The Trump administration is using Charlie Kirk’s death as a way to weaponize citizens against each other, its chilling effect suppressing free speech on the left.

The Right (& the Centre) will use the Left's unwillingness to take even slightly unpopular climate action as evidence that climate change isn't happening. The "David Suzuki has a car so global warming is a hoax" argument is a real & widespread thing.

Today we learned that in June the US economy lost jobs for the first time since 2020. We haven’t seen this kind of net job loss since - well, since the last time Trump was in charge.

Remarkable.
MSNC: "I want to reiterate this has been 100% peaceful."
Seconds later, LA County sheriffs start firing on the crowd.
Yet again, "law enforcement" deliberately escalated.

It is actually nuts that even when the NYC political establishment was presented with a broad field of talented candidates w/ many ideas, in a time of generational change & anti-corruption, they STILL chose to line up behind scandal-ridden Andrew Cuomo.
It’s cowardice.

That this is a big controversy is very funny to me. What were you expecting? Propose a duplex for a neighbourhood & the 2nd most cited complaint from NIMBYs will be "our property values will go down". So if you want to create huge opposition to a housing plan, threaten affordable housing.

Excellent piece on Miller on habeas. Far superior to the surprisingly both-sides-ish coverage by some media.
What Miller is claiming the power to do isn’t questionable or dubious. It would be anti-constitutional usurpation.

148. Suspending Habeas Corpus
In response to adverse rulings in numerous immigration cases, Stephen Miller is raising the specter of suspending habeas. His argument is factually and legally nuts, but it's worth explaining *why.*
