Why is it that this national ID topic only comes up when republicans feel they are in peril? Republicans have had plenty of time in the past, when in power, to assuage their fears of vampant (unproven) voter fraud.

The constitution is clear that each state holds its own election with STATE power.

If the federal government should do anything it should be to ensure that we have one common secure voting system and process with enough polling places, staff and ballots. Give people plenty of time. Make it easier not harder.

Pass the law but give states, and people, a year or more to get re-registered. Don't shove it down throats. Pass the law and make it hard to undo.

States need to have time to process all of the birth certificate requests and many people who want to vote need to have time to prove it. Women who've married and changed their name are one important example.

We are all for showing ID. We are not for suppressing eligible voters.

@RandPaul @SecScottBessent Bullshit and you fucking know it.

Trump has pardoned over 70 people convicted of fraud. 100s of billions in fines wiped out. Meaning they get to keep the money they defrauded.

Dr. Jonathan Reiner: "The president has severe daytime somnolence. He falls asleep very often. He's fallen asleep in the Oval Office on multiple occasions with people talking to him in the cabinet room, and I was concerned yesterday that he might have fallen asleep at Arlington National Cemetery during Memorial Day observances. Chronic insomnia is a severe illness. It can result in an increase in risk of dementia, decrease in cognitive effects in older people."

Just one day after ending "The Late Show" on CBS, Stephen Colbert returned to TV — to host a public access show with rocker Jack White in Monroe, Michigan.

Appearances by Jeff Daniels, Eminem and Steve Buscemi.

@thejefflutz That UAE pipeline will support less than 20% of the oil currently blocked by Iran and that volume won't be fully running for 18 months from now.

How will the other blocked oil make it to market?

I might not agree but I recognize that point of view. I recall several South Africans and Germans with similar stance.

Have you ever asked yourself why the countries are corrupt lol?

Your theory is that SHITTY COUNTRIES are just randomly shitty, and the shittiness has NOTHING to do with the PEOPLE in these countries.

That's a very steep hypothesis.

The odds you are completely wrong about this are roughly 100%, for obvious reasons. This is not an ideological experiment we can afford. In the end you will apologize, but then it's too late.

You assume, against all instincts, evidence and common sense, that you can replace Swedes with Somalis with no negative effects.

What if you are wrong?

When you figure it finally out, it will be too late, you you will have destroyed the world's most valuable civilizations.

What I don't understand about leftist thinking is NOT that they disagree, or have a weird interpretation of the world - that can happen.

The crazy thing is that you guy are willing to be our lives, our civilization and the future of your own families on an utterly crazy hypothesis (that all people are interchangeable, and that PEOPLE have zero impact on a society).

That's a pretty insane assumption, but betting our future on it is even more insane.

@Microinteracti1 @nicksortor @TrentTelenko Not to mention... name one country in the world, other than Iran, that wants Iran to have a nuclear weapon. We are not the worlds policeman.

So why do we take it upon ourselves to stop Iran?

Any excuse you find floating in the wind.

🇨🇳 China just switched on the world's largest offshore solar farm

2.3 million solar panels. 2,934 steel platforms. 11,736 piles driven into the ocean floor. Built to survive force-11 gales and sea ice.

It sits 5 miles off the coast and powers 2.67 million people.

Oh, and they're also farming fish underneath it 😳

[Mike Levin @MikeLevin]

The President of the United States bought and sold tens of millions of dollars of Microsoft and Amazon stock. He told the public months late. His punishment? A $200 fine.

Two hundred dollars.

For the third time this year.

That is a rounding error on a parking ticket for a man trading more in a single transaction than most American families will earn in a lifetime.

The STOCK Act, passed in 2012 to bring sunlight to government finances, has become a joke. The fine is so small it functions as a subscription fee for breaking the law.

And the disclosure window itself misses the point. By the time the public learns what was bought or sold, the trade is done. The information advantage is already cashed in. A fine after the fact does nothing to stop insider knowledge from being converted into private wealth.

There is only one fix. A COMPLETE BAN on individual stock trading by the President, the Vice President, every member of the Cabinet, and every member of Congress. Blind trusts or mutual funds only.

Public service should not be a portfolio strategy.

The people writing our laws, regulating our companies, and negotiating with foreign governments should not be picking winners and losers in markets they themselves move.

[Anthony Scaramucci @Scaramucci]

Trump is not Xi, he's not Putin, he's not Stalin.

He doesn't have the patience, the energy, or the organizational discipline to build a true infrastructure of authoritarianism.

And he's up against a system that's worked for 250 years and isn't going down without a fight.

So here's my prediction: by the end of 2028 he becomes largely irrelevant.

-He'll make billions of $$$.
-He'll pardon himself.
-He'll pardon the family, pardon everyone in his orbit who's been doing the insider trading, the meme coins, the crypto nonsense, the corruption.

The one scenario that changes everything is if he dies in office.

God forbid — I'm not wishing that on anyone.

But if Vance takes over and eventually gets ousted, the family is in serious trouble.

You can't hide multi-billion dollar corruption without a sitting president to issue the pardons.

That's the whole architecture of the exit strategy and I think he's thought about it more carefully than people realize.

[Think Win Win @patrickmadden]

@Scaramucci Donald Trump will get his son nominated to run in 2028, will do everything he can to rig the election because he will be the VP candidate on the ticket.

And after Don Jr. wins he will abdicate and the Orange Menace will continue.
