Nashville reporter's detention by federal immigration officials poses grave threat to press freedom and the public’s right to know. A thread on Estefany Rodriguez: www.freepress.net/news/free-pr...
What
@ryanlcooper.com
they're doing the thing where they worship trump again lol
First they came for the trans people, and I said nothing because I wasn’t trans. Then they were like actually I’m pretty sure you are trans and I said no I’m not and they went okay well show us your penis then and I said what no get out of my face and they said that one’s a girl get her
The memory of the righteous is a blessing
lol
The Trump Administration can’t even impose its will on Minneapolis when the full force of the federal government was focused on it, but surely they will be able to pacify and remake Iran, a nation of 90 million people halfway around the world.
The White House is right, trump is definitely a king, he launched a pointless weird bloodbath involving various countries while presiding over a ruined economy

You rarely see this level of a commitment to the bit
The degree to which she wants to turn the entire right wing internet against Erika Kirk is astounding
All thru 2022, it was impossible not to get the feeling from their public displays that elite conservatives and their operatives and figureheads weren’t **aggressively thrilled that late-COVID conditions and CRIME WAVE and INFLATION etc were occurring
I am saying this as an earnest compliment sorta but: elite Dems do a much better job of at least acting like they aren’t happy that death, crimes, and shitty economy are happening while the other party is in power in an election year than the right does
Good thing we have a strong labor market and affordable food to weather this completely unavoidable crisis.

We got the un group condoning attacks against Iran and “war labeled a violation of territorial integrity,” and a dive into the Warren county gop engulfed in scandal with “attack ads, texts, sexist allegations”
Headline and framing decisions are nowadays rather distinct from other local mid sized city papers that I typically am aware of
Sorry to sound like a NewsBusters media critic and I’m saying this somewhat tongue in cheek but guys…. I picked up the front page of today’s Cincinnati enquirer again and I think the paper has gone Woke lol
At this point (caveats of things always subject to shift), what would u do if you were the Iranian government? Would you take a face saving and kinda favorable deal now or would you push it harder, cause as much pain as you think you can, to try to tell the world: do not do this again
What on earth did he expect?
Much of Trump's first term presidency was not a disaster partly because he did not run into big external crises until Covid came along. His second term is a disaster because he is actively creating those crises.
He could try to peace out at any moment, is the read of the landscape of those close to him. However uh….. if so, good luck
I do not want to downplay how much this thing could spiral. And trump, much to the admin’s dismay, is not the only one who controls when this thing could end
One point tho is trump absolutely does not have the stomach for a protracted war. But due to his heinous idiocy, he may not have a choice
No, and it appears a clear majority of Americans wouldn’t buy an illegal war from him either
A year after Trump’s tariffs pushed US alcohol off Canadian shelves, drinkers and bartenders are leaning into local spirits and inventing cocktails.
Even weirder when the “player” here has already lost several lives in the short battle
