The thing is we know for a fact that given the choice between universal basic income and hoarding all the wealth for themselves, they'll pick the later every time.

The reports that Trump was kicked out of the situation room for being too erratic are much more remarkable when you consider that for most of the past year the situation room has been a blanket fort in his living room at Mar a Lago.

A photo of Kieron I took as part of some reference for WicDiv years ago, in a park in London, by a bench on some grass. Over the horizon, I added the words IF TRUE so that they appear enormous across the London skyline. This was funny to me when I first made it, and it's still funny to me now, so you're seeing it again.

The question is, who has standing in this case to stop it?

He's running the DoJ as his own personal lawyer, he's running the IRS as his own personal piggy bank.

Probably our only chance is Congress after the midterms.

This video of a Ukrainian Yak-52 crew taking down drones with a shotgun is incredible, but the music is deeply, and profoundly inappropriate. There was really only one option. So I've fixed it.

The fun thing is most of the time he just says things like "war is bad" without even mentioning Trump. The way in which Trump reacts to that is very telling.

Something something bait with a tweet something.
