Seth Meyers: "Trump wanted to take the opportunity, about 12 hrs after Rob Reiner was murdered, to go on social media and post his thoughts about it. Trump took the time to accuse Rob of having Trump Derangement Syndrome. There is nothing more deranged than seeing Trump's supporters try to defend what Trump said about Rob Reiner. What a good time this would be to have a leader who has a moral compass."

The man who is the secretary of state told diplomats they must stop using Calibri and return to Times New Roman for all official communications. His predecessor Antony Blinken had switched to Calibri in 2023 because it’s easier to read, especially for those with certain vision disabilities, and because it’s the default font for Microsoft products. https://am-quickie.ghost.io/r/826dbd96

"Hegseth Is Purging Military Leaders With Little Explanation"
The Trump Administration is ideologically purging all branches of government in ways that the USA may never recover from.
This is "End of Empire" behavior.

Amy McGrath: "So now the US Army can’t recognize Tom Hanks, someone who has done more for veterans and portraying the sacrifices of American soldiers than almost anyone in the country, all because he doesn’t align with Trump. What a disgrace."

A quotation from Nicolas Chamfort
Preoccupation with money is the great test of small natures, but only a small test of great ones; there may be a wide gulf between a man who despises money and a genuinely honest man.
[L’intérêt d’argent est la grande épreuve des petits caractères; mais ce n’est encore que la plus petite pour les caractères distingués; et il y a loin de l’homme qui méprise l’argent, à celui qui est véritablement honnête.]Nicolas Chamfort (1741-1794) French writer, epigrammist (b. Nicolas-Sébastien Roch)
Products of Perfected Civilization [Produits de la Civilisation Perfectionée], Part 1 “Maxims and Thoughts [Maximes et Pensées],” ch. 2, ¶ 164 (1795) [tr. Mathers (1926)]Sourcing, notes, other translations: wist.info/chamfort-nicolas/621…

mmpadellan: "Do you guys remember when Pres. Biden revoked Secret Service protection from Don, Eric, and Ivanka? NO? It's because he didn't. Trump, on the other hand, has removed it from Hunter Biden and Ashley Biden, because being President was never about helping the American people. It was just about vengeance." #security #politics #pettiness

A quotation from Judith Martin
Grief often inspires other odd emotions, and pettiness — the jealous assertion of one’s own claims as a mourner — is one of the commonest.

“Miss Manners,” syndicated column (1981-03-29)Sourcing, notes: wist.info/martin-judith/75695/
