Tom Homan was investigated for accepting $50,000 from undercover FBI agents. Trump's DOJ shut it down.
The FBI and Justice officials closed the investigation, which a Justice Department appointee had called a “deep state” probe in early 2025.

Along the same lines, we need language for verbal political conflict other than just "disagreement." Kirk did not "disagree" with queer people, Black people and Jews, he explicitly argued that they should be suppressed and deprived of their rights through state power.

Another way to handle this would be, “The spokeswoman for DHS declined to go on the record. Our news organization does not provide anonymity to government spokespeople and thus we are unable to provide DHS’s response. We will be happy to update this story should DHS change its policy.”
You know something has gone bad when the government spokesperson says, please don’t use my name …

And yet it turns out that to get a semantic engine geared toward coherence to produce output they otherwise find acceptable… you have to make it a Nazi.

"Many cities in the U.S. and Canada are developing bike networks. Expanding their scope to specifically include the needs of delivery workers and their bikes will result in more bike deliveries." Another reason Downtown Detroit needs a bike network & more bike parking.

I keep thinking about that video that @jamellebouie.net made right after the election about how people, particularly on the right, engage with politics through so many levels of irony that they don’t view it as real - that the idea of real policy and the consequences do not exist to them

Gore winning 2000 means no Alito or Roberts. Clinton winning 2016 means no Kavanaugh, Gorsuch, or Barrett. A few thousand votes' difference means misery and terror for millions.
🚨By a 6–3 vote, the Supreme Court UPHOLDS Tennessee's ban on gender-affirming care for minors, concluding that it does NOT discriminate on the basis of sex, is not subject to heightened scrutiny, and survives rational basis review. All three liberals dissent. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/24p...

Seconds later, LA County sheriffs start firing on the crowd.
Yet again, "law enforcement" deliberately escalated.
