Kash Patel now says there’s a manifesto in the Kirk shooting, but it was destroyed, but the FBI can prove it existed using forensic evidence. So Kash wants to reproduce a manifesto that doesn’t exist to reveal the motives of the shooter. Got it.

This is rapidly becoming one of my favorite Trumpisms because there’s no way to explain it short of “the man does not know the meaning of any numbers.”
300 million Americans died last year from drugs. Sure. Whatever.

The last 48 hours have shown why people have stopped relying on legacy journalism and have migrated to independent journalists in droves.
The benefit of legacy journalism is supposed to be “editors” and “factchecking” and they can’t even get that right in a rush to blame trans people.

A friend of mine was on Charlie Kirk's "watch list" of Black professors. She received so many death and rape threats that her university offered her a security detail for the walk to class.
This is Kirk's legacy.
You would never know it from reading all of these legacy newspaper op-eds about him.

Goodbye to a cover story. And the spurious "invasion" claim wasn't just intended to manipulate public opinion; it unlocks presidential powers under the Alien Enemies Act, and has thus been the subject of representations before judges.
NEW: The National Intelligence Council determined in a secret assessment early this month that Venezuela is not directing an invasion of the United States by the prison gang Tren de Aragua, a judgment that contradicts Trump’s public statements

U.S. intelligence contradicts Trump’s justification for mass deportations
The determination is the most comprehensive assessment to date undercutting the president’s rationale for deporting suspected Tren de Aragua members without due process.

Great example - and explanation - of authoritarian propaganda here from Van Hollen, as he explains the lengths that the autocrat Bukele went to in order to influence public perception with those margarita glasses, and how Trump propagated it as well.

A thing press institutions REALLY need to internalize is that 1000x more people will see the headline than read the article. If the headline leaves a false impression, but the article sets it straight, it doesn’t matter. You are spreading misinformation.
The framing from legacy media on the Ms Rachel stuff is insane. Nowhere do they say that these are baseless claims, or that what she said (every child's life is precious and worthy) is not "Hamas propaganda." If u didn't know the background to this story and saw this post, you'd believe their smear
