Whatever reason = the unrestrained whims of a madman

Thinly veiled implies a bit of subtly.

Pardon me for being skeptical that this administration will follow judicial orders. So much damage has already been done and expertise/research lost.😠
comment in response to post
He cannot and never has been able to separate his personal whims from the office of the president and there are no longer any guardrails around him. He will react to whatever he hears or refuses to hear in the moment without regard to source. An extremely dangerous and very unpredictable situation.

There are no more guardrails--not from Congress, not from SCOTUS, and unlike Trump 1.0, not from advisers. We have the foreign policy of a personalist dictatorship. Read how we got here @foreignaffairs.com 3/ www.foreignaffairs.com/united-state...

Somehow all that seemed so ridiculous and hilarious then just seems dangerous and ominous now.

Btw, the giveaway here is ā€œcalls.ā€ SS has one phone number for all (no way to leave a message, call back doesn’t work) and since ā€œdogeā€ I’ve been in the queue for 5+ hours waiting for someone to pick up before I gave up.

As I sit here waiting on the SS survivor benefits application phone appointment it took me 3.5 months to get. It’s coming up on 9:30a and it was scheduled for 8:00a.

Zelenskyy is shockingly diplomatic after all this time and all he’s dealt with. My respect for this human just increases over time and I’m so grateful for it.

Insightful statement by Terry Moran that obviously hit a raw nerve in its honesty.

I know it’s not going to be a popular opinion, but I agree although I’d remove the word ā€œriotā€ (and I’m all for protests, marches and such). I was a kid in the 60’s - once enforcement gets out the teargas any point to be made is past and will be warped.

How many more of these cases are there that we don’t know about?

There is no high minded policy fight that people would only see if they weren’t distracted by the sideshow. There is no high minded policy fight, period. This is the show. It’s total garbage, and again our politics and our populace are degraded possibly beyond redemption. But this is it. (2)

I realized today why the movie Mountaintop didn’t seem to hit - it just didn’t go far enough.

My Finnish family has been telling these tales for 100’s of years. Rus cross their border, they’re just going to drag back you sons to die building their city or come to take over your country and not even bother to wear a winter coat. Brutally.

I took a screenshot of that. I’m going to show it when I plead for asylum in Canada
