Well, threatening to unleash the US military against peaceful Americans in a dystopian flouting of law *has* gotten everyone to stop talking about Donald being on Jeffrey Epstein's list.

The Culture-War Furies Behind Trump’s Film-Tariff Plan
The president doesn’t have the authority to impose tariffs on movies produced abroad, but he still wants to be the right’s designated culture commissar.

Opinion | Pope Francis Was a Champion, if an Imperfect One, for L.G.B.T.Q. People
He helped L.G.B.T.Q. Catholics feel more at home in their church. And that meant their families and friends also felt more at home.

*Of course* advance information on US combat operations is classified. Pretending otherwise is an insult to our troops, who all know this.

Vance’s favorite demagogic tactic, which he brings to every argument, is to reshape his opponent’s position in an absurdly extreme and preposterous way so he gets to argue with a fictitious person who doesn’t exist. It would take one phone call from Trump - everyone knows that.

Seeing these enormous crowds gathered outside to protest Donald Trump, I am reminded of how Donald had to move his inauguration *inside* the Capitol because he was afraid (rightly) that the crowds outside would be too small.

I have never seen anything like this in NYC. 5th Ave covered from 42nd St well to the 20s. Nobody prepared for this volume. Volunteers are holding the traffic on all the side streets. No police in sight. #handsoff
