"Trump is going to invade American cities and bulldoze the White House" would have been seen as an alarmist liberal fever dream thing to say a year ago

This is not a "conflict of interest" and it does not "raise troubling ethical questions."
It is embezzlement that a 9 year-old could understand. It is a black and white crime.

Not to be THAT dictionary, but…
It’s ‘per se,’ not ‘per say.’
It’s ‘dog-eat-dog world,’ not ‘doggy-dog world.’
It’s ‘hunger pangs,’ not ‘hunger pains.’
It’s ‘one and the same,’ not ‘one in the same.’
It's 'buck naked,' not 'butt naked.'

BASH: Are you okay w/ the military using American cities as 'training grounds'?
JOHNSON: I don't know what's being implied by that
B: It suggests troops are going to be in cities & use them military training
J: That's been very beneficial for the Guard
B: So it's ok?
J: It's a win-win scenario

I am horrified both by the sheer amount of electricity that it took to generate this sea of bullshit, and by the pollution of the Internet with unwanted/unneeded 'content'. It is getting harder and harder to sift through the sewage to find worthwhile stuff, and these types of assholes are why.
found out what former Wondery COO Jeanine Wright is up to: flooding the internet with unlistenable AI podcasts
Her company has put out around 156,000 AI podcast episodes in two years and has averaged about 64 listens per podcast total in that time (less than one download a week)

Look at this hot nonsense and then look at Trump's abysmal polling numbers - he's hot garbage in all categories - and remind me again why politicians and corporate leaders are allowing this to happen. The arrow pointing to the right side of history is brighter than the sun.
NEWS: Trump says the Smithsonian is “WOKE” and “OUT OF CONTROL” because they talk about “how bad slavery was,” and says he has instructed his attorneys to stop this at museums in D.C.

A statue of a Confederate general that demonstrators toppled and burned in D.C. in 2020 will be reinstalled, the National Park Service announces.
