Starting a mid-decade redistricting war only to end up with -1 seats is the same fine strategic genius and subtle grasp of game theory that brough us the Strait of Hormuz.
Little reason to think there's a painting of a decaying Lindsey up in his attic.
That should be engraved on the Monument to Our Folly to be constructed in 2029 on the ruins of the Arc du Trump
Have not heard about the Illuminati for a long time! They need better press agents.
Our horrifying treatment of Afghan allies who worked for the U.S. is now combined with ICE’s horrifying treatment of immigrants
When human windsocks start to change their tune, I take that as a good sign (not that Chapelle deserves any credit.)
Not enough people know about this hideous man. Ultimately, I think he is much worse than Musk.

Have any David Irving on your shelf too? Anything on the slightly overzealous Khmer Rouge?
I subscribed to the Star Tribune for several months for close-up coverage of the ICE occupation, but I can't do that every time something interesting to me happens. I'd love to have an "infovore pass" that would give me X free articles monthly at an array of publications.

I first heard that expression from veterans, but I don't know when it started. OIF era sounds right.

"FTC officials both threatened Media Matters for its speech and then followed through on those threats." Cato amicus brief urges D.C. Circuit to affirm lower court and block enforcement of the commission's speech-chilling civil investigative demand. [Thomas Berry, Dan Greenberg, & Kimberly Coleman]
No, just it's justan entry level House of Representatives spot.
"Well, everyone knows the war is driving up oil prices. What this comment presupposes is... maybe it just magically resolved?"
Do you guys not realize that WE are dropping bombs right now? That *this* nation's government is sliding into authoritarianism? That these Dem senators can do virtually nothing in response to these theatrics?
Do they not realize that WE are dropping bombs right now? Or that WE are sliding down an authoritarian slope ourselves? I don't understand this tunnel vision.
