What's happening in Russia is a warning to us all. No one could tell Putin no and that's how he went into Ukraine dreaming of making Russia great again. Putin underestimated Zelensky and the Ukranian people and he greatly overestimated his own military because the people around him were afraid to bring him the facts.

Dictators eventually cause real trouble for their people. Many don't see it at first because the dictator speaks to their grievances and xenophobia. But it always ends badly.

The one thing Hunter Biden's attackers on the right willfully keep forgetting is that, yes, Hunter Biden has had addiction problems and did things he shouldn't. But when Hunter was a boy he was in a terrible car crash in which he and his brother were badly hurt and his mother and sister were killed.

That's a level of childhood trauma most of us never experience. Joe Biden understands this and will always stand by his son which is what a good father should do.

@JoyfullyDazed But will we get to trial before the election? That's my worry. But then again I had given up hope on an indictment and yet here we are.and he's been indicted twice. Accountability is beginning to arrive!

@MPCavalier Weissman said "If "Trump is elected, he will never leave office. He will seek to have the Constitution changed to permit more than 2 terms. And will claim victory in all new elections"

But seeking to change the constitution is very hard. Two thirds of the State Legislatures would have to say okay and I can't see them doing so. Trump will be a nightmare for country no question. I just don't think a third term is possible. As for Jr I am not even sure Trump would support him.

Andrew Weissman saying that if Trump is reelected he will never leave. I disagree.

Trump wanted badly to be reelected in 2020. But having to run again in 2024 was never in his plans. The Presidency involves work which Trump didn't want to do the first time. He's running in 2024 to stay out of jail. And if he's reelected no similar need will be there in 2028 .

@ucantstop_me I agree. If the debris field means that it was quick and they didn't suffer then that would be for the best because at this point I don't see how the crew members can be rescued in time. This is so sad and a tragedy.

@BoxerDave Agree and at this point it doesn't matter whether Putin has info on Trump or Trump is infatuated with Putin. Either way Trump is eager to do Putin's bidding. He is a Russian asset and should Trump be reelected we are going to see his devotion to Putin on steroids.

The GOP hope is that if Trump is reelected he will have a few guard rails. Many of his supporters hope that too.

They don't grasp what it will mean to Trump that he doesn't have to face the voters again and that in his second term he will appoint complete men who will never tell him no on anything.

Sex and The City began in 1998 and it's still going strong. Maybe I'm missing something but I never saw my story reflected on Sex and the City or in the lives of any of these four women.

I lived in NYC for most of my life and like most New Yorkers I was never able to afford a Manhattan apartment and never will be.

New York Magazine, as I remember it is also very Manhatran centric. I love NYC but Manhattan is for the very wealthy and that might be a more accurate title for the series.

@heyrhiannon I am glad you posted. This is a tragedy and most people are hoping the crew trapped in the sub will be rescued. I think we are all hoping for a miracle and those that aren't really need to look at themselves and change

@heyrhiannon Agree 💯.

@praet0rian Agree, the big worry is that once Biden wins the Dem nomination, RFKJr will run as a third party candidate I am even more worried about Manchin in that regard as well.

@AskTheDevil True and that's why he should have been fired and was.

Robert Jarvis a Southeastern University law professor, said there is no question Peterson deserved firing but prosecuting him “seems like such an overreach” AP

I agree. Scott Peterson was the first officer to arrive at Marjorie Stoneman Douglas HS. He heard rapid gunfire inside. He did not yet have back up as I understand. He waited outside.

You can't charge a person with a felony because they weren't a hero. It sets a very bad precedent.

@TheComicHunter Very good!

@TheComicHunter That's what I was thinking.

"Xi tells Blinken in high-stakes meeting: World needs stable U.S.-China relations" - CNBC

I don't recall US/China relations being this bad during the Obama years. So in my opinion a key factor in our worsening relationship has been Trump He seems to have had it in for China from the start of his 2016 campaign.

Trump also came into office with a desire to worsen relations with our NATO allies. Why would a US Pres seek to worsen relations with China and NATO?

@Avalea Why wouldn't I wear panty hose and pearls if we were back in the 50's? Those two items have nothing to do with weight. But wearing shorts to a job interview or around the office is another story. Fetterman is not being asked all that much in wearing a suit.

@Ellis564 Agree. Putin never got over the breakup of the Soviet Union and if he had faced no resistance in Ukraine I'm thinking eventually, the Baltic countries and possibly Poland etc would have been next.

@Gladari I think Zelensky came as a shock to MAGAs. He is a reminder of what true bravery and leadership looks like and how no one can predict it ahead of time. Trumpers fell for the bragging and bullying of Putin confusing that with courage.
