It says a lot about our political media environment that Democrats are called upon to defend things they never said and Republicans are allowed to emerge unscathed for things they're literally recorded saying.

Everyone wants to make “sense” of things, but we are all currently hostage to an irrationalist epistemic environment. You might as well just read the entrails of a slaughtered goat to divine where events are headed.

One of the biggest moments of my career:
USCIS canceled my client’s naturalization oath ceremony. We filed a lawsuit, went to trial, and the judge swore him in right there in the courtroom!

Netanyahu is publicly claiming Ahmed el Ahmed is Jewish.
It’s not just the lie that should bother you. It’s the confession.
His confidence to lie so brazenly about something we all saw & know clear as day is a confession to how brazenly he’s lying about the Gaza genocide. May he face justice.

It's not an accident that Mike Johnson seemed to go out of his way to emphasize that Rob Reiner's son killed him. That was a choice. It's something every reasonable adult knows you wouldn't bring up in a respectful statement immediately following tragedy.

I am convinced America crossed an event horizon thirteen years ago, when even the deaths of elementary school aged children at the hands of a monster weren't enough for their government to say "enough is enough". Hard not to think that Americans would rather have their guns over their children.

Ahmed al Ahmed, the man who tackled one of the Bondi killers, became an Australian citizen 3 years ago.
His deed was "his way of conveying his gratitude for staying in Australia, for being granted citizenship."
He took 5 bullets, and fears he'll lose his left arm.
