Season 2 of Trump plays President is tired, repetitive and BORING
If it wasn't a reality show I'd turn off

Wish we had something like this in Australia.

If you worked for 18F and got fired, Group together to start a consulting company.
It’s just a matter of time before DOGE needs you to fix the mess they inevitably create.
They will have to hire your company as a contractor to fix it. But on your terms.
I’m happy to invest and/or help

To be fair to Trump, Putin didn't "invade" Ukraine he conducted a "special military operation"
In other news, our local theatre is putting on a production of 1984 later this year

Scott Morrison’s unilateral decision to cancel Australia’s French submarine contract to pursue AUKUS will surely go down as one of the worst political decisions in Australia’s history #auspol

Trump was never going to help Zelenskyy or Ukraine. Ever. He irrationally hates the man and his country.
Luring Zelenskyy to the White House with hope when his real purpose was humiliation is utter evil. Pure evil.

Putting FAA technology in the hands of Starlink, a company owned by a guy that's willing to shut the service down if his man feelings get hurt or he disagrees with something, sounds like a really good idea... sigh.

If I was a qualified FAA person I’d go back but I’d only go back with a $100k sign on bonus and an air tight employment contract that protects me from an unreasonable work environment. Insurance against an incompetent, mean, flip flopping employer.

@abcnews or more importantly 4 Corners should do a story on who ABC Management chooses to take to court and who it chooses to payout…. You can start Lattouf and Lerhman.

I don't have anything against Jen Psaki, but I think it stinks Joy Reid, a career journalist who's spent years doing the hard yards honing her craft, was axed and a political operator turned political commentator stays. It does Joy, Jen and us, the audience, a disservice.

It’s notable there doesn’t seem to be any real and palpable general animus from the audience toward Albo on #QandA tonight. Interesting.

Canning Joy Reid is a mistake. She is passionate, interesting, in-depth, clear, concise and JOYFUL. I didn’t always agree with her but I learn a lot in the process. The weekend crew are an echo chamber of general grievance.

The fate of American democracy now rests on the shoulders of the Judicial Branch of Government because we all know the Legislative branch will not uphold their responsibilities

take a cellphone video of you walking around your place, going over all of your belongings, it's admissible when trying to get insurance payouts for it
