In this instance, I’m operationally defining “soul” as “viscous goo scooped from a shower drain which somehow animates their corpora.”

Wait, what? As much as I dislike working in an office, “FBI Director” seems like a job that needs to be in person, in D.C.

Run things from Las Vegas?
Hey, what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas, right? rriiiiiiight?
Why is everyone so worked up?
It’s not like Las Vegas has any historic connections with organized crime or anything illegal. Pffff.

I checked Trump Golf Track, and something must be up. He hasn’t hit the links in 10 days. That is unusual for him.

George Packer, staff writer at The Atlantic and the author Last Best Hope: America in Crisis and Renewal (Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 2021), offers analysis of what he calls President Trump’s “might makes right” strategy, and the decimation of the United States’ soft power through the destruction of USAID.

i will never understand how the media manages never to ask fine politicians like lindsey graham, how the hell they can ‘about face’ (“pull a 180”) in so little time. “Senator, what you just said is the absolute contradiction of what you said [looks at watch] six hours ago – how can you be so @#$@!!!n two faced!!?” ok, i can’t ever expect that latter subordinate clause sigh

I suspect it’s partly cowardice, and also of course the fear of losing access, and thus one’s job. I’m glad I’ve never felt a need to choose between keeping either my integrity or my job.

Or Fingerspitzengefühl.
Anecdotally, if anyone knew this particular word and used it in a proper context, then Henry Kissinger would assume they were fluent in German.

He’s moved on to more important things.
Major League Baseball didn’t have the courage or decency to put the late, great, Pete Rose, also known as “Charlie Hustle,” into the Baseball Hall of fame. Now he is dead, will never experience the thrill of being selected, even though he was a FAR BETTER PLAYER than most of those who made it, and can only be named posthumously. WHAT A SHAME! Anyway, over the next few weeks I will be signing a complete PARDON of Pete Rose, who shouldn’t have been gambling on baseball, but only bet on HIS TEAM WINNING. He never betted against himself, or the other team. He had the most hits, by far, in baseball history, and won more games than anyone in sports history. Baseball, which is dying all over the place, should get off its fat, lazy ass, and elect Pete Rose, even though far too late, into the Baseball Hall of Fame!

Distract them from doing their real job (so they can’t, and so what is being done by others is harder to see) and make them waste money that could be spent on their actual mission, leaving less available to deliver that.
Of course he told them to do it anyway.
