Trump’s psychology drives him to tear down his party so he doesn’t fail alone.

You mean the Court that indicted war criminal Putin? More Trump/Russia?

Only every major university teaches climate science, but fossil fuel thugs wanted West Point to stop?
Climate dangers: In the Rockies it’s impossible to miss the grey belts of what were green forest, killed by pine beetles. Wildfire fodder now.
It’s been 25 years since the September 11 attacks, but we will never forget the victims, the families forever changed, and the brave heroes who ran toward danger. I am eternally grateful to the first responders who risked their lives to save others. They are the best of humanity.
This happens with a costume party Cabinet of Idiots.
Hard to plug the “billionaires and big corporations don’t have to pay taxes” hole with buybacks.
Time for an honest tax code.
Nice try, but if you run up huge deficits by exempting big corporations and billionaires from taxes, markets will react.
People collectively worth trillions, and corporations worth tens of trillions, and corrupt Trump, pay virtually no taxes.
Calling out an “idiocracy” at the Pentagon “of corruption, stupidity and sycophancy.” Don’t we deserve better?
Think this is a normal mind? Has he lost it?
Any attention to people’s concerns about corruption and costs?
Even Russia’s submarines benefit from Trump/Russia, yet the press has more or less stopped noticing the rhinoceros in the living room.
American workers are the backbone of our country, driving our economy and pushing us to innovate.
I’ll continue to fight for safe conditions, fair pay, and protections in the workplace.
Happy Labor Day!
Eeeew. Do their positions come with kneepads? Maybe gilded ones?
Trumpsters all have to be uber-macho, until it comes to Putin. Then it’s submission. Too creepy.
One day we’ll know what Trump/Russia was.
Watch this case scissoring with the Florida “fraud on the court” case.
“Fraud on the court” is super-rare; unheard-of for senior government officials.
This case exposing how the crooked scheme was cooked up could nail “fraud on the court.”
The through-line for this billionaire-captured Supreme Court is that its election-related decisions always help Republicans, with the “reasoning” backfilled in to get there.
Admiral Stavridis is too nice to say it, but the problem is a Costume Cabinet of in-over-their-heads incompetents, if not outright crooks.
This was the problem with “goals” and “ambition” rather than actually doing stuff that works.
Now, we’re down to a simple equation: put a price on carbon pollution or fail at climate safety.

Ukraine has MacGyvered the Flamingo in a defense tech surge the U.S. DIB should emulate. The cutting edge of defense tech is in Ukraine. U.S. tech whizzes are investing big $$ there, learning how to innovate around our stultified DIB.
But Trump/Russia is a problem.
Right. Not Trump’s stupid Iran War, stuck in Horm-ooze. Not Trump’s corrupt war on clean energy, jacking electric costs. It’s Ukraine. Who profits from that nonsense? Putin and fossil fuel.
