Gifts to Supreme Court justices shouldn’t just be “disclosed.” They should be banned, outright. This should not be a radical position.

On the one hand, scaring elementary schools kids with an AR-15 is frickin’ insane. On the other hand, scaring elementary schools kids with an AR-15 is frickin’ insane. Those are the both sides.

Tonight on @wbaltv11: A man with an AR-15 has been showing up for weeks to a school bus drop off for local elementary school students. Parents say their kids are afraid, the man says he’s protesting @GovWesMoore’s new gun control law. You’ll hear from both sides at 5+6pm.

US national debt = $30.9 trillion Trump's share = $7.8 trillion More than 25% of the ENTIRE national debt in the history of America was run up by Donald Trump, with a GOP-led Congress agreeing to it. Now they want YOU to pay for it by cutting Social Security and Medicare.

Even in Germany, Hitler, Nazis, and the Holocaust are so shameful that when you take a deep breath and visit Dachau there isn't a "gift shop" or even anywhere to buy food (at least not when I was there), because they don't want to "commemorate" the atrocities in any positive way.

Ben Shapiro defends Harlan Crow's Hitler artifacts and dictator statues: "I mean, that seems like a reason you might own this stuff is to remember the things that you hate"

Responding with “thoughts and prayers” in the face of perpetual gun violence while we do nothing to prevent it only reveals that we are not actually thinking or praying. Authentic thinking and praying never leads to apathy in the face of injustice. It is spiritualizing apathy.

Sending good vibes to Alvin Bragg, Fani Willis, Jack Smith, and their teams. Leading investigations and making charging decisions is challenging work in the best of times. Trump has made these times the worst. The easy choice is to back down. Stay strong. nytimes.com/2023/03/20/nyr…

Things we STILL don't know about January 6: - Who planted the pipe bombs? - Who disabled Pence’s key card? - Who removed the panic buttons? - Who shared the location of the non-reinforced windows?


Yet another example of how profit motive impacts real people. Shame on @anthemBCBS

I don’t need AI to replace the typing and emails and legal work. I need AI to replace the cleaning and cooking and other household tasks. So basically I need a Rosey from the Jettsons. Which one of you nerds is working on that.

Name the extremists running the Democratic Party. Hint: they don’t exist.

.@GovCox says we need to marginalize the extremists in both parties who are ruining our country. Show up. Speak up. “If you don’t, they will.” #utpol #utaheo
