This is stupid sensationalism. It’s the equivalent to ‘shortly before the accident the plane was flying’

The plane had been cleared to land on Reagan National Airport’s main runway. But in the final moments of the flight, air traffic control asked the pilot to land on a separate, intersecting runway. (emiily steel, kate kelly) www.nytimes.com/2025/01/30/u...
Shortly Before Fatal D.C. Plane Crash, Jet Pilot Was Asked to Change Runways

Roundups of migrants begins tomorrow with many ending up in camps. Obviously Elon Musk trolling by doing a Sieg Heil salute is gross, but it isn't what I'm most concerned about, even as a Jew. Don't take the bait and get into multi day arguments over it. Worse shit is happening.

5-4. Surprising.
What a coincidence with the timing of that Alito/Trump call on Tuesday…
Take note on the justices who would have granted Trump his stay: Alito, Gorsuch, Thomas, and Kavanaugh.

Why do I say this? He resigned from the 118th congress which ends on Jan 3. He was elected to the 119th congress. He’ll be back in congress on Jan 3 and this was just an attempt to get rid of the ethics committee investigation into his antics.
Matt Gaetz was never a real choice for Attorney General. This was Trump doing him a favor so his resignation from Congress didn’t look like what it was. He was about to be expelled because of the Ethics Committee report. The new guy won’t be any better.

Last year, when I was at MSNBC, I did a 10-minute deep-dive into RFK Jr's anti-vaxxer role in the measles outbreak that killed dozens and dozens of kids in Samoa.
I hope every Senator voting in his confirmation process for HHS knows about this crucial and awful story:

Just to be clear: the incoming Trump administration is going to war against their own Republican senate majority and the constitution's advice and consent provision so they can make a man investigated for ***sex trafficking a minor*** into the most powerful law enforcement officer in the country.

I don’t think there’s a ‘just one thing’ that Harris could have done to change the outcome, but I do know that Democrats will fight about this for the next year. Meanwhile, Republicans don’t blame themselves when they lose. They make up fake stories about immigrants voting and stolen ballots.
