Former state House Speaker Mark Rozzi (D-Berks) said he wore a bulletproof vest for several months in 2022 when he was the target of a politically motivated stalker.

Every so often I remember that Mike Lee is a direct descendant of early Mormon John D. Lee, who was convicted and executed for leading the Mountain Meadows Massacre, after he initially tried to blame the murders on Native Americans en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mountai...

"Miasma. Mee. Azzzz. Muh. Folks,"

I'm sorry, what?

News: The Washington Post has suffered a cyber intrusion that compromised the emails of at least several reporters at the paper, including those on the national security and economic policy teams, according to people familiar with the matter.

Our collective refusal to grapple with the right wing origin of so much political violence — especially the embrace of vehicular manslaughter — has led to copycats like this guy in Virginia.

Hi everyone I was denied entry, detained, and deported from the USA over the last 48 hours because of my reporting on the Columbia student protests I arrived back in Melbourne hours ago and had my phone handed back to me upon landing

A chance to reminisce about the time Musk bit on the right wing conspiracy theory about Pelosi's husband and a Twitter employee called him a halfwit to his face. He's only gotten worse since then

I see His Holiness has been stewing on the White Sox losing in extra innings yesterday

Thinking of the GIs today

@msnbc.com reporter at the 1:15 mark. “The chaos you’re seeing is not the result of peaceful protestors, it’s the result of actions of law enforcement, specifically the Los Angeles sheriff’s department.” #nokings

I desperately want to meet the O-4 who watched Kelly's Heroes for "research" on this

One big point of Jeffrey Toobin’s excellent book on McVeigh is how much harder it was for him to find like-minded people in the pre-social media and Internet age. But his descendants have been able to do this easily, and it’s a game changer.

Been thinking a lot lately about the coffeehouses antiwar vets ran near bases during Vietnam

Minnesota State Senator John Hoffman's wife Yvette Hoffman, threw herself in front of the couple's daughter when they were attacked by gunfire. According to KARE 11's reporting, a bullet nearly missed Senator Hoffman's heart and his wife is in better condition as she had no organs pierced.

Is it just me or is no one really saying “Antifa” anymore?

The violence reported is that two people drove their cars into protesters.

I think the key to understanding every soldier's lack of caring in this parade is to know that this is a three-day-weekend for most of the rest of the Army, in honor of the Army's birthday.

Yeah yeah the entire idea of a parade is dumb and militaristic. All true. But it’s still the Army’s 250th and they knew months ago it was going to be televised. It was still a chance to highlight the Army itself. It was still a huge opportunity for them. And wow did they whiff.

In fairness to the Army, only sadists and savants love drill. I of course excelled at it, being one of the latter

Big day for the online "tank/not a tank" wars

Look, bashing the Army is my default as a Navy vet. But after watching a bit of this, their drill sergeants should probably all be drill PFCs

One block over from the White House: the aspirational security line setup

Figures, the one day I actually want to know what it's like in Hegseth's group chats

Re-upping this!

Who does right-wing media claim is “funding” the immigrant rights anti-ICE protest? Stay with me… Radical jihadist are funneling money from Qatar to Mexican drug cartels, international bankers are funneling money to left-wing groups, and Chinese communists are funneling money to organized labor…

how is this real life www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

Had a civil but troubling conversation with two 60-something vocal Trump supporters in the hometown bagel place. Both said Trump critics were "radical leftist Democrats" forcing kids to be gay and trans. One was more sanguine about civil war than reaching unity, saying "We can all get our guns"

It's an illegal use of active-duty troops to enforce domestic policy, it's been a key foundation of our system of laws for 150 years, indeed a blatant disregard for the law, & that's how every headline should describe it.

what

That there’s a headline.

Execs from the company that helped foment a genocide are now taking their expertise to the US Army.
