We now learn that Fifa had a very specific "ask" in exchange for its "Peace Award" to Trump, with loads of gold trinkets, and that was dismissal of a criminal corruption case against senior Fifa officials. And Trump granted it. Another corrupt bargain, barely noticed (and ignored by US media).

For 50 years the right has been telling us that the appropriate response to this is to open fire on these goons. They say we need assault weapons as a bulwark against a tyrannical government snatching people off the streets.
In Portland, Oregon, masked ICE GOONS abducted and vanished US citizen Gonzalo Catalan last week. Tragically, his family remains unaware of his whereabouts and has not received any communication from him as of today.

RFK Jr urges Americans to drink the contents of one glow stick a day so "everything can find its way around" inside your body. Claims severe gastrointestinal irritation caused by the non-toxic liquid "small price to pay" compared to "any stuff getting lost in there." He recommends the "red flavor."

This is one of the most explicit examples you'll ever see of "the people who annoy me the most, personally, also happen to be the nation's biggest political problem." The quintessential reactionary centrist maneuver.

Laura Loomer: I have not had many boyfriends…You know, I care more about my work than I do about having a romantic partner. And I waited to find somebody who would accept the fact that I want to be very successful.

Counsel: Just for the record, my only question was did you give that interview?

I think the left has a few of these, the problem is that people are mistaking Miller having power on his side for Miller having indomitable will.

EG, compare to Matt Bruenig. Same clear single-minded political vision, same willingness to go to war for it, but one guy has billionaires on his side
I will note something I keep hearing from different lawyers, immigration activists, Dem operatives et al:

There is no Democratic Stephen miller . And that’s a problem

I was BEYOND excited that Simon & Schuster chose me to do the copyediting on Kamala Harris's new book. I'm legally bound not to show you too much before its September release, but they allowed me to share a small sneak behind the curtain at the process of editing such a monumental work.

Forget about Corbyn and focus on the fact that Labour is polling at *fifteen percent*. And there are people in positions of influence in the Democratic Party who point to Labour's continued lurch to the right (on immigration, etc) as a blueprint.

Yeah, it's a blueprint. For irrelevance.

1. Trans troops are now being separated from their jobs, and we have learned what discharge code they are being given:

"JDK," a code that was used to remove communists and gay people, and can be seen as a "black mark" on their service.
