  1. I think the Republicans see it more of an opportunity to get media to focus on the supposed threat, rather than talk about their cuts to Medicaid, or Trump's corruption - it gets them off the front page
  2. I'll only believe that when he convinces all of his followers to drink the Kool-Aid (including himself)
  3. Seems likely that it's a minority government - which will take a long time to explain how that works to Trump voters in rural diners
  4. It's important to recognize that no one is coming to 'save' America from this administration (and it's important to recognize that it's not just Trump, but the entire administration). Congress won't save America, nor the Senate, nor the Courts. Even those that hope for the mid-term election result will likely be disappointed - with a corrupt administration that has access to ALL of American's personal data, do you think that there will be free and fair mid-term elections? Again, it's up to each person to figure out what are their personal 'red lines', and what they will do when those lines are crossed. With the tech bros on the side of the administration, don't expect to see widespread coverage of protests in your social media feeds, or in the mainstream media - they want you to think that you're alone, or think that you're a small minority.
  5. At a party given by a billionaire on Shelter Island, the late Kurt Vonnegut informs his pal, the author Joseph Heller, that their host, a hedge fund manager, had made more money in a single day than Heller had earned from his wildly popular novel Catch 22 over its whole history. Heller responds, “Yes, but I have something he will never have . . . Enough.”
  6. Tigers will have a special promotion for those sitting in Sections 104 and 105: "Bring your glove to the park, because you just might be playing Right Field for the team today"
  7. I'd suggest repeated emails / phone calls to your Congress Critters / Senators asking when hearings are going to start
  8. https://www.axios.com/local/salt-lake-city/2025/03/17/navajo-code-talkers-trump-dei-military-websites-wwii Exclusive: Navajo Code Talkers disappear from military websites after Trump DEI order
  9. Now try to transpose that feeling of dread or anxiety to people who originate from countries where internal / external violence looms on a near-daily basis
  10. Guessing it's an issue about controlling natural resources and places that will have the longest 'runway' when it comes to the effects of changing climate - even if it is a Chinese hoax.
  11. Three guesses who signed the USMCA deal - first two don't count You can probably guess the hype that was raised at the time it was signed
  12. "Somehow, in the war between Russia and Ukraine, the first country to surrender was America" Tristan Snell
