#hilton thank you @hiltonhotels.bsky.social @hiltonhonors.bsky.social Putting together a spring break trip to NYC for my granddaughter and it makes me happy to reserve a room with you!
“No room at the Inn” is a biblical reference about immigrants (Jesus’ parents) being turned away. Not the government. Way to go, Hilton! The 3rd Amendment protects private entities from having to house the government.

Always remember that listening to music can be the entire activity. Put on headphones. Blast it through speakers. Close your eyes and just listen.
Listening to music is not a background activity. It can be the entire journey, and it's worth the time.

RFK Jr was not invited to Tatiana's funeral. That in itself is enough of a statement for me about the craziness of RFK Jr.

#USA is not at war with #Venezuela unless and until it is authorized by an act of Congress.
Until then, it is an unconstitutional action of 47 involving the DoD in an illegal move in Venezuela.
The people of USA have not authorized a war. Far from it.

I'm not even joking.
Given the abysmal track record of Trump's DOJ in prosecuting people Trump has targeted, there is a non-zero percent chance that Maduro is acquitted or his charges dismissed.
And wouldn't that end up being an "because of course" moment?

When America abdicates its role as a defender of freedom and becomes the oppressor, it emboldens dictators everywhere.

I don’t understand how the first reaction from leadership isn’t “This is an impeachable offense. My colleagues must defund Hegseth and begin drafting articles immediately.”
Like, even if it doesn’t get done, how are you not planting this flag in the ground immediately?

Trump has just announced he is going to RUN another country (with or without boots on the ground) to ensure oil flows for US companies.
Yes, there’s still people - including in Latin America - pretending this is about Maduro winning elections or not.
How is a Trump occupation any more legitimate?

If Donald Trump wanted these records reviewed and released quickly, they would be. Lawyers from other government agencies could be deployed to assist with the review. Nonlawyers could handle many of the administrative tasks. Trump could pressure compliant private law firms to contribute resources.
