The whole governing philosophy of the United States right now is "try and stop us." Turns out not many people can do that, because the level of malfeasance completely overwhelms the enforcement mechanisms, which are rooted in a presumption of good faith, a presumption which turns out to be wrong.
Right, and he'll release his Healthcare plan in a few weeks.

Good news!
Regardless of the disgraceful nonsense we will likely hear from this administration in the coming days on vaccine “recommendations,” Americas healthcare insurers issued a joint statement tonight saying coverage for Covid and flu shots will remain unchanged from prior years.

Speaks for itself.
There's no logic to MAGA's hypocrisy and double standards. Stop trying to understand it. It's a Mad Hatter Tea Party.
I said this exact thing to my husband this morning. It's the Mad Hatter Tea Party. Absurd, illogical, and defiant. We have to stop trying to understand it. They have no moral principles.
Republicans can't win elections legitimately, based on good ideas and policy.

(4/4) This story is told in Walter Isaacson's Leonardo Da Vinci (2017) #LeonardoDaVinci #WalterIsaacson
(3/4) He also told the Duke that he hadn't yet found a model for the face of Judas, and perhaps he would use the prior's face as inspiration. The Duke laughed and thought that would be a splendid idea. From then on, the prior left Da Vinci alone to paint The Last Supper. #LeonardoDaVinci
(2/4) Leonardo defended himself to the Duke. He said creating art is as much a mental task as a physical task. Painting a mural of this scale in this room with this light requires genius thinking and planning. He had to get perspective and emotions and actions of the characters just right. #DaVinci
(1/4) The Duke of Milan hired Leonardo Da Vinci to paint a mural in a church dining hall. The prior of the church complained about Da Vinci's lack of work ethic. Some days, he painted all day. Other days, he just sat and stared at the painting. Some days, he didn't show up at all. #LeonardoDaVinci

Sen. Lisa Murkowski, our world-class equivocator, is in no small part responsible for the deliberate destruction of the country’s public health system. Her vote for Kennedy was utterly irresponsible and will literally kill people. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/27/h...

Yes! I purchased the seeds last minute after swearing that I'm only going to grow the tried and true easy potatoes, garlic, and kale. I've been disappointed too many times.
Same! And we seem to need the refrigerator, sink, toaster, stove, and microwave at the same time. I call it the cooking dance when we intuitively step around each other and occasionally bump.

Who is getting rich as a result of Trump's immigration policy? He doesn't do anything without a payoff. Justice should not be a for-profit business. #FollowTheMoney

Challenge: post your last photo taken in DC to show what a hell-hole it is.
It seems as if he's setting up for something big & readying to quash resistance & protest. He's still stewing about BLM because he's petulant.
