I know most of the focus is on RFK Jr.'s weird horny texts, but the news that he used to spam Bill Nye with anti-vax weirdness and Bill was like, "Dude, you're you're confusing correlation for causation" is the only RFK text-message news I will ever need.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth chastised Sen. Mark Kelly for incorrectly displaying his military uniform medals, not comprehending that photographs reverse images from left to right. Here’s what that says about Joe Biden’s cognitive state.

If you’re a journalist who’s still on Twitter, from now on in your writing you have to replace “the American people want” with “troll bots in Eastern Europe demand”
Being there makes your judgment suspect. I don’t care how savvy you think you are, you’re marinating in a disinformation campaign.

Fixing our total elite accountability problem is one of the many reasons that Union Day should be our second-most important federal holiday, with ceremonies attended by the President, Congress, & all state Governors, to honor & remember what treason & high crimes led to & who actually won the war.
Since this place is new & today is the anniversary of Gettysburg, I'll re-up my periodic reminder that Union Day/April 9 should be our 2nd most important federal holiday, where we hold ceremonies at Appomattox NP & recall how Ely Parker absolutely owned the racist traitor Robert Edward Lee.

Whether it's Barack Obama wearing a tan suit to a press conference or Donald Trump calling for the execution of Democrats, both presidents engaged in norm-busting behavior.

“I didn’t see it.” “He was just joking.” “Don’t take him literally.” If the next Democratic president calls for his or her fellow Americans to be killed, can we use the same excuses?

Opinion | I believed Hillary Clinton was a sex trafficker because one of her donors owned a pizza restaurant and "cheese pizza" has the same initials as "child pornography." Here's why I don't think Donald Trump's multi-decade best friendship with a sex trafficker connects him to sex trafficking.

At the same time the NY Times was hyping Hillary Clinton's emails, it had a reporter with emails from Jeffrey Epstein that were highly damaging to Trump.
The more NYT apologists try to minimize this the clearer it becomes that they don't understand why much of the public doesn't trust legacy media.
