The Guard are very loyal to the U.S. Many previously served in one of the four services. So it's foolish for a Governor to rely on them to oppose the Feds.
And they're very loyal to the state they live in. So it's foolish for a President to rely on them against their own neighbors.

CBS really ditching its value proposition to advertisers if they make their long form prestige news program about chasing scoops instead of in-depth reporting on a subject for a large, unique, and valuable audience
Bari’s complaint was “there’s nothing new here” and while that’s untrue it’s also irrelevant
“we intentionally sent people to be tortured in a hellhole and bragged about it and The Hague is too good for everyone involved” is a story that simply cannot be told enough

Wow, an extraordinary generous offer from a Bolts reader:
Russ is offering to match any contribution you make to Bolts (just let him know)!
And he'll also throw in an additional $$ for each repost of his post, or each new follow @boltsmag.org gets. So at least smash those share or follow buttons!

I cannot understand any music journalist talking to the not lead singer/songwriter of a band and not asking about their most musically complex song and asking, "Hey, was that your idea, or was that guy just being a dick?"
There is no way that doesn't elicit an interesting response

With the Epstein vote short by only one vote from unanimous, if it passes the Senate, what are the chances of a veto override?
How would congressional Republicans feel about actually being able to spite their president?

A worry that I keep having is that some of the hope of resisting Trump's war on America relies on his not having the federal manpower to pull it off, meaning local cops and state troopers won't play along. Governors and mayors have been hit or miss in directing the police so far...

If Amazon is having difficulty writing around James Bond's death in the last movie, maybe they should acknowledge that the idea of an unstoppable, immortal government sponsored murderer is just a slasher movie

It took me until well into college to find out that most of the annoying rich dudes I'd met were named Trey because they were "the third" or Jr Jr. The latest in a dynasty maybe.
So, now I'm convinced that Trey Parker's full name is Raymond Parker III, son of Ray Parker Jr

Willem Dafoe is who really highlights the quandary Machiavelli talks about in The Prince.
If Dafoe asked you to do something, would you do it because he's so charismatic or because he's terrifying?

It's surprisingly difficult to figure out if and when an author is coming out with a new book. If you're plugged in to a genre scene, subscribe to Publishers Weekly, and follow your favorite authors on social media, it might not be obvious that somebody just checking in might not be able to get this
