I can't think of anything I'd want to do less with my time than attending a protest against taxing billionaires. This is an insane amount of bootlicking energy.

This is a great idea and we should expand it to cover *all* of the justices of the Supreme Court, and then we could see who did unethical stuff like "attended the Grammys" or "bankrolled by a billionaire white supremacist donor who collects Nazi memorabilia" or "married to a January 6th plotter" or

Though the commerce secretary has called his interactions with Epstein as "limited," the two were in business together four years after Epstein's 2008 guilty plea.

We need to be very clear about Gabbard. She has a reported/documented history of being a counterintelligence problems which makes her an insider threat. Because she was a member of Congress, her clearance wasn't pulled, a full CI investigation not done. Institutional failure at every level.

Of course it’s retaliatory, just like Kilmar Ábrego Garcia. If the Trump people-snatching squads make the admin look bad, the victims will be punished.
Just heard back from DHS on why they abruptly expedited Ramos' asylum hearing:
“These are regular removal proceedings. This is standard procedure and there is nothing retaliatory about enforcing the nation’s immigration laws. He will receive full due process."
(This is not standard procedure.)

Weird to even think that MAGA Elite root for the US, when all they do is trash on how much the US and its people suck.
Vice President JD Vance gets roundly booed at the opening ceremony of the Milano-Cortina 2026 Olympics. "Those are a lot of boos for him, whistling jeering," says the presenter. US athletes receive a warm welcome from fans, though.
