It doesn't matter. America is a post truth society. Millions of people will continue to believe this story no matter what truth comes out to dispute it. It annoys me that this shit keeps happening.
Pro-Trump media went wild for a bombshell exposé claiming the Jan. 6th pipe bomber was a Capitol Police officer with CIA ties.

But now the story looks shaky, tweets are getting deleted, and the story's backers are running for cover. My @thebulwark.com newsletter: www.thebulwark.com/p/the-blaze-...
The Blaze’s Pipe-Bomb Bombshell Appears to Bomb
The right-wing outlet claimed to solve the Jan. 6th pipe-bomb mystery. Things quickly looked less certain.

I repeat myself, but...

ICE in force in Philadelphia is going to go very poorly. For ICE.

That also goes for a lot of suburbs (not all, though, I imagine Malvern or Moorestown residents will be glad to have them).
"Ceisler hopes officials in other parts of the country are watching. “It sends a message to elected public safety leaders across the country that partnering with ICE is a loser in any district that’s remotely a swing district,” he said."

More great reporting from @burness.bsky.social
NEW: Dems easily flipped the sheriff's office in Pennsylvania's Bucks County, a big swing county in the Philly suburbs.

So? The incumbent GOP sheriff had contracted with ICE. His Dem challenger promised to end the contract.

Now he wants other swing-state Dems to look at his victory as a lesson:

Kevin has a point. It's just that the GOP did not put up much of a fight against the Nazi's taking party power. The Dem establishment will fight to the death to prevent anyone to their left from taking a crumb of power.
“Rather than taking over the Democratic Party the same way the right took over the Republican Party, we should take the easier route and just start up a new party ourselves!”

I’m about to fill my pockets with stones and walk into the sea.

How many human assholes will, at some point, have one of these coins (consentingly) inserted? Thousands. Maybe more.

Senators on the brink of retirement who lived full, wealthy lives and never feared the loss of their own healthcare voting for their constituents to die from their inability to afford the same is treasonous

I will never vote for another Democrat as long as Chuck Schumer holds power in the party.

Join me, it's liberating.

Hey, any fucking shithead liberals want to try to shame me for not voting for Kamala? Come on. Right now. I will embarrass your grandchildren. The party you worship is made of failure and closet Republicans. Fuck you.

Is any betting site taking bets on whether the vote that the GOP promised Schumer will ever happen?

Because that is free money.

This terrible malpractice will not result in any organized effort to remove Schumer from leadership. That is also malpractice.

Starting a professional sports gambling hall of fame. Pete Rose, Paul Hornung, the Black Sox, Henry Hill and Boston college basketball...
I’m so old that I remember when MLB banned the single greatest contact hitter of all time from the Hall of Fame for gambling, and now it’s an integral pillar for every major sport. This is the predictable way this path would lead.

A Sharon Begley byline, almost 5 years after her death.

Upon hearing the news James Watson had died, a STAT reporter said in our Slack, "I wish I could read what Sharon would have written."

Incredible news: Sharon in fact did pre-write a Watson obit. And it is masterful and excoriating.
