A New Hampshire Republican state representative from Hillsborough is refusing to apologize after using the term "Final Solution" to disparage an event being put on by a Jewish colleague.
A short time later Ms. Etherington’s vehicle was spotted following the Border Patrol vehicles again. The BPAs made the decision to stop Ms. Etherington, this time with the intent to use the Border Patrol vehicles to box her in. A few minutes after the decision to stop Ms. Etherington was made, BPAs were able to position their Border Patrol vehicles in front and behind Ms. Etherington’s vehicle. The Border Patrol vehicles then stopped Ms. Etherington’s vehicle by boxing her vehicle in the middle of the road. As BPAs exited the vehicle, Ms. Etherington tried to drive around the Border Patrol vehicle stopped in front of her. As she passed the Border Patrol vehicle stopped in front of her, she bumped the Border Patrol vehicle and continued to drive away. The Government has produced no reports identifying any damage to the Border Patrol vehicle. As Ms. Etherington drove from the scene, BPAs reentered their vehicles and began a pursuit of Ms. Etherington that ended when Border Patrol vehicles rammed into her vehicle bringing her to a stop in front of Roosevelt High School. BPAs immediately swarmed Ms. Etherington’s vehicle with firearms drawn and broke both door windows of Ms. Etherington’s vehicle before forcibly removing her from her vehicle.
Gillian Etherington is one of MN people Pam Bondi rolled out as a trophy back in Jan. She was charged w/felony assault of CBP bc they broke her car window and dragged her out at Roosevelt High (same day Goo was shot).
She's challenging her prosecution on several grounds, incl, basically, CMON.
well as long as everyone's having fun
Yesterday, a lot of folks clocked this as market manipulation by screenshot and backspace.
Looks like someone in the White House made billions.
Obviously no congressional authorization was required for Operation Epic Fury, because Article I of the US Constitution gives Congress the power to declare War, not the power to declare Excursion.
This plan is clearly disingenuous (she just wants to stop the already-approved housing) but it's astonishing even for Park — she's appropriating a term that Metro is using for a very specific type of games-related hub and forcing it upon an overburdened LADOT, as if they didn't have enough to do!
Statement from National Press Club President Mark Schoeff Jr. on the Pentagon barring news photographers after images of Defense Secretary Hegseth were deemed unflattering.
The government is asking for public comments on whether banks should be able to deny you from buying legal goods at their own whim (i.e. how they're cracking down on art)
Tell them you don't want to be told how to spend your money

The Federal Government has not demonstrated a strong likelihood of success on the merits or “serious legal questions” coupled with a balance of hardships tipping decidedly in its favor. Any harm from the investigation- specific disqualification is abstract at best, whereas granting a stay would reinstate an official who acted without lawful authority -- a clear injury to the State Government. The public interest likewise favors ensuring that governmental power is exercised only by officials with lawful authority. Each factor, and all four taken together, weigh against granting a stay.
Another defeat for another unconstitutionally appointed Trump DOJ prosecutor:
Ex-Trump campaign lawyer John Sarcone will remain disqualified as U.S. Attorney for Albany, and his subpoenas to Letitia James' office will stay quashed.
He's not likely to succeed on appeal, a judge finds.
but ... I mean you should just be able to parlay your experience into knowing which of the military industrial complex suppliers are getting sweetheart deals so you can "invest wisely".
I mean ... isn't that what they just assume everyone else is doing because they are?
Scoop: The Pentagon barred press photographers from briefings on the ongoing U.S.-Israeli military conflict with Iran after they published photos of Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth that his staff deemed "unflattering."
Pillar 3 is ... wow.
Is this DEI? (men must now be fuckable to advance professionally)
A cartoon by Ron Cobb (1975), showing a shadow of US B-52 bomber above cratered landscape. Two people who look like Vietnamese peasants look up; one says “they’re having problems with their economy again.”
This is from 1975.
So the shoegate I understand it is this:
1. Trump equals shoe size to dick size
2. Trump asks Rubio, Hegseth and the rest of the ilk about their shoe size.
3. They all yell, like 10, 11, big, huge.
4. Trump buys those for them, and they shamble around in shoes twice their size.
i bet this shit sounds magical if you're fucking stupid
This was the attorney representing DHS/ICE here in Minnesota who told a judge “the system sucks, this job sucks” and wanted to be held in contempt so she could get some sleep.
Proposed campaign slogan “Julie Le: Oh Great, I Get to Deal With Even More Fucking Bullshit”
This story suggests that Witkoff and Kushner bungled the negotiations with Iran because they don't understand nuclear technology

You really need to watch this whole clip. It's amazing.
Your regular reminder that the absurdly simplistic claim of "race scientists" that there are genetically determined racial differences in intelligence is about as "controversial" as the claims that the earth is flat, that smoking doesn't cause lung cancer, or that vaccines cause autism
just remembering the time the Washington Post leadership hung my friend Felicia, a sexual assault victim, out to dry because she tweeted *a link to a news story* about the rape when he died.
As I always say, the problem with The Emperor's New Clothes as an instructional fable is that everyone suddenly comes to their senses when the issue becomes obvious enough.
I want to introduce you all to something myself and @jacksonwryan.com have been working on.
A PRINT MAGAZINE about video games and video game culture.
We know things have been bad for games writing recently. We're asking, "do you want to Continue?"

Any answer other than “the president is a historically stupid man only now he has dementia” is journalistic malpractice
He allegedly said "he needed help transferring data from a thumb drive “to his personal computer so that he could ‘sanitize’ the data before using it at [the company.] ... [and] that he expected to receive a presidential pardon ... ." www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...
Holy shit - this would be very, very bad:
"The databases, called “Numident” and the “Master Death File,” include records for more than 500 million living and dead Americans, including Social Security numbers, places and dates of birth, citizenship, race and ethnicity, and parents’ names."
This is hilarious.
Also, completely enraging.
