So there was a reason Trump skipped out on handshakes at West Point graduation to go golfing. Honor Code vs Trump being a liar, cheat and a convicted felon.

Direct violation of the First Amendment!!!!
Secretary of State Marco Rubio said he will continue to revoke visas for “people that are supportive of movements that run counter to the foreign policy of the United States.”

This is new. And it doesn’t feel like freedom

THIS!!!! 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻
In a functioning democracy with strong journalism, major media would say clearly and loudly that the U.S. is under assault by fascists whose views don't represent most Americans but who have nonetheless seized power. Instead, the media cover events piecemeal, failing to sound the proper alarm.

Can a country sue another country for violating a treaty? If so Ukraine could sue USA for violating Budapest Memorandum and Canada and Mexico could sue for US imposing tariffs thus violating USMCA Treaty THAT TRUMP “NEGOTIATED.”

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell.

This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

Trump’s plan??!! Trump’s plan is the same as it was his first term: extort Zelenskyy. His first term it was US military aid for fake dirt on Biden . This time: military aid for Ukraine’s minerals. Zelenskyy is the patriot, TFG the traitor.

Lol. If this were true he’d be bragging about all the handshakes he does instead of trying to hide it with makeup.
Truth behind Trump's mysteriously bruised hand
President Donald Trump has been photographed repeatedly with what appears to be makeup on his right hand, sometimes appearing to mask bruising. The White House finally has an explanation.

Even if you’re not a Florida voter, this election affects you. A loss for MAGA Republicans in FL-01 means:

• A weaker F47 agenda
• Stronger protections for democracy, voting rights, & civil liberties

Rep Raskin has been great. Rep Ocasio-Cortez has been great. And Rep Frost and Rep Crockett. Senator Murphy. Maybe no one knew exactly what to do. But such people laid down a clear marker. Let’s respect these and other elected federal representatives who stood out these first few weeks.

Last night @60minutes.bsky.social opened an otherwise superb segment on Germany’s approach to online hate speech by saying “in the U.S., most of what’s said on online [social media] platforms is protected by the First Amendment.”
No.The First Amend protects us against GOVT infringements on speech.

"Only about 44,000 of these were actually linked to payments. We're talking about database quirks here, not grand theft."
Anyone remember COBOL?

The database for the Social Security administration was written in COBOL, way back in 1973-79.

Here’s a coding tidbit for you:

When a database doesn’t have a date value, each program has their very own epoch date.

Guess what COBOL uses… 1875.
