"microtransactions in games started by cabal of pedophile elites for the purpose of indoctrinating kids into an economy"
Ok. Well, we all knew it was evil somehow but I really didn't expect Epstein to be responsible for why video games are bad now. That's just not what I would've thought.

Judge Biery signed the order with a photo of Liam and two bible verses: The first is "But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven." The second is simply "Jesus wept."
Astonishing thing for a judge to do.

Don Lemon was not the only journalist arrested -- Georgia Fort was as well. Don Lemon has the resources to come out of this just fine. Georgia Fort may not. Let's make sure the focus is on both of them.
"As a member of the press, I filmed the church protest a few weeks ago and now I'm being arrested for that," Indipendent journalist Georgia Fort said. "It's hard to understand how we have a Constitution, Constitutional rights, when we can just be arrested for being a member of the press."
Journalists Don Lemon, Georgia Fort arrested in connection with church protest against ICE
Lemon's attorney said he was taken into custody by federal officers Thursday night in Los Angeles, where he was covering the Grammy Awards.

This is a weak cave we should ask for more.
Bare minimum to also include no masks to hide identity. But frankly walking back the extra ICE funding from OBBB needs to be on the table (ie the exact same thing Republicans successfully did with the extra IRS enforcement funding)

Dems coalescing around 5 restrictions on ICE, I'm told:
DHS required to cooperate with state probes (big)
CBP stays at border
warrants for arrests
IDs, bodycams
ICE out of churches, schools

Correct! Trump is like a middle school bully: when he senses weakness he pounces. But he’s genuinely afraid of those who stand up to him, and he’ll cave if you push back enough
The more I think about it, the more I’m convinced the Democrats have to push their hand immediately. The parallels with the delays and subsequent failures after January 6th are blaring warning signs about what will happen if they don’t go after the issues with ICE and CBP at the root RIGHT NOW.

Will Christie even be useful for NJ Republicans? He left office in NJ with an 11% approval rating, and I’m sure he lost plenty of his remaining GOP support when he didn’t endorse Trump (but because he didn’t endorse Kamala, it’s not like he gives bipartisan cred)

You can quietly hate late arrivals in your heart, but I really do think you gotta loudly embrace them publicly.
It's hard to make a break from your social/professional circles! We should celebrate wins where we get them.

one of the reasons everybody hates late arrivals from the right or even the center is they're all weepy little idiots who want to be coddled and forgiven and make it everybody else's problem. shut up, figure out how to help fix what you broke, and stop writing thinkpieces
