Personally I‘m waiting for the inevitable “journalist goes on bad thing safari” piece, because I enjoy simple pleasures and am fan of the genre.
Melania hasn't sold a single ticket at all in Boston. This movie was an obvious bribe by Bezos and Amazon.

Just started doing new data analysis and I know I keep saying this, but: I really, really don't think people appreciate how much this moral panic was a deliberate and extremely expensive invention.

We in movement get super irritated with each other, we have grudges that span decades, but at the end of the day we say "oh great this fucking guy again" and then have his back anyway.
We are not perfect, but at the end of the day we are there to help, not to cause harm.

noticed a trend this week where both the right and some liberals have been like "just realized the left actually means what they say about stuff"
James O’Keefe responds to a comment
“Figured they (ICE protesters) were being paid…”
O’Keefe:
“No, it's more terrifying than that. It's not transactional.
They actually believe in their cause.
That truth is going to be hard for most people to understand or accept.”

LRADs project sound in a straight line ahead of them that can be heard from hundreds of meters away. The sonic beam is super narrow though. If you get caught in one, cover your ears and immediately move SIDEWAYS. Stepping directly to the side will leave you unaffected.

To avoid the possibility Holocaust remembrance might lead to empathy for migrants, Trump's antisemitism envoy claims Anne Frank "was in Amsterdam legally."
In reality, Margot Frank received a summons to go to a labor camp on July 5, 1942. After ignoring this call, they were in Amsterdam illegally.

So...
1. Dems decide the reason young people don't like genocide or a bad economy is TikTok being a Chinese psyop
2. Dems put more effort into this than they put into the '24 election
3. Trump gets to "save" it on Day 1 then hand it off to his pals
4. Dems furious TikTok is compromised
Incredible.

The rules of appellate procedure are arcane & inscrutable.
👀 Judge Schlitz, the chief federal judge in Minnesota, has ordered the head of ICE, Todd Lyons, to appeal personally in court Friday and threatened him with contempt for the agency’s repeated violation of court orders.
