@KurtSchlichter The scandal is that Stanford was endowed from the beginning to be tuition free. They just started charging when they realized they could. However their endowment is big enough to continue as a free university.

Elon isn't stealing from me. Illegal aliens and welfare grifters are

[Mr. Star Spangled MAGA @4thOfJuly365]

I know how Elon Musk became a trillionaire, but I don't know how Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren, and Nancy Pelosi became millionaires.

@GrecianFormula Talk to us 10 years from now to see if the thing is actually floating yet.

@johnkonrad This is the biggest argument against term limits. If you limit the political terms, the staffers have even more power than they do now.

[Jack Daly @realMAGAmartyr]

That’s an appropriate question. I suppose it behooves me to publish content on a website and start doing media interviews.

One challenge is summarizing and translating esoteric subject matter so that it will be vendable to an audience of citizens beyond those already familiar with electoral politics, party politics including candidate recruitment and draft efforts, direct mail fundraising, digital fundraising, FEC disclaimers, political law, First Amendment jurisprudence, Fifth Amendment jurisprudence, and political history.

Another challenge is the DOJ’s penchant for publishing misstatements of fact and law. People would be shocked and mortified if they knew the ease with which unscrupulous FBI agents and prosecutors can misuse filings, and especially a press release, to defame any citizen, especially a target, defendant, or convict.

I have a grave warning to the hapless souls who ever find themselves in the sights of the DOJ’s character assassins. If you are ever coerced to plead guilty to anything whatsoever (e.g., jaywalking to avoid indictment for homicide), the government can then publish a press release claiming quite literally anything it pleases.

It can misstate your crime of conviction and contradict the judge’s findings. Heck, if DOJ claimed you pled guilty to being a serial killer or a child molester, you would STILL have no private right of action, literally no redress whatsoever, to obtain a correction. In essence, DOJ has a license to lie with impunity and immunity.

@RealJamesWoods It’s the republican surrender caucus

@epaleezeldin Not to mention their idiotic ban on gas pipelines that prevent CT and MA from using natural gas.

@willchamberlain According to Obama care, a fee is not a tax

[rickwood @rickwood]

@GovRonDeSantis That’s great, but maybe they should also be charged for scamming policy holders and not paying the claims they were contracted to cover.

USAA is a crap company.

@carolineccurtis It’s a mistake to attribute one persons statements to an entire group. Isn’t that what you are arguing for yourself?

@chad_mizelle @julie_kelly2 Seems like a job a Supreme Court would take on. But if they aren’t interested…

@ladybug1776 This is the way

@KurtSchlichter Is it because the schools in California don’t teach counting any longer? Or do they just teach longer counting.

[Jonathan Parnell @jonathanparnell]

The city of Saint Paul has officially determined the January 18 invasion of our church and the desecration of our worship to be a “peaceful protest.”

Here’s my question for Mayor Her:

[Jonathan Parnell @jonathanparnell]

According to the city attorney’s logic, it is perfectly fine for agitators to invade a mosque, a cathedral, or a temple, shout in people’s faces, terrorize their children, and shut down their religious gathering.

Just call it a “protest.”

That is the kind of city Kaohly Her and Irene Kao want.

[Michael Trujillo @mikehtrujillo]

If the LA Mayor race is close I’d advise the Pratt campaign and any other candidate to PULL the CURE file from the county registrar TODAY. And I assume it’s easy for Pratt to just start curing Republican ballots knowing his ROI is decent. Any other candidate will have to do age and geographical targets on the Dems they cure because a Chatsworth Democrat isn’t the same as a Silver Lake one for example. Yup, I’d be CURING today, and if it ends up not being necessary no big deal.

@carolineccurtis But it’s dinner with an inquisition.

@alexthechick @B30_603 It’s the old drivers who are confused. They often get turned around and work against traffic. You have to be on your toes. It’s the quick and the dead down here

@Navymum18 @C_3C_3 Rule #1 as a leader, you don’t hold a vote unless you know you have enough votes for it to pass. If you want it to fail, you hold the vote.
