A free press cannot function if the government is able to exercise veto power over critical reporting simply by refusing to engage.
The public has the right to question how CBS will ensure the independence and integrity of its journalism going forward.

Wilhoit’s Law remains undefeated: “Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect.”

There's a lot going on, and immigration law is notoriously labyrinthine. But it's still wild both that (1) the Trump administration is trying to treat millions of non-citizens who have lived here for years/decades as "arriving aliens"; & (2) *hundreds* of courts have (almost unanimously!) said "no":

The debate isn’t “moderate vs. progressive.” It’s “accommodate a corrupt system vs. confront it.” Voters aren’t asking for moderation—they’re asking: who will clean this up?

Horrifying.
Hegseth: "We unleash overwhelming and punishing violence on the enemy. We also don't fight with stupid rules of engagement. We untie the hands of our warfighters to intimidate, demoralize, hunt, and kill the enemies of our country. No more politically correct and overbearing rules of engagement."
