I’m sorry but what did libertarians think that the anonymous money laundering racism coin that you could only functionally use for illicit activity was doing other than this, exactly

Pretty sure I saw some guns in DC on January 6, 2021.
Pirro: "You bring a gun into the District, you mark my words, you're going to jail. I don't care if you have a license in another district and I don't care if you're a law abiding law owner somewhere else. You bring a gun into this District, count on going to jail. And that makes all the difference"

This is the future conservatives want.
A white man in Dillard, Oregon was arrested for stopping people on the freeway to demand at gunpoint that they tell him if they were citizens. He shot and missed one + attempted to get another in his truck to bring to police. Before his spree, he called local PD to complain about "foreign" people.
Defendant contacted police before freeway shooting
Charles Glen Simmons, 53, of Dillard, is in the Douglas County Jail on $1 million bail after Thursday morning’s alleged crime spree. According to a press release from the Oregon

Jack Lew is teaching at Columbia, Samantha Power is teaching at Harvard, Sonali Korde is teaching at Rice, Jake Sullivan is teaching at Harvard...
I will reiterate again, Jack Lew personally intervened to block these photographs from circulation.
The photos from a UN fact finding mission to northern Gaza which were part of a diplomatic cable suppressed by the US Ambassador to Israel, Jack Lew, have been released by Drop Site News. These are the genocidal conditions in Gaza that Lew specifically tried to hide from the White House and public.

Professional athletes are being advised not to leave the hotel or go anywhere without their passports while visiting Minnesota.

This is not a country that can safely host international events like the World Cup.

Boycotting is not even a political question anymore. It is a basic issue of safety.
The Montreal Canadiens are playing the Minnesota Wild in Minneapolis tonight. The players have been recommended to stay in/eat at the hotel, take the team bus to the arena, and carry passports.

Perhaps we shouldn't be hosting the World Cup and the Olympics...

I grew up in an era in which racism was much more out in the open, but only the fringiest politicians would have said anything near this explicit.
Trump: "Minnesota is a mess. There's something in the water up there. I won the 3 three times but I got no credit for it. It's a rigged state. Really rigged badly w/ the Somalians, and the Somalians & the theft. We gotta get 'em out, most of them. 92% don't work. Many of them drive Mercedes-Benzes."

Did you know that Chuck Grassley is two years older than the creation of the FBI, following the merger of the Bureau of Investigation and the Bureau of Prohibition?
New, by me: A must-read NYT Magazine report showed how Senator Chuck Grassley's oversight work as Judiciary Committee chair led to career FBI agents or supervisors being forced out, in some cases with no investigation supporting their alleged wrongdoing.

Trump: ‘We should take over the voting’
Trump, as usual, offered no evidence for any of his claims.

Elected officials don't have to have a security clearance because the People have decided that there is nothing "too classified" for them to know. There's a SCIF at The Capitol.

a thing i think about a lot is that the median tech billionaire enjoys a level of privilege, wealth and comfort that even the most profligate medieval king could not have dreamt of, with absolutely none of the responsibilities that king would have had, while constantly demanding to be thanked for it
I was thinking about this over the weekend and I was finding myself drawn back to one line -

People like Jeff Bezos have been rewarded for their industry disruption by never having to worry about money ever again, and yet they also want the rest of the world to personally congratulate them for it.

My hottest take is the reason why Clinton Wing Dems don't retire and choose to die in office is because they know the new crop of Ds are gonna come for them for insider trading and taking payola (or worse re Epstein Files stuff). Why else would Nancy whip votes from her hospital bed to stop AOC
Incrementalists take it on the chin again. This is why they hate Mamdani. He's giving up the game that people in power HAVE POWER and don't solely exist to beg you for $5 every day. He's ruining the Democratic Party by showing voters that they have the power to do stuff instead of crouching in fear

Trump openly admitting FBI raid in Fulton County was a prelude to interfering with the midterms and attempting to seize control of state and local voting process
Trump: "These people were brought to our country to vote, & they vote illegally. The Republicans should say, we should take over the voting in at least 15 places. The Republicans ought to nationalize the voting. We have states that I won that show I didn't win. You're gonna see something in Georgia"
