Trading the Nobel Peace Prize to the president of the United States so he’ll militarily install you as president of your country seems a bit contrary to its intended purpose
Hannity: Did you at any point offered to give him the Nobel peace prize?
Machado: It hasn’t happened yet. We want to give it to him. Share it with him.

Almost 20 years ago, I warned we were heading toward a world where states invade each other at will, and that America had an obligation to restore the higher bar for going to war. Not gonna say I told ya so, but...well, okay, I will.

Feel like it’s important to note here that SCOTUS’s only job here is setting the floor.
If future Fed admins don’t want to let this happen, they can put it in the contract.
And if POTUS won’t do that, Congress can pass a law that requires pay.
This is a case that is easy to negate SCOTUS on.

Most notably JFK did not go around naming airports and art centers after himself. Other people did that, mostly after he was dead. This is Trump just vandalizing institutions like a child with a crayon in a room full of white walls and there are no adults willing to stop him
Maria Shriver, niece of JFK:
He was a man interested in the arts, culture, education, language, history... It is beyond comprehension that the president has sought to rename this great memorial.
C’mon my fellow Americans! Wake up! This is not dignified. This is not funny... It’s downright weird.

The RequestIndy system (Indy’s system for citizen street-issue reporting) is the WORSE. The reporting categories it forces you to choose from are ridiculous. The only way to report broken flex posts is to call them guard rails! It feels as if its poor design was deliberate to discourage its use.

This is beyond appalling. The U.S. government is deliberately trying to kill its own citizens and I cannot explain it. This is madness. Psychotic madness brought on by the megalomania of delusional frauds who have lucked into power.
If new proposals detailed in an FDA memo are put into place, experts told me it would mean the end of annual flu shots. And end of most vaccines for pregnant people. And maybe the end of updates to pneumonia vaccines. And more.
