Listening to Kara Swisher and Scott Galloway. He mentioned something he attributed to Cory Doctorow;
The Musk/Trump administration is creating two crowds. An "in" crowd to who are protected by the law, but not bound by it and an out crowd bound by the law but not protected by it.

This. Especially Senate Republicans.
The greatest political scandal today is not what Trump is doing. It is the fact that congressional Republicans have given up their role in the constitutional system as a check on the executive branch. If we are in a constitutional crisis, it is as much on Mike Johnson and John Thune as anyone else.

Hegseth is really bringing his best weekend morning Fox News energy to the meeting of the Ukraine Defense Contract Group.
His message to our allies; admit defeat, roll over, accept your fate.
Not quite the "warrior culture" we were promised from our Defense Department, is it?

Blagojevich is pardoned and Adams is off the hook, both Democrats mind you.
It would seem, so long as you are corrupt and will kiss his orange *ss, Trump is happy to work with Democrats.
Are they going to let Menendez out, as well?

Pardoning Blagojevich, and apponting him ambassador to Serbia.
The shamelessness is intentional.

Do we all remember when Republican kicked and screamed about Democrats litigating the past and were not protecting Americans from dangerous criminals, terrorists and drug cartels?

1. Let's be clear

A central premise of the Trump admin is there is pervasive discrimination against hard-working white men, who are being replaced by less-qualified women and minorities

So over the last 2 weeks Trump has implemented an aggressive affirmative action program for white men
Affirmative action for white men
Since taking office on January 20, President Donald Trump has targeted so-called "diversity, equity, and inclusion" programs, also known as DEI.

To be clear, USAID is a function of the US government that does what could be called "Christian" work, in the "feed the hungry", "take care of the sick" sense of the word.
