The Minnesota Vikings are 2-0. Their kicker, Will Reichard, is personally 2-0.

We spend so much money on the military — how is it possible that a couple months of relatively low-level warfare can deplete our munitions? Seems with what we spend, we oughta have a pretty big stockpile.

More people have been detained for touching Trump’s green water algae pond than have ever been arrested or detained for touching children in the Trump - Epstein files.

Now deleted Twitter post from Debra Lea @thedebralea. It reads Shooter at WH Correspondence dinner. Shooter is dead. Thank you secret service.

Under it is a selfie of her making a kissy-face at the camera while everyone mills around with the energy of a minor fire alarm

Anyway. I’m glad nobody was hurt and I’m sure the journalists who attended the WHCD will not center themselves and their personal experiences and instead remain focused on holding the powerful accountable and informing the people about their government.

Happy Confederate Surrender Day from Minnesota where we still have your goddamn flag and we’re not giving it up. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/28th_Vi...
The 28th Virginia battle flag is a Confederate battle flag that belonged to the 28th Virginia Infantry Regiment. Captured by the 1st Minnesota Infantry Regiment at the Battle of Gettysburg, the flag was brought to Minnesota and exhibited at the state's capitol for several years before passing into the permanent collection of the Minnesota Historical Society after 1896 where it has remained since.

really can't be said enough that this case was decided by the same court that decided plessy v. ferguson. if they could have found a plausible rationale to limit birthright citizenship they would have done it. but there is none! the text is as clear as constitutional language can be.

Wait, the Trump admin fights for ICE to wear masks but demands that STUDENT PROTESTERS show their faces? “In its March 2025 letter, the Trump administration demanded a mask ban for protesters… [at Columbia]”

Better yet, just send ICE over there to fight the war themselves. Tons of money, with military-grade arms they do not need for immigration enforcement, and a bunch of goons begging for a fight.

I’ve really lost interest in the NBA. So much media coverage is not about games and athletic skill. It’s who has a tradeable contract, which teams are over the second apron, what’s the luxury tax, how many unprotected 2032 draft picks do we have. And on and on.

This cannot be something a civilian law enforcement agent is allowed to wear in the US — and an agency that has a culture that tolerates this cannot be saved.

The people who need to hear this won’t ever get it. Under Biden, we were making serious, significant, long term investments in 21st Century manufacturing. We were targeting money to Rust Belt places that haven’t voted for a Democrat in 2 generations. Now those long term plans may never play out.

Over the last 50 years, rural America decided it would rather buy everything at Walmart than at locally owned businesses. You can defend that as an individual economic decision, & indeed it was forced on them to an extent. But however you balance that scale, the societal costs have been monumental.
