Yeah, I just got here.

Tom - I'm not staking out a position here one way or the other, but I am curious what you think a genocide is. Have you laid this out in any piece you've written?

There was a time that no administration would have - with zero evidence - called planned peaceful protests fronts for what they are calling domestic terror groups.

There was a time, anyway. That time passed.

I'm not going to be talking shit about anyone else appearance looking like *that*

Give him 24 hours to rethink it and discover the error of his words. 🙄

So she's saying if you look "different" from the standard white man, there's reasonable suspicion and that this makes it protected by the 4th Amendment. Ooooooh kay.

Yet another media fail

This may well be one of the most embarrassing hearings of a AG I've ever seen.

My favorite part here is how Loomer (and others) act as if Trump doesn't really have any agency. If a few too many people lobby him, he'll do it! Trump, in their view, appears to have no real mind of his own.

Half way through this, it hit me that I was not actually reading well-crafted satire. I honestly thought that's what it was, because the arguments were so ridiculous I thought the author must be mocking the position. Turned out to be legit. Oh well (for the author).

Awesome to hear. I always enjoy Rampell's commentary on economics.

Bill when I read this I can't help but to think: didn't Trump have it good in this country? He did, and yet all he does is bitch and moan and complain about it. Shouldn't he show a little gratitude?

That's what Trump is counting on.

The block in my brain won't permit me to think deeply about this story because I can't get past the galactic level hubris that a person would have to be committing to stand (as not even a former major) in a room full of generals and talk this way without imploding from shame.

Hasn't Trump had it good in this country? If so, why is he constantly bitching and complaining about it? Maybe he should show a little gratitude?

I love this song, and gotta be honest, I'm don't think associating Farrah and Lee Majors with it makes me love it more. Might even make me love it a little less.

They tried to (1) increase enrollment by (2) becoming a low-academic standard (3) athletic clearing house. They did (2), failed at (1) (stayed the same), and succeeded at (3), increasing the % of athletes to thereby substantially increase the cost to educate each student. Consequently NCF flounders.

So I guess as long as the POTUS thinks racism is funny, it's okay by the Speaker.

So how exactly is the national security of the US so closely linked to the existence of Qatar that we need to promise to defend them against any attack?

You should probably move the book on the lower shelf to the top shelf to the left of the other book. Wasted self-promotional real estate there if you're going to be on TV.

What does "Soros-elected" and "Soros-appointed" even mean? The stupidity of it all puts a person into brain freeze.

Does Bartiromo actually believe what she hears? I realize she's not the sharpest knife in the drawer. But you have to wonder.

Doesn't she want to do that sit at the kitchen table thing again.

Right, "unless".

"I can't not run my mouth"

Beyond "I can't not run my mouth" what is the point of giving a highly political speech to a room full of generals?

What in the world would a Trump library contain. Surely not books.

It's clear they think (Trump, Hegseth) this is the biggest challenge of the DoD, or they think that their base thinks it. Either way, it's not only stupid and performative, but also will lead to our collective danger as the eye is taken off national security threats and focused on cultural nonsense.
