The leaders of this entire administration are an example of this.

Great book and somewhat prescient as it came out before Covid. I attended a talk with the author; she said much of her research came from reading survivalist websites.

I’m guessing the people of her state don’t generally keep track of her actual votes but like her expressions of “concern.” It’s how she keeps herself from being seriously primaried.

Didn’t say anything about “misinformed” or your mother.

“Uninformed” is a euphemism for “ignorant,” which is a euphemism for “stupid.”

I agree she should remove him. I
I also think there will be retribution against New York State if she does. I don’t envy her having to make the decision.

All Biden’s fault, according to our twice impeached and 34 times convicted current president.

He will, of course, blame Biden.

CFPB RIP. It was good while it lasted. Kind of like the good old USA.

Individual states might try to enforce court orders within their states where possible? But for now, Trump is above the law, despite the often heard mantra that “no one is above the law.”

Such things are not really considered news anymore, since they don’t really change anything. Sad.

Impeachment and removal clearly isn’t possible now, so presumably there would be no enforcement. Wait for it…

The faux Village People to receive honors, I’m sure. 🙄

He could run for vice president next with a collaborator running for president who will then resign and hand the presidency over to him. This is a loophole in the Constitution.

“Man Bites Dog” is news. The opposite is not.

There’s something very weird about his body. Even when he’s sitting down he’s always in that “sitting on the toilet” position. Too bad we can’t get an honest medical eval report on him — not even for his actual height and weight.

Oh! Okay!! I’m so glad he’s started lowering grocery prices. I’m heading to Kroger’s now! Yippee!!

And how will that lower the price of groceries? Ain’t seen any reduction yet. He said it would happen “very quickly” after his election! Why no exec order about that?
