    About the only novels I can still remember reading for school were The Catcher in the Rye, The Great Gatsby, and... Jayne Eyre? Not totally sure about that last one. Oh, and Silent Spring, although might have read that one on my own. Not really sure anymore. Damn I'm getting old.

    He's obviously trying to distract the media and change the coverage away from the whole Signalgate debacle. That said, if he were to make it through the 4 years without turning the country into a complete post-apocalyptic hellscape, I fully expect he'll try and find a way to remain in power. He only floats this stuff now to get it out there and make it seem not so out of the question. Sadly it's not. If there's even a teeny tiny little bit of legal wiggleroom of doubt about what the law says, it's probably more than enough sadly for the Supremely bought-off Court jesters -- I mean -- justices, to come up with some crazy interpretation of the law that gives them an excuse to rule in his favor and allow it. Even more so if he ever gets to make another pick for it.

    I wish just for once one of these reporters would hit them back with a "so I'm gonna take that as a rather than tell an obvious lie I'm gonna just pathetically attack you for doing your job in order to avoid answering the question altogether, because if I said what I really thought I'd get paddled by the dumbasses in charge."

    He admitted he backed the wrong guy, but despite that he's got some twisted logic that he still needs to follow through on being Flamingo's bitch cuz it's somehow worse to change sides, even though that's the perfectly logical thing to do when realizing you backed the wrong one, or something like that.

    And the touching reunion is ruined by some thoughtless words. Pow! And Bellamy... maybe Doflamingo will think of you fondly when you're gone? Seriously?! Why's he still worried about what that psychopath thinks of him? Sucks that Luffy can't just clobber him because he's worried about putting him six feet under if he were to do so.

    "This really is some grade-A bull-crap if you ask me." Ussop says what we're all thinking.

    His Luffy-ness. LOL Bartolo's serious now. Nothing like an nspirational flashback to help you come up with a new powered up attack.

    His hair is poisonous? What does that have to do with the rupture power? Who has poisonous needles for hair? Wouldn't that poison you, too?

    He needs a lullaby. Sing to him Robin. Yeah right. Don't remember much singing in One Piece other than by Brook.

    U.S. officials went door-to-door in Greenland to find anyone who wanted to be visited by the Vances. They found no one. Oh I don't know. I''m sure this guy would love to meet them.

    Never honestly even heard of this before, but this got me intrigued so found a video that kind of summarizes in a hilarious way the first movie. It's massively spoilerish, but after watching it I'm totally sold on seeing this now.

    They must be getting pretty nervous about some of these upcoming special elections to fill vacant house seats that were previously thought to be runaway slam dunks for them. Ought to be an interesting April Fool's election day. With how insane the news has been lately, gonna be next to impossible to tell what people are joking about from reality when it comes to politics.

    Democrats flip deep-red Pennsylvania district in special election shocker Appeals court won’t lift Boasberg’s order blocking Alien Enemies Act So much winning.

    Waltz’s future in doubt following accidental war plan leak “Half of them saying he’s never going to survive or shouldn’t survive,” said the official, who like others was granted anonymity to discuss internal deliberation. And two high-level White House aides have floated the idea that Waltz should resign in order to prevent the president from being put in a “bad position.” “It was reckless not to check who was on the thread. It was reckless to be having that conversation on Signal. You can’t have recklessness as the national security adviser,” the official said. A person close to the White House was even more blunt: “Everyone in the White House can agree on one thing: Mike Waltz is a fucking idiot.” LOL Seems like the vultures are circling a bit. Waltz is being defiant though still, going around attacking Goldberg on TV, following Vance's lead it looks like, suggesting that "somehow this guy" got on somebody's contact and got "sucked into this group." Uh huh. Yeah sure. Doesn't sound like he's taking any kind of real responsibility to me. What's that old saying: the coverup is often worse than the crime.

    Ahhh, okay I think I understand now. I was puzzled by the including him on purpose part, but I see what she meant. That someone else on the call wanted to leak what was taking place and added the reporter to do it. Thing is we know exactly who it was that added him. Mike Waltz. So I mean, really hard to believe he'd do that cuz if anybody's gonna take the heat for this it's him. Pretty ineffective way of letting someone else be the whipping boy. Guess nothing's that unbelievable at this point though.

    I really doubt that he was in any way in on this if that's what you're saying. I'm not really sure what you're suggesting exactly. I'm a little confused by what you're trying to say there honestly. I will say I've wondered if they're claiming none of this was classified why he doesn't just release those parts then and prove them wrong, but I think it's partially his journalistic integrity of not wanting to do what he already said he wouldn't go doing. Also, regardless of what they claim it could still hurt national security and he could probably still get in legal trouble if he were to divulge stuff like that. Another thing is that there was a CIA operative's name supposedly shared on the chat. Releasing something like that would definitely impact that person's safety and career, so I get why he's choosing to sit on some stuff.

    Seems everyone in the administration is predictably claiming this was perfectly "lawful" and that the chat "did not include classified information". Typical deny, deny, deny strategy. Trump's saying that an "oopsie" was made and that a lesson was actually learned somewhere in all this is so far the only significant admission on anyone's part I've seen that anything at all wrong happened here. Truly... pathetic. As usual, seems he's the only one stepping out of tune with the rest of the "it was a perfect call" choir. On a more serious note, thing that should really worry everyone about this is the fact that they're not even acknowledging there was a problem with any of this means we have every reason to believe they're just gonna keep on doing it, just without including any reporters in the chats -- probably -- in the future. Heaven forbid we ever actually do go to war with China, cuz chances are they'll probably know every move we're about to make before we make it. I was thinking about adding or Russia to that, but who are we kidding thinking that could ever happen with Agent Krasnov running the show.

    50% Personally I'd say I'm nothing like him, but the idea of his that adults often become really phony as they conform to society and end up losing sight of the things that really matter was the one part of the book that really stuck with me I'd say.

    The Trump Administration Accidentally Texted Me Its War Plans Top 4 takeaways from Trump Cabinet's explosive leak of Yemen war plans The incompetence it just never ends. Funny to see Vance spoke out against going through with the operation, but only because of he felt it would be helping out Europe, which he loathes apparently.

    I'll say. Holy crap, if you hadn't said something I totally would have thought that was real. Person who made that must be a frickin' genius.

    That wasn't looking good there for a second. Nice quick-thinking, Robin. Gonna have to find a way to put Hakuba to sleep fast though cuz they still got Gladius to deal with.
