If allegations were all that is necessary to fire someone, Trump would have been bounced 60 years ago. For Trump to be using allegations as pretext is farcical.

Seriously, if a Democrat tried to leave without a permission slip, what would happen? Arrest? On what charge? And what about equal protection under the law - so it applies to MAGAts too?

In the south of France, construction workers are slowly switching to nights, as days have become unbearable, and consequently, unproductive. Also, trains are being cancelled because the air conditioning is incapable of defeating 50 degrees C. Museums are staying open 90 minutes later as A/C centers.

Republicans have long known their plans are extremely unpopular, and have sought to rig elections as the only way they can automatically return to power. This is nothing new or different. From absurd ALEC model laws to gerrymandering and overturning voter initiative, the fix is in.

When I lived in Russia, briefly, I described it as a third-world country with a first-world ego. I'm beginning to see that this describes MAGA Americans to a T. Every year, they vote to make us more poor, while stoking national pride so that we're too smug to see it happening. 100% Soviet mentality.

The Trump regime is FORCING the Iranians to build a nuclear bomb. It is the ONLY solution that will get the USA and Israel to stop bombing them. They MUST do it to stop being a pincushion. All Trump had to do was leave the working treaty in place. But no. Better no treaty, and bombings. Iran wins.
