Yes indeed. MAGA values are amazing. Where do all of these people work, that they can behave like this?

And now someone has uploaded a version that wasn't filmed off a TV.

There's also the torrent link there, which is probably the fastest way to download the 60 Minutes segment on CECOT if you want to save the file locally to your computer.

Cardinal Timothy Dolan failed to report direct admissions of rape by multiple priests, lobbied against extending the statute of limitations for sex abuse, and moved money off the church books to hide it from victims of sex abuse. In case you were wondering.
Cardinal Timothy Dolan on Fox & Friends on Charlie Kirk: "This guy is a modern day St Paul. He was a missionary, he's an evangelist, he's a hero. He's one I think that knows what Jesus meant when he said 'the truth will set you free.'"

Because Kirk, like Buckley, made a career out of pushing white supremacist politics behind a mask of polite civility?
Opinion | William F. Buckley Jr. would recognize Charlie Kirk as a kindred spirit
Kirk was killed at the start of what was to have been a Buckley-like college tour.

LISTEN to Gov. J.B. Pritzker warning:

Authoritarians thrive on your silence.

Be loud for America.

Very smart and necessary.
This is good: With Trump/RFK destroying CDC, JB Pritzker's officials are exploring the possibility of buying Covid vaccines from manufacturers and distributing them in-state themselves, source tells me.

Dem govs must step up and fill the void.

New piece from me:

Trump’s Decapitation of CDC Takes Darker Turn—and Hands Dems a Weapon
Illinois’s J.B. Pritzker is leading a charge other Democratic governors should take up: In our America, we’ll make sure public health systems remain strong.

Besides that this is objectively great policy and so necessary, Pritzker is just so fucking good at this stuff.
I made a promise to the women of Illinois — as governor, I will ensure your medical decisions will be your own.

Now, we continue fulfilling that promise.

Public colleges will now provide contraception and medication abortion at on-campus pharmacies and student health centers.
