The fact that Matthew Dowd lost his job for pointing out Charlie Kirk’s hate speech, while Brian Kilmeade openly suggests we should euthanize the homeless and there is zero outrage, shows exactly what is terribly wrong with today’s political mainstream media.

We have a bit of a natural experiment here. Compare the tone, quantity and duration of Charlie Kirk coverage with that of the two Dem lawmakers gunned down in their homes in Minnesota 6 months ago. May be revealing.

The US Administration is now deleting its internal communications, in brazen violation of the Federal Records Act, in order to conceal its other illegal acts.
Those entrusted to enforce our Congress’s laws sit, simply watching this happen, flaccid and impotent.

A cowardly conservative supreme court shirked their responsibility to rein in gerrymandering years ago. i wrote about it back in 2018, hoping for it to be less relevant nearly a decade later. mattlane.us/stories/mind... #gerrymandering #math

Here's a "geometric" proof that √2 is irrational:
First check that a quotient of real numbers x/y is rational if and only if an x×y rectangle can be 𝑎𝑛𝑡ℎ𝑦𝑝ℎ𝑎𝑒𝑟𝑒𝑡𝑖𝑐𝑎𝑙𝑙𝑦 𝑒𝑙𝑖𝑚𝑖𝑛𝑎𝑡𝑒𝑑: made to disappear by chopping off squares that share a side with what remains of the rectangle. 1/3 🧮

I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy.
I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.
