I feel like Jared Kushner being at the center of the plot that ultimately led to an American journalist being dismembered via bone saw while he was still alive should be a much bigger deal than our billionaire owned news media is making of it.
One of these men is playing a role, the other is showing exactly how much contempt he has for his peers
Has anyone ever had more of a #Backpfeifengesicht (=face asking to be slapped) than this pathetic POS?
Kushner also failed to disclose himself as an agent of a foreign government, having been paid nearly $2 billion in total by foreign leaders. trib.al/iVl4J9l

The president is insane and should be impeached and removed.
Trump sets the stage to interfere in Minnesota's elections: "Let's all get behind Michele Tafoya in Minnesota. She's running a great race. Don't allow them to play with the Votes after the race is over. The Federal Government will be watching closely. The only way she can lose is if they cheat by playing games with the Ballots as they come in. We can't allow that to happen, because I won Minnesota three times, but they didn't give me the Victories, and Minnesota hasn't been 'won' since 1972, when Richard Nixon claimed the trophy. Michele Tafoya has my Complete and Total Endorsement to be the next Senator from the Great State of Minnesota — She will not let you down! President DONALD J. TRUMP"

Three Democratic female candidates for Congress have been hit by cars over the past few days. Peltola, a woman running for Congress in TN, and a woman running for Congress in OH.
I had a dream that I drowned my phone in the swimming pool and was a bit disappointed to find it still working when I woke up
This paper answers why you can't think straight even when you're not touching your phone.
Researchers from UT Austin and UC San Diego published a paper that explains every unfinished task, every reread paragraph, and every afternoon that vanished.
It's called "Brain Drain."
they took 520 people and gave them tests of memory and problem solving.
the only difference was where their phone was.
on the desk, face down. in their pocket or bag. or in another room.
every phone was on silent. no buzzing. no notifications.
And the results are wild.
the people whose phones were in another room did significantly better than the people whose phones sat face down on the desk.
the closer the phone, the worse they scored.
then they ran it again and made half of them turn their phones completely off.
it didn't matter.
off and face down on the desk still drained the brain.
the paper revealed a brutal paradox:
most people said they weren't thinking about their phone at all.
75.9% said its location didn't affect their performance "at all."
they were wrong.
your brain spends energy just to not pick it up. a quiet, constant effort to ignore the most interesting object in the room.
that effort comes from the same tank you use to think.
and the more dependent people were on their phones, the bigger the hit.
you are not distracted because you're weak.
you are distracted because the most powerful attention machine ever built is sitting three inches from your hand.
the fix is almost insultingly simple.
put it in another room.
Ok everyone I found the inspiration for Princess Leia’s look (Virginia Leith in A Kiss Before Dying, 1956)

Where is the Democratic antidote to Project 2025? All the damage done by Trump in the last 2 years. What is the plan to fix it? How do you plan to protect reproductive and voting rights? What are you going to do to make sure billionaires don't control the politicians?
