This is, bar none, the most absurd thing I've ever seen and I think if you had told Americans in 1975 this happened their eyes would melt out their sockets, but if you told us in 20005, we would have shrugged because it would have sounded like the next W/Cheney authored horror show.
The new “pentagon press corps” is doing some serious public-service journalism 🤡

Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.

This man may be the most racist president this country has ever had, and twelve presidents owned slaves
Trump: "It’s a hellhole right now. And those Somalians should be out of here. They've destroyed our country. And all they do is complain, complain, complain. You have her. She’s always talking about the Constitution provides me with – go back to your own country and figure out your constitution."

Nick Fuentes has been working overtime to sanitize his image and present himself as a uniter of the left and right. Very clearly using language often associated with the left.
This is part of a larger effort by the anti-Zionist antisemitic far right to recruit people on the left.

Just standing around like assholes while Trump ranted about Black immigrants. It's been a day and there have been no embarrassed denunciations from the attendees. So I think it's fair to say they didn't see a problem with anything he said.
It was auto industry execs.
So far I have:
Ford CEO Jim Farley
General Motors Co. plant manager at the Orion Assembly site, John Urbanic.
Michigan U.S. Rep. Lisa McClain

Why not? The media is going to report on it with this headline:
"Pentagon says Signalgate report 'totally exonerates' Hegseth."
And then put the story behind a paywall, so now it's a canon event in the Trump LARP lore.

It appears Hegseth’s response to the watchdog report finding that he directly endangered U.S. troops is just lie & say he didn't.
“This Inspector General review is a TOTAL exoneration of Secretary Hegseth @PeteHegseth," spokesperson Sean Parnell said, per Trump acolyte Laura Loomer. trib.al/QxJPk4u

Signalgate is small potatoes compared to the murder of dozens of Venezuelans, but I would be fine with Hegseth going down for either. but then, in 2029, he has to go to prison for life.

Someone tell Roger Wicker this is how it's done.
Well, an independent investigation now confirms it: Hegseth endangered the lives of American pilots during Signalgate.
Our servicemembers deserve leaders who never put them at unnecessary risk. If Hegseth had a shred of decency, he’d resign.

If we had kicked Pete Hegseth for Signalgate, it's possible that dozens of men would still be alive and with their families instead of being murdered in international waters to make government-sponsored snuff films for their emotionally dead voters to enjoy.

Everyone does it, "critics say" and then put what the truth is in their mouths, like opinions, so that Trump fans are free to choose their own reality.
Critics of the boat strikes say that under US and international law, killing noncombatants, including suspected criminals, who pose no immediate threat is illegal. Here's what to know
Are Trump’s Boat Strikes Legal?
US strikes on alleged drug-cartel boats in the Caribbean Sea and eastern Pacific Ocean under President Donald Trump represent a sharp departure from traditional US counter-narcotics efforts. Unlike earlier maritime interdictions led mainly by the Coast Guard and other law enforcement agencies, these missions have taken the form of military airstrikes.

They put truth into quotations to make it seem like opinions so that readers can choose their own reality. The goal isn't to inform, it's to conform, as well as they possibly can, with Trumpworld narratives, and coddle right wing readers by leaving open doors into conspiracy and delusion.

I'm sympathetic to the idea that progressives need to rethink procedural barriers to getting things done, and that this a crucial moment for American government. But we are witnessing a shift to authoritarianism right now. American needs not just a theory of power but also theory of accountability.

Lesson two: Doing something is not the same as doing a good thing - it is harder to build than it is to destroy.

So racism and homophobia and general capitulation aren't the only reasons to not bother shopping at Target.
It’s unclear why the prices differ, but a new notice on Target’s website offers a potential hint: “This price was set by an algorithm using your personal data.”
Your Data Might Determine How Much You Pay for Eggs
A newly enacted New York law requires retailers to say whether your data influences the price of basic goods like a dozen eggs or toilet paper, but not how.
