“Ben in Boise” Not “Benin Boise”

Opinion | The Ruthless Ambition of Stephen Miller The most powerful man in the West Wing is getting what he wants. Is Trump?

In @nytopinion.nytimes.com

Stephen Miller “is both a committed ideologue and a ruthless bureaucratic operator — and he has cast himself as the only person capable of fully carrying out Mr. Trump’s radical policy vision,” writes Jason Zengerle.

“DEI selection” - Trump

Punxsutawney Phil predicts four more years of fascism.

Perfectly captured.

Define “any way.” Lmao.

He doesn’t have the patience to wait, he’ll just blame DEI, and if it doesn’t turn out to be anyone from a minority background, he’ll call for an investigation into Public Broadcasting and NPR for misrepresenting the pilots true identities or something...

The United States is under attack. Elon Musk—who has been elected to nothing and is a deeply troubled person—is literally destroying our government from the inside and doing so without authority or consent of the governed. Working on a report on this right now. It’s an emergency.

Like it probably stands but weird to watch so many replays and to not even comment on the fact that the ball clearly hits the ground as they're fighting for it

More like to integrate with the cultural bias of Texas INSTEAD of the cultural bias of California.

Yeah, the story here isn’t that a state court proceeding is being allowed to continue normally, it’s that there are four Supreme Court justices prepared to shamelessly rubber stamp any demand Trump makes.

Fun fact of the game…

I have now seen the Ann Telnaes cartoon of Jeff Bezos's supplication before Donald Trump more often today than I've seen any other cartoon during the entire rest of the year.

So, well played, Washington Post.

Ann Telnaes Won’t Bend The Knee Neither Will We.

Read this from Marc Murphy (who is also currently serving as the AAEC president). I was on a panel with him a few years ago and still refer back to his insightful take on the difference between Truth & Facts.

I hope Boise State wins this game on the most Boise State trick play bullshit ever. I hope they drop kick a field goal. I hope they pull a fake punt on second down. I hope they run some trick play that hasn't been run since 1909. Steal Pop Warner's playbook. Sew the ball in dude's jersey.

So will the narrative be that Boise State had an incredible season, or that they are an unworthy competitor whose inclusion in the playoff is a permanent stain on the sport?

Boise State acquitted itself well. Fun game. Competitive until late. More than 400 yards, outgained PSU, nearly the same ypp.

Both teams made killer mistakes. If Boise finishes a few drives, they'd have been right in it. Deserved to be here.

That was absolutely offensive PI that the ref was not going to call after the facemask.
