Anger is a gift. Know your enemy.
I’m an ally. I grew up near the swamp with WaPo in my crib. I’m all about politics, at least here. I learn by following those much smarter than me. And I influence by asking them questions and presenting newish ideas.

Farewell to CBS News and "60 Minutes." It just went the way of the Washington Post's editorial page

Once you begin surrendering to Trump, he always wants more. You can’t appease a tyrant. Some thoughts...

U.S. military spending is set to hit a record $1 trillion.

Roughly half of defense spending goes to private contractors that routinely price-gouge the government.

Meanwhile, the Pentagon has failed EIGHT straight audits.

This is the military industrial complex on steroids.

Ut oh. DOJ posted a bunch of deliberative files on 2019 prosecutorial decisions, then took it all down.

I guess Todd Blanche feels like he has to directly compete with Bari Weiss for stupidity?

The CBS 60 Minutes Doc confirms what we knew: The U.S. is currently using our tax dollars to imprison brown people with no criminal record in torture camps overseas.

"Metropolis does not use license plate recognition,” Morrissey said. “Instead, our computer vision platform is trained on a comprehensive and proprietary data set to recognize vehicles with a ‘vehicle fingerprint’ based on its unique characteristics..."
Two of the city's largest parking garages are now using artificial intelligence to recognize your car
The city and the new operator, Metropolis, promise a smooth experience from the technology, but customers in other cities have filed class-action lawsuits over the system.

The New York Times allowed an opinion columnist, whose photographs appear in the Epstein files, to post his opinion on the Epstein files.

This is egregious journalistic malpractice.

JV DJT uses the epithet “globalists” to criticize the right wingers leaving Heritage because the Hitler-curious antisemitism there just got to be too much. I genuinely am undecided as to whether JV DJT is profoundly ignorant, or actively malignant. Could be both I suppose.

It’s been well reported that 1000 FBI agents “pulled all-nighters” scrubbing Trump’s name from the Epstein files, which explains the heavy redaction. Trump was Epstein’s biggest client & the most prolific child rapist.

“This document proves if the FBI had done its job in 1996, Epstein’s decades-long sex trafficking operation could have been stopped at the outset... the FBI’s negligence allowed Epstein to continue abusing hundreds of girls and young women for nearly 25 more years.”

In this picture from the newly released Epstein files we can clearly see Trump raping a young girl while another young girl looks on. But it is possible the raping has been taken out of context by the redactions.

Home Depot says installed the noise machines on California property to keep people from illegally parking overnight and that it has nothing to due with immigration enforcement. Yet the machines seem to be on during the day and affect day laborers. This does not make sense on so many levels.
