This is one of the most disturbing things I have seen Trump do so far. Even if the evidence against these men was overwhelming (and it certainly is not) the idea of "deporting" them to a prison in a country they didn't even come from is beyond the pale.

It was a joke, but nice try Young Sheldon.

It is a really interesting article. Thanks for posting it.

"Seriously wtf tho.. those people living in tornado alley should be required to have a tornado shelter on or under or near their homes. It would save lives."

Maybe, but each year tornados kill 80 people. Meanwhile 12000 die falling down the stairs. So we would be better served eliminating stairs, but if we eliminate stairs how do we get into the tornado shelter?

Yav you such an active imagination. Perhaps you can explain the argument I am trying to make and the meaning I am trying to manipulate from the word because I have absolutely no idea. If all you got is projection, at least explain it to the class.

Is "Top American CEOs" sorta the same thing as "Oligarchs"? Or does it depend on the context?

Curious indeed, maybe they just ran out of toner? Seriously though, why has it taken 3 years for this case to get to trial?

Commercial passenger airlines are authorized to make a total of 864 landings and departures from Reagan National from 6 a.m. to midnight each day, or 48 an hour, according to the airport's website. Of those, 64 have been added by Congress since 2000. Local airport authorities have objected to the increases.
The crowded airspace around Washington drew attention last year when Congress debated an aviation safety bill that allowed 10 more flights a day at Reagan National, despite strong objections from Virginia's Democratic senators, Tim Kaine and Mark Warner.

Let those numbers sink in and imagine how crazy it is in that very confined airspace. It has always been about Members of Congress voting to get themselves home quickly on the weekends.

That might be common sense, but that airport is too crowded to provide that much leeway. It is to busy, too many physical obstructions, and to many restrictions that funnel traffic into confined pathways. . There has been a push to close it for decades, exacercerbated by the Air Florida crash. Meembers of Congress (who enjoy the conveninece) overuled that. I recall when, for a time, airlines were prohbited from scheduling connecting flights via National, or use it as a hub. Congress didnt like that either, because less flights coming through meant less flexibility for their schedules. My family members won't fly into or out of that airport. Too scary.

The article seems to miss the poijt, as if the strategy is to simply ignore Congress's law. Everybody knows what is going on. Quietly, behind the scenes, Trump and the tech bro kings are working out which one will own and profit from the TikTok sale. In the meantime they all kneel at his feet. Well played.

What could go wrong?

Cabinet Secreteries don't get houses. I guess he's starting a new precedent?

Ah Rubenstein ... ..there is the link that ties it together.

Wow, the BS is thick in this thread. It is weird how quickly some create a false narrative without any working knowledge whatsoever.

Colleen Shogun had nothing to do with the investigation against Trump. Many would consider her right wing, judging by her anctions and her associations. I'm very surprised Trump dismissed her. A more curious mystery is why Biden appointed her in the first place.

So he's surprised that the leopard ate his face after voting for the leopard that eats peoples faces.

--- him.

An interesting analogy to use considering You are talking about about Palestine. Palestinians are still trying to get the hang of that lesson.

I am familiar with this location. The Department of Education is a very large building. The main entrance is on Maryland Avenue, whereupon visitors must pass through security, sign in and get a visitors pass. The doors in the video are on C Street, on the rear side on the building.

An "All Access" entrance is what used to be called a "Handicapped Entrance" until the word handicapped fell out of favor and the signage was changed. This would be an additional access point for those with special needs, particularly at older or historical buildings where the main entrance can't be retrofitted to comply with ADA. These locations are often unstaffed and locked, with an intercom to request access.

The Members choice to tug on the doors of a handicapped entrance, en masse, rather than go to the main entrance (generally unlocked, but with a lobby and security checkpoint) seems a bit theatrical and detracts from their message.

#9 it's obvious you've got your chatbot working this thread, or you didn't bother the main article here.

I'm a bit confused. Why are they still there, 4 years after the troop withdrawal? And if they are "families of US Troops", why do they require the United States Refugee Assistance Program to get out?

I had a security clearance. When I left the employ of the Federal Govt, I didn't get to take it with me. I'm not sure why anyone expects to. My Brother in Law has made a good living with his security clearance since he left, working in the private sector on Govt contracts, however, he has been required to reapply and recertify through the company he works for to maintain his clearance, with limitations related to the beneficial work he is performing.

I don't claim to understand how that process works, as I left mine behind, but the expectation that a security clearance somehow belongs to you is --------.

When enormous egos collide ... ... .

"I don't feel there is a need to apologize for a request for mercy. And I don't feel that there is a need to apologize to speak to the unity of this country that includes people that were not at all referenced in the unity that he spoke of the day before in his inaugural address. So, no, I don't feel the need to apologize."

Excellent analysis by Slate. I concur.

Well that didn't last long. I haven't delved too deeply into this, things that pop out at me ...
Why was January 19 chosen as the shut down date, and by whom?
How did Trump turn it back on beFORE he was sworn in?
