Daniels further criticized those who supported Trump, hoping they would realize the consequences of their choices in terms of economic and moral implications.

His comments reflect a broader critique of Trump's influence on American society and its values.

He expressed concern over the loss of decency, civility, and respect for the rule of law during Trump's presidency, labeling Trump a "snake oil salesman."

This statement attributed to Jeff Daniels about Donald Trump is accurate.

During an appearance on MSNBC’s Nicolle Wallace’s podcast, Daniels remarked, "He’s everything that’s wrong with not just America, but with being a human being."

This is our quiet stand—

I found his poem quite profound:

A New Beginning
We stand not in protest of the past, but in service of a better future.

Democracy, when true, brings governance with integrity.

Stability, when just, brings peace that lasts.

Global welfare, when shared, lifts us all.

Thank you, Mr. Lawrence…

We need young vibrant minds of today’s technology to run this country efficiently and effectively, with guidance and oversight—like Rep. Ro Khanna, representative for California's 17th congressional district.

Lawrence @ldog562.bsky.social · 18h

Just My opinion but we need change of leadership We need more Dems like Jasmine Crockett, Chuck Schumer is a good man but he isn't what we need to fight this regime & I'm exhausted of Hakeem Jeffries rhyming he cares more about what he sound's like then actual action,, Again just my opinion,

Investor Richard Tornetta, who challenged the deal, cites the use of a 2024 shareholder vote as flawed under Delaware law. As the case unfolds, the focus will be on Delaware's role in governing corporate board decisions.

If he uses federal budgets to green-light surveillance tools aimed at journalists and activists, keep it shut down.

None of these scenarios are abstractions. They're happening now.

Mm…

If Trump demands taxpayer dollars to bankroll ICE raids that rip families apart as we saw in Chicago, Democrats should continue the shutdown.

If he tries to funnel money into detention camps like "Alligator Alcatraz," keep it shut down.

Opinion | Democrats' shutdown wager might be paying off — but can they stick the landing?

Now that Democrats have gained some traction during the governmental shutdown, they must bring into sharp focus the true challenge of this moment.

Cash gifts are prohibited. Even after leaving office, former presidents must maintain ethical standards.

Crafting a bill to enforce stricter rules could help ensure transparency and accountability.

How quaint….!

There’s such a given: “Presidential Gift Rules” —Gifts over $50 must be reported. High-value items (like jets) can’t be kept; they must be returned or donated.

Trump and Hegseth give Qatar an airbase in Idaho and Qatari pilots will be flying jets over American airspace. Their lavish gifts and personal business deals with Trump worth billions really paid off for them.

In essence, while tax write-offs certainly motivate significant donations, the broader impact and intentions behind those contributions should also be considered.

Philanthropy in this context serves dual purposes—financial strategy and social responsibility.

Yes indeed…

Jack Dorsey’s $1 billion donation to combat COVID-19 is a strong testament to his dedication to global welfare.

This contribution, which accounts for 28% of his net worth, directs essential resources to underserved communities.

Twitter co-founder Jack Dorsey donated $1 billion, 28% of his net worth, to fight COVID-19, fund education, and pilot UBI programs.

What’s even more surprising is that he put it in a public LLC so everybody could see exactly where the money went.

This is nothing more than a continuation of the president’s desperate weaponization of our justice system.

With out “Vision” there cannot be life. A paraphrase of Proverbs 29:18, which states, "Where there is no vision, the people perish" (NKJV).

This highlights the importance of vision or guidance in life for both individuals and communities.
