I heard the odious Jeff Dye slammed me on “Gutfeld.” I’m honored. If you go on that show you’re a pro-fascist hack. Gutfeld himself is a greedy power hungry unfunny putz who appears on The Five every day, which is a panel of racist hate-mongering white supremacists complaining about the word woke.

Trump said “I don’t know” if he has to uphold the constitution. For my entire life, Republicans have pretended to be obsessed with the constitution. If they do nothing now, we will know they were lying about that too.

Trump, asked if he has to 'uphold the Constitution,' says, 'I don't know'
Trump said on NBC News’ “Meet the Press” that he’s following lawyers’ advice as he tries to execute rapid deportations, arguing that giving immigrants due process is time-consuming.

This the misrepresentation of colleges/universities the Right has been telling for your years and the NYT just repeats like it true. At best, it is a cherry picked to be correct, at worst just a lie. For example: 41% of Harvard seniors in '23 went into finance or consulting. 4% public service

Marriott’s CEO said it straight: “We welcome all… we create opportunities for all… that’s who we are as a company.” He went back to his hotel to find 40K emails from Marriott associates worldwide saying “thank you.” Plenty of CEOs talk. Capuano showed up. Marriott still has my business.

Yall wanna hear something extremely embarrassing? Before Trump’s election, a bunch of academics who lumbered rightward after being criticized by the left (Pinker, Dawkins, Krauss) wrote essays for a book that is coming out in July about the threats to academia from the left. YALL, THE TITLE!!

no lies detected. #civilrights
The image shows a text post from a tumble user with the handle "theconcealedweapon" making an argument about the importance of protecting the rights of criminals as a safeguard against government tyranny. The post presents the following key points:

If you want to prevent government tyranny, ensuring criminals have rights must be your top priority
This is not meant as a joke or exaggeration
Without rights for criminals, governments can simply label people as criminals to strip away their rights
The post claims this has been a common tactic of tyrannical governments throughout history
The post concludes that believing people who break laws should forfeit their rights is effectively supporting tyranny

The argument centers on the idea that due process and legal protections for accused/convicted persons are fundamental safeguards against authoritarian government overreach.

The sigh I just sighed
And what has White done with his unusual level of creative control? He has made the first great work of art in the post-“woke” era. He treats his characters as individuals, rather than stand-ins for their identity groups—and he insists on plot points that would unnerve a sensitivity reader.

Important note about this breakthrough: Literally would not exist without the kind of Federal support the current administration is slashing. Took 15+ years of research at a federal lab (Lawrence Berkeley) to get this to a point at which private enterprise could take over and make these at scale.

They’re microwaving this take for the 6th time while doing their best to avoid coverage of conservatives obliterating unions, jobs, and dignity for working and middle class men. I’m sick of the Atlantic’s obsession with aesthetics over substance. It’s a self-fulfilling prophesy.
