Hold him to his commitment how? Have him arrested for contempt of Congress? Or just say a few unpleasant words in his general direction? Cause that's really shown them all, so far.

It's part of Project 2025. No surprise at this point.

Please call it the Big Ugly Bill. Do not use his words, but instead speak the truth. Thank you.

"Do better." What does that mean? Empty vague virtue signaling here.

Is it your goal to destroy the agency you lead, yes or no?

What they mean is, "We get to break the social contract, and we expect you to go along with that."

In this country, there's ALWAYS money for guns.

Everybody knows who is the one who needs anger management.

Imagine thinking that's real.

More guns = more death. I don't know why people fail to grasp that. Or see it as a problem.

It does not matter. He is the racist in chief, making ok for anyone else to be as racist as they wanna be. That's all that matters.

It's almost as if their commander in chief has no idea how to do anything.

But he has shipped all the tanks to his stupid birthday party

Ew.

Are the schools doing well by these children, or are they punishing them regularly and for little reason? Institutions for the disabled have a very long and dirty history of abusing their charges. Is that the case here?

"Tarnished his legacy?" Who are you kidding?

Because GUNS are worth more than DRUGS (and both, by the way, are worth more than women or anyone who is not white.)

The results of the 2020 election may constitute "illegal DEI?" These people are so steeped in their ideology, they can't tell when one scary buzzword has turned into a different scary buzzword.

I think the problem comes from how little we interact with actual people, in person. There are charts that show the amount of time people used to spend w family & friends. All of that & more we now spend on our devices. Not with people.

And "care about" does not mean "turn them into a replica of me."

"A rich dumbass." I can think of 2 others.

I think everyone should be required to work in retail or in restaurants for at least one year. Give everyone a greater appreciation of those who serve them.

Please don't amplify and legitimize the muskrat by quoting him.

So, they're traps to get immigrants to apply so they can be arrested?

Um, racism.

His writing style was lousy to begin with. Oh, but he was ghost-written besides? Geez, can this guy get more grifty-pathetic?

Why anyone continues to give this money-grubbing business, a.k.a "bank" any of their money baffles me.

Excellent! I went for a walk in a park yesterday. Crushed gravel paths, or dirt paths, trees everywhere, very bucolic. Some knob had brought his basketball. He dribbled it randomly on the dirt as he walked. I could hear & feel it yards & yards away.

YES. Did Musk target agencies that were regulating him and his businesses? YES Is everything about this administration intended to maximize their personal gain at the expense of everyone else? YES End of investigation. Now proceed to action.

That said, Frank Churchill remains a jerk.

I first read this under the tutelage of a very judgmental professor, and his reading of this book taught me to judge my own conduct very harshly. On this read, I see that castigating oneself is not the solution; the solution lies in being kinder to others.

Or with alt text! That's a great gift, too!
