Again, I really wish more papers would get accustomed to the form “Trump unlawfully pretends to…” when describing things Trump says he’s doing but has no legal power to do.
Like renaming the Defense Department the "War Department," the name of the Kennedy Center has not been legally changed, because Congress has not changed it-->

they dont do this because they like Trump and want to help him. after he is gone and no longer of use to The Powers That Be, they will all laugh and swap stories about how "everyone knew" how it was much worse than is being openly reported now

Senate News: Republicans are trying to sneak a provision into their latest government funding bill that would make it easier to sell off public lands and national parks, and may have the votes to do it. If you care about protecting your public lands, now’s the time to make it known.

One way that the reaction to Rob Reiner's murder mirrors Charlie Kirk's is that the best way to eulogize each of them is to quote their words, and in both cases, doing so pisses off conservatives.
Rob Reiner: “Silence in the face of authoritarianism is complicity. Speaking out is a patriotic act. Democracy doesn’t defend itself. It requires participation, vigilance, and courage from ordinary people."

Making the most depressing point I can make yet again: the US media is going to treat Donald Trump with far less vitriol in response to him starting a random war in Venezuela vs the sheer level of vitriol that they hurled at Joe Biden for ENDING the War in Afghanistan.
Every major news organization should be writing about how insane this is and how, if he takes this country to war (tomorrow?), it is the act of a madman.
Trump: "Venezuela is completely surrounded by the largest Armada ever assembled ... It will only get bigger, and the shock to them will be like nothing they have ever seen before — Until such time as they return to the USA all of the Oil, Land, and other Assets that they previously stole from us."

I just don’t really know what you do about having a genuine psychopath as President man.
Trump doubles down on his Rob Reiner attack: "I wasn't a fan of his at all. He was a deranged person... He became like a deranged person, Trump Derangement Syndrome. So I was not a fan of Rob Reiner at all in any way, shape or form. I thought he was very bad for our country."

How right Rob Reiner was/is. Another force of good leaves our world whilst the most evil remain to continue deliberately destroying everything around us. It’s infuriating and devastating.

The American state media went from attacking President Biden’s age endlessly and never once acknowledging the countless good things he was trying to do to now trying to somehow normalize the orange felon mocking/condoning someone’s murder. It’s grotesque.

When Donald Trump wished the haters and losers a Merry Christmas, what did they think was happening?
it’s interesting to see so many MAGA folks acting shocked at Trump’s statement, which is basically the same as every Trump statement I’ve ever seen

I see now why Leftists prefer the white guy over the accomplished Black woman: he shits on Democrats for the actions of Republicans.
“Joe Biden failed us on the southern border…And that failure by Joe Biden paved the way for Donald Trump to come in, masked men in unmarked vehicles, secret police tearing parents from their children, kidnapping people off the street.”

He lands this whole moment & the punchline so hard.
One of my all-time favorite clips of Rob Reiner, from his Friars Club Roast in 2000, as he reads aloud Roger Ebert's infamous scathing review of his movie North. The man had an amazing sense of humor about himself. RIP.

The child and parents are US citizens, but that doesn't even matter.
These monsters pepper-sprayed a baby.
We cannot allow ICE to continue this behavior, and they aren't going to reform themselves.

NEW: The Trump-Vance White House has falsely accused an ally of Pope Leo — Sr. Norma Pimentel — of illegal activity tied to migrant aid, and cut off all federal funding to Catholic Charities in Texas.
Church leaders say it’s a targeted, political reprisal against Pope Leo and the Catholic Church.

This is an impeachment offense, and if our press were worth half of a quarter of a shit, it would be all over every single channel, kind of like Joe Biden being a bit slow with a name now and then.
This should be the biggest story in the country right now. The sitting US President was extorting state lawmakers from his own party by threatening to withhold public money if they didn’t gerrymander for him.
I don’t know how else to say it…
