The presidency as we know it should be burned to the ground, and salt the earth. Congress needs a pretty big overhaul, including on the electoral system. But the Court mostly just needs justices who aren't deranged hacks avowedly hostile to fundamental principles of the republic.

Or better yet: make GenAI about an assault on civics. Because if you are selling a product that necessarily attempts to con one person into believing they are engaging with another person when they are not, you’re not just ruining education. You’re dismantling society’s foundations in social trust.

Another view of the Japanese Garden’s Flat Garden from just now. This to left of the one posted yesterday. Shows gravel, moss islands. At far left, a weeping cherry w/moss framed behind by mugo pines, then azaleas, & then a camellia. Zoom in there & see 4 greens, 4 textures.

Trump, continued: "What the Somalian people have done to Minnesota is not even believable. It’s not even believable. And a lot of it starts with the governor. A lot of it starts with Barack HUSSEIN Obama, because that’s when people started coming in... They want to kiss our country good night."

Survey also reveals Britons’ favourite festive film, views on tear-jerkers and family cinema trips
When Macaulay Culkin recently said he didn’t consider Die Hard to be a Christmas film – wading into one of pop culture’s most heated holiday debates – he was booed by a live audience.

Only Congressional Democratic leadership could convince themselves that impeaching someone who’s literally bragging about committing war crimes is fraught with political risk
“Republicans will never allow articles of impeachment to be brought to the floor of the House of Representatives, and we know that's the case," Jeffries said at a press conference Monday.
