As a hedge fund owner, Scott Bessent avoided over $900K in Medicare taxes by exploiting a major loophole.
As Treasury Secretary, he now oversees the IRS — which has backed away from closing the loophole since Trump took office.

Excellent explanation of a fairly bizarre appellate imbroglio created by the actions of TrumpLaw judges Rao and Katsas. Key point is that this matter is going back to the District Court, for further review of what appears to now be even more evidence of likely contumacious conduct.

In normal times, it would be a major scandal for the President to direct his AG to criminally investigate his political opponents to deflect from his own involvement in a major scandal — and for the AG to immediately announce she is doing it. The Epstein scandal and cover up just got even bigger.

Breaking: Trump on AF1 says he 'doesn't care' about the Epstein files getting released.
He then adds: 'You have to go into Epstein's friends.' He lists Reid Hoffman and Bill Clinton but not himself.

Why we need to end the Filibuster and Expand the Supreme Court.
If the US system remains trapped in an endless knife fight between a party of good government and a party of nihilistic governance then Europeans need to accept that the US will no longer be a stable partner long after Trump is gone
I'd just like to point out that we spent an entire shipment of air defense interceptors' worth of money on new signs for a name change that isn't even legally the name of the DoD.
Ukraine is currently experiencing rolling blackouts from Russian strikes, btw.

Letterheads and signage alone would quickly run the bill upward of $1 billion, with a full overhaul likely rising to double that amount.

This is your regular reminder that not everyone who wears a clerical collar is referred to as a "priest," but, instead, often referred to as "pastor" or "minister," and that this has been true — and, in the heavily-protestant U.S., the *literal norm* — for centuries.
