If you were really rounding up and arresting “criminal” illegal immigrants, you wouldn’t need to wear a mask.

I would love to be part of the conversation on MSNBC related to the Kimmel story and it's chilling effects on first amendment, but unfortunately I was terminated by MSNBC for stating that "hateful thoughts lead to hateful words which lead to hateful actions".

Fact check:
mRNA vaccines for respiratory viruses are meant to prevent severe illness (bad Pneumonia).
This means beefing up our immunity in the *lower* respiratory tract, eg the lungs.
Kennedy talks about the *upper* respiratory tract and vaccine efficacy in nonsensical gibberish.

Imagine if the headline were, "Trump refuses to show most basic decency" or "Trump continues to ratchet up tensions in wake of assassination" rather than "we hang on Trump's every word."
President Trump said that he had no plans to call Governor Tim Walz of Minnesota after a man assassinated a state lawmaker there and wounded another over the weekend.
"I think the governor of Minnesota is so whacked out, I’m not calling him," Trump told reporters.

Stephen Miller says they are “actively looking at” suspending the writ of habeas corpus, which is only allowed when the US has been invaded or during an insurrection, which would not allow people to challenge their incarceration in court if they are arrested and detained.

Braedon: I come from a nation that believed in fascist ideology for a while. And we don’t want to go to that again. We are close to it because people want to simplify complex problems. The essence of fascism is to simplify complex problems and feed people who don't have time to read some bullshit.

This is the stuff I'm a doomer about. Real journalism takes time - even a quick, original 700-word story requires a lot of legwork, relationships, etc.
It can never compete with instant slop, or accounts that just plagiarize news for free with more sensationalistic (and wrong) framing.

"Journalism...is built on the economics of attention"
Facts are boring. Conspiracy theories are exhilarating. Besides, fact checks are happening in spaces where the lie consumers aren't. No Fox News, OAN, Newsmax, NY Post, WSJ oped consumer is reading Politifact or Kessler. JFK is alive, after all.

Dear Democrats,
