Worst Case is also Most Likely Case
Best case: The President of the United States knew about a pedophilia ring and did nothing to stop it.
Medium case: He also used his office to protect the perpetrators.
Worst case: Because he was one of the perpetrators.

Obscene.
Kind of wild that while food assistance was withheld from millions of families, one Trump-supporting billionaire (Ellison) saw his net worth grow more this year than the entire SNAP budget. And the YTD gains of the other four richest men would’ve fully covered salaries for all 2M federal employees.

Excellent summary.
Dick Cheney’s legacy is that he turned 9/11 from a national tragedy into a global disaster. He did so through a mixture of arrogance, stupidity and greed and blighted the last quarter century.

“Flooding the zone.”
Honestly, the strategy is working. No other President would’ve survived even one of these.
But when you commit an impeachable offense every other day, then demolish the East Wing just for funsies, no one can even keep track.

Workers were throwing plastic bags out the upper-story windows of the East Wing two months ago. This has been happening for a *while.*

I'm seeing a lot of "why do you even care about the white house fuck that building lol", and like, the horror people are experiencing about it isn't because they somehow hold it in their heart and love it, the issue that he was able to do this without a plan or authorization in like 72 hours

Has anyone thought to ask if the whole “throwing plastic bags out the window” incident from like six weeks ago was related to the demolition of the East Wing?
Not that we’d get a straight answer, but it makes sense that they have been emptying it out before demo’ing it.
Where’d all the stuff go?

Oh, I hadn’t even heard that he was calling it that.
“Epstein Ballroom,” really??
I mean it makes sense, given how close they were…but naming the ballroom after a well-known rapist?
I guess it’s not the worst thing he’s done, even just with regards to this fucking ballroom.

Why does everyone keep calling it “The Epstein Ballroom?” Please stop repeating “The Epstein Ballroom” because it is not called “The Epstein Ballroom!” Don’t tell the news that it’s called “The Epstein Ballroom” and please don’t repost this!!!!!

The majority found the regime’s claims to be “a colorable assessment of the facts and law within a ‘range of honest judgment.’”
Wow. I don’t think even a NYT communist could’ve come up with a better euphemism for “a lie.”

What do you need to know about Monday’s Ninth Circuit order about Trump’s effort to deploy the National Guard in Oregon?
A lot, actually, but I have you covered at Law Dork:

The Ninth Circuit's 2-1 Oregon National Guard order was just the start of getting to an answer
Monday's order granting the Trump admin a stay pending appeal in the Oregon case changed nothing on the ground immediately. But, it did crystallize where we are at — and going.

This is insane. Linsey Halligan raising the stakes on the definition of “anti-qualified.”
EXCLUSIVE: One Saturday afternoon in October, my phone lit up with a notification.
I glanced down at the message.
“Anna, Lindsey Halligan here,” it began.
So began my text exchange with the woman who is prosecuting the president's perceived political enemies.

On National Coming Out Day, know that I will always be an ally to you — no matter where you are on your journey.
I know that times may be scary, but you are seen, safe, supported, and loved here in Illinois.

But 3 invasions of cities, one military buildup outside Venezuela, a government shutdown, and so many other things meant to distract have me convinced whatever’s in there is the biggest presidential scandal in U.S. history.

He could’ve fought, but he faked bone spurs. So someone else had to go in his place - most likely a working class kid whose daddy couldn’t afford to bribe a doctor. Now he’s talking shit about how it should’ve been fought.

And it will be obvious that it was the turning point in public opinion.
