Very worth your time to read this. We must do better.
The destruction of the East Wing is a reminder that America has violated the only check-and-balance that actually ends up mattering: www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/the-only-c...

Absolutely
Democrats should be drawing up legislation right now, this very minute, to bar Trump from helping himself to $230 million in taxpayer funds from DOJ. Challenge Republicans to hold a vote on it. Push this so hard in the media that every GOP Senate and House candidate is pressed to comment on it.

And claiming they're "jokes" is no better. Disgusting jokes are uncalled for.
Trump's lack of respect for America's laws, institutions, and the Constitution have been clear for years. But his disrespect for the American people and embrace of disgusting AI-generated videos of him literally s******* on Americans are next level.

A bit bigger crowd at Boise NoKings than previous ones - but had to compete with a home Boise State Football game nearby, so that might have cut down on attendance. Still a great showing in a deep red state. And some great signs

I'm actually happy that #NYTSpellingBee didn't rewind to 2009 and accept this word.

Still good autumn color at Mores Mountain. But likely the last day, with likely snow up here over the weekend. #IdahoEscape

So true
It doesn’t matter what your politics are regarding immigration. If they do not begin and end with human beings needing to be treated with dignity and respect, especially when it comes to the enforcement of the law, your politics are wrong.

It's pretty embarrassing that the US elected some of the dumbest people ever, and they keep going in front of the media to show off how dumb they are. Over and over and over again.

Don't think I've ever felt this embarrassed to be an American. There's shame and anger too. But mostly embarrassment. We're the laughingstock of the developed world. And we should be.
Trump to the UN: "I'm really good at this stuff. Your countries are going to hell."
