How is TJ Maxx not getting in on "looksmaxxing," riding it hard for a fiscal quarter of advertising campaign, then walking away with the satisfaction of having murdered the trend.

So the media is a bunch of villainous Jews and Trump is Jesus. I fully expect the NYT to sanewash this antisemitic lunacy. So far, they’re ignoring it.

Spielberg teases new alien film 'Disclosure Day' as 'more truth than fiction' Steven ​Spielberg described his 1977 UFO film "Close Encounters of the Third Kind" as ‌his own "speculation" about intelligent life on other planets.

I can connect journos who HMU with #kuexperts on Spielberg, Greek drama (Chris Nolan's "Odyssey" hits screens in July). I'll even tell you my own Spielberg story.

Inside Trump’s Effort to “Take Over” the Midterm Elections When Trump tried to overturn the 2020 election, the institutional guardrails of American democracy held. But if faced with the same tests today, those barriers — and people who held the line — would l...

A @propublica.org investigation pinpointed at least 75 people across federal agencies who stood up to protect the integrity of the 2020 election.

Today, nearly all of those people are gone, having resigned, been fired, or been reassigned, esp. at DOJ and DHS.

I've seen respected columnists using AI to add cartoons to their posts. Please stop- first of all, it's garbage. Secondly, most editorial cartoonists would be happy if you included their work with your posts. Just ask them for permission.

The Posse Comitatus workaround: ICE expands into domestic policing Congress gave ICE a $75 billion budget with few strings attached, allowing it to operate beyond its intended scope and bypass traditional checks on power, raising constitutional concerns.

I think this is correct. Congress gave Trump the personalist, violent paramilitary force he's always wanted, but without the statutory hurdles, internal accountability, resistance from the courts, and institutional pushback that would come with deploying the actual military.

The USPS can't "run out of money," the sole question is the people in charge of the federal government believe delivering mail is worth funding the same way they already fund armed kidnapping gangs, concentration camps, and blowing up girls' schools.
