This is the first Thanksgiving for Sophie & Colin Hortman without their parents, Minnesota state Rep. Melissa Hortman and Mark Hortman who were assassinated along with the family dog in an act of political murder. National guards troops were not deployed to the state in response.

the starkest case of mutually-assured destruction i've ever seen
So Olivia Nuzzi is clearly a piece of shit who can never work in journalism again after this.
And, also, Ryan Lizza is clearly a piece of shit who should never work in journalism again after this either.
We're all agree on that, right?

Trump is a demented, sundowning easily manipulated felon, who rambles and threatens others to get his way. He's staggeringly unqualified for office

To be clear Lizza’s story is that Nuzzi sat on important matters of national significance for personal benefit and he’s sat on these details until he could personally benefit.
All of DC media needs to be thrown into the sea. Anyone who defends these people is a goddamn clown.

I remember how hard the "hit piece" on Biden hit. For what Nuzzi has done as revealed in this anecdote alone, she should be run out of journalism. Want more proof? Go to the link that's provided above. Both amazing & devastating stuff.

The number of immigrants in detention without criminal records has surged by over 2,000% since Trump reentered the White House.
Nearly half of all detainees have no criminal charges or conviction.
Trump was always lying about going after the “worst of the worst.”

It is also an orchestrated tragedy by a president hellbent on creating a tinder box environment across the country.

This is exactly the sort of thing that is going to require people to go to jail for a very long time if we are to avoid this ever happening again. We're going to be told we need to move on. We've been told that every time since ~1865. Which is why the crises keep happening.

Noem decided not to turn deportation flights around after judge’s order, DOJ says
The flights, this past March, have become a flashpoint in President Donald Trump’s mass deportation strategy, and his administration’s pattern of apparently defying court orders.
