Remembering Daniel Craig answering that question from the kid in Road to Perdition - "Why are you always smiling?"

"'Cause it's all so fucking hilarious."

Long past time.

Everyone involved with this reign of terror — including Kristi Noem and Stephen Miller — needs to be fired immediately.

It’s time to investigate.

I am launching a review into whether TikTok is violating state law by censoring Trump-critical content.

Who’s next?

One demotion cannot detract from accountability.

Greg Bovino and Trump’s agents must still be held responsible for the killings and the damage they’ve done to America.

The auditor of the state of Ohio, who is running to be the state's next attorney general, wrote an oped this morning that the Columbus Dispatch published on how Renee Good is to blame for her death.

The subheadline alone is already chilling.

The only difference between Homan and Bovino is that Homan understands that you keep the human rights violations out of public sight so people have plausible deniability to say “they didn’t know” later
CNN calling Tom Homan "well respected" and "not as hardline as Bovino" is an interesting choice. The dude took a $50,000 bribe in a fucking Cava bag and says all the same fascist shit as Bovino and Noem.

Greg Bovino sadly filling one steamer trunk after another with elaborate fashy overcoats, the teargas canisters he always has bouncing around on him like labubus, and dozens of "chest-belts." They will be shipped ahead of him as he prepares to return to his home, which is a men's size 10 boot.

The latest Economist/YouGov poll shows that only 37% of Americans approve of Donald Trump's job performance. But at this Paramount Skydance ownership retreat, that number seems much higher.
