Here's a fun factito:
Agnes signed a fancy $6,000-a-week contract* with MGM in the 1940s, with the very particular stipulation that she be allowed to continue to perform on the radio.
*So maybe $100,000 a week these days?

Here are two views of birthday girl Agnes Moorehead performing the celebrated radio drama Sorry, Wrong Number (written by Lucille Fletcher, who was also the first Mrs. Bernard Herrmann and much later wrote my beloved Night Watch*).
*The play, not the dreadful film adaptation.

Great Replacement Theory is in the National Security Strategy of the U.S.
In a section titled “Sovereignty and Respect,” the regime says it will fight the “cynical manipulation of our immigration system to build up voting blocs loyal to foreign interests within our country.”

Trump said last year that he would focus on deporting immigrants who were violent criminals. But a study of arrests in major operations in DC, LA, Illinois and Massachusetts shows that the vast majority of those swept up by ICE have no criminal record.

Or the laws of armed conflict. Or the Geneva conventions. You cannot kill people who have been rendered hors de combat in a military action.
Decent answer, but this is why CNN needs experts on the law of the sea on, instead of the usual political commentators. They could easily explain why this violates maritime rules.

THIS IS BULLSHIT‼️
Undocumented immigrants already get almost no federal “tax benefits.” Fox makes it sound like there’s a giant welfare pipeline. Not true.
They’re barred from Social Security, Medicare, SNAP, unemployment, and most federal programs, yet they still pay billions into the system.

I think that somewhere along the way something in Stephen Miller got fundamentally damaged. This is neither an excuse nor a mitigating factor; the dude is genuinely fucking evil and he and everything he stands for should be fought against and stopped. But he is something beyond mere sociopathy.
Since Stephen Miller is in the midst of another of his Aryans-only trantrums, we should note that his family are 20th century immigrants from the shtetl of Antopol (Антопаль) then in the Hrodna gubernia of Russia. Applying his immigration rules, they would all have perished in the Holocaust.
Stephen Miller Is an Immigration Hypocrite. I Know Because I’m His Uncle.
If my nephew’s ideas on immigration had been in force a century ago, our family would have been wiped out.

Everyone (esp media) pay attention. In 2021 almost every Republican attacked the Biden administration and State dept for being too slow in approving Afghanistan special visas as Afghanistan fell.
Now they are attacking Biden for doing what they asked him to do.

You're a high ranking government official and you shouldn't make things up.
Your 70% number is just a fabrication.
And it's TOTALLY not true that "every single" person you detained is here illegally. For instance, many were allowed in so they could apply for asylum.

It is wrong to punish an entire community for the actions of one person. The only thing that might have prevented this is not putting National Guard troops where they shouldn't be. And now the administration is doubling down on its bad decision.

You can't argue that prices have gone down because WalMart is charging slightly less for a much smaller and worse thing with the same name.
Such classic gaslighting it's an instructive moment. The question is not whether generic is better or worse, it's that a list with more expensive brand names is not the same as a list with cheaper generics. Perverting that truth into an attack on those calling it out is Manipulation 101.
Hassett: "On one of the Sunday shows, the anchor criticized the fact Walmart said the Thanksgiving dinner is cheaper by about $10. Then he said, 'Oh yeah, but they substituted generic stuff,' as if having a generic something is a crime for ordinary folks! It shows how out of touch these people are."
