Mark Carney gave the best speech at Davos by far. He understands the situation with clarity while others prevaricate, appease, and send late-night “Dear Donald” texts or call him “daddy.”

If I were Judge Xinis, I would order the government to produce, in her courtroom, officials who were in a position to answer her questions and to do so under oath.
Letting DOJ continue to prevaricate and deflect responsibility in written submissions seems ... insufficient at this point.

Etymology of the day: ‘prevaricate’, meaning to act in an ambiguous or evasive way to conceal the truth or to avoid committing oneself, is from the Latin ‘praevaricari’, meaning to ‘walk crookedly’.

Federal court lays into DOJ:
"This claim is either an effort to prevaricate or is deeply disingenuous. ... preposterous on its face."

What if the White House ballroom is a metaphor for Iran, tariffs, fiscal policy & the Fed.
Bulldoze a treasured national institution before making plans. Hide the rubble. Unveil a grandiose and self-aggrandizing vision. Prevaricate. Squirrel! Dither. Discover it was unconstitutional all along

This has been the Supreme Court in a nutshell: where clear and immediate harm has been done by Trump to others, they delay and prevaricate, siding with Trump. Even if later deemed to be illegal, the damage is already done and Trump gets his way.
Indeed it was illegal. But we can thank SCOTUS for making full relief impossible.

Nope, don't prevaricate. Answer the questions. We're going to keep on asking.

Of course he's going to lie and prevaricate if asked, but just putting the question out there would raise the profile of the brazen illegality of it all.

Blaise Larmee has been a creep for a decade plus at this point, and has never at any point done anything but evade, deny, prevaricate.

They ALWAYS lie. They lie, prevaricate and "enhance" every, single thing. No agreements. No treaties. No "investments". NOTHING.

Who are the role models for America’s youth supposed to be? In former times we could look up to our elected representatives. No longer. Now, they lie, cheat, belittle and threaten others, and prevaricate. And they still get reelected.

They don't answer. They just prevaricate. Their preambles are the only way to get the truth on record.
