“I’m sure you’re aware of our connections with the Trump Administration,” the North Carolina Republican Party's communications director wrote in an email response to us. “I would strongly suggest dropping this story.”
We didn't. Read the story that he wanted dropped:
Trump was asked by 60 Minutes about immigration agents using aggresive"H tactics like busting people's windows.
"Have those tactics gone too far?"
"No", Trump said, "I think they haven't gone far enough."
This is what that looks like in the real world.

Good bit of analysis here.
'Putting lay-offs down to AI sounds better than saying “we need to keep margins high so we’re sacking some low performers” and politically safer than saying “unpredictable Trump tariff policy means we are hiring less young people.”'
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."
heartbroken to learn the pope sympathizes with the poor. how can i continue to believe in god
This guy, Johnson, is so fucking repressed... I wouldn't trust him alone with a child, much less leading a national political Party.

At least, yes.
That the Pentagon even tried to clamp down of the press, is deeply disturbing though, and shows how far the Trump rot has spread.
that they left em masse, at least, seems like a good sign
Unless and until some kind of compelling legal and moral argument is presented as to why this is a legitimate use of deadly force, this is just…mass murder.
There is no conceivable argument that these ships, even if we assume they were carrying narcotics, could not be dealt with in some other way. I think we can just drop the caveats and say: This is mass murder.
Old enough to remember when scenes like this would have been unthinkable in America. (It was 9 months ago)

so can someone explain how it’s good when AI takes our jobs but bad when the immigrants do?
Oooh it’s the harvest moon!

Gov JB Pritzker said Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem "should no longer be able to step foot" in Illinois without accountability "for the trump Administration's gross misconduct" as she visited the Broadview ICE facility Friday…
This is a White Nationalist in action.

This may be as close as we’ll ever get to an official confirmation
People who don’t think this is fascism “yet” aren’t seeing members of their own ethnic group get brutalized and kidnapped by masked men with guns.
Some of us already live in the future. Spoiler alert: It’s fascism.
Republicans control the White House, Senate, and the House. This government shutdown is failed Republican leadership on full display.
As US govt shutdown looms, workers across many agencies received identical emails blaming Democrats.
The message mandated by White House OMB had "one clear stipulation: Absolutely no modifications to the language."
Great scoop from @marisakabas.bsky.social

Guardians 9, Rangers 8: With Detroit losing nearly an hour earlier the Guardians had already clinched the AL Central. But winning this game like they did – with a four-run tenth inning rally capped off by a walkoff three-run homer from Brayan Rocchio – bolstered a theory of mine: that the Guardians are possessed of more Devil Magic that any team since the La Russa-era Cardinals. They had a massive comeback here. They clinched their playoff spot on Saturday night on a walkoff hit-by-pitch. They beat Detroit with 57 dinks-and-doinks last week, with the rally being kicked off by their own dude getting hit in the damn face with a hundred mile-per-hour heater. And, of course, they came back and won the AL Central from 15.5 games down despite ending the season with a negative run differential. There is nothing natural about any of this. And they don't friggin' care, man. That's the most unsettling part. The Cleveland Guardians can't be bargained with. They can't be reasoned with. I don't actually think that means they're World Series favorites or anything, but it does mean that we toy with them at our peril. If they eventually get knocked out of the playoffs it's probably because they just get beat, but it's also possible it will be because they accidentally ran their car over the entire opposing team and were deemed to have forfeited. And now they get the Tigers again after playing them six times in the last two weeks, winning five of those contests in no small part because Detroit seemed utterly spooked and intimidated. It's almost cruel.
Draft of the recap for the Guardians game in tomorrow's newsletter.
