I asked ChatGPT: What would Fox News anchors have said in 2024 if Joe Biden had announced he was ordering the US Treasury to override "The Coinage Act of 1792" to mint a coin with his face on it? And, well, nailed it... 🎯 @hcrichardson.bsky.social

Trump pushed Kimmel into going full resistance lib for the biggest audience he will ever have. Another masterclass from the president.

Even before the Post's firing of Karen Attiah, I wrote about the unbelievable irony of an unholy war to silence professors, schoolteachers, journalists and others who dare voice their opinions about the murder of Charlie Kirk, the supposed free-speech hero My column www.inquirer.com/opinion/comm...

Too many journalists seem to find it impossible to acknowledge that Kirks’s extremist views, conspiratorial rhetoric, overt racism, and election denial undermined democracy and that his assassination is abhorrent. open.substack.com/pub/contrari...

Got my 2025 Covid and flu vaccinations at CVS in Pennsylvania. Thank you State of Pennsylvania for standing up for public health in the face of RFK’s assault on science and common sense.

Know your rights, Illinois. Stay safe and stay informed.

SCOOP GRADY

In a marathon hearing on Thursday before the Senate Finance Committee, RFK Jr. faced a barrage of questions from senators who were outraged by his recent actions. In some cases, Kennedy appeared to promote flat-out lies.

Tariffs and deportations to boost food prices in 2026? #econsky

Some nattering nabobs were shocked by Friday’s FBI Bolton raid to realize that Trump actually is a fascist after all But he spent all of 2024 telling America exactly how he’d be a dictator- and now is keeping that promise My new column www.inquirer.com/opinion/comm...

CBS didn't start being pro-establishment toadies yesterday. Some of us remember the Smothers Brothers Still, Colbert's ouster feels different. This isn't just capitalism but fascism, and there's no Murrow or Cronkite to cut through the billionaire BS My new column www.inquirer.com/columnists/a...

"Reich citizenship will not be laid in the cradle of every one born in Germany, but will be ceremoniously conferred on him after he has shown himself worthy of it through special accomplishments, through loyal services to the State." NY Times, July 6, 1933.

Senate Ds did fight every step of way, made the bill toxic, forced Tillis to retire, made them vote in broad daylight as bill got worse, nixed some truly awful parts. They need more members. In 2026, vote out every R. That is what the lesson is here.

They’re planning on building a detention center for migrants in the middle of the fetid swamps of Florida. If you think this is something new, the first internment camp they sent me and my family to in 1942 was a barbed wire prison called Rohwer. It was located in the swamps of Arkansas.

"We will measure our success not only by the battles we win, but also by the wars that we end, and perhaps most importantly, the wars we never get into." -- Donald Trump inaugural address, Jan. 20, 2025 The biggest lie ever from the biggest liar in American history

OK, this is how it's done.

When asked in 2024 if mass deportations would harm Florida's agricultural industry, a farmer-legislator confidently said Trump wouldn't actually engage in an indiscriminate mass deportation program. Even if that did happen, he said, there will always be a supply of H-2A workers. (Pub. Oct. 2024)

For "One First," I took a deeper dive into Friday afternoon's *very* significant #SCOTUS Alien Enemies Act ruling—including why it effectively freezes AEA removals for the foreseeable future and its (much) broader potential impact on *all* attempts to bring nationwide challenges to Trump policies:

Baseball's appalling free pass for gambler, tax cheat and alleged statutory rapist Pete Rose isn't just a win for Trump, who pushed for this It's the epitome of Trump's MAGA drive to liberate sexism, racism, and all kinds of gross bad-boy behavior My new column www.inquirer.com/opinion/mlb-...
