I mean, his ego did get extremely bruised…

Someone’s about to get fired…

… No, not the one who made the mistake in the first place. It’s the guy who is admitting fault and apologizing. We can’t have that in Trump’s America!

I’ll believe it when I see it. So far, Republicans’ vows to go against Trump seem to have the same sticking power as their vows to their ex-wives.

We’ve run over a thousand simulations

What does that even mean? How do you run simulations on something like that? It makes me think she just kept asking ChatGPT over and over …

It doesn’t surprise me, the Senate is filled with 100 people who think they are future Presidents

I don’t know whether to laugh at Jeff for thinking that kissing the ring would make him safe, or to think that maybe Jeff ratted out his own employee for brownie points with the Administration.

You can’t tell me what to do

Oh no, Bill Clinton has definitely exposed his “D” to some consequences in his time …

Only if you have the magic ® after your name, because there’s no “R” in “Consequences”!

Maybe not. Remember that Noem lacks a key leadership feature as far as MAGA is concerned: a penis. She might just be the sacrificial lamb that Republicans use to say “SeE? wErE lIsTeNiNg” and try to calm down the sheep ahead of midterms. Then tell her “Thanks for your service, but can you go into the kitchen and get me a beer, honeybuns?”

But then, we need to be concerned about who gets appointed in her place. I hear Dan Bongino is looking for a job…

The “checks and balances” depend on putting ambitious people in different parts of the government, and giving them competing roles. Then, naturally, excesses get curbed because no one part of the government would want to cede too much of its power to the other.

It did not forsee a future where the leaders of the other co-equal branches of government would subjugate themselves to the President’s ego.

He may be a fascist murderer, but anytime someone tells me they are an “amateur botanist” I just assume they grow their own weed.

And if so, the irony is that it wouldn’t have been too long ago that the jackbooted thugs would have been coming for him instead.

Grab 'em by the Parliament

Lol it’s the GAS act.

Until the House impeaches and they convict, their words mean nothing. The Supreme Court was quite clear that the President is above the law, and impeachment is the only remedy. And if anything is impeachable, this is.

Incoming Truth Social post…

“This PROVES that Demonrat states are run by crooks, because only criminals use the Fifth Amendment!”

This is, at least, trying to solve an actual problem. It remains to be seen whether the solution is more cost effective (and durable) as bifocals. As a human of a certain age myself, I would welcome being able to see without having to tilt my head awkwardly.

But something tells me this tech is not self-contained, and requires an always-on connection to some cloud resource which is guzzling electricity and water. No thanks! Bifocals are cheaper.

Except that the Fed spokesperson said the expensive features were removed from the plan in 2021. Which, coincidentally, is when the Biden administration moved in. If these expensive features were never in the plan, they would have said so. This implies that they were in the plan at some point, during the first Trump admjnistration, and I wonder if they encouraged it as a trap. It sounds like the type of thing they would do.

Some Athiest should sue to get all religious texts banned in that district, using this ruling as direct precedent.
