Dispatches from the fever swamp
This is a sinister plot cooked up by people who understand how things work better than Trump but are no less deranged in their paranoia and anti-democracy leanings. Unlike Trump, they get that personnel IS policy. Like Trump, they are paranoid weirdos. /1 https://t.co/j76jSfdoHT

Can we move to Greenland?
“Can we move to Greenland?”
Covering his bets on climate change, regardless of his rhetoric, you might find that Trump has quietly made large real estate purchases there. Also in Patagonia.
Shaub’s first and third tweet were fine, but that second tweet is odd. I’ll admit to not being familiar with this OGE event that apparently all good Americans have thoroughly studied:
<blockquote Ginny Thomas came to an OGE conference in 2001 with the facile message that perception is not reality, reality is reality. Her words were nonsensical, but her message was clear: ethics gets in the way.
But “perception is not reality, reality is reality” doesn’t seem facile or nonsensical to me, and it doesn’t seem to send the “clear” message that “ethics gets in the way”. Also, her name is spelled “Ginni”.
You know what the Deepest part of the State is in America?
The Constitution.
“Officials to oust….”
Nixon had his enemies list. Maybe we’ll see Trump’s list soon.
I can’t find the quote online, which I think might have been from Katherine Graham. Whoever….
“To be on Nixon’s list is to stand with the Founding Fathers and the Constitution.”
Trump may have a copy of that document somewhere towards the bottom of his pile of girlie mags, but I doubt it. Too hard to read. For a toddler.
