Re Kimmel, it's important that Disney has left itself an out--it is a "suspension," not a cancellation or firing. What happens in the next two days--reaction within the company but also in the press, in the industry, in Washington, among consumers, and on social media--may affect how this plays out.

Trump's use of red state National Guards in DC is really about viciously turning Americans against each other, about stoking hate and violence *among Americans.* JB Pritzker's response is so good because it lays *this* bare.

Why is it acceptable for the president to use taxpayer money to fly overseas and cut a ribbon at his own golf course?
Don’t normalize this abuse of office. It’s blatant corruption.

This is the death of the US by the way, an isolationist US will eventually collapse in on itself leading to balkanization.

Wolff: I mean, Epstein would often recount his experiences with women—pursuing women—with Trump. At one point in their relationship, they even shared a girlfriend for, I think, the better part of a year.
In fact, Epstein regarded Trump’s behavior with women as, somehow, even worse than his own.

ICE had a quota of 3,000 a day. Now the quota has been raised to 7,000 a day since there’s more funding for them than anyone else. Sadly, things are going to get a lot worse with these abductions.
