It seems Ron's boarding the Trump Train.
With what level of POTUS electoral success looming? Cruz was also almost bounced in '18 by revengeful tumps.
This is Jared Bernstein, the man who sets economic policy for the Biden administration. Asked why the US government borrows money if it can print its own money: "I can't really... I don't get it. I don't know what they're talking about."

Yeah. Really not that awful under the hood. Pretty much the same operationally as win10. They mainly changed the grill - Crappy win10 graphics made even worse... and of course, destroying the hated start bar that they have been trying to get rid of since XP.
I am a start freak. In my personal boxen, everything I need is there in the panels. I seldom go digging through the menu. Everything else I do is CLI, so I still have a cmd box open all the time...
In win11 I only operate by CLI. You may as well not have the graphic interface.
And the other 5 star bitch is the security in BIOS. Several things you have to shut off for Linux to work, and turn back on for windows to work. I finally abandoned Win11 and went back to Win10 on dual-boot machines, and all of them are older boxes so that Win10 will run on em.
I currently have *NO* Win11 boxen in my herd.
NY vs. Trump: Bragg's own witness, Hope Hicks, implodes case against Trump
Fox News, May 4, 2024, Gregg Jarrett
In an epic miscalculation that backfired spectacularly, prosecutors in the Manhattan hush money trial of Donald Trump called Hope Hicks to the witness stand. The moment cross-examination began, their misbegotten case against the former president began to collapse.
Hicks, who served as press secretary during the 2016 presidential campaign, explained that Trump’s motive for suppressing salacious stories was to protect his wife, Melania. "Absolutely…I don’t think he wanted anyone in his family to be hurt or embarrassed about anything on the campaign. He wanted them to be proud of him."
The account by Hicks demolishes District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s primary claim against Trump that he paid porn star Stormy Daniels for her silence with the intent to benefit his campaign and, thereby, influence the election by "unlawful means." To the contrary, it nicely corroborates the findings of a federal investigation that no crimes were committed, or campaign finance laws broken because there was another purpose for the non-disclosure agreement that Daniels signed.
Like the prosecution witnesses before her, Hicks disparaged Bragg’s planned star witness, Michael Cohen, Trump’s one-time personal lawyer. "He used to like to call himself Mr. Fix-It, but it was only because he first broke it." Ouch! But that denigrating remark is tame compared to the other derisive comments that have been leveled thus far at the insufferable Cohen.
[...]
Hicks confirmed that Trump was aware that Cohen paid off Daniels to end what can fairly be described as aggressive blackmail demands. When the election drew near, Daniels ratcheted up her greedy scheme to profit from Trump by threatening to go public about a supposed affair, which he denied. Not incidentally, she renounced the purported tryst. Then, in a head-spinning maneuver, she recanted her repudiation.
[...]
The payments made were not illegal. Non-disclosure contracts in exchange for silence are not unlawful. Killing negative stories violates no statutes. More to the point, it is not a crime for Trump to know about a non-crime. That would be a senseless syllogism.
So, where exactly is the crime? To quote a memorable line from "Shakespeare In Love," "I don’t know…it’s a mystery!"
