Maybe it's just from where I'm sitting, but I really wish the media would stop inviting Mike Johnson (and most Rep reps and senators) on air to lie during the shut down. They should be working, not platformed to spread misinformation. Let them put out press releases.

1. This is one of the most insane statements ever delivered by a presidential spokesperson in U.S. history. Totally disconnected from reality.
2. There is either going to be a civil war or abject Democratic surrender to autocracy. They are telling this you, to your face, in explicit terms.

I swear I'm going to commit more of my energy to this platform. The way the other platforms operate is becoming too much. Too many ads. Too much content I never asked to see put in front of me. Bots galore.

A State Department employee shared with PBS News an image from inside the department. The image includes a piece of paper taped to a mirror with the words, "Colleagues, if you remain: RESIST FASCISM. Remember the oath you vowed to uphold."

The NBA finals could really benefit if the NBA cared to advertise the sport, the players, the skill and talent, and not just parlays and betting lines.

The federally-funded research university is almost surely the single greatest American invention ever.
And it probably has some of the best ROR in federal spending, both in its contribution to the US specifically, but also to the greater world overall.
I doubt anything comes close.
