Mike Waltz invited The Atlantic journalist to the signal group chat, which means he probably had his phone number saved in his contacts. There’s no way Trump trusted Waltz after that, and probably thought Waltz was not loyal, going behind his back talking to journalists, which was the death knell for Waltz. As long as Hegseth proves and maintains his loyalty to Trump, he can keep fucking up. Loyalty is more important to Trump than competence.
I feel like this is Trump trying to stretch the interview so he doesn’t have to talk about the economy for long. This part was painful to watch, and Terry Moran did try to get past arguing, but classic Trump got everyone talking about how he thinks the characters M S 1 3 are tattooed on his hands, rather than having a conversation about how crazy things are that just the fact you have tattoos will get you deported.
Wow, that’s very impressive. Almost a 45 degree tilt?
Imagine the headline next week when he goes back and needs to be rescued a third time.
Haha thanks, fixed the typo. I had a whiskey drink before I typed that.
Turns out firing workers, but having to continue to contractually to pay them, does not save money, and… surprise, loses productivity.
He was also not out and about and minding his business, he was already in the courthouse in front of the judge. There was no danger to the public because he was at the courthouse. If anything, ICE created the danger by chasing him out of the courthouse and escalating the situation.

Last week’s arrest marked at least the third time in recent months that federal immigration agents have come to the courthouse with arrest warrants. In March and early April, two people were arrested by ICE officials in the hallways of the courthouse.
Following the earlier arrests at the courthouse, county officials and stakeholders expressed concerns about the impact ICE’s presence has on immigrants’ accessing the justice system and other services at the courthouse.
“The last thing we want is to interfere with the legal process or sow doubt in those summoned to the courthouse about whether or not they will receive fair, impartial justice,” Milwaukee County Executive David Crowley said at the time.

I know you’re not defending the administration, but I wouldn’t consider the administration’s position to have any merit. They sent him to the prison and are paying for him to be imprisoned there. Giving them an inch of credibility on technicalities just means they’ll continue to do what they’re doing.
Unfortunately for Kilmar Abrego Garcia, he is from El Salvador and in 2019, an immigration judge granted him withholding of removal status due to the danger he faced from gang violence if he returned to El Salvador.
I say let him return to Washington and isolate him in the oval office. Let’s test this theory.
John Marshall defined the supreme court for ~200 years. The history books will have a footnote about how John Roberts’ court ended the supremacy of the court.
If he didn’t fuck over the economy, they’d still be on board. If there’s any silver lining, it’s that he’s incompetent and has surrounded himself with incompetent people. Republican congressmen and senators don’t care about the human right abuses, they care about their portfolios, which is why they have doubts now.
Google is really damned if they do, damned if they don’t here. Third party cookies are very privacy invasive, but replacing it with Chrome watching everything you do and acting as an ad broker is also not great. As long as Google is providing targeted advertising (which you could opt out of in privacy sandbox) then there’s not a really great solution.
I do think they dragged this along enough that all sites now operate properly with third party cookies disabled, so that’s a benefit at least.
Ohh hmm maybe that’s why it was wife and his brother/lawyer, so they can’t testify against him?
The thing I don’t get is why did he send it to a group chat with his wife and brother? Was it an accident when he meant to share it to the Houthi PC Small Group, or was he testing out the formatting? I don’t really understand what they’d even do with that information?
This assumes as a tenant you have physical access to the boiler room. From the video, it seems like this person might have that access, but not everyone might.
Probably Wilson Fisk or Lex Luthor, although on second thought, they may be too competent for this administration.
Yes, i didn’t mean to imply Trump is smart here, he is of course incredibly dumb. I think though that is how this works out for him, he says an incredibly dumb thing which people fixate on, and that gets the headlines. The horrible things he’s doing are then in articles below the fold, and he gets away with it.
