Sad that we seem willing to wait for others to right our wrongs.
As a country, we fail both the morality and the trustfulness tests.
Yes, this is who we have become.

Eisenhower warned of this in his 1961 Farewell Address:
'...we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the militaryβindustrial complex.
Ironic from a General, GOP no less, but the GOP was an actual political party back then.
I never thought I'd say this but...
sign me up for jury duty.
In a CrackerJack box full of problems, he IS the prize.
I wouldn't go the misogyny angle on this one in any sense.
You're hitching your horse to the wrong post.
Th insurance would likely cover the ships but not the lives of the crew.
Maybe the lack of insurance will cause the companies to decide to stop operations resulting in some lives being saved.
Insurance doesn't stop missiles.
Misled sounds like it was done inadvertently.
Let's be honest. She LIED.
If she was under oath... F..k misled.
and one used (eww) Coast Guard blanket.

Assuming no major additional disasters which are very likely
They totally staged the first. Who knows if there was a second? All we have is their word which we know is trash.
Make up a third? They keep proving they are not the Party of Ideas.
Do a follow-up story a year after it opens to deep dive on:
1) Number of full-time jobs relating to the plant
2) Total wages paid to those in those jobs
3) How much work is being done by AI and automation
4) Itemized tax/financial incentives given to Apple relating to this plant.
Whole story.
Just a NHL exhibition game wrapped in two flags.
I stopped rooting for flags in sports back in the mid-80s. I live in the U.S. and if pushed, would have wanted to see Canada win.
Simply want my country to live up to its promise as a country. F*#k the fake cheering of the flag.
Any refunds to the companies of record MUST be tied to how that money will be funneled to those who purchased the higher priced items from those companies.
Companies should not be able to claim a windfall profit on top of everything else.
At first, I thought that $50K might be this month's grocery bill.
Dow UP. Jobs tanking. Utility bills UP - thank you AI. Food costs UP. Food quality down.
Regulations down means: Corp Profits UP, Health DOWN.
Tell me who is represented and who is left out.
That's your platform DNC. GO!
I asked the librarian if the library had books on paranoia. She whispered, βTheyβre right behind you.β
Don't tell my people
Since he did this without legal authority, why does he need to sign Congress's 'disapproval'.
They should be revoked by the governmental body constitutionally responsible for tariffs. The president has no standing in this.
And while we're at it, lock me up for that typing.
"I have searched the depths of of Legal Arguments NOT YET ARTICULATED..."
WT Actual F does that mean. How can search something that's never been articulated?
Seriously, luck this PoS away already. Then charge the entire gop with fraud for not doing there jobs to end this.
To not vote is essentially a vote - to enable the current regime to continue to do whatever.
The line of demarcation has probably never been so obvious. NO ONE gets to 'sit this one out'. Ever.
If you don't clean your house, the toxicity will kill you. Applies to our government as well.
No remorse, no shame, not a single shred of humanity.
This is the common calling card for the entire regime. Your soul, should you have one, is your cost of admission into this club.
A much more honorable and public service job than working ICE.

And she thinks this excuse makes it all right?
Aside the racism, how damn childish must one be to do this? Particularly the presumed 'leader' of a nation.
No way in hell this chump is making policy decisions. Arrest Stephen Miller NOW for murder and sedition.
HANDS OFF of our Social Security
Step 1: Declare the gop a terrorist organization working for Putin.
If you don't banish Stephen Miller to the gates of hell, the rest of the window dressing won't matter.
I've been alive through Eisenhower.
I am not tired of a Republican led Congress. I am tired of the existence of the current Republican Party.
Blast it to hell.
Of course if dad was a billionaire, he'd just hand out the chocolate bars to his friends and pay for them himself. That's what would happen in real life. trumpworld is a bit more distorted.
BTW: Melania, good luck getting through 3rd grade.
