Bad policy, bad character make bad politics: erratic tariffs, impulsive Iran war, blanket pardons, apparent corruption, weaponized justice, ICE brutality, mountainous deficits, hiding Epstein, abandoning allies and coddling enemies. Hoping for a course correction, for the country and for my party.

GOP Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick says if Elon Musk ordered the slowdown of Starlink in Ukraine, "that is likely a violation of the law."
"We've gotta investigate...We've got to call the witnesses, got to bring them in, put them under oath, and get to the bottom of it. Because this is this is a very, very serious matter. It cannot be glossed over."
Strip away the names and political parties.
A billionaire wants a pardon. His family arranges a $50 million contract for a senior DOJ adviser. Weeks later, he gets pardoned.

Somebody should invent an app that asks “Did you actually read the article?” before letting you argue about it.
People will read 200 reviews before buying a $60 air fryer and then defend every decision a politician makes because there’s an R or D next to their name.
Three children were killed at a park in Ukraine’s Kharkiv region on Monday, local officials say.
