Prosecute them all. Beyond the depravity of this, it's pure theft. The local prosecutor should open an investigation and charge them all.
ICE detain father shopping on Christmas Eve—then steal his family's groceries.
Then 3 agents divvy up his paid for food—taking what they want for themselves.
"Can I just get the wife's number to call and let her know?" woman asks.
"No, guess he should've complied," agent says.

The Olivia Nuzzi story and the Bari Weiss at CBS story are the same story, which is that the upper echelons of legacy media are absolutely rife with people who worship power and don't feel burdened by any sense of responsibility to their profession or the public.

Very cool the history books will show that the only three things powerful enough to stop the Notre Dame/Southern Cal rivalry:
1) World war
2) Global pandemic
3) The cowardice of Lincoln Riley

There is a tremendous opportunity for a brand new generation of media outlets to rise up right now because many news outlets that spent decades painstakingly building their credibility are seeing it torched by bootlickers with incredible speed.

i really think there is legit political space for running on "we are going to dismantle ICE"

This is the worst case scenario that everybody was worried about
It is utterly catastrophic that RFK Jr. plans to end CDC recommendations for most childhood vaccines.
It’s a betrayal of science, ethics, compassion, and the people of the United States.
And it was also a specific goal of Project 2025 (page 254).

Terrific piece by @jamellebouie.net that articulates the central problem with the Trump presidency.
He demanded unprecedented power and has, thanks to his lickspittles in Congress & SCOTUS, been granted it. But he has little interest in using it beyond his grasping selfishness. The nation's adrift.

Bari Weiss’ much-hyped CBS News town hall with Erika Kirk was a massive ratings flop
According to Nielsen, the Saturday night town hall saw a 27 percent decline in viewership compared to the network’s standard programming in that time slot year to date.

there is no available evidence that donald trump understands what a tariff is, what a trade deficit is, and what the national debt is.
The way Trump talks about the problems he caused by unilaterally imposing tariffs is fairly insane, even by his standards.

don't worry, john roberts says this is a legitimate exercise of presidential power and if we did anything to curb it, we would be robbing the executive of the energy he needs to do his job
Trump rages that Henry Cuellar didn’t pay him back for a pardon by switching parties, blasting Cuellar for a “lack of LOYALTY.”
In other words, Trump admits he was trying to use his pardon power to buy Republicans a House seat.

yes. if you woke up from a coma you slipped into sometime in late september/early october and saw this bracket, sure. but hearing so much about how close Alabama and Notre Dame were — Irish were ahead two weeks ago! — and then doing that is insane.
Bama being in is much more frustrating than anything, Miami going above because of h2h I get and don’t have issue with, the way comm waited to last second to do it seems stupid. Sucks cause I think ND could win it all, but again, can’t put yourself in this position. The kayfabe nonsense annoying tho

Alabama is treated the way fans believe Notre Dame has been treated. The further they get away from Saban, the more glaring this will be
So, BYU was penalized for getting blown out in its conference championship game (dropped one spot). Which allowed Miami to move up and get compared directly to Notre Dame.
But Alabama was not penalized for getting blown out in its conference championship game.

The New Deal wasn’t built on a promise that there would be “no ceiling” for the richest Americans.
Quite the opposite, in fact. FDR knew its politics could only work if he singled out the rich as villains and knew that its policies could only work if the rich paid their fair share in taxes.
