This actually is broadly true. There is a large contingent of tankers headed to the US gulf coast to load.

The kids these days will hardly believe it, but a mere two years ago, the mental & physical (lack of) acuity of Elderly Presidents was the Great Issue of Our Time. Someone should tell Jake Tapper & Alex Thompson, so they can write a book on it.

Rereading this article, something that I still can never wrap my head around is the Why. I don’t underhand why do this to someone.
Is the burden of ruining some 21yr old staffer’s psyche (put aside the, if/when it becomes public, your own career) worth a shitty blowjob in a parking lot?

The letter fragment I've seen from Swalwell's attorney threatening defamation bears several things that, in my experience in this area, makes me immediately suspicious of Swalwell and his attorney and reflect meritless thuggery.

It's all such a dystopic Rawls story, really
The whole *idea* of society as a fair system of social cooperation has broken down. No one believes in it anymore, no one thinks that "do your fair share and get your fair share in return" is a thing. All is scams.

I think people would like it if someone could present a positive future for work because I don’t think everyone becomes a nurse or a cop is really going to work out.

A good friend of mine works at NASA, and has spent the last TEN years of his life working on the Orion CPAS (Capsule Parachute Assembly System), testing it in the deserts of Arizona.
Ten years of design & testing. For this moment.
Science is so good, y'all.

Again, at some point, this becomes an existential crisis for the intelligence community. Their job is to deliver correct and actionable information to the president. If they are instead told to write politically motivated slop, what is their purpose?

summing up the last week of insane social media posts, bizarre outbursts, inexplicable decisions and total confusion makes me think trump's hit a new low point in terms of his overall decline, and that white house aides and the cabinet are increasingly scrambling to cover it

Biden’s preemptive pardons were to protect people from a promised perversion of justice. Trump’s promised preemptive pardons are to shield people from the actual administration of justice. If you compare the two you’re running interference for the latter.
