I don't know if you have noticed the tilt in your reporting. You are offering many more stories of the administration's misfires, miscues, mistakes than, say, the Doge months when reporting was full of horrible moments and decisions. Yes, those still exist, but it is different to shutter USAID, resulting in a million deaths, than it is to convene a ridiculous Board of Piece resulting in a lot of self dealmaking. It seems as the days go by, the corrupt, arrogant and incompetent moves by the administration and its minions are being revealed. The result of smugness is being booed in Milan. The dim light at the end of this horror is...dim but I can see my hand in front of my face unlike the darkness we have been through. I'm not saying it won't get worse before it gets better, it will, but we have proved we are strong, we are united and we are growing. What have they proved? They are willing to destroy our democracy (and put women back in their place) for a few gold ducats. The Last Supper indeed.

I’m a little confused..is it the normalization of a ‘shadow government’ , same as the shadow docket ? That Mary speaks of the questionable decrees enacted by the questionable cabinet or purportedly the questionable president ie his state of mind you cite?

I do apologize my brain I guess is numbed like the ground ,like so many others -unprecedented chaos,unprecedented weather, unprecedented coverup/illegality?

I suggested succession as viable solution -red states vs blue states while quite convinced an actual kidnapping occurred of executive ,judicial , and legislative ‘official acts’.

The trail -hot examples -awakened a population of their voting the felon (in fact FELONS) in.

I may incorrectly understand ‘a felon can not hold public office’…ah, correct me if I’m wrong.

So eloquent is the information to the public at large -how this all is ..is far better than allowing a shitting criminal/sitting President at large to push law aside , kill people on 5th Ave (or whatever road it happens on), break treaties and and and obviously dissolve world order .

I do wish to applaud my perception of your intent , Katy bare-ing the door -pointedly.

Why do we hesitate -seemingly defenseless ? …because the constitution IS thrown out ! That is (not should) be immediate grounds for impeachment of The Mob Boss and his Gang.

Jack Smith could do it…just sayin’

TY Katy, I do love your underscoring .

All Hands on Board! Let's make this the most watched half-time show in the history of Super Bowls! Thanks, Mary, for your daily rundowns of all the inadequacies evolving minute by minute in our country. We hear you! We are outraged! We are on the front lines either in person, by email, speaking to friends, and writing postcards to officials damning the procedures that are currently in place. May good health be your's along with your worthy words.

I am proud to report that PM Carney was invited to, then disinvited from, the Bored of Peace. He was pointedly unenthusiastic about the price tag, so I guess that tells you what's really important about the sca oops I mean Board.

Of all the variations of a word I never said in front of my mother but have said often (I don't use any religious references when I curse) my favorite is one Mary used today - Abso-fucking-lutely

That's right, it's Super Bowl Sunday, the day America does nothing but watch football (Oh, how I long for the innocent days of Taylor Swift nausea. Those were the best of times!).

I immediately assumed having ice at Super Bowl and Olympics was viewed as a reward for the boys.

Go Seahawks! (Lurie, their owner, has proven to be a good supporter of diversity and other liberal causes. Kraft, no so much - a DJT friend and supporter.)
