“What you have, I think, is that the president's fundamentally lost the battle of ideas. What you normally do with an economic program is you come up with some ideas and you try and convince people of the virtues of them. He has fundamentally failed.”

There is a reason why Witkoff did not want any officials with the State Dept or anyone else present during his many meetings w/Putin - he didn’t want witnesses to his treasonous behavior. Highly unusual, but makes perfect sense when you consider that he only cared about Russia.

Really looks like the United States is about to launch a regime change war against Venezuela with:
-No casus belli
-No authorization from Congress
-No allies or international support
-No plan for a post-Maduro Venezuela
-No preparation for any sort of stabilization or containment of the fallout

If you receive an illegal order, you have a duty to disobey.
This isn’t controversial.
A President calling for the execution of anyone who reminds service members of this oath is showing us why the duty to disobey illegal orders is so important in the first place.

No lawmaker in Congress should be able to buy, own, and sell individual stocks. Period. Let's make Congressional stock trading illegal.

In the century leading up to 1975, nearly 6000 freighters went down in the Great Lakes.
The Edmund Fitzgerald was the last.
The last. In 50 years, not a single commercial freighter has been lost in the Great Lakes.
Why?
It's NOAA. Of course it's NOAA.

On the NBC news now: the admin is threatening to cut 20% of air flights.
Everyone whose flight has gotten canceled should march on the Hill or their statehouses with big signs that say "GOP: Stop Being Massive Assholes & Support ACA Subsidies, Already"
Someone please organize this for Monday.

I'm no lawyer, but the Supremes seem unimpressed by the President's lawyer in the tariffs case.
Prediction markets have revised the probability of the White House winning (and the tariffs being found constitutional) from 45% to 30% in just half an hour.

Free and fair elections are good for business. Having a stable rule of law is important to the economy. Not having people afraid to go to work because they might be beaten up or disappeared is essential to a productive workforce. Democracy is essential for a strong economy.
