To further the Waymo rant...
They're all over my area of LA. Every 5th car is a Waymo and 90% are empty. Just driving around adding to already bad traffic.

Once you get past the novelty of a Waymo, here's a reality:
Stuck. Blocking a side street backing up traffic.
Who do you talk to? Those passengers (if any) had to walk in the rain to figure something out.
F*ck Waymo.

Since he likes slapping his name on everything, let’s call them The Trump-Epstein Files.

I mean...it's totally normal for the DIRECTOR OF THE FBI to go on a podcast describing how he met his girlfriend, right?

What would Hoover think about all this?

Man...if John Yoo says that what you're doing is criminal...you know you went too far.
Let's put Hegseth on a boat off the coast of Venezuela.

After seeing Trump's Reiner comments I'm convinced he's pure evil. He's never done anything to help mankind. He only built ugly buildings for rich people.
He does the bidding for whoever has his ear. He is 5 minutes away from Miller telling him to exterminate the folks arrested by ICE.
