Here is my conclusion after sitting through Maxwell's deposition with her refusing to answer a single question about the men who raped underage girls, saying she would only do so for clemency.
She must immediately be sent back to the maximum security prison where she belongs.

Massie's right. And the answer will wind up being something simple: he's a crony of Trump's and he made the right campaign contributions.

I am grateful today.
40 years TV/radio weather in Minnesota, Chicago, & Arizona. I'm grateful to MPR & weather savvy Minnesotans for hearing ~ 15,000 weather hits the past 19 years. A career opportunity to create Updraft and Climate Cast.
Thanks Minnesota!

If you havent figured it out by now... "Avoiding politics" is not impressive or something to be proud of. Its literally what's got us into every single mess we're in as a society. Pay attention. Stop being silent...

It bears repeating that Tom Homan is a fucking psycho and Greg Bovino's exile means functionally nothing when it comes to what's happening on the ground in Minnesota.
In one 30-minute stretch, three legal observers were arrested — as Trump’s Border czar Tom Homan calls on locals to “end the resistance.”

the primary reason rightwingers will never control culture is because everything they do is hinged upon it being a reaction to the broader culture. the TPUSA half time event would not exist without it being a representation of their grievences

I arrived too late to an abduction yesterday. Ice vehicles boxed in a food delivery driver on the highway. They took him, and when I came on the scene (with a few other neighbors in cars), his keys were still in it. We found his phone, a debit card, his car title and registration.

DHS' own data proves that less than one in seven people detained in Trump's immigration raids had been convicted, or even charged, with a violent criminal offense.
42% had zero record.
40% had only civil offenses, such as being in the USA illegally
ICE, not immigrants, is "the worst of the worst."

Crockett: "The US is falling apart, partially bc he's allowing for killings in the street, but also bc we have a 34 count convicted felon being shielded from any type of accountability as it relates to a child sex trafficking ring. I don't understand why we're pretending any of this is normal."

Not at all surprised to learn that Bad Bunny has a historical adviser. His halftime show was a reminder that our history and culture are deeply intertwined with the rest of the western hemisphere. We should think of his performance as part of #America250. #SuperBowl

Pop star Bad Bunny needed a Puerto Rican history scholar. UW–Madison had just the one.
Bad Bunny collaborated with UW–Madison history professor Jorell Meléndez-Badillo on Puerto Rican narratives that accompany the new album “DeBÍ TiRAR MáS FOToS.”

U.K. might lose a prime minister because a guy who worked for him knew another guy who hung out with Epstein. Meanwhile the U.S. opposition party is telling our President, who was Epstein's best friend, that his secret police should get better training so their public street murders look less messy.

As corporations shell out big bucks for Super Bowl commercials, remember that many have said they were forced to raise prices due to inflation.
Also remember that profit margins in nearly every sector in the S&P 500 are running near or above 10-year highs.

Gonzales on Liam Ramos and his family: "They're not gonna qualify for asylum. So what do you do with all the people that go through the process and do not qualify for asylum? You deport them. I understand that 5-year-old and it breaks my heart. I also think, what about that 5-year-old US citizen?"

We're up to the fifth Olympics in a row where Americans who loudly proclaim themselves "patriots" denigrate rather than cheer on US Olympic athletes because Olympic athletes tend to be diverse and generally positive about diversity.
The president is now attacking a US Olympian as a “Loser” and misrepresenting his words for his mild unspecified criticisms about things going on in the US right now.

FAMU can't use the word Black on anything posted around campus related to Black History Month, to stay in compliance with Florida state laws against DEI. Black students can't use the word Black at their Historically Black College during Black History Month.
