An attack in violation of Article 2(4) of the UN Charter and the Take Care Clause of the Constitution.

Seemingly conducted as covert action and then casually disclosed by POTUS while calling into a radio show.

When John Doar was head of the Civil Rights Division, he quoted from Shakespeare’s RICHARD III in an eloquent closing argument in the case against Klan murderers.

The current head is calling podcasters “hoes” for criticizing the president’s cabinet

I feel like "attention hacking" is most of politics now. The Minnesota aid fraud story is becoming a perfect example.

Recap: In 2022, the Biden DOJ filed the first charges against dozens of fraudsters, many of them Somali-American, who'd fleeced a state food aid program. (1/x)

These parents killed their child and we need to say it
“The vaccination has stuff we don’t trust,” said the father of the 6-year-old girl who died of measles. In March, Tom Bartlett wrote about his visit with a family confronting an unthinkable tragedy.

Vicky doesn't allow for quote posting but I think people forget during BLM protests a teenager killed protesters and was not only not convicted but raised a hundreds of thousands of dollars for doing it.

Denmark lost more troops per capita in the post 9/11 war on Afghanistan. Saying they “are not a good ally” because they won’t surrender their territories to the US is lunacy. We are betraying our allies to satisfy the whims of a would-be Emperor for whom the US is not enough.
They’re again advocating against Denmark when it comes to Greenland

I suspect it's going to affect all the games, especially those not involving the US. Lotta people probably don't want to risk getting jailed by ICE, kinda puts a damper on the tourism
Watching the broadcast makes it seem like it's about half full. I wonder if many Canadian fans, despite being close, said no way to spending money in the US. I'm sure that's a factor for many.
Barring the possibility of a late arriving crowd, 3MAaM will be much less than full for Canada v Czechia in 17 minutes.

I wrote a while ago about how much it matters that powerful people’s brains are being totally cooked in fascist online content. I think about that every time the president goes on an insane posting frenzy.

This is also why I think New Yorkers have a different view on the pandemic than other people. We remember what March and April 2020 was like, we were the part of the country that got to witness how bad it could be. I remember the field hospital and the trucks full of bodies. I remember the sirens.

Government services aren't businesses. Delivering mail to citizens is something we pay for.

But if these are businesses, you won't believe how much money the military loses.

The USPS faces a tight squeeze. With fewer people using the mail, it’s lost more and more money: $9 billion in the 12 months ending in September alone.

For the same reason I can dislike art when I find out the employees were overworked and underpaid.

Because I care about people.
