what we need.

Article 25 nap?

If only. Then we would be able to cure him with a nap.

Except for
Rule: might makes right.
Rule: money is mighty.
Rule: apologies are for losers

That’s so the last week. This administration does not look back and it does not apologize.

If only we could redirect the attention of those enjoy destruction to demolition derby’s, and have that be enough.

Apparently, we haven’t made them quite explicitly stupid enough.

Do you think you can get the gods of weather in a contractual agreement about that?

Been there, done that. Nurses and some other hospital staff work 12s regularly. Respect to them for also doing it outside in winter.

Also give them hot soup or apples and tangerines. They deserve to be nourished as well as thanked.

Thank you for your effort. Do what you can to stop this irresponsible war monger.

This might be a dumb waste of money, even so, it might be the most benign thing this administration has done. Or be tied with discontinuing the penny.

Yes. A huge bump, though mostly among non-Texans, who therefore did not get to weigh in. Still, I found myself wondering during and after the interview, if Colbert had willfully put a thumb on the scale.

Let us hope Talrico is able to Rise Above and represent all the people.

He may have welcomed the externals of a martyr’s death; he probably didn’t welcome the pain that accompanied it. It is an extension of the grotesqueness of religion that anyone would hold up such a death to be celebrated.

He cares. He cares to have it last until one second after the last Epstein related statute of limitation runs out. Which means this war is not his fault, but ours, — for holding hearings.

Exposing my ignorance here. Does Iran have a purpose beyond that of chastising neighbors for allowing American military presence in their countries?

Should we give up on the Epstein files? Remove the need for him to try to make us pay attention to something else?
