Do you ever listen to an album only when in a specific kind of mood to the point of being conditioned to feel that way anytime you listen to it? For me this album is a perfect example of "thinking about loved ones on a sunny morning". It strikes that chord no matter what.❤️

One of the greatest ongoing scandals of today is that our elected officials — Democrats included — continue to refuse to ban members of Congress and their families from trading stocks.

This is a very good point that I haven't seen made yet.
It's not just Trump that is undermining trust in the US. It is also the inability of US institutions to stop him.
And even if you make that "inability to stop him so far," it's already too far to maintain trust.

From what I'm seeing in Europe, the real game changer here isn't really the Trump admin itself, but how quickly American elites - political, corporate, institutional and academic - just failed to respond and resist in any meaningful way.
US prestige culture, as seen from abroad, just evaporated.

When Trump imposed tariffs during his first term, companies who contributed to Republicans were more likely to be granted tariff exemptions.
Trump's corporate donors won't shoulder the cost of his trade wars — working class Americans will.
It's crony capitalism at its worst.

</h2>
<div class="content">
<div class="field field-field-text"><p>The Trump administration moved forward with the sale of more than 20,000 US-made assault rifles to Israel last month, according to a document seen by Reuters and a source familiar with the matter, pushing ahead with a sale that the administration of former president Joe Biden had delayed over concerns they could be used by extremist Israeli settlers.</p>
<p>The State Department sent a notification to Congress on 6 March for the $24 million sale, saying the end user would be the Israeli National Police, according to the document.</p>
<p>The rifle sale is a small transaction next to the billions of dollars worth of weapons that Washington supplies to Israel. But it drew attention when the Biden administration delayed the sale over concerns that the weapons could end up in the hands of Israeli settlers, some of whom have carried out attacks on Palestinians in the Israeli-occupied West Bank.</p>
