I really wish journalists would ask better follow up questions like: “Why do you single Sen. Omar out as not needing the information instead of, say, Sen. Klobuchar?”

Press them! Make them double down or retreat from such untenable statements.
Raju: "Why not give everybody the access to this information that could inform their key votes?"

Sen. Markwayne Mullin: "Because there's a lot of members that's going to walk out of there that's going to leak…Do you think [Ilhan] Omar needs all this information? I will say no."

So it’s a monopoly if a movie studio owns movie theaters, but not if a (digital) movie theater owns movie studios?

👌🏻 very cool.

Change this story to be an Islamic student gesturing vaguely at the Quran in defense of restricting women’s rights and watch the far right support evaporate. It’s definitely not about religious freedom either.
There is a well coordinated national campaign targeting a single trans professor at Oklahoma University to get her fired. It's part of a broader campaign to push trans people out of public life entirely. It was never about sports.

Honestly, I found this article a bit sexist. Few people question how healthy it is for a man to hit the gym or get involved in sport to cope with life, yet when there’s an outlet for the forty year old mother of two to vent her anger and frustration, hands are wrung and pearls are clutched.

Trump can’t even remember four words so there’s no chance he wrote a foreword.

The legend of Emperor Nero playing his fiddle while Rome burned before him is most likely fabricated to some extent, probably by his or Rome’s political enemies. Now we have a president boasting on the public record about his (gaudy) interior designs as his people starve. Yet historians may wonder.
Trump won’t stop posting about the bathroom!

The thing with designating a group that doesn't actually exist as a terrorist organization is that they can then say anyone they want is a part of that group.

The FBI gutted its extremism analysts in February. They most certainly would have advised him not to read the writings of a killer live on air as it could easily inspire future violence.

Exclusive: FBI scales back staffing, tracking of domestic terrorism probes, sources say
The FBI has cut staffing in an office focused on domestic terrorism and has scrapped a tool used to track such investigations, in a shift that could undermine law enforcement’s ability to counter white supremacists and anti-government extremists, according to sources familiar with the matter.

“There will be times when the struggle seems impossible. I know this already. Alone, unsure, dwarfed by the scale of the enemy. Remember this. Freedom is a pure idea. It occurs spontaneously and without instruction. Random acts of insurrection are occurring constantly throughout the galaxy.”

Not only is the president violating our laws and constitution he’s straight up violating the Declaration of Independence. Revolutionary.
The possibility of abduction by a sovereign and imprisonment abroad is one criterion that separates democracies from dictatorships.

The Declaration of Independence called the British king tyrannical for transporting Americans, “beyond Seas to be tried for pretended Offenses.”

It’s remarkable how quickly vast numbers of RINOs have vanished as Republicans actively hunt this species of creature to the brink of extinction. In previous years, they could be seen grazing in many places around the marshy Potomac, but now the muddy fields are nearly empty.

It’s far too soon to ascribe responsibility for the horrific DC plane collision, but it’s not too soon to say that dismantling the safeguards afforded by a functioning federal government put us at significant risk. And it’s irrefutable that, since January 20th, we are all less safe.
