Great piece, the story in _The Atlantic_ is also funny and informative. www.marketplace.org/story/2026/0... Apparently the only federal job that doesn't take any brains is ICE agent. OTOH, most people wouldn't do well since you're required to deed your conscience to Miller and Noem.
How many federal jobs could you do?

Well the war in the Caribbean is not distracting the press from the Epstein files so in the classic fashion of "wag the dog" he'll start another one.
"But the one truth in Trump’s unhinged messages, as in so many of his statements, is that the United States is now led by someone who cannot contain his thoughts or emotions, and who still thinks of the men and women of the U.S. military as little more than his own toy soldiers."
