I feel like I am taking crazy pills. Charlie Kirk’s ultimate goal, which he said time and time again, would have been the suppression, through threat of violence and the use of state power, of the rights of those he disagreed with, including freedom of expression.

We should be having a debate about how British incompetence put the lives of thousands of Afghans at risk. Instead we're having a debate about 'how many criminals they let in'. Tells you everything you need to know about where we're at as a country inews.co.uk/opinion/tori...
Shockingly, the Tories did the right thing on secret Afghan asylum plan
The initial error was egregious, but the response was, at least, morally clear-sighted and practical

Friendly reminder to American colleagues that "Tell the law enforcement to cover their faces and remove identification; that'll make ordering them to punch opposition lawmakers and pepper spray protesters easier" was in the Hungarian/Polish antidemocratic playbook on page 42 all along.

Even *if* you accept Stephen Miller’s (textually, historically, and morally indefensible) claim that undocumented immigrants are not entitled to due process, you’d *still* need due process to ensure that the individuals at issue are, in fact, undocumented.
His argument fails even on its own terms.

Just 3 hours after arriving, Vance & his wife depart Greenland. And they never even left the military base.
For a country as hospitable as Greenland, it is a remarkable feat to be so loathed you can’t leave the airport.
Another staggering waste of taxpayer dollars.

In 1862, a Union soldier found cigars wrapped in a piece of paper in a field of clover. The paper was a copy of Confederate Gen. Lee's invasion orders. The Southern sloppiness helped the Union stop Lee at Antietam.
It's unknown who lost the orders in the field, or if he was related to Pete Hegseth.
