Really says a lot about Republicans that they blocked their own budget bill because it didn’t harm enough people.

Why has Kid Rock not been arrested for obstructing ICE arrests after his restaurant sent undocumented workers home last week so they wouldn’t be swept up in an ICE raid, but Judge Dugan directing a man through a different door is a federal offense?

Wow, it sounds like a lot of people could use a hug right now. Thank you for all the love and the kind words. I try to remind myself a lot that the most important thing we can do right now is be kind to others and keep doing things that bring us joy. That's one of the best ways to fight back.

The Constitution forbids bribery *3 separate times*.
So important to the Founders they included two emoluments clauses, and made it the only named impeachable offense besides treason.
The Constitution is clear on banning bribery. It's just that Congress and the courts decided to pretend otherwise.

I’m still baffled at how America took one of the basic principles of the presidency — the occupant shouldn’t be able to benefit financially from the office — and just said, nah, that just doesn’t count for this one guy.
An international trucking logistics firm is buying as much as *** $20 MILLION *** worth of President Donald Trump’s crypto coins to influence the administration’s trade policy.

One hallmark of being an American is that you do not have to fear your government. If Trump’s first 100 days in office have changed anything, it’s that. He has subverted one of the major accomplishments of the Founding Fathers.

Marriott’s CEO said it straight: “We welcome all… we create opportunities for all… that’s who we are as a company.”
He went back to his hotel to find 40K emails from Marriott associates worldwide saying “thank you.”
Plenty of CEOs talk. Capuano showed up.

Ol' boy just said, "NOOOWWW here's a little story I got to tell..."
So… this was supposed to be about Paul Revere’s ride, but the Senator just unloaded about the Trump administration and its Republican enablers. Far more newsworthy than I expected. (You can probably see me shifting to “crap, this was not the interview I prepped!” but the result was memorable.)
