Putin’s lifelong dream was to somehow separate the US from NATO. But how to break up a strong alliance that stood for 80 years and continued to expand? There really was only one way to do it, he figured it out a decade ago, and played the long game. Now his guy will do it.

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

Clarification: This is the conversation reporters should be having but aren’t… instead of simply taking sound bites, reframing the BS spouted and putting it back to the “spouter” in this example, Mike Johnson. Spouter - a person who speaks foolishly & without sense… 😂

While Musk runs the country, Trump had a productive weekend naming himself Chair of the Kennedy Center, picking the Chiefs to win the Super Bowl, canceling pennies, demanding Google Maps rename Gulf of Mexico, invited only White immigrants from Africa, and saved plastic straws.

Among the first times that Surfer realized K could feel the same energy that he could, coming from the cemetery nearby, during a memorial service. He was so excited that he could share it with someone. Huge moment for K too.

I you want to steal social security numbers: 1) You can send a fraudulent email pretending to be from a bank claiming the recipient needs to change their password, provide a link to a misnamed website, and prompt them to enter their SS number; or 2) Send some kids to take over Treasury computers.

Imagine saying this about an agency that has helped millions of people around the world avoid malaria, obtain clean water, and gain access to food & health care. Especially when you’re the world’s richest man & your net worth is something like 20 times this agency’s annual budget. What a foul soul.
