Muskrat cries, "Who takes joy" in the cratering of Tesla stock, to which millions reply, "WE DO! SO MUCH JOY!"
he sounds like he’s gonna cry!
Musk: I mean, have you Tim Walz, who is a huge jerk, running on stage with the Tesla stock price.. What an evil thing to do. What a creep, what a jerk. Like who derives joy from that?

They’re not going to get out of this by playing semantics.
Sending detailed information about an upcoming military strike on unclassified channels (and even to the wrong guy) is wrong, reckless, and obviously a threat to American troops.

In today's hearing Radcliffe says basically "Nobody died because of the exposure of attack plans, so it's all good." Any member of the military using that defense would be locked up in Leavenworth soon after. #SignalGate

If an ignorant amateur doesn't understand what classified info is, it doesn't mean he didn't commit a crime when he shared it on an unsecured device. Our national security team is staffed by ignorant amateurs. #SignalGate

Bennet: Did you know the President’s Middle East advisor was in Moscow on this thread? This sloppiness, this incompetence, this disrespect for our intelligence agencies and the personnel who work for him is entirely unacceptable. It's an embarrassment

Buttigieg: Nobody in Elon Musk's family is at risk from the kinds of economic or security harms that are going on here. They think all of this is a joke or a game because these are incredibly rich, powerful men who, frankly, don't have to worry about the kinds of things most Americans do.

Writer folks; dramedy is my genre. Not looking for my big break. Looking to write my best work and cheer others on. Best known as a playwright. Writing fiction since covid ("The Book of Brad" published by me, because publishing is just nuts these days).

Political folks, I often post commentary here. Former Congressional nominee when I was young and stupid. Got a Ph.D and taught all over the US and in Egypt at the American University in Cairo. Dissertation was on separation of church and state. Spoiler alert, I'm for it.
