I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

This is Adelita Grijalva.

She was elected to Congress two weeks ago, officially making her the final vote needed to force the release of the Epstein files.

She has still not been sworn in because Mike Johnson refuses to do so.

"Lunch lady Doris, have ye got any grease?"
"Yes, yes we do."
"Then grease me up, woman!"
It's really the timing on her reply that gets me.

During a talk at my college, she gave an awesome full-throated chimpanzee howl. Grateful for her work.

Beware! Author Services Scam - The Crime Writersโ€™ Association

Scam alert: a scammer is soliciting authors in the name of the Crime Writers Association, offering "trend analysis" and other bogus services. I suspect this is another of the Nigerian PR scams that are so prevalent right now thecwa.co.uk/news/beware-...

It's wonderful, as is the sequel, The Six Messiahs.

Luckily, Sinclair has a helpful database of all their stations, so you can see if they're operating in your area and respond accordingly.

Trumpโ€™s Ouster of Jimmy Kimmel Is Much Worse than You Think It Is Anna Gomez, the FCCโ€™s lone Democratic commissioner, tells TNR that her bossโ€™ move violates both the First Amendment and the Communications Act. Democrats must extract consequences.

NEWS --> Anna Gomez, the lone Dem on the FCC, tells me the Trump admin's pressure to oust Jimmy Kimmel may be unlawful as well as unconstitutional. FCC chair Brendan Carr may be committing censorship in violation of federal law.

That and much more in my new piece:

RFK Jr.โ€™s CDC may limit COVID shots to 75 and up, claim they killed kids A battle is brewing over mRNA vaccines, which could intensify backlash against Kennedy.

If you haven't gotten your updated COVID vaccine by now, book an appointment fast before next week's ACIP meeting. After that, you might not be able to get one. I plan on getting mine this weekend if I possibly can. arstechnica.com/health/2025/...
