While it seems to drag at times, life is really moving at warp speed. Surviving Vietnam convinced me that time was precious, so I only dropped into the mainstream when I ran out of money to enjoy my time.

I can't understand why they want a base there and are willing to invest the money to build it when the next admin can throw them out. Seems they either believe their won't ever be a hostile admin or they have more money to waste than Elon.

In 1888 the voters had had their fill of the oligarchy and elected a Congress and President committed to limiting the power of the wealthy. SCOTUS for the next 20 years tried to limit the impact of the Sherman Anti-trust Act. It's time for the voters to act again.

The Legislative Donnybrook Behind Trust-Busting

Could member of Congress really have intended the Sherman Antitrust Act to do what it said?

trump is going to have to find a way to keep all the unemployed and AI replacement victims busy. We're entering the bread and circus phase of the GOP.

Can't ignore the fact that trump says he will withdraw the assistance if Milei is not re-elected. trump is playing king maker in Argentina so my question is which American oligarch is benefitting.

The lesson dems need to take from it is when they get control again it will be time to rein in SCOTUS, Tax the rich and ignore republican noise.

The economy lives on locking young people into debt and keeping them there for their entire working lives. I expect trump to revise BK laws for individuals with a return to debtor prisons for those unable to pay debts.

The FAFO stage of trumpism is arriving earlier than republican politicians thought. Even if Dems win majorities in 26 the damage cannot be easily undone.

It will last until trump imposes the insurrection act and installs the military in big cities around the country. Even places like Houston will get some guards.

To get an idea of what side they'll be on: As part of its deal with Dominion, Liberty officials asked Dominion to settle defamation lawsuits against Trump allies who attacked the company over the 2020 election results.

It's also not new. It has been such since the founding. The wealthy are our royalty, they don't have titles but they have power and freedom from accountability.
