When Einstein developed general relativity the closest thing to a practical application that could even be imagined at the time was a slightly more precise description of where to look for the planet Mercury in the sky, and yet now we’d all be literally lost without it.
Anyway: fund basic research.
Hope isn’t blind optimism — it arises in the face of uncertainty. If you look at our history, we’ve gone through some rough patches. But we tend to come out on the other side of them stronger than before.

It's more accurate to say it is protect *mediocre* men.
Imagine two bell curves for generak athletic performance, one for men and one for women, and set the peak for women a bit behind men (doesn't matter how far for this exercise.)
It's the men that fall into that overlap that bitch the loudest.

No law enforcement officer operating in Connecticut—federal, state, or local—can wear a mask on duty. ICE and CBP agents have to show their faces and badges. And when an officer assaults someone recording them, commits false imprisonment, false arrest, or malicious prosecution, they lose immunity.
Maggie Haberman just said it out loud: tRump is “over the war” — the one HE started with Iran. “The president would like to just be done with this.”
tRump starts pointless wars on a whim, then gets bored and wants to quit. Global chaos is just a distraction.

Dying in office because you insisted on clinging to power until the very end instead of letting a new generation of leaders rise should be seen for the shameful, egomaniacal act that it is.
DAMN, SON!

The Clintons have testified
The Trumps refuse to. Only .6% of the Epstein files have been released and most of it's redacted. Blanche is also bribing the surviving Epstein partner. Who brings a female child rapist a puppy in jail?
Donald and Melania must testify.
Jürgen Nauditt 🇩🇪🇺🇦 @jurgen_nauditt · 3h Trump, the biggest failed strategist in US history, has plunged America into a strategic catastrophe. During his self-proclaimed “victory parade” against Iran, he squandered at least 45% of the US's precision-guided missile arsenal in just seven weeks—including half of all THAAD missiles and nearly 50% of Patriot interceptor missiles. This isn't some fake news blog reporting this, but CNN, citing a CSIS analysis and internal Pentagon data. The result? An “imminent risk” of munitions depletion should a real conflict erupt in the coming years—for example, with China. Trump has ruined the US defense capability for years to come. And for what? For nothing. No regime change in Iran. No destroyed nuclear program. No strategic breakthrough. Just a shaky ceasefire that gives the mullahs time to rearm while America stands naked. Trump, the great “Art of the Deal” master, has once again only produced hot air – and in doing so, burned through the most expensive and scarce weapons in the USA like a pubescent boy with fireworks.
This seems bad.
And I'm pretty sure our enemies are paying attention.
The Trump administration wants stories about the Epstein files to fade into the background — but COURIER is making sure they stay front and center. COURIER's latest newsletter, The Cover-Up, rounds up everything you need to know about the files this week. bit.ly/42lWZQ4
