Retired 4-Star Navy Admiral and former Navy SEAL William McRaven on Donald Trump: "Through your actions, you have embarrassed us in the eyes of our children, humiliated us on the world stage and, worst of all, divided us as a nation."

It's not rude to note many professions make more than writing. They also make more than being a musician, or an artist, or an actor, or a dancer, etc, for all but probably the top 1%-5% depending on the outside profession and the type of creative. Creative fields are very Power Law in terms of pay.

Nightmare fuel.
If Iran has terrorist sleeper cells in the US, and they pull off even a single terror attack, Trump will use it as an excuse to:
1) Crack down on activists.
2) Persecute Persian Americans.
3) Militarize the streets.
4) Stop the election.
This is the election coup in plain sight.
He is not leaving legally or peacefully.

BREAKING: Judge Brann has ejected the new leaders of the NJ U.S. attorney's office, once again finding the Trump administration is illegally attempting to circumvent Senate confirmation.

So far the war on Iran has cost $9.4 billion.
That's $1 billion per day.
$41,666,667 per hour.
$11,574 per second.
Thousands of lives lost.
People don't want this. They want a living wage. They want healthcare. They want to be able to afford a home. They want their basic needs met.
It took Trump 10 days to create an energy crisis reminiscent of the 1970s, replace Ayatollah Khamenei with Ayatollah Khamenei, and weaken our alliances worldwide. He put American servicemembers in harmβs way, resulting in seven deaths. None of this made you safer or better off.

They'll just get them online, their parents medicine cabinet, or friends. They aren't going to stop access, only safe access to hormones. Trans people have been getting access to hormones via nonmedical pathways for over half a century.
Our bases are being bombed.
Our embassies are under attack.
Thousands of Americans are stranded.
Innocent Iranians are being murdered.
Weβre spending $1B a day to wage an illegal war which has resulted in the deaths of 6 US soldiers & injuries to countless others.
And where is Trump?
Golfing.
The NYPD has confirmed that an improvised explosive device - that could have caused serious injury or death - was ignited and deployed outside the home of NY mayor Zohran Mamdani BY A FAR-RIGHT WHITE NATIONALIST during their racist/nazi rally yesterday that was organized by Jake Lang.
Replacing one corrupt incompetent with another is not really a win. Nor is transferring her to yet another made up department that will allow her vindictive nature to thrive and permit her to continue to miss-spend a ton of taxpayer funds, instead of removing her completely.
Kristi Noem has done a stunning amount of damage and itβs good sheβs gone.
But this doesnβt change the fact that we need a complete overhaul of DHS, impartial investigations into the killings of two American citizens, and information on children that were taken from Minnesota.
Great, more opportunities to get that bumble-fuck in front of a gaggle of reporters and watch as he butchers the English language with his fabulously poor grammar skills. He should be the poster boy for education reform in Oklahoma.
And she's out, not even an hour later.
Trump is presenting Mullin's appointment as automatic, but he still has to go through Senate confirmation hearings like everyone else. They're usually deferential to their colleagues, but I think this guy for this post in this election year might prompt issues
BREAKING: Trump has FIRED DHS Secretary Kristi Noem and has tapped Senator Markwayne Mullin to fill the role effective March 31!
Do not let Brett Kavanaugh's increasingly reactionary politics distract you from the simpler fact that Brett Kavanaugh is a dullard and a shitty writer whose colleagues all (albeit for different reasons) very obviously have nothing but contempt for him
Trump: "I better use some Tic Tacs just in case I start kissing her. You know I'm automatically attracted to beautiful... I just start kissing them. It's like a magnet. Just kiss. I don't even wait. And when you're a star they let you do it. You can do anything."
Trump suddenly believes in consent.
The Supreme Courtβs decision is good news for everyone. Trumpβs tariffs are a tax on everyday Arizonans. Everyone felt the burden β ranchers, farmers, small businesses, and families. Todayβs low GDP numbers make it clear: We canβt afford trade policies that hold our economy back.
Trumpβs tariff taxes are hurting Main Street, allowing small businesses to become victims of predatory lenders. Instead of offering help, Trumpβs @SBAgov is throwing small businesses to the wolves by preventing refinance options through SBA.

Shove it in a couch, dude
My biggest takeaway from todayβs SCOTUS ruling is that Donald Trump was mentioned over one million times in the Epstein files, yet somehow no one is holding him accountable.
