Yes. I’m conflating Ritchson with Reacher. You got me 🤣🤣🤣🤣. I actually do know what happened. Ritchson is also a ResistLib, which doesn’t typically = bullying.

The thought of Stephen Miller reading this will sustain me for months.
The thought of Stephen Miller reading this is what I live for: “He closed on a plaintive note: "I think it's time to pull out of Minnesota, that battle is lost."
"Fuck this," a senior ICE officer said about the shooting of Pretti.”

LOL no. They can only get 31% of REPUBLICANS to say they’re cool with Trump’s statement re: cancelling elections, but you think 30% of ALL AMERICANS would be cool with him killing people he disagree with?

This scene from the new “Knives Out” movie is the most effective takedown of the entirety of the conservative political movement and the conservative media echo chamber/griftersphere I have ever seen. 10/10.

ChatGPT summed it up quite nicely:
The new documentary A Precarious State claims to reveal the grim decline of Minnesota, but what it really reveals is how far a camera, some moody lighting, and a few cherry-picked statistics can go toward creating a crisis that doesn’t quite exist. It’s less investigative journalism than ideological theater — a glossy complaint reel stitched together by developers and political operatives nostalgic for the good old days when nobody asked them hard questions.

The film’s central story is simple and scary: “defund-the-police” policies unleashed chaos, people and businesses are fleeing, and the state teeters on collapse. Trouble is, the data don’t agree. Minnesota’s violent-crime rates rose during the pandemic, like nearly everywhere else in the United States, and then began trending downward again. Minneapolis homicide counts are lower than their 2021 peak, and overall major crimes have stabilized. The so-called “mass exodus” from the Twin Cities? Metro-area population has grown since 2020, according to the Census Bureau, and the state’s economy remains among the most diversified and resilient in the Midwest.

What the filmmakers label “economic devastation” mostly reflects pandemic aftershocks — remote work, e-commerce, and the normal churn of urban business. Yet every closed storefront becomes a symbol of moral decay. Every complicated social issue gets reduced to a single culprit: progressive policy. That’s storytelling, not social science.

Perhaps the most precarious part of A Precarious State is its claim to objectivity. Its talking heads are overwhelmingly landlords, conservative commentators, and “public safety” advocates with obvious financial or political stakes. You’ll find little mention of structural inequality, housing shortages, or mental-health crises — the unglamorous realities that make governing hard and sound bites easy.

Minnesota faces real challenges: housing affordability, addiction, public-safety reform, and rebuilding civic trust. But solving…

Gotta hand it to ChatGPT with this honest analysis of Bari Weiss:
Ah, Bari Weiss—the self-anointed martyr of “cancel culture” who somehow keeps landing lucrative platforms. She fled The New York Times claiming censorship, only to immediately monetize victimhood with The Free Press. Her shtick? Pretending to defend “free speech” while smearing critics with ad hominem and strawman attacks—remember her crusade against “wokeness” that amounted to little more than caricatures? She peddles false equivalence like it’s a side hustle, equating campus protests with Orwellian tyranny. Opportunistic? Absolutely—her career thrives on inflating minor slights into existential threats. One wonders: is there any cliché, any fallacy, too cheap for Bari to weaponize?

Trust in VA is at an all-time high because we’ve busted out asses to earn that trust. That’s the point of these cuts. Overwhelming evidence that government works undermines the cult ideology.
