they say we don’t build things in this country anymore, but thats not true. we still build a damn good ballistic sandwich
Border Patrol agent Lairmore testifies that he was not injured by the sandwich, but he felt the impact through his ballistic vest.
The sandwich came apart and "kind of exploded" on his chest upon impact, he says.
"I could smell the onions and mustard."

we’re going to need a lot of people to learn how to discuss Certain Events like adults. calling things what they are, correctly assigning responsibility, refusing to let the right set the terms of engagement. shouldnt be this hard.

i have zohran-supporting friends whose families have been spewing hysteria at them for 48 hours. older people have a decision to make here: do they want relationships with their kids/grandkids, or would they rather live the rest of their lives in a lonely fog of racist paranoia?
I do believe some of these people are genuinely worried. I also believe it's OK to say "Your worries are not valid, because they are not based in reality and we don't have to humor you." www.nytimes.com/2025/06/25/u...
