Name one free speech case you have won in court, Donald. The only way you “win” at all is when cowards capitulate in advance.

A woman who was 20 weeks pregnant fed her toddler son raw milk. He contracted Campylobacter and then passed the infection to her; she progressed to sepsis, and had a miscarriage.
She is suing the business that sells the raw milk, saying she didn’t know the risk.
Don’t feed your kids raw milk.

This ×1000. Even if "the left" isn't acknowledging right wing talking points, so fucking what? The right is literally executing a fascist take over right in front of your eyes - maybe worth casting some shade in their direction every once in a while
"The left must acknowledge that DC has a high crime rate"
OK but the citations in your own article include this acknowledgement! Congratulations, you have the thing that you want. Can we talk about the authoritarianism now?

The point of journalism is to tell people the truth! If the population and political leaders are panicking about something that isn't happening, your job as a reporter is to loudly debunk it — not plead with the other party to join the panic.
"but crime is a real issue, people are worried about crime and you have to take that seriously"
No you don't! If people are getting more scared about crime while crime is happening less frequently, it's a made up issue and you should make a point of yelling that all the time

Good News! The National Weather Service is hiring again, after DOGE’s “brilliant” decision to lay off essential staff. Apparently, round-the-clock weather alerts don’t send themselves. Who would’ve guessed?

When Nashville SC defeated Charlotte FC on Saturday, the supporters section lacked its usual verve and had visible gaps throughout the risers.
The reason was explained in a pair of large white banners.

Attn: Trump stated, “THIS IS A GREAT TIME TO GET RICH, RICHER THAN EVER BEFORE!!!” Many have interpreted this as an indication that he or his allies are using knowledge of tariffs for personal financial gain. This raises serious concerns about insider trading and market manipulation.

It's gross watching congresspeople begging the president for scraps. Maybe do your job instead and take back the power of the purse, seriously, WTF. There's a whole Wikipedia page on the power of the purse with a section about the US Congress in case you forgot the duty you owe to your country.
