Their only housing plan really was mass deportation.

Somehow were to believe that in a just society, being police should allow cops to be less accountable for their actions. Granting LEOs and military the rights of “super-citizens” may actually be more worrying that the militarization of police.

Same problem exists with any action the admin might take in Iran. And in that case, putting an American face on ops could damn the overthrow to failure.

Once did a background on a DEA employee who was an exotic dancer on weekends. it was public trust, not natsec, so no actual clearance..

Um… That’s not her kuleana.

Who the hell writes stuff like this?

Damn, Ed!

As I was saying, Adam O’Neal said he didn’t care about losing subscriptions. Oops.

It’s the chaos, baby. And the Trump administration is addicted to it.

Weird. Was just talking about this decision an hour ago.

Adam O’Neal basically said he didn’t care about losing subscriptions when he became editorial page editor. Oops, motherfucker.

One of my favorite follows, even when I disagree with him.

Posted yesterday, but Stieb’s still correct.

Rand Barnett, is that you?

Really, man. what they mean when they say “don’t tread on me” is “don’t tread on ME. You? I don’t care about you.”

Major Pete just LOVES himself war crimes, so his take tracks. Anyhow, he’s just champing at the bit to kill himself some Libz.

It’s ok guys… Bill Melugin was told by DHS that the vic had a pistol on him. Showed a picture of it on a car seat and everything… /s

Mind you this is the “most productive Congress ever” per our constitutional lawyer Speaker of the House.

As I said at the time of his election, he won 2016 + NV and was under 50% for the popular vote. It was malpractice for any pundit to argue that Trumpism won or that he won the culture war. It wasn’t Reagan ‘84. It wasn’t another in a series of 50/50 elections.

I think @crampell.bsky.social was beating this drum while she was still at WaPo. Even though these people had legal status from 2021 through 2024, this admin is revoking the status which creates more “illegal” immigrants. Kind of sick, really.

Well… All House Dems are running. Thats how the thing works.

Not linking to the piece because I don’t want to, but you would think that the Washington DC newspaper would be a little bit more alarmist at the administration violating the 4th Amendment. So much for personal liberty and free markets.

Wait. No Master’s? And he was promoted to O5? How was he even competitive?

He should have won years ago just for CONGO. “STOP EATING MY SESAME CAKE!”

It would be helpful if the media pointed out that the the prize is awarded for actions in the previous year. Also, although there are exceptions like TR, the prize tends to be given to those who agree to peace, not those who broker peace.

Now this is good. Add in some criticisms on his immigration policies and tactics and it would be perfect.

Dude’s journey from center-right normie to this has been fascinating to watch. Bro. You don’t even go to this school.

It’s not as exciting, but this is correct. More importantly, focusing on the bad vibes of the economy is a way to extend the conversation so that it includes all of the shitty policies and corruption.

As @gregsargent.bsky.social said, the story that Trump was concerned about optics was, and always will be, bullshit. They truly believe that Americans will applaud the aggressive, unconstitutional actions of a paramilitary force operating in US cities.

It’s sometimes incredible how short of a memory even the Trump team has. They ran a hardcore anti-immigration op in Term I which turned folks against his enforcement actions. Why would they think it would be different? I mean other than the MSM declaring Trump’s 50/50 win being Reagan ‘84.

Impeachment, removal, indictment… Unfortunately that requires Making Impeachment Great Again.

Why do they all end up sounding like Trump?

New demand from WaPo; When the Ed board takes a stance 180 degrees opposite from what the board typically took, then identify who wrote it. And again, the Metro DC area has no paper representing the people who actually live there.

Sandy’s in the early evening… A beautiful day.

Agree with Tod on this. The destruction of civil society followed by, “oops. My bad…” isn’t enough.

STG made our library look cool.

Pretty sure it’s time for Congress to pass legislation preventing Presidents from being plaintiffs in personal lawsuits.

Incredible. It’s not immigration driving the shitty numbers on the economy. It’s the shitty economy driving the numbers on immigration. Not saying that the immigration policies are good. They’re awful and chaotic. Just pointing out that a shit economy taints everything else.

I might have the players wrong, but I think it was Josh Blackman that said, nah. And the case regarding emoluments just kind of quietly went away when SCOtUS decided that it was irrelevant since Trump was out of office.

When I last saw Pat Metheny at the Honolulu Blue Note, he opened with a medley that began with “Better Days Ahead” and ended with “This is Not America”. Always assumed it was intentional. Any how, sha-la-la-la-la..

Well, this just escalated.

Every outlet claims to have the inside scoop of the Trump admin, but in the end, they all come across as gullible fools. Just take a look at all of the pubs that credulously repeated the PJ 2025 denials. Worst part is no introspection.

The question is whether the numbers are set or whether he can recover. Admin may regret that they thought that the narrow victory in 2024 (2016 + NV/less than 50% NPV) gave them cart blanche to focus on other priorities before affordability.

It’s good that the editorial board is calling the president out on this, but this is a poorly written piece that sanitizes the degree to which Trump’s inflation claims are bullshit.

When I was a dependent growing up in Germany, you were able to get Stars and Stripes or the International Herald Tribune if you wanted American news. SecDef’s commitment to segregating military members from society at large is up there with his shittiest goals.

Oh yeah @ericmgarcia.bsky.social add Chrissie to one of those all time sexy voices. Also, a helluva writer.

How the administration thinks that Miller is their best messenger is beyond me. That said, keep putting that monstrous freak out there as the face of the administration. Please.

I think this is right, but only if they themselves were asked to provide proof of citizenship. As long as you’re white and don’t have any sort of accent, you’re probably gonna be ok. And isn’t that what matters in America, that I get mine?
