One thing that genuinely does mystify me, with no snark: Trump is one of the least masculine, least adult people in public life. Needy, whiny, defensive, pleading, scared of women & terrified of more powerful men.

I’m at a loss about why Trump’s base sees him as manly or strong.

Gladys Mae West obituary: mathematician who pioneered GPS technology She made key contributions to US cold-war science despite facing huge barriers as a Black woman.

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientistβ€”because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition.

Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...

We bought 2 of those at Costco. Probably won't get that many kids but didn't want to run short.

This may explain why there’s an aggressive response to people who merely post Kirk’s own words. It threatens the existence of the alternate Kirk - the motivational speaker that had been marketed to young kids and white Christian groups through selective quotation & clips.

Kash Patel’s DOJ Scrubbed Study Showing Right-Wing Violent Attacks Outpace All Other Extremism As MAGA world rages about left-wing violence, the government appears to have removed a research paper showing contrary evidence.

β€œMilitant, nationalistic, white supremacist violent extremism has increased in the United States. In fact, the number of far-right attacks continues to outpace all other types of terrorism and domestic violent extremism.”

The Trump DOJ scrubbed this study from their website.

We used to go Florida when we lived in Georgia, but we haven't been there since we moved back to NY 20 years ago.

All but Honolulu. Lived in or near 3 and many, many road trips ever since I was about 10.

Been there many times. Did work with my husband on some of the historic buildings there and know many of the park staff stationed there. Devastating.

Everything Trump's advisers say officially should be seen through the prism of this important quote from national security lawyer Brad Moss on our pod.

A Karonline Leavitt tweet I've corrected. Xes mark my deleting with a red line. *marks my additions, in red text.

In ONE week, President Trump:

XπŸ‡¬πŸ‡§ Reached Trade Deal with UKX *Gave Bentleys an advantage over Ford*
XπŸ‡¨πŸ‡³Negotiated Trade Deal with ChinaX *Confessed emergency was fake*
Xβ˜‘οΈSecured Ceasefire with HouthisX *Conceded, but got a used plane*
βœ…Secured Ceasefire between India & Pakistan *(that lasted hours)*
πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΈFreed American Hostage Edan Alexander from Gaza 
πŸ’ŠSigned XHistoricX EO to XSlash Drug PricesX *to try to replicate drug deals Joe Biden already won*

A historic President delivering historic results. There is much more work to do β€” and the best is YET to come! πŸ’ͺ

We like to stop for lunch in cemeteries when we are on the road and then go for a walk. Besides, I love the view in your photo.

We've done that too...and I also have hundreds of photos from small towns that look like this.

While we assume anyone with a flag on their vehicle is maga, we purposely fly one at our house. Not going to let them take our flag.
The locals who drive by know we're not maga because we had Harris signs all fall and always have dem signs.
