The people are not going to get out of the habit of going to the theater just because they are boycotting the Kennedy Center. They can just go to other theaters that haven't been compromised by Trump and MAGA.

Yeah, they will encourage people to come to the Kennedy Center. Come see a ultra-MAGA performer while you sit in uncomfortable seats. They should bring back Trump Vodka and make it the official/only drink offered at the bar.

Staying out of the race might be the smart move for them. A failed run for office could ruin their political career, so why not wait 2 or 4 years and try then if the political environment looks more promising?

How many of these congressmen are "stepping down in dignity" instead of facing a defeat at the poles. They don't care about the country, they care about their own legacy.

They always go after poor people, because poor people can't afford good lawyers.

I can't wait for the IOC to also invent a peace prize and award it to Trump before the 2028 Olympics. It seems to be what corrupt organizations do now, appease Trump with false accolades and shiny presents.

So, two things: First, there are far fewer immigrant criminals as they claimed and second, going after criminals is far more dangerous than going after non-criminals. They all count as "dangerous" immigrants deported to the MAGA base.

We are witnessing natural selection in action. The traits that cause people to ignore medical science are no longer suppressed by vaccine mandates. Unfortunately those too young to make their own decisions are paying the price for their parents' genetic deficiencies.

Just show him the ending of A Few Good Men. Even though they soldiers were given illegal orders, they were still dishonorably discharged because they should have refused to carry out the orders.

They know two things. One, Mamdani isn't an authoritarian so even even his most radical plans will take a while to be realized. Two, there are too many upsides to living in New York City for them to leave.

So he is basically admitting he had sex with a 14 year old on Epstein Island, but that it is OK, because 14 is the age of responsibility in his mind. He should read the novel A Time to Kill. He have the part of Pete or Billy Ray, it doesn't matter which.

People are going to find that the cost to make and distribute pennies does not equate to the value of the metal in the coin. The coins are mostly made of zinc, with a thin skin of copper. Separating the two again costs money, as does collecting and transporting them. So worth less than a cent.

They only really care about the people in high enough positions to get their health care through their company, and they want those people to be handcuffed to those companies so they can't quit and start a new company. The don't really support entrepreneurs, only rich people starting new companies.
