True story: I once had a client that got bought out by a large conglomerate. They fired everyone who knew anything and drove the company to the verge of bankruptcy in less than a decade. Many, maybe even most, businesses are poorly run. Running the country like a business isn’t really a good thing.

This “rule of law” thing appears to be going swimmingly. All of a sudden in the USA apparently ignorance of the law is a defense! Just make sure you don’t ask for legal advice!

He is admitting that he doesn’t want lawyers to stop him from breaking the law. No one would stop him from issuing lawful orders, so this has to be about unlawful ones.

Dear Manager, This week, 1. I've paid my dues time after time. 2. I've done my sentence but committed no crime. 3. And bad mistakes? I've made a few! 4. I've had my share of sand kicked in my face. 5. But I've come through!

Why did Hegseth just fire every top military branch lawyer? What did they refuse to sign off on? A Pulitzer awaits the reporters and outlet who can tell the public.

There shouldn't be a Supreme Court showdown. There's no rational argument in favor of DOTUS's argument. The last appellate decision is correct.

Hubs and I just got our renewed passports, 5 weeks after applying. We are shocked - it's supposed to be 10 weeks - and very pleased. Some folks at the State Dept. are working their butts off for the people. Thank you to all who processed these so fast. We appreciate you.

This story can't be repeated enough. The GOP is lined up behind the guy who is so incompetent that his quasi-gov't agency did this. They're confirming his highly questionable nominees & hurting the American people. And "accidentally"? It was stupidity, not accident. www.nbcnews.com/politics/dog...

Kids used to be there to help the family unit survive. People has so many because many kids would die in youth. Just like dictators and their nobles tolerated serfs and peasants because they needed the smallfolk's labor.
