you could fact check this — there aren’t 30 million illegal immigrants and there is no evidence that the presence of an immigrant in say houston has any impact on housing in madison, wisconsin — or you could note straightforwardly that this is just nazi rhetoric
JD Vance: "A lot of young people are saying housing is way too expensive. Why is that? Because we flooded the country with 30 million illegal immigrants who were taking houses that ought by right go to American citizens."

I wonder if an NFL team has ever had back-to-back 30-29 games (a two week scoragami, if you will)

If the sandwich don’t split, you must acquit
Defense says that the officer's testimony was "very questionable" because he said the sandwich both exploded in spray of mustard and onions and also landed in its wrapper on the ground.

The prior assumption’s Dave lays out - that people do not form their impressions by reading policy white papers, but from just existing in the world - is probably the single most important thing that I wish I could just implant in every consultant’s / dem politician’s head
Okay I’m reading it now and, no surprise, it suuuucks in exactly the ways you would expect.
Should I have a couple drinks and rip apart the new centrist dem manifesto tonight?

you've gotta admit the NCAA has an incredible sense of comic timing
Now official: College athletes and school staff can bet on pro sports, beginning on Nov. 1.
All three Divisions have voted to approve the change, per the NCAA.

I know it’s wish casting to hope for this, and essentially nothing would happen except Mike Johnson would give an indignant answer and then not call on the reporter ever again, but my god the 30 seconds when that question is asked would be the hypothetical highlight of my year.
Not being even vaguely sarcastic:
At some point, a journalist needs to ask Johnson “you regularly claim you have no idea what your own government is doing. If we take you at your word, how are you so poorly informed, and do you this level of ignorance should disqualify you as speaker?”

Q: What's your message to the 170 US citizens who have been detained by ICE? About 20 of them are children
MIKE JOHNSON: I don't know what you're talking about with the children. I haven't seen that so I'm not going to comment on it.

I have gotten 5 fundraising texts from Janet Mills today alone. (And have immediately blocked everyone, yet they persist - all different numbers). If anything, this tells me you don’t understand the current media environment and are just going to pay consultants to run a campaign with poor outreach
