If you're asking whether I think Obama should've sought approval from Congress before bombing Lybia then the answer is yes I think he absolutely should've.

I think the average American's appetite for a war of revenge under Bush was a lot higher than one of prevenge under Trump. Especially when two weeks in we're at the "everyone has to sacrifice other than the billionaires getting richer off this" phase.

I had been sounding the alarm at work for weeks and nobody listened until this happened. Then everyone was asking, "why didn't anyone say anything??"

A few months later I got laid off.

America needs to stop giving TV talking heads difficult jobs they are not qualified to do.

This crisis is metastasizing. We are a joke.

Half of the things they *brag about* are worse than Watergate. Things they actually *want us to know about*.

β€œWe will have more kayaks for an evening game than we ever had aside from Barry's milestone home runs," Edlund said. "We're not used to having this many people for night games, and we're not used to having one company take over the cove with all the same colors. It's exciting for us."

Just wait until they start using Ai to figure out what you should do with all the free time Ai has given you.

I love Florsheim bc they're ridiculously comfortable but they do run very big. Most brands I'm around a 10Β½ but for Florsheim I'm usually a 9.

None of that matters though because this shit's hilarious.

Courtiers wearing shoes that don't fit because Trump insisted he knew their sizes -- I don't think even Stalin could have come up with it.

Billions of dollars spent on the War in Iran, but we don’t have enough money for the things that help Americans here at home?

Health care.
Food stamps.
Housing.
Tariff relief.

Lot of things we could do with billions of dollars.

What is DEI?

I don't remember.

Do you understand DEI?

Of course I understand it.

So what is it?

I don't remember.

There's also the fact that Rowling has been fairly explicit that the money she earns through Harry Potter she's putting into anti-trans lobbying efforts.

There's a difference, IMHO, between an artist with a shitty private life, and an artist using their money to fund regressive social change.

This puts me at 10 people released. I filed my 1st habeas petition 29 days ago. I am an incredibly small-time, nobody lawyer who knew nothing about immigration law the day I submitted that case. I barely know any more today. I had never sued the federal government and now I've beaten them 10 times.

The Live Nation settlement thing is a total mess. Counsel for DOJ didn't know there was a settlement in court this morning!

What's going on is that the antitrust division, which has been decapitated, is trying to do its job while MAGA lobbyists like Mike Davis go over its head to make deals with Bondi's office.
