This is a great example of how Trump only cares about himself and looking good in front of his fans.
I'm reminded of Galinda's offer to "fix" Elphaba at some undefined time in the future with powers she didn't actually have at the beginning of 'Wicked".

This presidential “pardon,” as it’s for a state crime, is the equivalent of digital toilet paper, only flimsier and serving a less useful purpose.

I just purchased "The Apprentice" for $5 on Fandango at Home and watched the beginning of the movie to get a taste before watching the whole thing when time is available.
His father is accurately portrayed as VERY verbally abusive to both of his sons, calling them disappointments and failures.

Will someone please give this desperate fool a hug? He clearly must have been neglected or abused as a child. I'm willing to take one for the team if it means he'll get sime desperately needed therapy.

A couple of weeks ago, I theorized that, due to being one of nine children to an assassinated father and being a notable Kennedy Black Sheep due to drugs, RFK Jr didn't get the attention he thought he needed early in life and has now essentially become an attention addict.
This is a time in our nation's history that will be remembered for all the broken fools who needed so much attention.

Not only is ICE snatching hard working people who are trying to earn a living, they’re taking their money too?
A witness recorded ICE agents taking a cash box from a taco stand in La Puente during an operation where four people were arrested.

Not to defend Olivia Nuzzi, who broke every rule in journalism and promoted a charlatan to his current position. But it's incredibly telling that she will lose her job, but RFK Jr. gets to stay in his job despite the reports of his drug use, his affairs and his defenestrating of public health.

How long before we all realize that every Trump/GOP accusation is a confession?

Woke up this morning with sudden terrible neck pain. Twisted my ankle going down the stairs and then I sliced my finger on a can of beans.
Prepping a turkey breast on one foot with one hand without being able to look down was a new challenge, but I was up for it!

Hmmm…what USAID wasn’t bad for America…what if getting rid of it only hurt us and everyone else?
What if the richest man in the world being responsible for ending aid to the poorest people in the world will go down as one of the most bizarre and disgusting acts of the 21st century?

Authoritatively asserting that one's opinions are more valuable than everybody else's actual evidence is not exclusive to the Reactive Right.
All it takes is a lack of sufficient humility to be able to admit when you are wrong or WHOLE lot of Dunning-Kruger.

This is lunacy. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is, at best, an environmental lawyer. He has no experience or degree in medicine or science.
This is tantamount to me, an English major, giving NASA a Post-It outlining how they should revise their entire approach to the astrophysics of dark energy.

Breaking News: Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said he personally instructed the CDC to abandon its position that vaccines do not cause autism. The move underscores his determination to challenge scientific orthodoxy — in this case, that vaccines save lives — and bend the health department to his will.

EVERY accusation aimed at one of his perceived enemies from Donald Trump is almost certainly an admission.
In the hands of others, it can be an effective strategy. But, for Donald Trump, it's basically a lack of imagination compounded by low effort in finding something might actually stick.

Thanks to Angela Collier, I recently discovered that Goethe was revising Faust Part II (my favorite version of the Faust stories) practically up until his dying day. In total, a period of SIXTY years.
