Remember when serious and sober voices assured us that Bari Weiss was not, in fact, an incompetent partisan clown?

Head of CBS News (and, soon, CNN) taunting Zohran and cheerleading Israel/Trump’s war on Iran almost nobody wants

In case there’s still any question about the agenda behind these networks now

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.

Fewer and fewer people having more and more power and wealth will surely end well.

With megaphone in hand, and acting contrary to the purported goals of the alleged
conspiracy, Ms. Abughazaleh’s first words toward the crowd were, “that’s private property back
there, come back[.]” Then, speaking directly to the Broadview police officer standing next to her,
Ms. Abughazaleh exclaimed, “you just let him run us over! …. He literally just ran over my foot!”
The image below captures these moments in the immediate aftermath of the SUV turning into the
crowd, and also shows Agent A’s SUV (within the red circle), some distance from the intersection
where Ms. Abughazaleh had retreated, which is also where she and other protestors had been
marching for hours that morning:

A new filing today in Rabbit (Chicago 6) reveals that DOJ turned over new discovery on 2/12. It showed that @katmabu.bsky.social and four other defendants MOVED AWAY from the vehicle the 6 are accused of impeding.

Welp between partying with a fascist clown FBI Director and laughing their butts off at Trump’s sexist mockery of the women’s team, the men’s hockey team immediately squandered the biggest opportunity to expand their sport’s audience in decades. See ya in 20 years, guys.

this was less about rebuking Trump and almost exclusively about protecting corporate profits. the court is still insane

It’s going to be great after 4 years of money is no object for cruelty and revenge when Republicans discover “fiscal responsibility” again, as if they slept through the Noem’s luxury sex jet and paying 20 men to grab a gardener.

"You overreacted to Republicans before Trump" is not a tenable argument while Trumpism is protected and strengthened by Thomas and Alito, both of whom held appointed fed gov't positions throughout the Reagan admin then were put on SCOTUS by Bush I and Bush II. Trumpism was always the GOP's goal.

Judge Rufe's opinion ordering the Trump administration to restore truthful panels about Washington's ownership of enslaved persons from the President's House site in Phila is here. (I jailbroke it from PACER.)

TL;DR: Gov't acted arbitrarily, capriciously.

This is all due to the incredible resistance of the people of Minnesota.

Their resilience - and their determination - helped enforce the Constitution in a way that political elites in Congress and the courts did not or could not.

Thank you. It is a great place to live. Have to note I am a fourth generation Washingtonian whose family came here pre-statehood so I may not be unbiased. I am thankful every day that they settled here. 💚💙💚💙💚
