Four different men. Four very different crimes. But their common trait is that each of them had previously received a pardon, commutation or clemency from President Trump.

Working with imperfect partners does not mean the United States should cover up and lie about their misdeeds, as Trump did with Mohammed bin Salman, Saudi Arabia’s ruler

It was a fawning, cringe-worthy performance that belied America’s more powerful status. It was absolution rather than realpolitik

Trump’s Spending Abuses Are Out of Control

The Supreme Court has unwisely endorsed Trump’s approach.

The result is an expansion of presidential power and a weakening of the legislature that should alarm anybody who shares the American founders’ suspicion of centralized power.

Good advice

"Our ideas, our perceptions, can also be the very causes of our pain and suffering. So, we should examine whether we have any ideas, or perceptions, or prejudices, or stereotypes, that need to be let go. The more one can let go, the happier one becomes.”

he current frenzy of gerrymandering, which could get worse if the Supreme Court guts the Voting Rights Act before the midterms, complicates that assumption. And there’s a case to be made that Democrats’ prospects in the Senate are better than commonly predicted.

The approach Pope Leo takes puts virtue outside and above politics. His declarations are the living embodiment of Martin Luther King Jr.’s admonition that the church “is not to be the master or the servant of the state, but the conscience of the state.”

Very interesting conversation with Bernie Sanders on AI's impact on the workforce and more revolutionary solutions to protect workers. worth a listen

I've been saying for awhile that if labor is being decimated by capital--then we have to get more capital in the hands of workers.

Trump is different. He's gone much further than previous presidents, which explains why the Government Accountability Office has found he violated the law 6 times in a few months.

Noem spent over $200 million in taxpayer dollars to film videos over 2xs last year’s budget.
The money was funneled using a “no bid” contract to an unknown LLC created days earlier and is tied to the husband of her deputy at DHS.

Yeah it really backfired. We’re reeling. That’s why we were up all night trashing some of our closest former allies on social media, ordering investigations by DOJ of our enemies, delaying a flight to Palm Beach to rant and rave in the WH, while generally melting down. Libs in disarray.
