Regardless of your thoughts on Musk, he has significant business interests in China. Why the fuck is he getting this briefing?

Congrats to the White House correspondents who failed to stand in solidarity with the AP and now get to stand by their new peer, a dipshit podcaster and Putin stooge. Dont complain, you earned this.

If you accept that non-citizens have no right to due process, you are accepting that citizens have no right to due process. All the government has to do is claim that you are not a citizen; without due process you have no chance to prove the contrary.

Witkoff was a fool for joining that chat from Moscow. But the entire charlatan national security team also chose to put him on that chat when they knew (or should have known) that he was in Moscow. A spy novel based on this level of cretinous behavior would be unbelievable.

It seems ICE had a quota for Venezuelan gang members & filled it by picking up people with tattoos. Rose, hummingbird, soccer, mother, Autism awareness. For that people are taken from their families & sent to spend the rest of their lives in horrifying conditions. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

It's critical for everyone to remember what an Executive Order is. It is the President communicating orders to members of the executive branch. Policies to pursue, actions to take, etc. They are not laws. They are not close to being laws. They are formalized memos to employees. That's all.

ICYMI, @propublica.org uncovered Project 2025 training videos last summer. And here’s where they discuss how to evade FOIA & hide their agenda from the public. The “Houthi PC small group” didn’t arise from ignorance of the law or incompetence. They just got caught.

I always hated the "this is the greatest country in the world" refrain, but it is striking to me that the things they are killing in government — an unrivaled scientific research enterprise, incredible public lands, etc — are some of the only things that made such a statement vaguely defensible.
