What is the difference between the request: “I hope I will make the right decision” and “I hope the decision that I will make is good for me and others”?

One is a humble prayer that recognizes the interdependence of all things, the other is an expectation that leads to blame and disappointment.

finally, the T-word

please, do go on

Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson criticizes Supreme Court emergency rulings During a public forum, Jackson and conservative Justice Brett M. Kavanaugh offered differing views of President Trump’s wins before the high court.

“What is happening now is the administration is making new policy, but then insisting that the new policy take effect immediately before a challenge about its lawfulness is determined,” Jackson said. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

The bottom line is Trump sacrificed 8 American lives (& counting) and more than 1,000 Iranian lives (& counting) for nothing. He hurt the US & global economies, destabilized the Middle East, & will pull out with the same Iranian regime in power. There's no silver lining.

A senseless, criminal waste

Schrödinger's war

Do I have this right? Trump will not go to Congress for war authorization… But he will go to Putin for war authorization!

NBC’s Richard Engel: “The White House meme campaign is outraging many former US military commanders… they say only someone who has never really seen combat would think it’s a joke and put out material like this.”

The enemy gets a vote. Iran is now delivering pain to Trump via multiple paths
(1) Gulf Kings
(2) Financial meltdown
(3) AI tech oligarchs
(4) Fuel, fertilizer, food disruptions

This Hormuz choke to cause financial meltdown was the strategic calculation on Iran's part:
Pain delivery to get Trump and Netanyahu to a negotiated settlement.
Bloomberg: "Global markets have lost $6 trillion since the war began. Stagflation Trades Sweep Markets as Trump Signals Widening War"

GOP lifting sanctions to help Russia sell their oil while they are helping Iran target Americans, seems more National Security concerning than a private e-mail server.

✔️ Fact Check: TRUE

S＆P 500 down.
Dow tanking.
NASDAQ bleeding.
Gas up 60¢ in ONE week.
92,000 jobs gone.
This isn’t bad luck — this is the direct result of reckless, chaotic leadership. Your wallet is paying the price.

how about just straight up to name it “Department of War Crimes” because that’s what T&H have to say to justify breaching protocols under Geneva Conventions at ICC proceedings

is the idea of a game plan

Trump's Middle East strategy is more likely to result in regime change in America than in Iran.

Trump administration says it can't comply with order to start tariff refunds A trade court this week had ordered the government to begin reimbursing importers who paid for tariffs.

Beijing circa. 2018?

normal caveats about wealth measures vs GSP aside, we should not be surprised that the elite impunity political environment has been good economically for the people on top, and that all of this is not solely about getting to say slurs during business hours

Netanyahu Calls Iran Strikes Necessary To Prevent War He Just Started

Netanyahu Calls Iran Strikes Necessary To Prevent War He Just Started

Let’s all call Massie today and get him to switch parties. Then force Gonzalez to resign. Then get the gavel, issue some subpoenas, and impeach some motherfuckers

Contrary to Trump's repeated lie, his tariffs are NOT paid by other countries. The New York Federal Reserve has confirmed that 90% of the economic burden of his tariffs has fallen on US companies and consumers. Trump is not only a pathological liar but economically illiterate too. What a surprise 🙄

Look, now that we're trying for real consequences for the Epstein files, maybe we should also take another look at the Panama Papers

Newsom: He’s a weak president — and that weakness is now on display globally. The only card he had left was these tariffs.

His entire economic policy has been mass deportations — and that’s beginning to unravel. His broader economic policies have obviously been aided and embedded in these tariffs
