“Maybe somebody thought ‘Oh it’s a small place, it’s rural, they’re probably quiet, we can overpower them,” said City Councilor Steve Hickman.

“We’ve been underestimated.”

This is why I was pessimistic that bothering with a much longer explanation would matter
I don't know -

"You're not fighting a fascist government, you're fighting fascists who happen to control what is currently authoritarian-sh government" seems like it should come with a pretty strongly worded "here's why i bother with the hair-splitting" statement

This is an important new line being crossed. Trump isn't just pardoning the act of attempting to overthrow the government on January 6: he's pardoning *those people* for committing crimes generally. He may be creating a group of (federally) legally untouchable people.

What Bongino does here is address this story by going after this Daily Mail headline. But this story was broken by ProPublica, and it said that Bongino was able to skip the polygraph portion of the background check, which was highly unusual. He chooses not to respond to that.

If I ever have a chance to meet any of the Roberts Six, I’m going to talk very slowly and explain any big words I use.
Cue the Roberts Court saying that it’s not a bribe if Trump didn’t officially ask for a gold bar in return for dropping tariffs.
"It was tough to beat Apple, but the Swiss did it." said one administration official.

How the Swiss convinced Trump to drop tariffs with gifts of a Rolex desk clock and a 1 kg gold bar.

CNN reports that only 2% of the 600+ people arrested without probable cause or warrants in the Chicagoland area in violation of a standing court order had any criminal records at all.

The idea that these are the worst people on the planet only makes sense if you see them as Nazis saw Jews in 1940.

Going back to Summers' talk about how women don't want to work hard and don't have high end aptitude, we could ask:

Now Donald is eating crow.
In 2019, after Epstein was arrested, Trump told reporters he was “not a fan of his, that I can tell you.” Trump also said he hadn’t spoken to Epstein in 15 years, which would have been 2004.

But the just released emails prove they spent Thanksgiving together just TWO YEARS earlier. Donald's a liar.
