Q: Mike Rogers called for an end to the trade war with Canada. Did he speak to you before he made that announcement? TRUMP: Well I viewed it as though he wanted Canada to make a deal

Al Gore made a fundraising call from inside the White House and Republicans threw a fit for months and months. The media genuinely believed they were sincerely offended by this breach of protocol.

you have a maniac who sees nonwhite kids at a Texas game and loses his mind, and you have the entire architecture of the American Right (notably, excluding numerous members of the GOP who might have to get votes someday) giving it full voice because they firmly believe that these views are *good*.

I agree that it makes logical sense for Trump to have been making a less-offensive, less-insulting point about *saving* Los Angeles and San Diego from being nuked rather than saying it would be no big deal if we were nuked. Except that's not what he actually said?

Just a reminder: Tillis persuaded the woman Hegseth allegedly raped to come forward with her story, and told her that if she did, it would sink the nomination. She did. At great risk to herself. Tillis then cast the deciding vote for Hegseth. Because he’s a goddamned coward.

If we're going to denaturalize and deport people for sex trafficking they hid on their citizenship applications, is there a reason this would not apply to Ghislaine Maxwell?
CHILD SEX ABUSER’S CITIZENSHIP REVOKED AFTER NATURALIZATION FRAUD CONVICTION
 
Cyril Domaquik Clemens, a Liberian native, was convicted of three counts of indecent liberties with a child after confessing to sexually molesting a young child.
 
The abuse began before he naturalized, but he concealed it during the citizenship process, fraudulently obtaining U.S. citizenship.

the crazy part is that if you build strong safety cultures rooted in anticipating and avoiding real-time, real-world harms, you don't often find yourself blindsided by unanticipated X risks... this isn't a zero sum choice, and safety culture hasn't emerged randomly or by accident

this isn't some abstract argument either: all of our decades of experience with large, complex safety-critical systems shows that building a safety culture is the only way to manage and mitigate risk responsibly... and that's impossible to reconcile with a longtermist utilitarian perspective
