I don’t think our collective brains are prepared to handle three years of the new discourse insisting that Biden saying “we beat Medicare” in a nationally televised debate is now Olivia Nuzzi’s fault
Look I don't want to say you're a rube if you fell for the "Biden's incompetent" trope but it was clearly a con coming almost exclusively from bad faith actors and had almost zero solid evidentiary basis.

Poking my head up from a drive across Kansas (go Chiefs): DoC confirms that its odd statement from last evening means the state has rejected the Trump admin’s request to transfer Tina Peters. Confirmation backs up @kylec.bsky.social’s reading of the statement from last night.

The Corrections Department sent us the same statement this evening. But the department and spokespeople for the governor refused to say, repeatedly, if this meant they were refusing the BOP’s request and that they would prevent Peters from being transferred to BOP or custody elsewhere out of state.

I mean, the very same sorts of rubes elected Donald Trump not once but twice, so that's probably my answer... but I really do wonder.
