Pam Bondi and Pete Hegseth have made stronger statements about the military's right to refuse illegal orders than I did. I'm glad that the 2016 version of Pete Hegseth understood the law and the UCMJ. I'm sorry that the 2025 version doesn't seem to care.

Everyone (esp media) pay attention. In 2021 almost every Republican attacked the Biden administration and State dept for being too slow in approving Afghanistan special visas as Afghanistan fell.
Now they are attacking Biden for doing what they asked him to do.

My 2 cents:
- Trump saw Mamdani’s meteoric rise. He beat everyone, including him and the oligarchs.
- Mamdani ran on affordability and fighting for the working class.
- Trump doesn’t care about either but he wants to be seen as such.
- Embracing Mamdani is his way of co-opting these issues.

I still can't get over how Trump just nuked their midterm strategy of using Mamdani as a boogeyman by pretty much endorsing him while looking like a kid meeting his favorite star athlete 🤣
Mamdani walked in with an agenda. Trump walked out repeating it.

In a stunning White House meeting, Donald Trump abandoned his party’s narrative and embraced New York City’s mayor-elect, while Mamdani stayed laser-focused on issues facing the city.

Piggy has signed off on the release of the Epstein files.
There is a loophole in the law that lets the DOJ withhold anything they deem is part of an active investigation.
It’s precisely what Piggy is counting on.

I would argue they should donate it because they haven’t worked.
