One of the best games I’ve ever watched and I’m not even a Bears fan (though I am glad they won).
Soon with the football. A big one tonight on the lakefront as the Chicago Bears host the Green Bay Packers. Parking lots are packed with tailgaters, so it should be a fun one. Follow along!

Have you ever heard someone go off, and their words are so perfectly chosen, so well said in that moment, that you’re in awe? You think, “There’s nothing to add here,” and you applaud in your head.
That’s exactly this. Pure perfection. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

can’t trust a historian without a clacker involved is an idiotic take
I would struggle to trust an academic who doesn‘t know how to

fucking terrifying to know that people are literally indoctrinating themselves on this bullshit- and like Yashar points out- the ppl listening to this garbage are your coworkers, your nurses, your doctors, police, your friends. They are being radicalized. Wake up, indeed.

Candace Owens, responding to Ben Shapiro’s speech at Turning Point USA, mainlines unquestionable Neo-Nazi propaganda, including dangerous Talmudic conspiracies.

is this why the oath ceremonies are now being cancelled for people who are on the new list? 😭
Trump is directing his administration to begin de-naturalizing around 100-200 people per month, on top of current immigration efforts to end visas, deport illegals, and deny visa applications.
