We are looking for #rstats community feedback on 3 new dplyr functions!
We're aiming to expand the `filter()` family:
- `filter()` to keep rows
- `filter_out()` to drop rows
- `when_any()` and `when_all()` as modifiers

This is the way the normalization works. Scenes the media would've/could've chased a month ago go ignored in favor of what's new/shocking. It's not that people aren't reporting on what's happening, because they are. But the bar for what's "newsworthy" always shifts.

It was a bunch of people praying and singing. Local cops cleared a path for a fascist propaganda op and then assisted federal forces in brutalizing protesters. Those are the facts.
Noem introduced Border Patrol Chief G. Bovino who claimed the protesters nearby were “an unsafe crowd” and declared “a free arrests zone” to arrest them all after one warning.
Bovino: “They’re getting it here as soon as we leave.”
