Gotta name this Weisswashing, I think. Because I seriously doubt this is the last time she’s going to censor stuff to protect Trump.
So Bari Weiss’s first real editorial intervention at CBS is to repress coverage of American concentration camps.

America, you've spoken loud and clear: you do not like being stabbed in the dick with an ice pick. But what if stabbing yourself in the dick with an ice pick is the only way to fight, idk, climate change or whatever?

So now federal employees will be even more protected than they were before, when it was already illegal to fire them without cause during a shutdown or threaten to withhold pay from them when they return to work?
If you truly believe that this vote wasn't a mistake, you are unfit for your position.

I've given my new Senator a lot of shit on here. But I don't think anyone with power has laid out the stakes of what we're facing as clearly as she does right here.
And if she's saying this, it's because she feels she must.

This quote continues to rattle me to my core:
"So what you’re telling us is you need less evidence to kill somebody than you do to hold them."
That's Rep Adam Smith to Pentagon officials in a briefing on Trump's illegal boat bombings. As he told me in this piece, they didn't answer his objection:

Awful: Pentagon officials told lawmakers Trump now claims authority to bomb people merely “affiliated” with “narco-terrorist" groups, Rep Adam Smith tells me. But under questioning, they wouldn't say what “affiliated” even means!

Looks as if Trump is saying no Democrat will be allowed to win another national election—and he will use the FBI, the DOJ, and the CIA to make sure of that. This is a full-scale attack on American democracy, and every Republican, CEO, and conservative mouthpiece who doesn't object is complicit.
Trump: "We can never let what happened in the 2020 election happen again. We just can't let that happen. I know Kash is working on it, everybody is working on it. And certainly Tulsi is working on it. We can't let that happen again to our country."

This is, I think, one of the most frustrating things about the mandate to “reach across the aisle” & “engage in civil debate” these days. You are not obligated to offer validity to false, harmful narratives by engaging with them. You are not obligated to defend the bright-line boundaries of reality.
