How is it no one on these Senate committees saw this attack coming if they indeed have "access to a lot of classified info?" There's no way any member of Congress should trust any one in this administration to respect the powers of their respective branches at this point.

I'm kind of impressed at what a nut job she's become right before our eyes.

The fact this operation is called "Epic Fury" tells us everything: these men are running on emotions not confirmed facts, even by their own intelligence services. And Congress doing absolutely nothing should 100% affect the US midterms.

The Desi Hall of Shame and the joy of the Olympics Welcome to Export Quality, a home for my writing and a place for stories from and about South Asian Americans and Canadians

Going from Olympics to war in a week is political whiplash. I wrote and illustrated about Kash Patel, the Desi Hall of Shame, Trump, joy, and a little bit about Iran. I hope you like this series where I use collage art videos to make news less overwhelming www.exportqualitynews.com/p/the-desi-h...

He stops short of saying that he actually supports the action, just doesn't like the way it happened. This is not an anti-war statement, it's a 'you took my power away' one.

The idea of a legislative body representing the population having the ability to check the ultimate power of a country’s leader sounds really neat. Someone should write that down.

This is all making me wish somebody did interfere with the US election.

Our tax dollars are paying for this horrifying scene....AGAIN.

I want to get a PhD just so I can write a dissertation on how HR people and 2-factor authentication are the downfall of global society

And what this chaos and maniacal need for personal glory leads to is children being imprisoned and used as bait, people with health problems being abused or dying, and an entire American city under siege by its own country's government. Noem isn't just bat shit insane, she's destructive and a danger

Minnesota still needs your attention

Elmo @elmo · 1h That Bunny was AMAZING. Elmo thinks he should be called Good Bunny! Elmo loves you, Mr. Good Bunny! ❤️🎶🐰 Based Yankee @thebasedyankee You and Bad Bunny should be deported

It's not even midnight and we're already at "Deport Elmo."

You're laughing? The team that lends their plane for deportation flights and whose owner is best pals with Trump got utterly humiliated in front of a hundred million viewers, and you're laughing?

Bad Bunny MVP

I can only assume Bad Bunny will come in late off the bench to score the winning TD for the Seahawks.

Well, the Patriots literally allow their jets to be used for ICE deportations.

I can't explain it but the Seahawks are the anti-facist team.

I'm sorry but what does this have to do with Bad Bunny? (/S)

Why? I don't understand what this is. And if many Harris alum are reuniting, how progressive could it be?

The last decade I couldn’t wrap my brain around why the NYT would bury Trump stuff at the back of the paper or whitewash his racism and sexism and act like they want him to be president and then we find out the publisher’s grandfather is in the Epstein files and it’s like oh ok pedophiles again.

Just a reminder: if you are looking to cover midterms and are an indie journalist and/or recently laid off, let's talk. We all have our own newsletters but no reason we can't help/collaborate/commiserate/etc.

A manager for the Immigrant Defense Network told MPR News that back in November, 2,500 people were trained as constitutional observers. Now, the total is nearly 30,000 trained observers in 77 of Minnesota's 87 counties.

I truly hate that NYT is the last large newspaper left standing. I love a lot of parts of NYT and getting a byline in the Sunday print edition was a milestone, but it has to have competition. At some point maybe the Substack and Beehiiv's will coalesce to form a new wave of digital outlets a la 2012

Mass layoffs outlined by the likes of Amazon and UPS meant last month was the worst January for job cut announcements since the Great Recession, new data showed. https://cnn.it/4rvq5XI

I was laid off around the time of the News Red Wedding of 2019 and today seems just as bloody from the depressing news out of WaPo and AJC. I know a fair amount of you cover politics and if you want to keep covering midterms, let's talk. Going independent doesn't mean we can't team up to some extent
