Sincerely doubt it. The MAGA base would be happy to have a new snuff film. DHS will probably cut it into a new sizzle reel.
Rand Paul tells me that he wants the full video of the Venezuelan boat strike released.

“And I think if the public sees images of people clinging to boat debris and being blown up, I think that there is a chance that finally, the public will get interested enough in this to stop this.”

I already posted about this but genuinely, this is why we don't back down. (And even if this hadn't happened, we'd have kept fighting.)

Oh I know this one.

It’s because their understanding of ‘free speech’ is

MANDATORY LISTENING

To them
Only
Forever.

They believe they have an inalienable right to an audience and a microphone, always.

Not to mention the occasional skewering like "Your Racist Friend".

"This is where the party ends
I can't stand here listening to you
And your racist friend
I know politics bore you
But I feel like a hypocrite talking to you
And your racist friend..."

Serendipity:

“Before we appeared on the Johnny Carson show, the scrupulous bandleader made us rehearse it several times using a metronome, but for the actual performance the count had somehow been set 10 beats-per-minute faster. It was hard to sing that fast, but it gave it a nervous energy.”

This They Might Be Giants TONIGHT SHOW performance of "Birdhouse In Your Soul" from 1990 remains firmly lodged in my noggin thanks to the Tonight Show Band's full commitment and Doc Severinsen's incredible trumpeting... It took an already great song and made it transcendent.

2/ Universal HBV vaccination within 24 hours of birth has worked incredibly well to safely protect infants from lifelong hep B infection.

CDC surveillance data (2008-2023) show that among those age 0-19 (the cohort protected by universal HBV-BD) acute hep B rates have been ZERO since 2011.

I hope someone draws this wonderful story about Tom Stoppard's Arcadia and the power of the arts to help us see things differently, to the attention of our Education Secretary. Do read it, it will lift your spirits.

Literally a week ago, the press secretary was demanding that the six people that made a video about not following illegal orders provide an example of an illegal order that’s been given.
