Y'know if the neighbor is willing to pay his landscaping contractor to come in every week and kill a half an hour blowing the same few leaves up and down the driveway, that's his business. But when it's a goddamn gasoline powered leaf blower, that's everybody's business for three blocks around.

Then it all goes tits up and they're begging for government intervention.

What he doesn't buy, his American buddies will shut down. PM Orbán, who is on his way to Washington, has already received his first gift from Trump: the closure of Radio Free Europe in Hungary. The reason? "Undermining staunch allies does not serve the American people."

Orbán buys one of the best-read newspapers of the country. This is a major deterioration in a media environment that is already heavily politically controlled, as highlighted in my recently adopted report. This cannot go on - there are no fair elections without free information!

When I worked in WaPo Opinions in 2017-2018, senior editors specifically told junior editors not to factcheck Marc Thiessen and other MAGA columnists, otherwise they wouldn’t be able to publish anything by them at all, and “we need them for intellectual diversity.”
It’s very telling that opening your publication to MAGA “thought” requires a massive downgrade in quality control.

Laws and rules cannot restrain King Trump except this one made up one that won’t allow him to feed hungry Americans
Trying to blame the Dems cutting off SNAP (while sitting on billons of available contingency funds) as his boss bulldozes the WH to build a ball room like Saddam's palace, sends $40 billion to bail out Argentines, and eats "gold adorned" brownies in Korea is not gonna work.

In the long run, Biden keeping that wall between himself and DOJ - leading to the conviction and humiliation of his son - achieved absolutely nothing. The standard is gone. The incentive for future presidents is to punish your enemies and say "your mom, lol" when reporters ask about it.
there are good & worthwhile historical & legal arguments for why the unitary executive is nonsense but to my mind the most straightforward argument is that it makes no logical sense that the president has absolute removal power over the people whose job it is to keep the executive branch accountable
The Inspector General system is basically broken now. Most IGs have been fired, most positions remain vacant. Those who remain or would take the job pose no risk to holding the regime accountable.
Congress added more barriers to Trump firing IGs after his first term. He just ignored them.

Just look at how cops acted during the last DSA-affiliated mayor: David Dinkins. He wasn’t anti-cop, he significantly expanded NYPD, increased their budget, all that, but because he pushed to hold bad cops accountable, they literally rioted.
