I anybody curious why Trump continues to pardon corrupt officials?

Buried deep in the text of the more than 1,000-page bill is a measure to restrict the federal courts’ authority to hold officials in contempt if they violate court orders.

The Rules Committee meets at 1 AM on Tuesday night/ Wednesday morning to ram through this disastrous bill. Why? Because they don't want you to see them ripping healthcare from millions of Americans. You do not hold a hearing for a bill at 1 AM unless you're completely ashamed of it.

Right? It’s just absurd that the media won’t address this.

it would be cool if some members of the mainstream media cared as much about this administration lying about who's running the agency dismantling the federal government as they do about the former president’s age

I'm very skeptical that the bomber was anti.natal - that is, against anyone having children. I'm at the point where I don't believe anything DOJ or FBI say. Are they covering up a MAGA?

Misleading and not true. Disclose the full deal! Experts say it will take multimillions and several years to get that Jet ready for use as Air Force One. And then it goes to Trump's Library - which is an oxymoron in and of itself.

"So if the media were going to put their thumb on the scale – as they inevitably do – they ought to have done so in defense of democracy, the rule of law and human decency. The failure to do so is playing out in our shattered world." That's by Margaret Sullivan. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Great take on the current situation - and most likely true through the presidential campaign- see Shrinking Trump - podcast with strong evidence of Trump's mental and pychological decline.

What I get from the Biden's-decline book is a vivid picture of the self-reinforcing culture of denial/deflection that builds up within the closest circle around a frail president. So the takeaway isn't "Democrats must atone." It's that it's surely happening again, to a greater extreme, right now.

It's only a litmus test if the media akes it one, and once again, the media may be one of the prime reasons if blue doesn't sweep in 2026. Even liberal media keep stepping on its own foot.

There is literally no excuse for any publication, including @nytimes.com, to interview Eastman about literally anything. If they choose to go that route, though, there is no excuse for them not to say "disbarred insurrectionist John Eastman." Every. Single. Time. they mention him. 1/

We should stop referring to him as RFK, Jr. It's an insult to his father, who would disagree with him, as most of his family already does - and they know he's crazy.

Kennedy learned, or maybe he already knew, that he could blatantly lie with impunity in a Trump administration, and get away with it. His position on the measles vaccine is utterly and entirely a lie, and kids are dying.

The significance of this, of course, is that the administration claims it is deporting people to fight anti-Semitism but they are letting this bigoted turd in.

He misleads and lies. David Geier did sue and a trial judge erroneously entered a default judgement against the Maryland Board. But it was all reversed by the Appeals Court, and the decision describes without saying it, a biased and ignorant judge who ignored precedent.

Our government is going to hand back and forth one increasingly bugged jet a month with Qatar until they're eventually just exchanging a toilet with a giant microphone in it.

Am I the last to know? The Qatar jet offered to Trump turns out to be an item unsuccessfully for sale since 2020. The "gift" is not only a Trump grift, but also an attempted scam on the US taxpayer, who will assume costs the owners no longer wish to pay. onemileatatime.com/qatari-royal...
