I suspect the Department formerly known as Defense will accept service under Department of War just fine.

BREAKING: Judge blocks Trump plan set to take effect Monday that would rapidly dismiss many/most? immigration appeals. Judge Randy Moss (Obama/DC) says DOJ has to complete notice-and-comment before such a change. Doc: www.documentcloud.org/documents/27...

We did. Almost accidentally, but they're ours now. Misdemeanor and Maximum. At the moment they run my whole life, but they're learning quick.

It's *supposed* to be quite difficult. But apparently the US stopped paying attention to the Constitution a while back.

Now that the goblin twins have more freedom inside the house, they're backsliding a little on the training.

This is a dumb "So-and-so refuses to rule out incredibly unlikely thing THEREFORE that incredibly unlikely thing must be happening, maybe!" story.

Most "refuses to rule out" stories aren't worth a damn. It's bad journalism.

DOJ’s conviction rate (not counting plea deals) in normal times is north of 90 percent. A stunning and humiliating series of failures.

Ruben Ray Martinez: Footage shows US citizen shot by ICE agent in Texas traffic stop The Department of Homeland Security did not disclose Martinez was shot by one of its agents until almost a year later.

Newly released footage shows an ICE agent killing Rubin Ray Martinez, 23, in his car in Texas.

"He was shot at point-blank range through his side window by an ICE agent who was in no danger."

Sorry. Yes, I know. Us non-parents should rarely, if ever, comment on parenting. Obviously, not my lane. But seriously. If somebody needs therapy because gays exist, that's a them problem, not a me problem.

If people need hundreds of millions of dollars of therapy because their children became aware of the existence of gay people, that's a failure of parenting.

Judge Royce Lambert in Washington rules that Kari Lake’s appointment violates both the Constitution and federal law, and that all her actions as acting head of the U.S. Agency for Global Mediaβ€”including attempted firingsβ€”are invalid and cannot be ratified.

One of the best Star Trek: TNG episodes analyzes this question, and let's just say you're not going to like how it is resolved.

Six people legally living in the US and legally traveling for work were disappeared by the US government and the only reason we knew about it was because one woman was family friends with a county commissioner and her cell phone pinged to two detention centers.

I would like to know who decided and why they decided to use Piano Sonata No. 14 in C-Sharp Minor (that's Moonlight Sonata) for Ilya baring his soul to Shane in Russian. #heatedrivalry

That's how it works, btw. I would get a call sheet that had the station ID, the location, the time, and the name of the host (so I wouldn't fuck it up). It would be like eight shows in all over the course of two or three hours. Short little hits.

Did not expect Dr. Drew!

I told the booker that in the future it would be helpful if they flagged the nationally syndicated programs on call sheets, as opposed to the random morning shows in like, Little Rock.

My Dr. Drew story is that some years ago I was doing a series of radio hits about an op-ed I wrote that proceeded from east to west across the country, ending with, according to the call sheet, "KABC L.A. - Drew."

It wasn't until I was on the hostile call that I realized it was the Dr. Drew Show.

Bodycam video contradicts ICE claims in fatal shooting of U.S. citizen Ruben Ray Martinez in Texas Video of last year's fatal shooting of Ruben Ray Martinez obtained by CBS News appears to contradict claims that Martinez was shot by an ICE agent because he "accelerated" and "intentionally ran over"...

DHS claimed "an ICE agent had fired 'defensive shots' into Martinez's vehicle after Martinez 'intentionally ran over' another agent."

But body cam video now "shows that Martinez's vehicle, a blue Ford Fusion, was stationary or going at a very low rate of speed when he was fatally shot."
