@joshgerstein A *competent* DoJ head trying to distract from Congress asking why she refuses to do her job, wouldn’t be screaming about the Dow and spewing utter lies about elected reps Playing to “an audience of one,” Trump can’t be too happy that she made his involvement more obvious

@shipwreckedcrew Yes, but that's miles away from "was attempting to run him over," which is what the administration has been claiming from the start.

The video now released from the cell phone being used by the officer makes this even easier. He's clearly gathering evidence by walking 360 around the car recording the face of the driver as well as her admissions for what they are doing, the face of admissions of her partner, and the license plate of the vehicle. He only moves from the passenger side around the front of the vehicle -- where he had already been once -- when he sees another ICE office approaching the driver's door. So this is his second time walking around the front -- and he maintains an amount of space between him and the vehicle -- with nothing having happened the first time, and the driver looking directly at him and engaging with him verbally. She did not panic. She was PURPOSELY trying to evade contact with the second ICE officer approaching her door. She was attempting to escape what she was anticipating to be an effort to arrest her.

@mateurhour @JustinBrannan So how many Americans do we need to mow down in enforcing our immigration policies? Please remember that the American Revolution was not about breaking laws but freeing ourselves from a tyrannical (British, monarchical) government that treated us like underlings

New York City became a sanctuary city via an executive order from Mayor Ed Koch in 1989. Every mayor since (including Rudy Giuliani) has fought to keep it that way. Why? Because unlike ICE, this policy keeps us safe.

@BenBajarin @Mikke_Pretty Hi, Ben! Long time! I know you're very well aware of loss-leader, stripped-down/MVP, teaser and “penetration pricing” strategies to support firms' overall profitability. Sellers benefit from network effects, esp mindset & lock-in So what's the market for $500–$1K devices?

I didn’t foresee that calling for guns to overthrow an oppressive ruling party would so soon be used against an oppressive ruling party with multiple paramilitary groups that has declared war on the USA

Wow. Grok just popped up my 2½ yr-old post on Kirk It summarized that Kirk’s insane ideology amounted to a suicide pact, that promoting guns as a political solution would destroy our country I didn’t call Kirk evil; I did not say his call for violence justified killing HIM…

@FluteMagician Employers hiring illegal aliens are breaking the law. Illegal aliens hurt American workers by driving down wages. Zero tolerance is the correct stance.

1) There is more to this story than meets the eye, as bad as it is to the eye immediately. And the truth of it will both surprise and not surprise you. You will see why no country should trust any “deals” with Trump and why, in fact, NO ONE can trust him. So let’s begin⬇️

@alex_house @JayShams Of course that’d be the gist of it But it’s much more complicated…civil suits, how much she’d say about other of Epstein’s friends, how to not contradict known facts, etc And I presume nobody wants that explicit quid pro quo said so it to accidentally get exposed to the public

@JayShams You’re overthinking it. The meeting is basically “Testify that Trump didn’t fuck any 14 year olds and we’ll get you a pardon”. There is no universe in which it is an attempt to “get at the truth”.

As a person who covered Ghislaine Maxwell's criminal trial, and who has read through pretty much every single Jeffrey Epstein lawsuit, I find the current discourse to be in bizarro land.

@JamesSurowiecki Pascal is paying someone in Bangladesh to make his clothes…not the woman in his town who has kids at home, or a guy who’d want 10X as much to sew a👕bc he has a better-$$$ job PS—The dollars don’t just disappear…they go to buy 🇺🇸products, or buy US bonds so Trump can cut taxes

I don't understand how this is hard to understand. If I buy something with dollars, I have not "lost" those dollars. I have traded them for something I value more highly than the dollars. It doesn't matter if that trade is with a domestic company or a foreign one - exchanging dollars for goods or services is not a "loss."

@deaconrigo @rshereme I’ve been a to-war since ‘68 and I have never heard such nonsense abuse of the concept of how to prevent war Inviting power-mad people to succeed by starting and succeeding in their aggression will only expand their efforts

@rshereme Although in principle the ambassador may be correct, the alternative is much worse… Are we ready for a nuclear conflict? Do we remember the Cold War philosophy of MAD?

Powerful text from Bridget Brink: I was U.S. ambassador to Ukraine. I resigned because of Trump's foreign policy. I have proudly served five presidents ― to make sure the United States is the strongest, greatest country that the world has ever known. 1/n

@Dexter__Wright @acnewsitics “Advisors” are meant to HELP make good decisions, to ID pluses and minuses Not to make up nonsense propaganda rationale for bad ones Navarro’s lies helped Trump paint himself into a corner. Yes, Trump deserved it for his habit of choosing butt-kissers instead of real advisors

@paulg Yes simply presume a polemical claim from a propaganda battle to justify a flaccid US response. One with NO solid evidence despite best efforts by NatSec under Trump, Biden and Trump again And insist on negating “natural origin/spillover” proven for most epidemics 🤪

I'm confused about the 'Canada as 51st state' thing because, if they succeeded, they'd be adding 40million new citizens who overwhelmingly hate Trump and hate MAGA, flipping the House and Senate. Right?

@Noahpinion Did you say “low confidence” like the CIA did? Yes, we WANT CIA types to be paranoid, to look for evil intent by other nations or free-lance bad guys. So it’s fine they say there might be monsters under the bed But FFS, LabLeak’s evidence is so weak vs zoonosis’s is VERY STRONG

@LeakerApple Do you want the lens to be even wider angle than now? Or the phone body to be thicker? Or maybe you have some optical genius that’d allow a “normal” 35mm ☞equivalent☜ focal length lens to be shallower than the other proportions?
