He sucks but at least he’s been consistent on this - last April/May he was calling them a painfully regressive tax on America’s working class.

Exactly this.. the small business construction guys on every rotary club in every small town will scream at you if they don’t have a constant stream of gigs. And without the IRA, this is it..

Ah thank you for the clarification - that makes much more sense.

Presumably you won’t be able to bring guns into schools because kids’ safety or whatever, but how about hospitals? Or eg the offices of United Healthcare? What an insane thing to work toward.

How is this supposed to work? Are they just going to kill gun-free zones?

He and his ilk frustrate me more than almost anyone - doing excellent journalism but then punctuating it with the most mealy-mouthed equivocating critiques. Had they treated this like the serious disaster it’s been from Day 1, we might be in a different place.

It’s literally the language used when you’ve applied max pressure to a despot to abandon a weapons program or something.. not as the first line of resistance to a moron threatening to invade an ally.

Don't forget ACORN and IRS auditing of politican nonprofits that had no business being political, and a million other things that further entrench R interests.

I somehow got on Chudstagram over the weekend and Andrew Tate / Fuentes / all these douchebags were hanging out in Miami this weekend.. pretty dire world we live in.

When you’ve lost Jake Tapper, there will surely be a relentless multipart investigative focus into his mental health with a drumbeat of anonymous accounts now, right?!

But it’s far closer to ‘brandishing‘ and related crimes which is absolutely an escalation and which will end poorly for everyone. I don’t begrudge anyone for open carrying but doing so will make LEOs *much* more likely to pull their own firearms.

Because he didn’t get the Nobel from the government in *Norway* - which isn’t even the organization who handles out the Nobel.

Philly protests will be sponsored by Energizer and I’m here for it.

And his father hates him and is embarrassed that this piece of shit is his son. And if you point that out to him like @stevanzetti.bsky.social did on Twitter, he’ll play tough and then block you 😂

Part of it is designed to increase the cost of litigation so even if you start in a neutral forum you’re going to need to waste a ton of money and billable hours squabbling with their lawyers about forum.

The guy accused of attempting to blind the pilot of Marine One with a laser pointer, Jacob Winkler, was just acquitted.

I mean, on top of all the other ridiculousness about Jeanine Pirro gunning for Jerome Powell, she can't even win convictions for relatively simple cases.

From the jury instructions, it seemed that the cop lied on the stand (or in his initial statement) as the two accounts didn’t match - and the cop was the only witness.
January 17, 2026 at 5:25 PM
If you read the indictment, it was a (likely homeless) guy not wearing a shirt and mumbling to himself who was pointing a laser pointer at things around him - a cop shined a flashlight in his eyes, the guy shined the laser back at the cop, and then at Marine Force 1 as it flew over.

Yeah really only for cases of broad public interest where reporters show up. I wonder if maybe Spanish language papers had more coverage since her crimes were mostly Ex/Im fraud to Mexico?

The one video I saw with an ICE agent talking was a dude from Texas… he’s going to absolutely hate his life. 😂

No mug shots are released for Federal cases - that’s why they do that perp walk when they arrest people they want to embarrass.

It’s the Putin model where you have ‘entrepreneurial’ oligarchs (DOJ employees here) competing for the mad king’s favor. He doesn’t need to issue an order, the corrupt clowns will do all manner of illegal and unethical acts to win his favor.
