Please don't overreact to Roberts Court decision on the contemplated USPS ballot moves

They simply held that the injunction came too early in the process, before there was a final rule👇

Now we HAVE a final rule & we will litigate it. I'm as confident in our arguments here as in any of our cases!

This guy never served. He faked an injury to avoid the draft. None of his children have served.
He called those who did serve their country "suckers and losers."
He skipped the centenary memorial for servicemen who died in WWI because it was drizzling.
This is more than usually repellent.

“Don’t trust guys with Nazi tattoos” is a simple non-ideological stance that will never steer you wrong. If there’s a false positive I haven’t seen one and I’ve been distrusting guys with Nazi tattoos for over thirty years

I don’t think a country should be run by people where you can’t tell if they’re dead or dying or missing or mentally incompetent to stand trial. I think those should be easy “no” answers

Well, you can now see why *someone* might want Ivana Trump to permanently keep quiet.
Oh.👀

Beatrice Keul, 55, a former beauty queen, says she believes Ivana Trump acted as a "madam"-style figure in Epstein's social world, on par with Ghislaine Maxwell.

"Was Maxwell a madam or an enabler? However you would describe her, Ivana was the same."
