Something should happen to Jeff that strongly convinces him and anyone like him from ever trying this again.

Seeing multiple reports of notable and even locally damaging coastal flooding ongoing already in parts of coastal SoCal. This could get significantly worse this weekend due to TS Rachel.

the thing about impeaching Vought is that it will ruin his life. pull his kids and wife in for sixteen hour depositions. refer them all for perjury. scream in his face. when you're done, if it didn't work, do it again.

amazing -- Karl Rove lists Paxton's scandals: "The corrupt business guy gives him a fake Uber account and the records of that are now in his impeachment proceedings, so we know how often he went to have sex with Laura Olsen. I mean, can you make this shit up?"

I think it’s actually worse than that: The tone here is taunting. The intended audience is supposed to find the idea that Hatian refugees might include doctors, lawyers, or scholars absurd and chuckle along.

We’re talking here about Col. Josh Gaspard, who parachuted into Bashur during the 2003 invasion as a 2LT, then a year in Afg, then company command in surge-era Iraq. His Columbia degrees aren’t even in the “woke” social sciences, they’re in industrial engineering and engineering management systems.

Bel was one of the Ohioans that Vance demagogued in 2024. He was one of the people who Vance targeted with a blood libel. And now he is dead because of the consequences of that libel. I would like to ask Vance about him.

Much like with the Buttigieg story, I have a LOT of questions about the choices made by the “child protective” authorities here!
In Texas, an online sleuth named Amy became convinced that Annabelle was actually a missing child named Lisa Irwin who was abducted six years earlier in Kansas City, Mo., 250 miles from Granite City. Witnesses had seen a man carry a baby down the street after midnight, and Amy believed that man was Greg. She published facial comparison photographs of Annabelle and Lisa Irwin and theorized that Greg's lawn care business was actually "convenient cover," a way of prospecting for targets.
Amy dug up a clip of a CNN reporter who had found graffiti of a pentagram and the words "Freak for Life" in a drainage tunnel close to where Lisa Irwin was abducted.
Given that Greg's channel was called Toy Freaks, this was the final proof Amy needed.
She called the police."They came in like a SWAT team," Greg said.
"They searched the whole house, went through the kitchen cupboards, opened the washer and dryer. All this while my kids were there. Family services showed up, wanting me to prove that the children were who I said they were. I had to show them birth certificates. I couldn't believe some woman from Texas could call them with a made-up story and this would happen."
Greg was ordered to take his daughters to the local child-welfare department. When they arrived, the officers led Greg one way and the girls the other. They were questioned: "Does your father ever beat you? Does he touch you inappropriately?"
They were let go, but the incident left its mark. "Watching them being led away that day," Greg said, "I've never recovered from that."

On an individual level they have not succeeded in blocking access to vaccines. But they have seeded enough doubt and misinformation that too many people now reject vaccines and that is having horrible consequences.

If the next Dem admin doesn’t do a big tariff rollback because of regional special interests they’ve made a massive error. You have to hit these protected businesses and convince them to never allow this madness to happen again.

The median Republican Congressman sincerely believes in Donald Trump and thinks he is doing good things for the country and cares about him more than the petty local concerns of powerful people in his district or his personal power. This is a fucking disaster.

A very positive sign that, nearly a year after Kirk's death, many if not most of the people punished for speaking truthfully about him have won legal cases against their former employees and compensation. Again, panicked compliance with Trumpism has only *cost* institutions.

I think the core problems for foreign understanding of this is a) americans are insanely uncurious about the rest of the world relative to basically any other developed nation and therefore b) foreigners interact with americans representing the top 0.5% of american understanding on foreign stuff
