I think a lot about CJ Roberts writing this in 2024: "The dissents' positions in the end boil down to . . . fear mongering on the basis of extreme hypotheticals about a future where the President 'feels empowered to violate federal criminal law.'"

This is the future Lutnick has planned for you & your kids. For his kids? Well, Lutnick appointed his sons Brandon & Kyle, ages 27 & 28, CEOs of the investment firm he led, overseeing 14,000 employees. I’m sure he did an extensive search & they were the most qualified. fortune.com/2025/02/20/h...

I'll contribute whenever (historically, it's pretty often) I can and as much as I can to Gov Pritzker because this is what we need right now. I'm contributing nothing to the DNC nor most Dem candidates until they decide to fight back hard. @kenmartin.bsky.social

Dems finally hired someone that knows how to reply 🤣💀

This Hegseth thing is funny and all — but the unprecedented incompetence, frivolity, and treachery of the entire cabinet puts us all at very real risk.

His dissent sounds as though he's got his eyes closed, his hands over his ears and he's yelling, "I can't seeeee you. I can't hearrrrrr you..."

Someone should find out whether or not Taylor Farms contributed to Trump and/or other GOP candidates. So many “secrets”…

The hateful childless cat lady didn't say 'wife' she said "that woman that he's married to". I want to slap her upside that smug face.

Guy who claims to be a master dealmaker can’t even strike a deal with one of his closest allies to secure the return of a man he mistakenly sent to prison?

It’s moments like these when we might consider it relevant that the current FBI director who might be charged with investigating this crime appeared eight times on the podcast of Stew Peters, a Christian Nationalist who recently called for a “final solution” to America’s “Jewish problem.”

More in No, Other People: New poll: “America would be better off if more people worked in manufacturing.” • 80% of Americans agree • 20% disagree “I would be better off if I worked in a factory.” • 25% of Americans agree • 73% disagree • 2% currently work in a factory

We have a winner…🏆
