doing this kind of precise open source journalism takes time and I know people were mad about early reports that didn't stake out a clear position on material issues, but getting this right with this kind of precision is important www.nytimes.com/video/us/100...
Video: Videos Contradict Trump Administration Account of ICE Shooting in Minneapolis
An analysis of footage from three camera angles shows that the motorist was driving away from — not toward — a federal officer when he opened fire.

Three SpaceX rockets exploded unexpectedly last year – twice raining down debris over busy airspace.

“It literally looked like the sun coming out,” one passenger said.

Such midair scrambles could become more frequent as launches increase, experts say.

It's quite incredible how this poor and inaccurate tool has been prioritised and integrated *so* effectively that I regularly have people tell me something they've 'looked up' and I have to say 'you're not just reading the AI overview are you' and they are.

What do you mean "but" - the people who warned about it were telling the truth and the outlets like Axios who helped Trump distance himself from it were lying.
The Heritage Foundation's Project 2025 was a campaign trail boogeyman for President Trump, but much of it became reality during his first year back in office.
Trump enacted dozens of Project 2025 goals. Here's what's left
Project 2025 has dozens more action items awaiting Trump's attention in 2026.

Rogan is such a sociopath.
Joe Rogan and Shane Gillis on Nick Fuentes running for president one day.

Rogan: “He could probably win in a few years. Listen, he couldn’t have existed before, right? Ten, twenty years ago, couldn’t have existed. Now, super popular. What’s twenty years from now look like?”

This is dope
Rookie DT Sebastian "Hulk" Valdez has been elevated twice from the practice squad only to be inactive on game day.
Kyle Shanahan said it's a reward for all of Valdez's hard work -- and it's a difference of $36,400 each time. (Rookie practice squaders make $13,000 a week). #49ers

You can see how differently the media covers Republicans perfectly in just this post alone

No panicked follow up on his health, no pushback on the batshit 3rd term non-sense.
President Trump said he had an MRI earlier this month, telling reporters Monday that the results had been “perfect” but declining to say why his doctors had ordered the scan. He also reiterated that he was interested in serving a third term.
Trump Says a Recent M.R.I. Scan Was ‘Perfect,’ and He’d ‘Love’ a Third Term
President Trump made the comments on the second day of his trip to Asia. The Constitution limits presidents to two terms, but Mr. Trump has suggested he might try to circumvent it.

This is the asymmetry in our politics and media. If this was the other way around, Biden had pardoned someone then charged with trying to kill Trump, it would be the biggest story in America and every Republican commentator, congressman, news outlet, would be screaming about it in unison.

This is why the inflatable costumes works so well -- it works the same way calling them "weird" or "creepy" did. It disrupts their narrative, and makes them seem pathetic rather than cool-and-cruel.
You need to see this:

They started with day laborers and students and journalists because they knew no one who voted for them would care. They're trying to snatch Ian Roberts in Iowa for the same reason (because he's black). They'll get to the rest of us soon enough.
