Google, why is Chris Isaak in Silence of the Lambs?
The Foster Brooks doctrine.
Glad he’s stepping down. Even though the emails in question were strictly about business, why did he send so many of them even after Epstein’s initial conviction and prison sentence
The famous “crazy ex” school of diplomacy.
To say nothing about declaring them part of an axis of evil, surrounding them on two sides against the advice of senior military leaders, then being mad when they lend support to the inevitable insurgencies—all in response to 19 guys with box cutters from Saudi Arabia.
But sure. Revenge.
I'd go as far as to say this is the view of the average GWOT veteran. Catharsis for a past failed war by starting a new one, strategic end state be damned, we're just gonna do it because we are having feelings.

Marcelo Gomes da Silva, the Milford teen detained by ICE last year, had high hopes for his visit to Washington, D.C., but was reportedly escorted out of the Capitol chamber after the Department of Homeland Security posted on social media targeting him.
Hardest working man in the government.
Pretty amazing that comms person at FBI called my @ms.now colleague @kendilanian-nbc.bsky.social a liar and demand a correction only for Kash to post a photo from the locker room
OK, dude. Neither ICE nor Cartel Hitmen should wear masks. I want to be intellectually consistent to avoid being owned by Based Mike.

The reason we're here is that tens of millions of people will punch a hole in a wall if they hear someone used food stamps to buy soda but they're fine if the right-wing podcaster turned fbi director uses his taxpayer funded private jet to go party whenever he feels like it bsky.app/profile/thed...
We did the SIGINT for them.
How's your day going, Trump?
Oh:
👀👀👀👀
VARNEY: You said economists behind a NY Fed study saying 86% of tariff burdens falls on US businesses & consumers should be disciplined. What's your issue?
HASSETT: Yeah, I probably got a little emotional when I said that & I regret if the people who wrote the study feel I personally attacked them
The United States may be required to refund billions of dollars to importers who paid the IEEPA tariffs, even though some importers may have already passed on costs to consumers or others.
The dissenting justices in the 6-3 tariffs decision write:
"The United States may be required to refund billions of dollars to importers who paid the IEEPA tariffs, even though some importers may have already passed on costs to consumers or others."
Majority opinion appears silent on the issue.
The “disclaimer” for a piece like this should come at the beginning, not end. It should be clear from jump that the story is imagined rather than based on factual accounts.
When I’ve written stories that push readers into constructed POVs, they’re framed as imagined up front—or labeled opinion.

Okay, maybe you really are thinking about how you love your wife while writing poems about Olivia Nuzzi harvesting your cum, but it doesn’t matter: fuck off with the Valentine’s Day sentiment, you’re a mass killer.
Lies. I’ve been waiting 8 months for a dental appointment.
Fuck this goober.
thank you to the thousands of people who have posted, commented, private messaged, texted, and phoned to offer condolences over yesterday morning’s passing of my wife Claudia Long. I deeply regret that I can only reply to the smallest fraction of you, but I want you to know that ... [1/2]
They censored her. But I’m pretty sure she said FUCK ICE
This is Twitter 2018 brain. Let me totally invent some shit the person never said, throw it in quotation marks, and share it. Grow the fuck up.
So the government's only actual values are "child sacrifice"?
Is that what we're learning?
MINNESOTA — Mom goes outside to warm up her car, ICE grabs her: "Please, my car kids are all alone in the house!”
So nothing has changed and Homan was just to put a new face on the cruelty, got it

Klobuchar: "Somehow 50,000 peaceful protesters in 10 below weather were able to march without any problems, and then the next day half a dozen ICE and CBP agents couldn't handle a guy with a cell phone taking video of them and shot him. I think it's pretty obvious what's going on here."
