Implicit in every pardon is an admission of guilt. A pardon is not an exoneration.
NEGUSE: AG Bondi, that man works for you now, right? The man in that video from J6 yelling 'kill them!' at cops. His name is Jared Wise.

Love this part: "My first instinct — that I didn't think too well on — I walked out and punched it right in the face,"

If I ever do something stupid that gains public attention, I pray to all the gods that Ben Shapiro doesn't come to my defense.
Right-wing influencer Ben Shapiro insisted that President Donald Trump did not have the "attention span" to realize that a racist video depicting Barack and Michelle Obama as apes had been posted on his Truth Social account.

This prayer can essentially be boiled down to this: "Dear God, please make our president less of an asshole. Amen."
wow -- with Trump standing behind him, a man (not sure who he is) offers this prayer: "We pray that he would be mindful of the poor and that he would be invested in the alleviation of suffering happening in the families preparing to bury their loved ones in Minneapolis."

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

Chuck Schumer is obviously living in the timeline that I wish I were living in. That's unfortunate, because the rest of us are stuck in this timeline.
I get that men our age (Chuck's and mine) have difficulty adapting to abrupt, wrenching change, but my oath, what a failure to rise to the occasion.

Democrats want commonsense reform for ICE:
End the roving patrols and racial profiling.
Take accountability and abide by the same rules as local police.
Masks need to come off, body cameras need to stay on—no secret police in the United States of America.
