Three key points:
1) The admin has been planning mass firings to begin in October since February
2) The work necessary to carry out mass firings is illegal during a shutdown, violating the Antideficiency Act, which carries a criminal penalty
3) This harms America, ridding us of talent and expertise

The most frustrating thing about this war is that the US could step in forcefully now with harsh sanctions against Russia and a large military package for Ukraine with ranged weapons as the centrepiece, and the war would end soon with a Russian defeat.

Wouldn’t the best way to honor Charlie Kirk’s belief in free speech be to reinstate Jimmy Kimmel?

Megyn Kelly: “We haven't felt like ourselves since Obama. He was such a slick snake…He was so divisive in his messaging...He’s the one who started to inject race when no one had been doing it…They say ‘Trump is divisive’. He’s the antidote, the answer to the divisiveness of Obama.”

I have written and deleted a lot of posts but I keep thinking about how the brutal assassination of Minnesota State senator Melissa Hortman, her husband Mark, and their beloved dog Gilbert in June did not prompt this same level of calls for empathy, sympathy, and flags at half-mast.

This has gone way too far: why can’t we do something about it? Putin has thrown down the gauntlet, and we stand there, stupefied, as Ukrainians take the hit for us, time and again.

This is how Russian drone crashing into your apartment looks like. + we live in truly bizarre times. this person stands there calmly in their Kyiv apartment that was just attacked by a Russian Shahed drone, and just calmly says why you should indeed hide in bathroom or hallway during the attack ,

It’s all about control over something that should be above politics.

Really frustrating seeing journalists continue using “peace deal.” This is such an insult to Ukrainians. What “peace deal” implies is rewarding a terrorist state committing genocide and an illegal invasion by an aggressor.

Isn’t this a country where private property is sacred? They leave devastation everywhere.

I hope Alaskans protest. This is a visit by someone who still has pretensions to their land. Letting Putin in boosts his ratings back home, where Russians think Alaska is Russian.
