I have done redactions before. It takes, at the very most, approximately 10 seconds per page. They had 30 days.

DOJ is saying they cannot release it all yet because of "a time-consuming process of obscuring survivors’ names and other identifying information."

I think the biggest question here is whether or not he was aware of the Hunger Games before he came up with this idea.

Last night I was sitting through Trump's speech with bated break, waiting for "...and that's why we are going to war." I am not sure I have ever been so relieved that a speech I listened to was a complete waste of time and contained nothing newsworthy.

Trump's "things can happen" response to the Brown University shooting make me think of this #PhantomoftheOpera clip.
a woman with a crown on her head says " until you stop these things from happening , this thing does not happen "
Alt: Carlotta from The Phantom of the Opera says, "Until you stop these things from happening, this thing does not happen."

Justice Alito is probably mulling some emergency stay against the Indiana GOP senators who dared vote against Trump today.

Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.

Donald Trump's attempt to interfere in the Honduran election should be a way bigger scandal in the U.S. than it is.

Friendly reminder that striking workers are asking you not to patronize ANY Starbucks store.

If you're traveling this week, your airport definitely has other options. Zero reason to even think about crossing a picket line!

Virginia's election for governor was the best example of "Normal vs. Evil" in 2025.

We tried normal against evil in 2024, but apparently it works in 2025.

it's time for journos to start asking Johnson meta questions

"Speaker, on 5 occasions last week you said 'I haven't seen it' when asked about news events w/big implications for public policy. Do you ever read the news, and do you agree it's problematic for the Speaker to be so woefully uninformed?"
