Hell yeah give me that Ned Beatty filmography

The media’s collective attitude seems to be “until Biden supporters all apologize to us for not believing us, we’re going to keep regurgitating false right wing talking points that we treated Biden with kid gloves”

Such a shame things don’t work out between him and Nuzzi, they really deserve each other

Roberto Alomar, Carlos Baerga and Juan Samuel… Hey don’t forget Robinson Cano! Though he at least was solid in the shortened 2020 season (thanks to the PEDs)

tfw you have the memory of a goldfish

Everyone on this site spent the last week saying, “Trump’s brain is spaghetti, he falls for every charismatic person he meets and spends the next several hours agreeing with them, can’t wait for that to happen with Mamdani” and sure enough…but those clowns are like “omg a new populism is emerging”

Another interesting question: will it exceed sales for Tapper’s stupid book?

That’s one way to end the War on Christmas

Oh agreed. My comment was wondering about how many stories we see in prestigious outlets like the Times originate from these kinds of companies. I’m guessing it’s more than zero

Iirc that was an under explored angle of the Times’s Justin Baldoni-Blake Lively investigation. I was like, really interesting piece…so, how many Times stories are driven by these crisis PR firms?

We’re already in the bad place resulting from the back and forth, because the administration is full of lawless cranks who want to persecute their enemies. Also, I’d have had much more sympathy for this position before Garland slow walked us into Trump dodging (much deserved) criminal liability

This is some weak ass merrick garland brain

But as the excerpt acknowledges, they’re breaking the law! We need specific deterrence so these same people don’t staff the next Republican administration and break it again. Trump might drop dead in a few years but his criminal hatchet-men will be around for decades absent accountability

A useful rule of thumb for a 13 justice court when considering what cases from the Roberts/Rehnquist era deserve any kind of precedential deference!

Citizens United and even Rucho fall into the first category, whereas Bush v Gore, Shelby County and Trump v US are in the latter
