I feel like Trump has pioneered a new form of spoils, where criminal allies of the President can expect to be compensated for their crimes.
The settlement talks between the Trump administration and Michael Flynn and Stefan Passantino marked a change in position by DOJ, which previously had successfully argued in court to have both of their lawsuits tossed out

Most studies do not have the samples to test interactions.
They are underpowered.
They yield unstable estimates.
Routine IA testing dumps unreplicable noise into the literature.
We already have too much of that.
So just stop.

Once again, if you wrote a story in which the jetsetting corrupt FBI chief took a government plane to the "Boondoggle Ranch" an editor would tell you to get a different job, because you're not cut out for writing believable stories.

“woke” is when you acknowledge that black people have contributed to the united states
Two panels commemorating the contribution of Black American soldiers towards the liberation of the Netherlands in World War Two have been quietly removed from a cemetery in Limburg. It follows a complaint by right-wing think tank The Heritage Foundation to the American Battle Monuments Commission.

Beshear: Let me be clear. The president has both the funding and the authority to fund snap during a shutdown. In fact, every other president in every other shutdown has done so. People going hungry in this instance is a choice that this president has made.

Can't overstate how fucked up it is that unraveling what is arguably the greatest achievement in the history of humanity is now a motivating issue of one of the two dominant parties in the U.S.
FL is moving forward w/ plan to end all childhood vaccine mandates. Starting with hepatitis B, chickenpox, and the bacteria causing meningitis and pneumonia. Then next year GOP FL legislature is expected to revisit 1977 law re: whooping cough, measles, polio, rubella, mumps, diphtheria, and tetanus.

Simply incredible that these acts are not sufficient for Republican politicians to speak up. The abdication of their moral (and job) duties in unfathomable. You can tell that they don't fear Dems enacting such move in the future though or they wouldn't stand for it.

It’s hilarious how world leaders make so clear that they think Trump is an idiot and easily manipulated and he doesn’t realize it at all.
