Jan Crawford defending Bari Weiss on Twitter, cluelessly but confidently declaring that the Free Press isn't conservative.

This is CBS's national legal correspondent.

As I've said all along, Bari Weiss is more a product of the kind of thinking that drives the mainstream political media than she is a product of right-wing propaganda. Or, put another way, she's a product of a particular *kind* of right-wing propaganda.

Here's a regular white guy (literally "Chad") not a protester. because, "It seemed pointless, or just a way for people to expiate their sense of guilt." Chad witnessed something shattering. And, that all changed in a moment.

Excellent article!

DAVE MATTHEWS: β€œI don’t want my taxes to pay for masked thugs to roam our streets & terrorize our communities... She was trying to get away. He shot her 3x in the head. Murdered in cold blood. They’re trying to tell us not to believe what we see. FUCK ICE.”

The reactionary centrist logic is simple: if the left does something bad it’s the left’s fault, and if the right does something bad, it’s also the left’s fault for making them do it. It’s a simple formula and once you see it every one of their arguments is the same

In America you drop your kid off at school, get your brains blown out on the ride home, then the Vice President drops everything for a week to call you a terrorist, to slander your family, to protect the circumstances that led to your death so they can do it again. It is government by Alex Jones.

Scoop: The lone employee behind CISA's Pre-Ransomware Notification Initiative resigned on Friday rather than take a forced reassignment to FEMA.

CISA says PRNI will continue, but sources said David Stern's loss will be a major setback for it.

Only Politico could list the 9 most shocking Epstein revelations from this week and not include anything on Trump.

Redaction immediately following "Trump is gross" is intriguing. Remember that the principal justification for redactions is protecting the victims. Here it would be important to pursue the question of why this was redacted and whether the victim will consent to revealing what lies beneath.

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.

The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.

People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.

And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

The Pope tweets: "The poor are not there by chance or by blind and cruel fate. Nor, for most of them, is poverty a choice. Yet, there are those who still presume to make this claim, thus revealing their own blindness and cruelty. #DilexiTe"

Someone replies: "I was so hopeful I could be a Catholic again after the disaster that Francis was, guess we just get Francis 2.0 now and I am heartbroken.  How do I stay a Catholic now...I don't want to lose faith but I am. You belong to someone else, not God."

We know Charlie Kirk would want us to pray for such an evil, and lost individual like Tyler Robinson to find Jesus Christ.

We will try to do the same.

In a world where exposing criminality is just a tool to be wielded for enemies, then an argument about Bill Clinton makes sense.

In a world where wrongdoing should be exposed on all sides without fear or favor...bring it on. It makes for a better regime to live under.

It worked for the far right... Though they also had a ton of big money behind it and it took 25 years. Big money on the Dem side will actively fight it.

I hope you understand that if you show up at a hospital with an infection no one has ever seen before that the US had somewhere you could call. That place would answer, offer testing you can’t get anywhere else and come visit you to solve if necessary.

🚨Border Patrol arrested two firefighters who were actively fighting a wildfire at the time.

When the other members of the crew asked for a chance to say goodbye, a Border Patrol agent told the crew member β€œyou need to get the f*ck out of here. I’m going to make you leave.”

I got around to reading this closely and it's an easy education in how David Shor rigs things. The tested messaging on deploying the National Guard is actually shit - so they lead you to conclude that the *focus* is shit, instead of the fact that the test message is (deliberately) shit
