It is so damning of US news media that so many outlets refuse to just straight up say that Senator Tim Sheehy assaulted an activist.
He did not "help" Capitol police. They did not need his help. He wanted to assault the guy and did. He should resign.
In the interest of strict accuracy, will work - editing, soon. 😊
Super excited!

The ‘smartest people in the room’ if ‘smart’ just means glib and facile, turning out lies with complete conviction.

This is out of control.
Pete Hegseth wants to use AI to fire weapons without human input. And he's willing to blackmail a private company in order to do it.
He is a threat to our safety and must be fired immediately.

If there’s one thing D&D players know how to do, it’s organize.
If there’s two, it’s that and reschedule.
If there’s three, it’s those things and kick ass:
