It's Chaos, Be Kind

Accurate.

That seems a little light in terms of supplies that might be needed.

Police body cam footage shows DOGE knew Institute of Peace was private property during raid Footage obtained by The Handbasket’s lawsuit shows a hostile takeover on March 17, 2025.

SCOOP — Body camera footage obtained as a result of my lawsuit against the DC Metropolitan PD confirms DOGE and the Trump administration openly admitted they were entering private property when they raided the building on March 17, 2025. That didn't stop MPD from breaking down the doors.

My report:

Maybe it will happen this weekend.

Let's put it this way, when you are Matt and you don't clarify one way or the other, it is at the very least cynical engagement bait.

Yglesias is such a credulous rube.

Democrats join legal challenge to Trump’s planned 250-foot arch “This is a straightforward issue of who’s in charge,” Sen. Angus King of Maine told The Post, citing a law that certain monuments must receive Congress’s approval.

New: Democrats asked a federal court to block Trump's 250-ft arch.

Under law, Congress must approve certain monuments in DC.

“This is a straightforward issue of who’s in charge,” @SenAngusKing said.

They also mocked the "vanity" project.

“This is not Pyongyang,” @RepHuffman told me.

It'll actually be LESS misogynistic than the source material.

Never plan on being productive the day after a successful Kickstarter. My brain has been like a cracked-out rat reacting to a strobe light today.

A sequence of shots from the TV series MASH. Three surgeons are operating in a mobile army surgical theater, and are masked in cotton masks, wearing cotton caps to cover hair, and aprons. Bright lights are visible in their backgrounds. The first, panel shows Frank Burns (an absolute jerk character but Larry Linville, his actor, was not) saying, “Everybody knows war is Hell”. The second panel shows BJ Hunnicutt (Mike Farrell) saying (sarcastically) “ remember, you heard it here last.” The third and fourth panels show Hawkeye Pierce (Alan Alda) saying, “War isn’t Hell. War is war and Hell is hell and of the two, war is a lot worse.“ 5th panel shows Father Mulcahey, the chaplain (William Christopher) saying, “How do you figure that, Hawkeye?” 6th is back to Hawkeye, saying “ Easy, Father. Tell me, who goes to Hell?” 7th is Fr Mulcahey saying “ Sinners, I believe.” The last three panels are all Hawkeye, saying, “ Exactly. There are no innocent bystanders in Hell. But war is chock full of them. Little kids, cripples, old ladies. In fact, except for a few of the brass, almost everybody involved is an innocent bystander.”

Agree that I hate this is still relevant.

This is the thing about bathroom bans targeting trans people - assault is already a crime! Indecent exposure is already a crime! And laws that protect trans people don't suddenly make them legal

Man I can't figure out why everybody thinks the Democrats are weak willed and can't be trusted to actually do the right thing. It's a mystery. An enigma. A downright conundrum.

DARIO ARGENTO'S CEREBUS.

The Army hopes to lure civilian tech workers by letting some join as captains The focus on direct commissions expands on a program that saw four Silicon Valley executives join as lieutenant colonels last year.

My counter-offer:

Let them join as 2LTs instead. Do the work. Learn the lessons. Take the hits. Figure it out first.

They are not special and valorizing "tech" is some Brotherhood of Steel cult behavior.

Anyone involved in this should be ashamed of themselves.

Getting some expert advice on how to wage an illegal war over imaginary WMDs

Welles was Welles because he was a megalomaniac, but at least 70% of the late period excess is being furious that his art forms - where he once thought he was making a difference - locked him & those like him out. Get him talking about how acting works, how a scene works, there's nobody better.

Himes: I have a theory on how this ends…

You’re going to see oil go across $100… Projections for economic growth are going to go down.

And at some point in 3-5 weeks, the president is going to say this is really not tenable. And he’s going to declare victory and walk away.

More layoffs at Valnet. They could use representation, I bet.
