It’s time for FIFA to do the honorable thing w Trump’s Peace Prize and upgrade it to a Peacewrap Prize Supreme. That’s where you take the original Peace Prize, wrap it w a larger Peace Prize whose crust has been stuffed w mini Peace Prizes, then fry the whole thing in the rendered fat of children.

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

I've covered ICE / DHS for about a decade now and more ICE agents are willing to talk now than ever before. The confidence the administration is trying to project is absolutely not reflected internally.

This is such an important point. This family tried to follow the rules. The distinction is going to get more important when they start mass deporting the people whose TPS status Trump revoked. They’ll call them “illegal” too, even though they were here legally until Trump yanked the rug.

After MTG lied about me for weeks, she said that she felt bad for my unborn child because he'd have me as a mother. Her rhetoric led to threats against my family. No one, even her, should receive threats like those, but I'd like to see her own up to the role she played in creating them for others.

To put a finer point on this whole thing: "Two people with direct knowledge of the operation" — presumably uniformed military leaders — are accusing the U.S. Secretary of Defense of personally ordering specific war crimes. That's a historic accusation.

Trump is a liar. Tear gassing kids in peaceful neighborhoods makes no one safer. He cannot steal credit from our violence prevention and law enforcement efforts that have reduced crime for four years straight — long before his masked agents showed up. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

DHS takes credit for crime being down in Chicago. Data shows that was happening before they arrived.

Immigration officials on Tuesday said a drop in crime numbers was thanks to their work. Police data show the decrease was taking place before federal agents arrived in the city.

The thing to understand about fascism is that most people you know will be bought off. Bought with promises of peace and stability, bought with business opportunities or paid with actual cash. Most people aren't going to resist. Get used to it and get used to operating in that environment.

This piece gets at something that I've been struggling to articulate: We've seen this exact push-pull before. When Republicans were out of power in the 1990s they invented "political correctness" to pretend they were being censored. Then they went right back to censoring once they had power again.

Kimmel was suspended for offending the president, after coordination between the FCC commissioner and a huge media company. This thread underscores an important, overlooked part of all this: To get his job back, he's been told he must make a contribution to a Christian nationalist organization.

OK, if you're looking for something to do, this is something you can do. This comes from a retired meteorologist who knows how local TV works. Currently recording the WGN Morning News (WGN is Nexstar) and making a list of local advertisers to call later. (Sorry, Joffrey Ballet.)

Ok, I keep getting asked about how to complain about Kimmel.
The best way to complain that will have the biggest impact?
See if you have a Sinclair or nexstar station in your area.
2. Watch the local newscast tonight or some time this week.
3. Note the companies that bought tv adverts.
4. Call them and let them know you will boycott them until they quit supporting that media company.
Trust me. I worked in tv for 45 years. Nothing you do will have greater impact. Nothing. This is a much more effective tool than cancelling Disney.
We did cancel Disney but calling Joe’s Jeep dealership who is buying adds on the local nexstar station will have a BIG impact. Joe doesn’t need that grief. He will find another station to buy adverts on.

Part of the success of “cancel culture” as a meme is that it makes dissimilar activity look the same. Protesting a speaker is not the same as shunning sexual predators is not the same as the federal government silencing dissent.
