I didn’t listen either, but apparently she called for some sort of congressional hearing with the victims.

A crazy thought, but maybe this is the leading edge of a process being put into motion to eject DJT from office?

(It's the call for Congressional action that makes me think this way. She could have had this same presser without that call to action,)

Earthshine. Beautiful. And a banger tune by Rush…

“Reflected light
To another’s sight
And the moon tells a lover’s story”

Adding to note that the NYT reporting that is out today indicates to me that he is indeed ambitious (he’s absolutely throwing T under the bus), and maybe trying to start a move, but he’s still juiceless.

100%. If Vance had ambition *and* juice, this would be his time to make a move. His biggest hurdle is that he doesn’t have friends in the Senate. He has built zero constituency. He‘s juiceless.

You are 100% correct. Having been a senior technology leader at a global, very well-known mobile ordering early-adopter, I can tell you that there was zero forethought about how introducing those additional ordering channels (delivery too!) might disrupt operations.

So if they aren’t “subject to the jurisdiction thereof,” by what authority were they arrested? 🤔

Mission Control missed a major opportunity to describe the successful TLI as a “sick burn.”

I am 100% supportive of non-stop, 24/7 military helicopter fly-bys of Kid Rock’s house.

I had no idea about that. Good info!

Yep, aware (WA resident for >20yrs).

Do most players actually establish residency in the state of the team they play for? I sort of assumed they mostly didn’t (unless it was a no-income-tax state).

I’m highly confident that building is never going to exist.

If they were truly thinking ahead, they have a contingency plan for that exact situation.

No consideration whatsoever as to how offensive and anti-constitutional this is. Likely the point, actually.

Really, any day that ends in a "y" is suitable.

I truly worry about who is managing cybersecurity at Truth Social. It's a no-brainer that getting control of Trump's Truth Social pseudo-official policy megaphone could be immensely useful to an adversary and cause irreparable harm very quickly.

A picture of a wide-tipped black “Sharpie Magnum”, for use on new currency to obfuscate offensive features.

Indeed, always bringing the rulebook to a gunfight. I hate it.

There was a whole storyline in one of the seasons of Homeland around using the 25th to push out the president, and I kept yelling at the screen “that’s not how that works!”

Not sure she ultimately has the juice, but Spanberger should probably be on the list too.

Hey Lindsey, can you name the Strait that these MEUs have to sail through to get to Kharg?

We really, REALLY need to do something about this whole thing of conducting domestic and foreign policy via social media posts. Truth Social is a third-rate site with questionable security hygiene. I doubt it would be very hard to compromise and take over his account (maybe already done and latent).

If I’m Iran, in at least partial control of what passes through the Strait, the MEU never gets to Kharg in the first place.

I suspect that the rustling we’ve heard on the XVIII ABN Corps side is related to this.

Yep. The sum total of ICE agents is something like less than half of TSA agents who work airport lines, and you can bet your life the number of ICE agents pulled for this will be small enough to not adversely impact other ICE activity. Even in small amounts we should expect bad outcomes though.

Sometimes it’s just a case of having a target that needed to be hit. If you’re forced into an arbitrary number, you’ll inevitably have situations where someone critical is let go simply because they were a little less critical than someone else. It’s a totally shitty situation all around.

Wtf is up with this crew’s absolute fascination with the numerology stuff? Like, what’s so special about being the “9th” fbi director? That’s just a very random bit of data that has no effective bearing on anything whatsoever.

Not crazy. I was wondering the same thing. It’s either sped up, or *they* are sped up.

Endorsed. There are no quiet parts anymore.
