Yes, and the verb/subject disagreement is unfortunate. Mr. Bezos really needs an editor who understands that "data" is plural. The data tell us...You're welcome, Jeff.....

He stokes his needy ego insulting the Obamas, Ilhan Omar, Haitians, Somalis, "shithole" countries. Every cruel, racist, ignorant post he makes only diminishes him, not his targets. He is an empty suit, shrunken by hatred, as insignificant as a hunk of snot on the street. He's an odius embarrassment.

Give Mr. Scott credit for noticing this. He has overlooked trump's racist, ignorant screeds about Ilhan Omar, about Somalis, about Haitians, about "shithole" countries, etc. Have the scales fallen away? Will Mr. Scott now stand up for our country's "advertised" values of justice for all? Stay tuned.

My father escaped after the Anschluss. He said the Austrians were so naive, they kept saying "Hitler could never get away with all that." And "He's not planning to take Austria." And "There are people in government who would stop him." And so it goes.

the hat with the confederate symbol is a nice touch, don't you think?

Look how trump treats professional women. "You should smile." "Shut up, Piggy." If it were up to the rich, powerful men in the Epstein files, females would exist for breeding, sex and arm candy. It's a nauseating reality--one many of us have fought against (fruitlessly, it turns out) for years.

They didn't stand up when trump told a woman to "shut up, piggy," or when he caled another reporter stupid. Silence is acquiescence.

So, all those un-dressed young girls must have been quite the temptation for dapper don the con. When they say "money talks," this is precisely what they mean. It says stuff like "I'm so rich i can do whatever i want. I decide what morality is, and it's definitely not in my portfolio."

To use the term "american intelligence" in the same sentence as "donald trump" is the ultimate oxymoron.

So, why did the money have to be deposited in Qatar? We do have banks, and other repositories of $$ here in the US, don't we? When lil marco sold his soul to trump, did he deposit the proceeds in an account in Qatar? Asking for a friend.

Precisely. And how about white nationalist who murdered 23 people in an El Paso Walmart? Please, let's acknowledge that murder is murder, and immigrants are not responsible for every murder in this country. The president and his toadies can't help trying to demonize immigrants.

Here's another thing, Greg--shooting and killing an unarmed woman and then calling her a "f.....g bitch" is kind of over-cooked rhetoric, don't you think? As Gov. Pritzker says, stop acting like thugs, take the masks off, and see the people around you as human beings, not garbage. Harness your ego!

Many of the ICE thugs were part of the Jan. 6 mobs that ransacked the capitol and wanted to hang Mike Pence. Convicted, but pardoned by trump. They were thugs then and are thugs today. It's an insult to our democracy that trump pardoned them and that they're prowling our streets terrorizing people.

Sadly, Cruz is so integrity-deficient that he still can't bring himself to criticize trump out loud, where it might do some good. He is just another groveling toady, incessantly fluffing trump to protect his job.

Many of them had already been tried, convicted and imprisoned. They were part of the Jan. 6 mob that tried to overturn the 2020 election. trump pardoned them all, and now they're indulging their brutish, murderous instincts on the people of Minneapolis. Who's next? Americans must stand up to trump.

Denmark ignored Greenland? Health care lacking? Waltz should try being an average US citizen whose health care is not paid for by taxpayers. Also, Greenlanders should be terrified that the American way of democracy is to murder citizens for exercising their first amendment rights. What a Stooge.

Okay! I figured it out! trump is pissed because many of the people involved in the fraud in Minnesota were not white.

Our history is critical our future. trump's anti-American, anti-intellectual, anti-democratic treason will only deprive future generations of a comprehensive understanding of our history--so they can make our country's future more secure and more like the founding fathers and mothers envisioned.

This was a horrific crime. Ms. Morin and her family deserve privacy and peace. She and they don't deserve to be used as a prop, but Mr. Bovino keeps this violent episode handy so he can demonize immigrants. The man who murdered Ms. Morin in Maryland in 2023 was convicted in 2025 and is in jail.

Just wondering how many of his buddies got the word that he was going to announce a "deal," so they could jump into the market and catch the wave.
