Trying to coerce a foreign head of state into price gouging their public healthcare system is something I never thought I would type out in a skeet
Trump: "I called Macron of France. I said, 'You gotta double the price of your drugs.' He said, 'No no no, I will not do that.' What was the story with his glasses the other day? What the hell was that all about? ... they said, 'Whatever you ask. We'd love to do it.'"

They should have kept the thrilling "fire in the sky" section that was in the middle of "He Wanted to Say" in the original Toronto production of Ragtime (seen here with the divine Camille Saviola belting for her life as Emma Goldman)

“We need to divert attention from the Pretti murder.”

“Gotcha.”

The guy genuinely gave a shit.

And the empathy vampires murdered him for it.
CNN reporting that a week before Alex Pretti was killed, 5 agents tackled him and he suffered a broken rib. CNN says he stopped his car after he saw ICE agents interacting with a family on foot and began to blow his whistle. Source tells CNN Pretti believed “That day he thought he was going to die”

NEW: House Democratic Leaders Jeffries, Clark and Aguilar say in a joint statement, "Kristi Noem should be fired immediately, or we will commence impeachment proceedings in the House of Representatives."

"We can do this the easy way or the hard way."

"The musical is based on the memoirs of entertainer Rose Louise Hovick"

I think Gypsy Rose Lee would set the world on fire over that billing.

Breaking NBC:

Family members of two Trinidadian men who were killed in a U.S. boat strike in October have sued the U.S. government — accusing it of wrongful death and extrajudicial killings.

The lawsuit is the first of its kind to be filed against the Trump admin.

Everything they learned in Minnesota they’re applying in Maine from day one. They started off doing fast-moving snatch and grabs on the street, recording and using facial id on observers, and threatening observers directly. They’ll do it all where you live too.
Why is the msm outside of Maine not covering this? It seems like a huge and very troubling story to me. ICE coming to observers houses or calling them on the phone warning them to back off??!! www.pressherald.com/2026/01/23/i...

The President of the United States appears to have begun a journey toward deciding that federal thugs murdering innocent people does not make the great TV he assumed it would. I wish we did not live in a world in which this counts as encouraging news, but it does.

The author's obsessive and aggressive transphobia is a colossal turnoff.

Younger generations “have fallen out of love with Harry Potter because they have fallen out of love with the worldview the series represents,” writes Louise Perry. “Which is to say that young people have fallen out of love with liberalism.”
