Lincoln at Cooper Union, 1860 “Your purpose, then, plainly stated, is that you will destroy the government, unless you be allowed to construe and enforce the Constitution as you please, on all points in dispute between you and us. You will rule or ruin in all events.”

I’m far too sad right now to focus on the future, to pushing forward through this. …so I’ll take a brief moment to remember who had it right

Anyone else think this exemplary leader is the most likely to first shatter the glass ceiling as President of the USA? (Apologies to those who believe that vocalization of the sentiment is bad mojo)

Please share this everywhere

Mr. Bill Wilson - any comment?

Yes.

Trump: "People are coming to me and talking about tariffs. And a lot of people are asking me if they could have exceptions." (this sort of patronage system is the point of Trump's tariffs)

the reason republicans piss me off so much is that almost everything they say is a blatant assault on my intelligence. they legitimately think all of their constituents are morons

Like the spoiled children of the rich who squander their unappreciated legacies, a vast swath of Americans are taking for granted the hard-earned freedoms and rule of law that made us a rich and powerful nation. If we are not careful we will lose our inheritance forever.

A whole damn US political party- Opposition leaders paralyzed and mute- Silent law firms- Judges and officers of the courts rejecting truth and reason- Media motivated by both personal and corporate greed- As a boomer, I deeply regret and apologize for any role I may have played in all of this.

I've said it before and will say it again -- the Trump administration is not acting like one that fears democratic accountability next year or in 2028. Draw your own conclusions.

Any psychologist or psychiatrist (or former abused spouse) will tell you that President Zelensky gave a master class today on how to deal with a malignant narcissist. He is an amazing man. We can all learn from him.

I have solved Bird Flu. Give the chickens ivermectin. Have the chickens practice Earthing. The problem with their immune systems is they are not touching the soil enough. Coffee enemas for all chickens. Also we must stop reading them Ibram X. Kendi. Eggs will be back and most importantly not gay.

In the absence of appropriate staffing, the National Nuclear Security Administration institutes an honor-based policy of Take a Nuclear Weapon Leave a Nuclear Weapon.

I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again: an administration (and its supporters) who believe that they are not limited by the rule of law have no moral or philosophical claim to the protection of the rule of law. “The law is whatever we say it is” warrants the same in response.

Okay. Listened to some Dem congresspeople interviewed today. They say they will be hard on debt limit negotiations. Seems naive to assume there will even be a debt limit issue now that DOGE digital demons are into Treasury data.
