Check out the part where the White House says they have zero tolerance for violence against law enforcement. They left out a footnote: Except for pardoning people who did that on J6.

Marriott’s CEO said it straight: “We welcome all… we create opportunities for all… that’s who we are as a company.”
He went back to his hotel to find 40K emails from Marriott associates worldwide saying “thank you.”
Plenty of CEOs talk. Capuano showed up.
Marriott still has my business.

Previous to the FDA, folks would put chalk and plaster of Paris in milk to make it appear white. They could also add formaldehyde to cover the smell and taste of spoiled milk.

Not to state the obvious, but none of them were sent to a terrorist prison in El Salvador. They all had lawyers, indictment by grand jury, a trial or a guilty plea where a judge ensured it was knowing & voluntary & access to an appeals process. In other words, all the hallmarks of due process.

Thank you, Senator @vanhollen.senate.gov, for your advocacy and diligence on Mr. Garcia's behalf. If the Trump administration can do this to an innocent man, they can do the same to the rest of us. Citizens, beware.
I've been in El Salvador all day fighting for the return of Mr. Abrego Garcia.
The Trump Administration can lie all they want, but the Court said they failed to show he was part of MS-13. This is about bringing home a man they ADMIT should never have been abducted. I won't rest until then.

So much going on but I’m trying to fight the urge to go off on my ex business partner who is a full out covert narcissist, now portraying himself as this happy nomad, claiming he can help people understand the types of abuse HE plants on others.

Autism didn’t make them do it. Mental illness didn’t, either. This personal piece from The Big Picture cuts through the excuses and names the real issue: some people are just hateful, and we need to stop giving them cover.
Neither Neurodivergence Nor Mental Illness Made Them Bigots—They're Just Awful People
It's hard to admit your heroes are jerks, but the mentally ill and neurodivergent shouldn't be collateral damage.

Today is the 80th day that the U.S. President is running a backdoor bribery scheme in which any CEO or foreign oligarch can send him money secretly through his crypto coin scam in exchange for favors.
It's the biggest scandal in the history of the Presidency.
