What We Know About Trump’s TikTok Deal—As Reports Suggest Oracle Could Take...
Vice President JD Vance told reporters Friday there will “almost certainly” be some kind of agreement before Trump’s block on the TikTok ban expires April 5.
Not possible. The GOP would never support an infrastructure project.
TMF? If that refers to his orangeness…I beg to differ. There is a BIG bottom there, literally and figuratively.

The justice department says that Rasha Alawieh, a kidney specialist working in Rhode Island who was deported to Lebanon despite having a US visa, had “sympathetic” photos and videos of Hezbollah leaders on her phone, according to Politico.
Alawieh’s deportation raised concerns because a judge had required 48 hours’ notice before being sent out of the country, and because she was detained despite having a valid visa and a job in the United States. Her lawyers have alleged that Customs and Border Protection ignored that order, and Massachusetts federal judge Leo Sorokin is expected to consider the matter this morning.
Michael D. Higgins Independent The 2025 Irish presidential election must take place by Monday, 27 October 2025. The incumbent president, Michael D. Higgins, is term limited, having served the maximum two terms permitted under the Constitution of Ireland. He was elected in 2011 with the support of the Labour Party, and in 2018 on his own nomination as an independent.
If he still wants to be the President, he better get to cracking.
Like Krasnov, he’ll go for the win by submission.

A LOT can happen in two weeks. It only takes a few hours for the markets to tank.
I just hope and pray we will be the ones writing history in four years.

Yes, it’s short hand for The Mother F***er.

Yeah he’s a lard-ass, but don’t ever think things can’t get worse with him in charge.
Now, the analytical part of my brain still wants to wait to see if the judges in the two cases I’ve mentioned conclude that these were instances of willful denial of their orders. We may know their answers today, in a matter of hours.
… … … … …
Sure looks like “willful denial” to me.
Well, it’s not like this work was important or anything. Free gifted link:
Firings and buyouts hit the top-secret National Nuclear Security Administration amid a major effort to upgrade America’s nuclear arsenal. Critics say it shows the consequences of heedlessly cutting the federal work force.
Fucking asshole. Want him to just drop dead into a greasy orange pool.
Today’s (depressing) dose of Snyder/Cox Richardson;
This is the true test.
They have political cover for teh “gangs” they spirited away because it’s hard to make gang members sympathetic.
But it they deported this professor for some photos on her phone…we are all in a world of hurt.
I mean he should be removed from office tomorrow if any of the guardrails were even remotely in force instead, this will be the consensus legal opinion of the Republican party by 10 AM [contains quote post or other embedded content]
Georgetown University has an advantage over Columbia. Jesuits.
The interim U.S. attorney for D.C. threatened a hiring freeze on Georgetown Law grads unless the school drops its DEI policies.
Georgetown Law School has pushed back on a demand from the interim U.S. attorney for the District of Columbia, who warned that his office wouldn’t hire graduates from the school if it didn’t scrub its policies and curriculum of diversity and inclusion initiatives.
Interim U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia Ed Martin sent a letter to Georgetown Law—dated February 17 but emailed to the school’s dean on March 3—demanding the school end all DEI efforts or risk a hiring freeze from his office.
In a letter addressed to Martin, William M. Treanor, dean and executive vice president of Georgetown Law, called out the official for making a “threat” against the school and launching an “attack on the University’s mission as a Jesuit and Catholic institution.”
“Your letter informs me that your office will deny our students and graduates government employment opportunities until you, as Interim United States Attorney for the District of Columbia, approve of our curriculum,” Treanor wrote in the letter posted on X, formerly Twitter.
“Given the First Amendment’s protection of a university’s freedom to determine its own curriculum and how to deliver it, the constitutional violation behind this threat is clear, as is the attack on the University’s mission as a Jesuit and Catholic institution,” he continued.
Needless to say, he went on a bit further. But it’s enjoyable to read the rebuke.
When will Trump make our Constitution unconstitutional?
