I think one of the broadcast networks should make @timmiller.bsky.social their principal nightly news anchor because he would bring back 1970s levels of ratings to the biz
"Why does he keep doing this to himself? It's like masochism. He's going to keep going on and trying to claim that he's a farmer?"

Tim Miller and Bill Kristol discuss Scott Bessent repeatedly alleging he's a soybean farmer.

When I joined the UW Biology department in 2001, everyone else had a nice nameplate on their office door — but I got a piece of paper with my name on it taped to the wall.

It was a newly implemented cost-saving measure, I was told.

You cheap-ass bastards, I thought.

Anyway, now I feel better.

The ICE agents did not care that he had a driver's license or service card. They also did not know or care about the fact his family, like many of us, has a 400-year history here in New Mexico. Their only concern was his last name — a very common Hispanic last name.
A brush with ICE: Be prepared to prove citizenship
Last weekend my sister-in-law’s brother — both are originally from New Mexico — was heading to Oklahoma to take care of some business. He thought he was going through a

I would have asked, “Mr. Musk, do you think that someday it will be feasible to construct a ketamine factory on Mars to ensure a sufficient supply for mankind?”
Musk tried to shut down CBS from asking about anything other than "spaceships"

This only becomes more important with the gutting of the administrative state by Supreme Court ruling, DOGE, and general assault on the practice. And of course it has a partisan salience, as one party is invested in a functional government while the other prefers rule by lackeys and goons.

All presidencies are government by delegation but the fundamental premise of the office is that the person elected is present enough to be aware of how they're delegating & to course correct if an underling fucks up. We're now on at least our second, probably third term where that presence is absent

Trump is their court jester, their chaos machine. He's an ignorant moron who only revels in camera lights, cosplaying being President & Emperor. While he's puffing out his chest & spewing lies and nonsense on camera and everyone is watching him, the P2025 gang and Musk are destroying the country.
Nothing interferes with tee time for Trump - certainly not something as picayune as U.S. military personnel risking their lives. Mike Sorrell provides a well-researched breakdown of where Trump was during the planning of strikes on Houthi terrorists.
Trump is usually somewhere else when decisions are made
That somewhere is a green field with 18 little holes in it

Everything this fucking guy does benefits Putin.
Kseniia Petrova, a Russian scientist at Harvard Medical School, was detained at Logan Airport after returning from France and sent to an ICE detention in Louisiana, The Insider reports.

A big critic of Putin and the war in Ukraine, she may now be deported to Russia.
