The Times’s Glenn Thrush "...Trump is employing the vast power of his office to redefine criminality to suit his needs — using pardons to inoculate criminals he happens to like, downplaying corruption and fraud as crimes, and seeking to stigmatize political opponents by labeling them criminals.”

@gtconway.bsky.social By blocking foreign students, Trump is signing the death certificate of American exceptionalism.

As usual, Rubio, the son of Cuban immigrants who entered on a special status, is confusing the Chinese Gov with the Chinese people. Most of them are as much pawns in their Gov's game as Americans are in a Trump administration.

Trump Admin will rewrite history: FBI to reinvestigate 2023 White House cocaine discovery and leak of Supreme Court Dobbs draft - The Guardian

The grift is on and on and on!

If fast begun is half-done, Trump Admin with the takeover of the State Dept is well on its way to having MAGA philosophy control all aspects of American lives including schools, colleges, injecting pseudo-religion into every day life, and dismantling checks and balances.

Why Is This Supreme Court Handing Trump More and More Power? Me: Fear and religious fervor NY Times www.nytimes.com/2025/05/25/o...

Prof Steven Pinker of Harvard (who is Jewish): The concern for Jews is patently disingenuous, given Mr. Trump’s sympathy for Holocaust deniers and Hitler fans. The obvious motivation is to cripple civil society institutions that serve as loci of influence outside the executive branch.

Mr. Wertheimer said the accumulation of so many conflicts puts Mr. Trump on the all-time list of presidential graft. “He’s got the first 10 places on that,” he said. “He’s in the hall of fame of ripping off the presidency for personal gain.” www.nytimes.com/2025/05/25/u...

Trump and co are setting up a system where they will never give up control: 1) create systemic corruption where everyone is part of it 2) use AG/DOJ and levers of Gov to go after anyone who can come in their way 3) use economic tools to benefit their followers;

“I was dumbfounded,” Ted Mitchell, the president of the American Council on Education, told me. “What’s becoming increasingly clear is that this administration will use any tool that it can.”

Repub bill has money for religious schools: The legislation sets aside $5 billion to fund vouchers for families, who can use the money to pay for K-12 private school tuition, home-schooling or virtual learning....with much of the money going to pay for religious education.

Hidden in the Repub budget bill per NY Times: The bill would block federal judges from enforcing their contempt citations if there is no bond. It would apply retroactively to ongoing cases in which judges are weighing whether to hold Trump administration officials in contempt over deporting migrants

Trump Admin lies without shame including the cross wearing Press Secretary. Whereas Jesus says: "You belong to your father, the devil...not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies” (John 8:44, NIV)

FT- Analysis by the non-partisan Comm for a Responsible Budget & the Univ of Penn Wharton School finds that the bill will add $3.3tn to US debt over the next 10 years. The debt-to-GDP level would jump from 98% to 125% - a level well in excess of the previous high, reached in the aftermath of WW2.

This day,1881: Blanche Bruce became the first Black register of the Treasury, after being the first Black to complete a 6-year term in the U.S. Senate (Mississippi). He was the only former slave to preside over the U.S. Senate, Feb. 14, 1879, in a debate over a bill to exclude Chinese immigrants.
