Tear gassing random residential streets is just absolutely psychotic behavior.

A pkg of Nathan’s hot dogs was $13 in a Kroger market yesterday. I didn’t foresee hot dogs being a luxury item.

There’s no bottom to my sadness and anger. Other countries do not treat mass shootings as de rigueur. I desperately miss feeling safe in grocery stores and movie theaters.

Third party funds must be deposited in the U.S. Treasury and appropriated by Congress and apart from that I believe service members aren’t allowed to accept outside compensation so

Trump: "By the way, a friend of mine called us the other day and he said 'I'd like to contribute any shortfall you have because of the Democrat shutdown. I'd like to contribute any shortfall you have with the military.' Today, he sent us a check for $130 million. It's gonna go the military."

The Saudis invested $2 billion in his family’s crypto biz, World Liberty Financial. World Liberty Financial then deposited that $2 billion into Binance, the pardoned guy’s crypto biz. Thus, a pardon for the head of Binance. Naturally.

WOW: The White House says the president's MAIN PRIORITY is his BALLROOM. SNAP is ending. Subsidies for health care are gong to double and in some instances quadruple plan premiums. The government is shut down. The cost of living is through the roof. And his priority is his ballroom.

NBC News finds that:
-- ICE has shortened its training from 13 weeks to six.
-- Nearly half of recruits couldn’t pass an open-book written exam.

I have a proposal for Speaker Johnson, but manners and good taste prevent me from posting it here.

Happy to chip in for transportation costs. I wonder if @rexthetvterrier.org has suggestions. They do amazingly admirable work!

In the audience tonight is Charlotte Bennett, one of the 13 women that Andrew Cuomo is credibly alleged to have sexually harassed while they worked in his government.

She can't speak for herself because Cuomo's lawyers have hounded her.

So I confronted him.

Not a basketball court or a bowling alley.

Republicans sound ridiculous making that comparison.

This isn’t an “upgrade” to the White House, it’s a monument to himself. Trump has no intention of ever leaving — he’s building his own palace and tearing down the entire East Wing to make it happen.
