Just before sunrise at Angkor Wat - Siem Reap, Cambodia - June 2013
We left the hotel at 4 in the morning in order to get to the temple early enough to find a spot for sunrise without having a million other tourists in front of us.

Who the fuck is running this country? And with what legal authority.
I xannot believe how quick GOP congresspeople are to give up their power completely and abandon the constitution so easily.
Why are you taking orders from this unelected idiot?

The Justice Department is not the president's personal law firm. You are not his lawyers.
The free press should be exactly that — free. If the facts they report don’t align with the president’s propaganda, tough.
And this statement is a disgrace to the DOJ and the rule of law.

He lies about everything. And when he gets caught, he spews adolescent insults and more lies.
Elon Musk says he's going to "fix" X's community notes system because he disagrees with a note on President Trump's claim that Zelensky has a 4% approval rating in Ukraine.
Musk also claims community notes are "being gamed by governments & legacy media", but provides no evidence for that claim.
