People who use the word "weaponize", as Mr. Rubio did in announcing bans on people who are behaving peacefully, immediately discredit themselves. It's an odious tactic in pursuit of an odious objective: attacking people's freedom of speech and association.

Bari Weiss is as much a journalist as Jeffrey Epstein was a childcare specialist.

I'm getting a little tired of people saying that the administration is incompetent. Au contraire. They have clear objectives. Yes, they happen to be to the detriment of every American and most people around the world, except for those people who pay to play, but they're meeting them.

Trump might consider pardoning Hegseth. Doing so would make him even more culpable than he already is.

Apart from this CNN article, did you happen to notice all of the reporting around the killing of six and wounding of sixteen people in Mississippi? Me neither. America's fetish with guns continues.
At least 6 killed and others injured in Mississippi shootings near high school football games, authorities say | CNN
At least three shootings across Mississippi this weekend, all apparently connected to high school football games, left several people dead—including an expectant mother—and others injured.

I'm going to say something unpopular: I'm not a huge Jimmy Kimmel fan, and just as was the case with John Bolton, I resent having to defend freedom of speech through him. But just like Bolton, it really isn't about him. It's about Trump and his authoritarian sycophantic lackeys.

Two #MusicMonday rules: don't play the same tune twice and avoid the repeating performers. So for a #twofer, we're violating both rules with the amazing Pink Martini and Storm Large whose voice is larger than large.
