Recently retired former micro business owner. After community organizing for four years I bought a used truck in 1981 and made a living moving things with it for 43 years.
Yup, this is what occurred to me when I heard "last Merry Christmas".

Judges have already blocked the Executive Order to this effect, let's hope they block this too.

Remember Nixon may not have gone to jail but Attorney General John Mitchell, Chief of Staff Bob Haldeman, White House Council John Dean, and about 40 others did go to jail.

Google "USAID cuts to Panama screwworm project". The Panama sterile insect breeding program was cut when USAID funds were cut in March. They are building a new facility in Texas but meanwhile the screw worms are moving north and are now in Mexico and moving into Texas.

It's even deeper than that. The Department of Justice itself was established in 1870 in large part to enforce the civil Rights act of 1866 which was opposed by the first KKK in the south. As my father-in-law used to say "It's not one thing after another, it's the same damn thing over and over."

Anyone else notice the resemblance. Now we know where he got the idea of doing press conference like a TV talk show set in a living room.

He sounds like Claghorn Leghorn, I'm just waiting for him to say "pay attention to me boy, what do you say?"

The states are just an agent of the federal government? Where does it say that in the Constitution?

I agree 100% but the challenge is to get this message in front of Maga and then to get past their cognitive bias.

190 - 75 would mean 115 did not call. They can't even make stuff up which would make them look good. It's total incompetence.

I agree it was the stocks and bonds crashing at the same time which stopped him. It means we are loosing foreign investor confidence and signals inflationary recession.

Funny.... Not funny ... Sad but true. In their view essentially snake oil is the cure for everything.. And in reality everything they promote is snake oil.
