Minnesota should move to arrest the ICE officers or CBP agents involved and prosecute, just as Idaho prosecuted the FBI sniper at Ruby Ridge.

Getting blown out by a team that didn't even make the ACC title game? Just really sad to see a spot wasted on a mid-major like Ohio State. Imagine what a winner like Iowa could've accomplished

This really is, as Sara says, INSANE memory-holing: Minutes after FCC Chairman Carr told Congress that the FCC "is not" an independent agency (see video below via @atrupar.com), the FCC website started getting scrubbed to remove that description.

Before the 1990s, plane crashes caused by microbursts used to kill planeloads of people fairly regularly.
Dr. Ted Fujita and NCAR scientists figured out how to detect microbursts and warn pilots about them.
Since then? Zero airliner crashes from microbursts.

Not nearly the most important or 50th most important point here but why is RFK jr and Duffy talking about nursing options and formula at an airport?
RFK Jr: "All of the ingenuity of corporate America has not produced an infant formula that is superior in nutrition and all the qualities that we want to the infant formula that God made, which is the infant formula in a mother's breast."

I have no interest in fighting about breastmilk vs formula, but I do think more dudes should realize that sometimes, moms just dont make enough milk. Babies dont latch correctly. Shit happens! In the past, they just died. But now we have formula! which is better than dying, in my humble opinion
