Yeah, shoutout to Carr for making Talarico a national figure.
This is the interview Donald Trump didn’t want you to see.
His FCC refused to air my interview with Stephen Colbert.
Trump is worried we’re about to flip Texas.

His alleged mistress left her precious heated blanket on the other plane, so Corey Lewandowski demanded the pilot turn the plane around to go get it.
When he refused, Lewandowski -- who has zero authority to fire anyone at any time -- tried to fire the pilot IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FLIGHT.

How is it possible that Kristi Noem still has this job. Imagine if you’re a family member or a shipmate of this guardsman.

"Ordinary citizen just doing their job" was very famously tried as a defense in the Nuremburg trials and rejected. To a degree where a lot of countries have forbidden it as a legal defense in court.
But I guess those people are neither aware nor do they care.

Now, of course, CBS could choose to fight this. They could defend the legitimate news purposes of Colbert's interviews. But CBS's owners (Paramount/Skydance) have too much they want from the FCC, and from the Trump administration generally, to pursue that fight. And so here we are. 7/

The drunk uncle theory.
You don’t argue with the casually homophobic uncle at Thanksgiving dinner to change his mind; you argue so that the closeted cousin at the kids table knows there’s safe people and better possibilities out there

agree with this (hah) but also think a particular mistake the left made for a long time online, and still makes to an extent, is failing to understand that the person whose mind you may actually change is the one reading the argument you're having, not the one you're arguing with
The secret to engaging in social media debate is knowing you will never win anyone over. The best you can hope for is to have people who already agree with tell you you're awesome. You might great a dopamine thrill from the righteousness of your anger! Fine benefits, all. But you will never win.
