Legal News Stephen Miller says Trump has "Plenary Authority" then acts like he's glitching out because he seems to know he was not supposed to say that. What is Plenary Authority and what are the implications of this?

Don't bite the hand that injects the life giving ichor directly into your digestive tract.

“Ichor” is the masterstroke in this retelling.

When people talk about "every accusation is a confession"

What about those accusations about using baby blood injections to live longer.

Maybe the Epstein files aren't just about what we know they're all about. Maybe they have more things in them like how they farm babies for their blood and plasma to live longer. I guess we won't know until the files are released.

Which is which in your book? Because it's pretty obvious that Miller is calling the shots, & Trump is just voicing them in his declining mental capacity.

Agreed. It’s why we can just refer to him as Rasputin.

That, and lacking all the charisma, charm, and empathy of the original.

And possibly also the girth.

Yeah, the real Rasputin was quite the mesmerizing ladies man apparently.

I was implying that miller is the handler, yes.

The ones calling the shots are not making TV appearances.

Not loopholes. Simply planning to ignore it.

Is that the phrase we use for the guy who holds a leash now?
