Swell. Graham is "celebrating" Christmas by preaching at the Pentagon about all those nifty war-and-slaughter stories in the #OldTestament.

If a 15 minute delay means you barely made your flight... you're either highly entitled or doing your air travel wrong.

"Concerns about legality" are words that never apply to the #TrumpRegime. Their mantra is "Who's gonna stop us?"

The #DearLeader cannot get his ego serviced enough. Welcome to the "Trump-Kennedy Center".

Odds that the latter part of the name will be dropped, effectively or legally, over the next 3 years?

In #DonaldTrump 's America, it's not only fun to withhold federal funding on a partisan basis, to attack his perceived political enemies, it is (now according to Administration lawyers) perfectly legal.

#Trump considers himself President of only the part of the country that likes him, such that he can reward their support with taxpayer funds, but withhold such funds from his "opponents," devoid of policy considerations.

Every time you think #Trump can't get more #petty ... he says "Hold my make-up kit."

In this case, annotating the entries on the self-installed #WhiteHouse "Presidential Walk of Fame" with crass and insulting comments under the plaques for Biden, Obama, and Clinton, plus Donald's opinions of Reagan and Carter.

The guy has all the class and maturity of a 13 year old Mean Girl.

Golly-gee, I'm sorry if having a #signlanguage interpreter doesn't fit with the "image" you want to project.

I'm even more sorry that the image *that* projects is of an #entitled, #ableist asshole.

Calling Microsoft's default font #Calibri #woke because it's easier to read is like calling concrete woke because it's easier to walk on.

They're not just awful people, they're buffoons to boot.

#Trump: " #BigMedia practices #viewpointdiscrimination and outrageously #factchecks Americans trying to use their #FirstAmendment Rights."

Also #Trump: "Here's a new official federal government list of fake, subversive, lying, seditious, evil, terrible, treasonous news outlets we don't like."

I haven't found the official announcement that for some odd reason, MLK Birthday and Juneteenth no longer qualify for free national park admission.

No doubt the addition of June 14 to the list that does is because that's Flag Day, not #Trump's birthday. No doubt.

No, actually, he seems like a racist, jingoist, entitled asshole.

Is #Trump willy-nilly giving #pardons to all these high-level federal criminals to curry their favor? To curry the favor of their supporters? Or just to discredit federal prosecutions in general, Biden-era prosecutions specifically, and thus Biden-era prosecutions against *him* most specifically?

Views expressed by others are, well, theirs. I reserve the right to delete them, but it’s usually better to let the marketplace of ideas hold sway, even if some packages are long past their expiry date.

Stuff I link to? Sometimes it’s because I agree with it. Sometimes because I disagree with it, but want to point (mockingly, in some cases) to my sources regardless; I have a liberal arts background; I believe in citations. And linking to stuff is what the Internet is about.
