Remember the right-wing frenzy over “Rich Men North of Richmond”? Well, this ruling exposes Trump-MAGA hypocrisy on the working class—and reveals a big media failure.

What Letting Trump Use Recess Appointments Could Mean
Donald Trump’s stated desire to use recess appointments is about more than putting his cabinet secretaries and other appointees in place without a fight.

Having used #VMware #Fusion for many years, this is welcomed news.
As the @theregister.com mentions, it's not #OpenSource and my stance on #VMware for the past 10 years is #ESXi should be #OpenSource.
If folks are already using #VirtualBox (which is fantastic), doubt they will care about this.

Trump has been nominating loyalists to serve in his Cabinet, and nowhere is that more obvious than in his pick for attorney general: Rep. Matt Gaetz.

There's a plan.
Trump announces Gaetz as AG.
Gaetz resigns from the House.
Gaetz hopes this prevents the release of a "highly damaging" ethics report.
But...if the report doesn't come out, senators should request it for his confirmation hearing.
