i genuinely think they make him do this because they know he’s bad at it because he gets bad reviews because it’s bad for his brand and because they’re extremely mad about all his iran leaks.

Every single one of these article is full of the same guy, the person is surprised that Trump acted exactly like he said he was going to act.

People forget that J6 was successful. Everyone who participated was let out of jail and the guy who perpetrated it is President again. There were no consequences. They have plenty of incentive to do a much bigger and worse version.

I’ve covered death row cases for nearly a decade and witnessed several executions. What happened to Christa Pike wasn’t an anomaly. It could happen anywhere. With another execution planned for this week in Texas, let me explain why. THREAD 🧵

NEW: GOP Gov nominee Victor Marx told backers on a Zoom call last night that he doesn't regret slamming his wife into a door to teach her a lesson about self-defense. "I'd do it again," Marx said. Marx says she fake cried and physicality is just the nature of their relationship.

Like guys, the one thing you can’t do in Texas is blame democrats for statewide policy. Good or bad, the republicans did it.

The Abbott ads blaming the democratic nominee for the (very high) Texas property taxes Abbott is responsible for are pretty impressive in a shamelessness way.

Yes, the Trump jujitsu here has been to use the *impression* that Democrats use DOJ to go after their enemies to actually use the DOJ to do that and say - well, lawfare, yadda yadda

"I learned it by watching you" is a far more sophisticated/knowing joke format and I'm sure I use it more frequently, but in terms of pure "famousness," the answer is "This is your brain on drugs" and it isn't even close...

Just a reminder that this is the same Sen. Schmitt who repeatedly claimed that Chief Judge Boasberg was receiving a disproportionate share of Trump-related cases because he confused the D.C. Superior Court (which has 62 judges) with the D.C. district court (which has 15).

I'm not the audience for the Smith hearing, but the main political issue here is that Republicans want the world to know that Smith subpoenaed congressional phone records as he investigated Jan. 6 etc, and nobody outside the Senate can explain to you why that's bad.

So, the Broncos didn't get pressure to force shaky throws, didn't do things to get Jaylen Waddle open, didn't establish the run and maintain patience with it so they could wear down the Jags? OK, then

Making conventional episodes WAS their show! The whole original pitch was, "What if we just made a Star Trek show where the Enterprise visited planets and saved the day every week?" And somehow, it's morphed into... this.

[Sigh. He isn't claiming he was lifted out of the rubble on 9/11. He's claiming he was in the US Steel Building at SOME unclear point post-9/11 when there were still concerns about its structural integrity and people tried to get him to leave. This is probably ALSO a lie. But... come on.]

So here's a quote from @pablo.show that applies to not only his Clippers investigation but the best of what journalism can be: www.nytimes.com/athletic/756...
"I think that we have the ability to do something that the rest of our culture is yearning for, which is make people who are too rich to care about anything resembling the public interest worry that maybe they need to tell us the truth."

Isn’t the grand unifying theory as to why certain things get covered and others don’t end up as “Fox News covered it?” When Fox covers, there is follow-up. When they ignore, it gets lost.

JD Vance told El-Sayed to stop invoking Usha after AES said: "Do we think JD is taking Usha with him back in time to meet Papaw, or no." But it turns out AES offered this *in response* to something vile that JD previously said about how Papaw would have viewed AES: newrepublic.com/article/2149...
