It’s not surprising, when you stop to think that Bharara’s office was investigating money-laundering and making good progress with it before he was fired when he refused to shut it down (sound familiar?).

Pardoning himself *might* be the straw that breaks Congress’ back. With their Obamacare repeal increasingly looking like a failure, Trump pardoning himself can quickly become an albatross around their necks. Then you start thinking about the next election, and Republicans may need to eject Trump in order to conserve…

He can pardon people (himself?) for federal crimes. If he committed state felonies in New York or Florida those Attorneys General could prosecute his ass into a state prison. Would he rather go to Leavenworth or Sing Sing?

I think it’s a handshake reader? To see how hard he can squeeze things? That doesn’t explain why he’s pounding down on it, though it does explain why he’s so peacock pleased he beat the other score.

Journalism was never about ethics, and always about money. Reporting this stuff is entertainment. I would never expect the press to not report a story that would sell. This press tour, whether you think of it as disgraceful or funny (or, like me, both), it is certainly entertaining, and thus will sell.

This disgraceful show by all involved is an embarrassment to the quiet dignity and grace with which boxing has always carried itself. Don King must be spinning in his grave.

I’ve been filling holes on beaches for years my man.

People pay to have sex with beach police?

GOD, I LOVE A BEACH HOLE!
We went on a beach vacation with another family and the other husband and I would spend the better part of the morning digging a hole with our kids. We’d make various holes and connect them with trenches and build sand walls around them, to protect from the waves.
The crazy thing is by the end…

Hole-digging is outlawed at my beach because of a couple of kids who tried connecting two holes and died. They literally have beach police who will come around who will stop you if your hole gets to any decent size and they will fill in your hole.

I think he has some form of dementia. If you compare interviews he’s done in the past his vocabulary was larger and there was way less word soup. There is something physically wrong with him. It doesn’t excuse his attitude toward women.

C’mon how can they NOT make fun of Trumplethinskin’s Time cover?

All they have to do is switch to a video-only product. Deliver DVDs of the latest Tom Friedman commentary instead of print newspapers and voila, problem solved. Hey, everybody’s doing it!

This is great, Diana. And I couldn’t agree more about newspapers trimming the fat in all the wrong places.

just when you thought it was ok to trust grown men who believe in magic

The response by the company - talk to the employees and tell why unions are not the way to go.. is an old anti-union tactic that is still sold/presented to corporations by anti-union companies that sell their wares to HR departments all across corp america. It’s the oldest in the book. Tell why you’re so great and…

It’s a little early for people to be cutting onions in this fucking office.

I’ve done Murph a couple times (no vest), and I think my best time ever was around 55 minutes. For comparison, I can run a mile in 5:30, two miles at 13:00 without feeling particularly winded, rock climb regularly at V4s pushing to V5s, and oh yeah, I played in the fucking NFL.

No one cares about college rowing but like Donald Trump Jr., I rowed in college. (He was on the team at Penn for 1 year.) The standard by which rowers are judged is 2000 meters on the Concept 2 ergometer. The slowest guy on our team went 6:48. He was 5'10", 171lbs and iron deficient. Still, that score is butt. Donald…
