Story of many many Americans lives.. the medical stuff shouldn’t be political But somehow that has become Toxic too????
Whitehouse: "Today I think is a sad and embarrassing day for this committee as it looks like on a party-line vote we are going to advance out of this committee probably the most discreditable person ever to seek the office of attorney general. Let's start with the Epstein files ... "
I’ll bet you a hot cup of coffee that Todd Blanche’s assurance that the slush fund is off the table will turn out to be utter bullshit. We will see it in some other form and convicted felons will be paid. Watch.
Two senators on their way out the door. Nothing left to lose. Total leverage. And they traded it for a memo. A piece of paper. Cornyn and Tillis folded like lawn chairs, and everybody knew they would. Again.
11 years ago today, Ken Paxton surrendered at the Collin County Jail on felony securities fraud charges. This is his mugshot.
Lots of immature Northern Cardinals in the woods behind my house recently. A juvenile flies a short distance, then the mother follows it - they do that over and over. I guess she's giving them flying lessons. #Birds #nature #photography #Cardinal #NorthernCardinal

"History will remember this day— when an American President and Vice President abandoned all we stand for."
Well, that was a pretty wishy washy string of euphemisms from Macron just now.

USAID is a criminal organization,” Mr. Musk wrote on Sunday in a social media post that many aid workers saw as confirmation the agency would soon be absorbed into the State Department and that some viewed as a potential threat to their personal safety. “Time for it to die.” THIS HAS TO STOP.

The US imports $86 B (or 44% of total food imports) from Mexico and Canada, on which 25% tariff's will be imposed TOMORROW. Mexico imports 90% of avocados, 35% of orange juice and much more. Do the math S&P loses 1.5% so far on the news. tinyurl.com/jsz86yvt #tariffs #food #inflation

Black morph Red Fox - 7/7/19, 4:32 a.m. on the Dalton Highway, north of the Arctic Circle. It didn't get completely dark that night, but 4:32 a.m. was like dusk, so it's a little grainy if you look too close, but COOL animal, huh?? #photography #RedFox #Nature #DaltonHwy #Fairbanks #Alaska #mammals

Photobombed by a caribou. I was trying to get a shot of a golden eagle (through a car window), and an attention-craving caribou managed to crash the party. I never did get a decent photo of the eagle. #birds #mammals #Denali #Alaska #caribou #GoldenEagle #photography #photobomb
It’s amazing to me that politicians don’t commit to post first on @bsky.app and to engage with constituents here THIS is more powerful than CNN , MSNBC, The Post will ever be. You can broadcast for 9 mins on a declining medium, or engage here and start a real discussion. Which is more powerful?
