One question I keep having is how many people a year are prosecuted for lying on ATF form 4473 strictly about drug use? Have looked for hours and yet to find stories about that. I see lots involving lying about prior felonies, but not a one about only drug use. @emptywheel.bsky.social

Here is a gift link to the article. Bennet really highlighted how the media is enabling Republicans here. @bennet.senate.gov should have a fun conversation. 😀 econ.st/4awkskV

Normally enjoy James Bennet's Lexington articles at @economist.com , and even this one I agreed with 80% of it. But I think he really showed the same blind spot we see in so much of the media by equivocating between Hunter pardon and the Jan 6 pardons. Blaming Dems for GoP weaponizing of DOJ.

Have to admit the funniest part of the Trump fever dream about Canada joining the US is that the 40 million people would be one state. They understand the problem of adding 8 median population (4.5m) states to the mix that expect govt healthcare.

Have been catching up on one of my favorite podcasts 'You are Not so Smart' #YANSS with @davidmcraney.bsky.social lately, but adding a new nonfiction book to read every other episode is becoming a bit overwhelming. 😀

Just hear me out... But maybe www.rottentomatoes.com should consider adding something so that propaganda films don't end up in their Verified Hot list. Especially given that the creator has retracted big portions of the evidence provided due to pending defamation lawsuits.

Bsky is going to have to get the bot situation under control sooner rather than later. Not as bad as Xitter yet, but seems like it will get there quickly.
