Just once I'd like to hear a TV news anchor say, "Sir, that's not true, and if you keep insisting it is, we're going to end this interview to protect our viewers from further disinformation. And we won't invite you back."
HASSETT: Gas prices dropped below $2 a gallon in a lot of places
CORDES: Gas prices on average are still at $3 a galloon

The most precious commodity you have is your attention. You don’t have to waste it on poor-faith debates or arguments with strangers if you don’t think they’ll be productive. You can prioritize the things that matter to you and make your life richer.

The initial strike was illegal as the US isn’t at war with Venezuela and Congress has not sanctioned it.
The so called ‘Double Tap’ and Hegseth allegedly saying ‘kill them all’ is clearly a war crime or murder.
To take no quarter and kill survivors who posed no threat is evil and must be punished.

All this talk of Trump and Hegseth commiting war crimes by bombing boats and declaring kill them all seems overblown, its not like they systematically bombed every hospital in Venezuela by saying that drug dealers were hiding out underneath them, that would be a crazy war crime to ignore.

I hated my Grandma's #Thanksgiving spinach side dish.
She'd put a block of frozen spinach in a pan & boil the shit out of it. Then she'd plop the slimy-stinky-black goo on my plate & say

Yeah, I'm tired of some people (I'm looking at you Jonathan Karl) excusing Trump's verbal attacks on elected officials & JOURNALISTS. He was just on Jen Paski & said that "We've seen this before from Trump"
SO? This should be grounds for impeachment, yet again!

Legal advisors to witnesses know how to phrase things so if they are questioned under oath they won't get busted for perjury.
"I don't recall." is a classic.

To be very clear, Virginia Giuffre was made to say she mistakenly identified Alan Dershowitz as one of the people who sexually abused her. Here is the proof from this week's Epstein files dropped by the House Oversight Committee.
