Dems love to sound like writers for the Onion

Tweet from Kyle griffin

Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand to Pete Hegseth: "You said in your statement you don't want politics in the DoD. Everything you've said in these public statements is politics. 'I don't want women, I don't want moms.' What's wrong with a mom, by the way? Once you have babies you therefore are no longer able to be lethal? I mean, you're basically saying women after they have children can't ever serve in the military in a combat role.
It's a silly thing to say. It's a silly thing to say.
Beneath the position that you are aspiring to. To denigrate LGBTQ servicemembers is a mistake. If you are a sharpshooter, you're as lethal regardless of what you gender identity is.
Regardless of who you love."

New — Video shared with me shows ICE officers in DC detaining a man on Friday.

Bystander filming asks man for his name. ICE agent lies and says he’s not allowed to speak to him “by law” and another says “We’ve arrested American citizens for being too close…If he gets any closer, put him in cuffs.”

I’m seeing lots of talk about pronouns when what many of you really need is Proverbs

Would scallion cream cheese and tomato on a sesame bagel get me a city council seat? If so I think the same order but on an everything could get me borough president

Sounds way more fun

What a read from @marisakabas.bsky.social. Her clarity about the moment we’re in as journalists is extremely needed

New — I was fortunate to speak in front of students and faculty at Grinnell College in Iowa tonight about the business of independent journalism, the current state of media under Trump 2.0, and billionaire control.

I published my full speech because I thought it might resonate beyond campus:

Truth, morality and independence in journalism under the second Trump regime

My full remarks to students and faculty at Grennell College.
