conduct yourself in a way that does not lead the entire news organization you are supposedly in charge of to leak a new and different embarrassing story about you every day

Towards the end of Trump's interview with 60 Minutes in November, Bari Weiss rushed into the room to introduce herself and the pair exchanged kisses on the cheek, leaving 60 Minutes staff stunned at the "overly chummy" embrace.

Publishing the names of protesters and contacting their employers to have them fired for exercising their rights is a tactic straight out of the White Citizens Councils.

on top of which, there is *one weird trick* to figuring out if the republican party wants to extend the franchise to a group of people
Small peeve: Punditry (or GOP boosterism) that pretends Greenland would be the 51st state.
Of course it wouldn't. We bought the Virgin Islands from Denmark a century ago. More than 2x the population of Greenland. It's a territory, and its citizens don't have voting DC reps. Neither would Greenland.

“Republicans have been self-segregating out of the leftist indoctrination centers for decades” is a terrific motto for the voucher/charter movement.
Something I desperately need everyone to understand is that the entire modern conservative movement, from Buckley to Trump and from the Heritage Foundation to the Federalist Society, exists as a direct backlash to the Warren Court's decision in Brown v. Board of Ed.

The Insurrection Act is not "martial law." It doesn't displace civilian law, it doesn't suspend habeas corpus, it doesn't alter or suspend state and local government, and it doesn't make anything newly illegal. It allows using the military to enforce existing law, it doesn't change what the law is.

It’s been reported locally, but I’m not sure how much national notice this has gotten. As part of this invasion by shithead goons, they are putting ICE agents in jetbridges and other parts of the airport at Minneapolis-Saint Paul. If you are flying Delta via MSP, you are putting yourself at risk.

This sounds insane, but given who we’re talking about, it tracks.
@milestaylor.bsky.social says Stephen Miller told him that “if Trump won reelection, it would be a shock and awe blitz…and one of those things he would look to do is invoke the insurrection act.”

i’ll say it again, jennings is a contemptible liar and it is a disgrace that CNN puts him on television every night to spread bullshit
The thing is, some people can make mistakes, get things wrong, be careless, etc. But that’s not what Jennings did here. Jennings knowingly, purposefully and intentionally lied to utterly distort what was said, which CNN pays him to do every day. CNN is the enabler of this.

Some of the stories in here are absolutely chilling. One US citizen of Somali descent was just riding an elevator with ICE agents and then they detained him for almost half an hour in the freezing cold despite him showing agents his passport card. They only let him go once protestors showed up.
