I think that I got this title right...
Kudos to the University of Notre Dame for turning down a bowl after being left out of the BCS playoffs. They have been ranked ahead of Miami for the last month, then the committee turns around and gives Miami the last spot.

The arbitrariness of Trump's pardon, if applied here, would steal all of the thunder that Patel would be able to claim for solving the crime that Republicans have obsessed over.
So Bondi and Kash make a big deal out of arresting the J6 pipe bomber then the guy confesses that he is a Trump supporter who thought the 2020 election was stolen and his lawyer is arguing that Trump’s broadly-worded J6 blanket pardon applies to him and he should go free. Poetry.

Trump's DOJ is handed another loss from the Letitia James Grand Jury. Bondi will no doubt request another legal spanking and refile.

Breaking News: Grand jury declines to indict Letitia James. Another blow to Trump's incompetent DOJ.

Whereas it’s a good development that a suspect has been arrested, given the lack of legitimacy of people like Bondi & Patel, if any of the evidence in this case would reflect poorly on Donald Trump, is there any way in hell they would share it with the public?
We'll see at today's press conference.

In the mid 1950s, the US conducted "Operation Wetback"; the rounding up and mass deportation of illegal immigrants.

The same immigrants that were welcomed during WWII and the Korean war to backfill the labor shortage.

It was created and run by Retired Gen Joseph May Swing, head of the INS.

I’ve been in a room with Putin. He calls Ukrainians “Russians with accents.” His real fear isn’t NATO expansion, it’s democracy expansion. It shatters his entire argument for dictatorship at home. Because if Ukrainians embrace freedom, Russians may demand the same.

If Trump's rating get much lower, look for him to stage another assassination attempt.

Funny thing about donald trump.

The demented, immoral and corrupt criminal president.

The only empathy that donald trump is capable of feeling is criminal empathy.

And it shows #USDemocracy
