We ❤️ arguing.

If you do too, here's everything you need to navigate holiday dinner table discussions about immigrants’ rights, transgender rights, and more.
The ACLU's Holiday Conversation Guide
Pass the yams and the politically-fraught chatter, everyone - it's that time of year again. We know many of us will find ourselves gathering around tables this holiday season with a wide range of folks in our lives - loved ones, friends, chosen family, and the family you'd only choose to spend one day a year with.

BREAKING SCOTUS NEWS: In a 6-3 decision, Convicted Felon Donald Trump LOSES his bid to be able to deploy the National Guard in Chicago.

I walk through the order, incl. detailed analysis on why the majority ruled as it did and why the dissenting justices are HYPOCRITES.

Over public dissents from Justices Thomas, Alito, and Gorsuch, #SCOTUS refuses to allow President Trump to deploy federalized National Guard troops into and around Chicago.

This is a major loss for President Trump, even if, per Justice Kavanaugh’s concurrence, it’s temporary and on narrow legal Q:

“National security concerns” isn’t a magical incantation. There have to be real, plausible national security concerns.

A swarm of drones becoming undetectable by flying through an offshore wind farm is not plausible. Laughably so.

Even if radar had trouble there, how’d they get to the wind farm?
Burgum claims "national security concerns" created by wind turbines are detailed in a "classified report" & pertain to "radar interference," adding that "if you wanted to attack a population center on the east coast our country, you would send a swarm of drones right through one of these wind farms"

Conservatives have long worked to brand antisemitism as a problem that exists exclusively on the left. The chaos at AmericaFest this past weekend suggests that narrative is collapsing, and the MAGA movement is being forced to confront its own internal fault lines.

So, what Bari Weiss has essentially done here is generate enormous interest in a segment she attempted to censor, only for that segment to be shared worldwide within 24 hours of her suppression attempt because of her incompetence.

Amazing work.
Bari Weiss is so incompetent at leading CBS News that her efforts at fully suppressing the 60 Minutes segment on CECOT was foiled because she wasn't aware (or forgot) that the broadcast package including that segment was distributed via a streaming app for broadcast in Canada.

Just want to add: Being convicted of a crime in the U.S. wouldn’t justify sending someone to a foreign gulag to be tortured, and arguably violates separation of powers since the “sentence” they are legally bound to serve is one issued by a judge, not Stephen Miller (i.e. the factoid is irrelevant)
Bari Weiss lied in her memo. She said segment didn't report administration's legal justification (it does in the very first sentence) and didn't say how many detainees had been charged with crimes as opposed to just those who were convicted (it does). www.muellershewrote.com/p/watch-the-...

What a mess! Wyoming has some of the least competitive ACA markets in the country. In places like Teton County, there has often been only one ACA insurer (Blue Cross Blue Shield of Wyoming). That lack of competition drives prices way up. This is ridiculous.
