EPSTEIN-Trump is playing games. He’s seeking disclosure of grand jury material but that requires court approval which the law is VERY hard to satisfy. But the government TODAY can disclose all the other investigative material on its own without court approval. Why isn’t it doing that?

So if he doesn't listen to Hegseth, and he doesn't listen to Gabbard (as if they would be worth listening to),who does he listen to? Melania?

Do you feel it, too?
An intimation of imminent catastrophe?
A looming turbulence, "shots fired", casualties, deaths?
Marching lockstep in the street,
Bang banging on your door?
Our sons
—alienated, alien, enthralled—
Cheer the conflagration,
The flare of muzzles in the dark,
The death of empathy.

In this new episode, David Frum compares DJT to a crocodile, "he eats, he dominates, he hurts, he's an adapted predator…", and JD Vance to Lucifer.

Reagan on tariffs:

“We should be aware of the demagogues.”

A crystal-clear explication of the effect of aluminum tariffs both in the USA and Canada. The first 5 minutes make the case, but every subsequent minute is illuminating. The prospect is sobering.

My bet: about a month

Trump calls for a national policy to discard mail-in ballots that arrive after election day, no matter that they are postmarked on or before election day.

Has anyone noticed who has ultimate power over the post office?

Trump says it would make everything go away, yup: A women’s right to choose, universal healthcare care, affordable prescription drugs and childcare, maternity leave, safety in schools, a free press, the rule of law, campaign finance laws, our charter of rights and freedoms..

If I were a zillionaire, I'd buy billboard, tv, & social media ads with snippets of the New Testament, like those bits about welcoming strangers, loving enemies, expelling money-changers, and that thing about camels and needles.

They say they're Christians.

REMIND THEM WHAT THAT MEANS

Does the Judiciary have any enforcement powers, apart from the executive branch?

Isn't it obvious?

They're abrogating the constitution. That's the plan.

If DJT's proposal to 'own' the Gaza Strip and 'relocate' all Palestinians becomes real …

USA goes to war in the Middle East in, you think, two? three years?

Sooner?

I seem to remember reading–in an article online or a post–Elon quoted saying that the first months or weeks of the new administration were going to be tough on the economy, but once the shock was over we'd all be happy with the results. Does anyone recall what he actually said?
