I feel like a huge chunk of the opposition are too scared of their own shadow, and another chunk is too scared of looking like they earnestly believe in something. IDGAF what you think is cringe, or that you are too cool to believe anything will work. I'm too fucking angry to care.

Honestly, Joe Scarborough being in the files would be one of the least surprising reveals of this mess.
Given what's now been released and the New York Times report this morning, what was this about from Scarborough and why was he covering for Trump?
Scarborough: "Trump is not on Epstein's list. There's nothing in there really damning about Trump or Bill Clinton. So one of the great mysteries is not what Trump's hiding, it's why if he's not in the files - which all the reporting says he's not - why is he so obsessed on blocking access to them?"

The Oath Keepers built a massive stockpile of guns for Jan 6th and kept them in a hotel in Virginia because of D.C.'s strict gun laws.
BREAKING: The Trump administration is suing D.C. over its ban on semi-automatic (AR-15) weapons.

DOJ's Civil Rights Division under Harmeet Dhillon is seeking a court ruling that D.C.'s law "prohibiting registration of the AR-15 by law-abiding citizens violates the Second Amendment."

Across the country, women are dying of sepsis, losing organs, being arrested for miscarriages, and used as brain-dead incubators.

Corpses have more rights than women living under abortion bans.

What better moment to run a full court cultural press about how freedom isn’t that great anyway?

I’m laid up with the flu, but I had to peek my head out and say that this is *so* much worse than it seems.

And it’s already pretty fucking bad!

None of this is “good faith political debate,” and it’s not a coincidence that all these outlets are suddenly interested in the same “discussion” at the same time.

Treating women’s humanity like a thought exercise makes it that much easier to legislate away

Truly beyond parody, at this point...
Donald Trump just announced the creation of the “Patriot Games,” an “unprecedented four-day athletic event” with “one young man and one young woman from each state and territory.”

We already knew this, but implicit in the VF Venezuela quotes is that the people in these boats are expendable.
In order to get what they want, this admin would rather be bombing Venezuela directly, but don't want the trouble. Instead, they figure nobody will mind if they murder "narco terrorists."

These people should never know another day of peace. Wiles has no remorse for the blood on her hands.
This is horrible. Trump and his crew shut down USAID, which has led to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people, and they had no idea what they were doing or what would be the consequences. Completely immoral.

(From the VF story on Susan Wiles.)

Here are the 28 Dem Senators who voted to advance the first federal ban on trans athletes & a federal definition of sex that would make trans & intersex people non-existent: Angela Alsobrooks (MD), Tammy Baldwin (WI), Richard Blumenthal (CT), Lisa Blunt Rochester (DE), Chris Coons (DE), ->
By a vote of 76-23, S 1071 passes the motion to proceed to the motion to concur. Won't know who voted for this until the roll call is uploaded, but safe to say it passed with the support of at least 24 members of the Democratic caucus. (Rand Paul probably voted nay and Steve Daines has been absent).

Exactly the sort of tyrannical behavior that the Constitution was written to prevent. See the Fourth Amendment in particular.
Armed ICE agents trapped US citizens in a restaurant and demanded their papers. Federal agents walked into East African restaurants in Cedar-Riverside, MN. They closed and blocked the doors. Then they demanded to see everyone’s papers. Every person present was a US citizen.

Apart from the fact the leader of the right mocked Reiner, one small difference is that Reiner's day job was making movies that people loved, while Kirk's starting point was creating enemies list of professors to be fired or harassed. These are not the same things.

Rob Reiner was a good guy. He made a lot of movies about good guys, in worlds where not everyone was good and you didn’t have to be good. He made movies about people trying. He was angry, as many hopeful people are. He knew the world could be better and he wanted it to be. His death is devastating.
