Rob Reiner: I'm going to make a coming of age drama, a fantasy adventure story, a romantic comedy, a psychological horror and then a courtroom drama.

Us: Across your entire career?

Reiner: In a 6 year period.

Us: That sounds-

Reiner: -Each one will be arguably the best movie in that genre.

Bongino saying the quiet--and cynical--part out loud.

In other words: I was making money shoveling conspiracy bullshit without having any facts and conning my audience to make a buck. After I leave the FBI, I will get back to that.

What a confession.

Um.... This is an actual judicial opinion (dissenting in the TX gerrymandering case)

NYT declares that Trump has been forced to make a rare retreat on Epstein ... 72 hours after Trump started retreating at full sprint from some of his tariffs.

At the same time the NY Times was hyping Hillary Clinton's emails, it had a reporter with emails from Jeffrey Epstein that were highly damaging to Trump.

The more NYT apologists try to minimize this the clearer it becomes that they don't understand why much of the public doesn't trust legacy media.

Anyway a great way to radicalize people is for them to realize that you just abandoned their chance at being able to access and afford health care because you didn’t like waiting in line at the airport.

I really wish he was exaggerating
I’ve said this b4, but here’s a little inside baseball from a former Republican: Back in my GOP days, we Republicans would privately laugh at how Democrats would never go to the mat to win. We always knew Democrats wouldn’t fight to the death politically.

Last night proved Republicans right again.

The ACA made my whole self-employed life possible. For almost ten years, I was able to build a career that actually worked for me AND keep receiving necessary care to address the consequences of childhood medical neglect. And I still deserved better. We all do.

This all day. Walsh is 100% correct
Respectfully, it’s not “centrists vs progressives.” That’s the old way of thinking. It’s “institutionalists/establishment” vs “populists/fighters.”

How about we shut down the government for this very popular and specific goal and then, hear me out, we hold out for like a month and a half and then, ok this part is important, after a watershed election where we ran the table, ONLY THEN, fold and don't get the one thing we said we wanted.

Senate Democrats are offering a path forward: Reopen the government and extend the health care tax credits for 1 year to ensure millions of Americans don’t see their premiums double in January.

The President & Congressional Republicans need to come to the table to negotiate.

My new political party needs to immediately rediscover that this is a big, politically diverse country. Mamdani can’t win in South Carolina. I couldn’t win in NYC. We need ALL Dems - from super progressive to moderate/conservative - and run them where they can win. 💯 this.👇

People who received an mRNA-based Covid vaccine — it didn’t matter whether it was Pfizer or Moderna’s — up to 100 days before starting immunotherapy were twice as likely to be alive as those who either didn’t receive the vaccine or got it outside that time window.

Bullshit. You can do both. And candidates SHOULD do both. Working class/middle class folks are fully capable of caring about BOTH the survival of democracy AND the price of beef. Don’t treat voters like children, talk about both. If you can’t do that, don’t run.
