@JRMajewski @FBIDirectorKash @PaulZeise spending taxpayer $ to fly there and party is a bad look, but sure in and of itself it’s not that condemnable…until that is, his FBI spokesperson Ben Williamson literally lied and said precisely that he WASN’T doing it. If it was nbd, why lie and cover it up? Idiots.

Personally, I find it fantastic that @FBIDirectorKash or anyone in the Admin would travel to support the USA Hockey Team.
I don’t understand why there’s so much drama

@whited63032 @GuntherEagleman @RightShot328 I was referring to the well-known scandal of Justice Thomas accepting over 50 known luxury vacations and private jet flights from wealthy donors, essentially accepting bribes and peddling influence. His behavior caused the gov’t to adopt stricter Codes of Conduct for justices.

@bbjazziii @GuntherEagleman @RightShot328 So the three that voted against tariffs never take a trip with her family quit being an idiot

🚨BREAKING: Justice Clarence Thomas just UNLEASHED pure FIRE in his dissent on the tariff ruling, dropping TRUTH BOMBS that expose the majority’s BS and defend President Trump’s America First authority like a boss!
He didn’t mince words. He straight-up NAILED it:
“NEITHER the statutory text nor the Constitution provide a basis for ruling against the President.”
BOOM. Read that again. The Constitution and the law ITSELF back Trump—no ifs, ands, or buts.
Thomas keeps swinging:
“Congress authorized the President to ‘regulate . . . importation.’ Throughout American history, the authority to ‘regulate importation’ has been understood to include the authority to impose duties on imports.”
Historical facts don’t care about your feelings, globalists.
He doubles down:
“The meaning of that phrase was beyond doubt by the time that Congress enacted this statute, shortly after President Nixon’s highly publicized duties on imports were UPHELD based on identical language.”
Nixon did it. Courts said YES. Same exact words. Case closed.
Then the kill shot:
“The statute that the President relied on therefore authorized him to impose the duties on imports at issue in these cases.”
Crystal. Clear.

Such an out of touch and also musically uninformed take. Did you see how many ACTUAL musicians were hired and performing real instruments? A string section? A full band of horns? The music was rich harmonically and melodically and beautiful and complex. From a musical standpoint, the TPUSA show was much more simpleton, “dumbed down” music. Bad Bunny uses real, conservatory trained musicians and references numerous classic styles of latin music. Saying nothing about his personal musical contributions, he has the good sense to buoy himself with tons of talented, real musicians

A backstage candid BB3 vs. me knowing someone has a camera…😄📷
I can’t contain my smile aboard @thejazzcruise - @johnpizzarelliofficial was doing some paparazzi 📸 backstage before the annual #singsingsing show and caught my good side (with a photo 💣 from @jsflymommy2 🫶🏻).
I snuck in a group photo on slide #3 from today’s @the_macallan 🥃 tasting event I bravely volunteered to host when @bruceontrumpet was double booked 😉. Great fun! 🤩
We port in San Juan tomorrow - my first time in Puerto Rico 🇵🇷! Send me recs y’all 🙏🏻.

“Sleepless in Seattle” 😴 is one of the best film soundtracks of all-time! This tune was included, and since I’m headed to the PNW myself next week ✈️, I thought why not do it for y’all! 🎙️ #intheweesmallhoursofthemorning
