Charlie Kirk got rich and famous teaching young conservatives that the only way to win was to be a menace to other people just trying to live their lives in peace. Loyola doesn't want to give his acolytes their blessing, so now Jeff Landry is gonna do ... something
Ian: Jeff Landry needs to get his boot off Loyola's neck
In the marketplace of ideas, Turning Point USA lost. Now, Governor Jeff Landry, Attorney General Liz Murrill, the state GOP chair, and the Louisiana Freedom Caucus are freaking out about it. They’re a...

I am on the inaugural voyage of the @amtrak.com "Mardi Gras Service" to Mobile! I am almost certainly in the wrong section, seated across from Rex brass, Senator Roger Wicker in next car down. Brooke Lazier is running around here somewhere. Will provide updates from the café car!

The clock switches to 12:12 am.

A grainy video appears on screen. Taylor Swift appears in what seems to be an ISIS bandana.

She leads the president into view he is tied up and gagged, she pulls out a large ornate scimitar.

Swift begins to sing a song from her new album.

Chief among them: I was told the elevators at the Mandeville Wharf should be operational by the end of August, and that the entire length of the riverfront between Spanish Plaza and Poland Ave will be fully accessible without interruption by the end of Q1 2026

I spoke to Jeff Schwarz and Michael Karam from City Hall about how they are making sure the problems in Crescent Park don't continue into the new Riverfront for All project - they made some pretty concrete promises 🔊 tinyurl.com/2k9ak2am

I got a chance to ask the Bulwark's Tim Miller about MAGA rot, the malevolent force of Fox News - and what sets his team apart from the revisionist grifters at the Lincoln Project

This is almost precisely the instigating incident of Michael Crichton 1996 novel "Airframe," which is a thrilling read.

"Turbulence" sounds better than what it sounds like really happened: Porpoising! 🛫🛬🛫🛬🛫🛬
Turbulence forces Delta flight to land and sends 25 passengers to hospitals, airline says
Delta Air Lines says a flight from Salt Lake City to Amsterdam was hit by serious turbulence, injuring passengers and forcing the flight to divert to Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport

40 years of talk radio and Fox News have been the most successful propaganda operation ever imagined by the monied class.
It has created a zombified class of voters who are incapable of pulling the lever for anyone other than an R.

I did the math. 900lbs of enriched uranium would just barely overtop a 5 gallon Home Depot bucket
Lindsey Graham: "I don't know where the 900 pounds of highly enriched uranium exists, but it wasn't part of the target set."

Was Trump "disrespecting the troops" in 2015 when he was constantly saying the Iraq War was a "big fat mistake?"
Trump tags in Hegseth so he can rail against the media and accuse them of disrespecting the troops and trying to hurt Trump

Sticking up for his brother is what got this cabbage fired from CNN in the first place - NewsNation must do better but I'm starting to fear that they cannot. Until they dump Cuomo and O'Reilly, they're just another "both sides" also-ran

Chris Cuomo called Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez a "deranged form of Democrat" who is "killing" her party as he railed against growing extremism.
