  1. Here's a thought: #weiss realizes airing a thorough piece on #minneapolis (which seems to be in the works), would add more evidence the Trump #immigration crackdown isn't just inhumane, but has goals far past addressing "fraud," so she opts to air the #CECOT story now and hopes #minneapolis will boil over, so the final #60minutes story will be more favorable to Trump.

  2. As a former #SPOX, let me tell you what Weiss doesn't know about the job - it's to serve as a buffer btwn decision makers & the media. End running a #SPOX is never appreciated, either by the #SPOX or the principal.

    That's not to say there aren't times when the decision maker will decide to talk to the media, but if and when they do it, they ALREADY KNEW people were looking for them.

    IOW the ONLY reason Miller, Noem, etc. would speak now is b/c they SEE AN ADVANTAGE & ARE NOW PRIMED & READY

  3. For the sake of #journalism and #publicinformation, I suggest every major news outlet in every major city where ICE has come in and started attacking its citizens, join forces to create an "IceNewsBundle" discount subscription. I know I'd buy it.

  4. The biggest misconception about district boundaries is that the only representation you have in congress is the person elected to represent your district. If the majority of your states' representatives belong to your political party, you have a shitload of representation. So you see, #missouri #casscounty stealing one more representative from the minority party, as you plan on doing is REMOVING representation from your neighbors.

    I know - you're going to do the power grab today anyway.

  5. #AlGore talking about #NoKings "There is a feeling on the part of some that we do need a king, we do need an autocrat,” he said. “Well, to hell with you, we do not. We're Americans. And the whole spirit of these demonstrations is to reassert that fact.”

  6. Oh, I'm so sorry. I thought for sure Trump was going to claim the #NYC election was rigged, not that he'd claim #prop50 in #California was rigged. Guess we know now which one worries him the most.

  7. Democratic senators and public health advocates are demanding that the White House and its contractors prove their rapid demolition of the East Wing last week did not expose workers and passersby to #asbestos a construction material that has been linked to cancer and lung disease.
    White House officials have said work to abate #hazardous materials at the site was performed last month but have so far not provided documentation . . . washingtonpost.com/politics/20

  8. RE: mstdn.social/@JamesWNeal/11613

    FWIW, I get the "he's so authentic", even though it shouldn't be enough to get someone elected. Not being able to throw away old style political speak is dooming a lot of good candidates. We need more
    #petebuttigieg and more
    #zohranmamdani - "authentic," but in a good way.

  9. #Realtors haven't figured out "Location, location, location," now comes with a footnote - * true high speed internet. Thankfully there are tools for checking an address, as well as the neighborhood. Plug any address in to this site, scroll down and see what's available. THEN, scroll further and bring up a map that shows % coverage in the area for any ISP that serves it.

    For instance, "location," but good luck getting #fiber in Tucson's high end Catalina Foothills.

  10. Country in debt far above its eyeballs to make gold coin "as big as possible," in honor of man who took country's debt to a whole new level. #whosegold #foolsgold

  11. Not sure how a panoramic aspect ratio will display here, but we'll give it a shot. If you don't know the Phoenix area, you'd probably not believe me if I told you this is just east of Mesa, north of Apache Junction. But if you *are* from there, you know the river & mountain intimately. #SaltRiver #Phoenix #Arizona #RedMountain #Photography

  12. I don't want to hear #Comer try to justify bringing in the Clintons. I want to hear the Clintons detail what they were asked and how they responded. OK, I really want to want to hear them live, ripping #Comer a new one.

  13. The commission overseeing the compensation fund would have the total authority to hand out approximately $1.7 billion in taxpayer funds to settle claims brought by anyone who alleges they were harmed by the Biden administration's "weaponization" of the legal system, including the nearly 1,600 individuals charged in connection with the Jan. 6 Capitol attack as well as potentially entities associated with President Trump himself.

  14. Jan. 6er: Biden made me cry.

    Trump: Here's a big fat check. Not my money, of course. Taxpayer money.

  15. Look, if you really trust a government that posts memes pulled directly from the Nazis nobody disputes are Nazis, isn't intentionally promoting #nazi beliefs, then I guess it's not surprising you believe Steven Miller really thinks #Sinatra would have been on his side.

    Frank would have punched that f!*ker right in the mouth.

  16. From the KCUR story on what Trump's doing to the cattle industry. His slapping himself on the back post and the National Cattlemen's Beef Association healthy dose of reality. #beef #ranchers #tariffs

  17. Trump’s pardons wipe out payments to defrauded victims. In addition to clearing prison sentences, the president’s clemency actions have erased millions in #restitution payments. 1/2

  18. When all we had were the "big three," I don't remember it ever being this bad. Well except for the #SmothersBrothers Maybe that #fairnessdoctrine policy established in 1949 by the FCC did us some good. You know, up until - reaganlibrary.gov/archives/top.

  19. RE: mstdn.social/@JamesWNeal/11584

    I don't care for polls that (1) don't help us understand how #clueless most people who respond to polls really are; (2) don't at least TRY to inform the respondents before asking what they think. That Maduro was illegitimate is a given, but almost everybody is using "drug lord," as the rationale.

  20. If you believe the #minessota raids are about getting the #worst criminals off the streets, then you must believe the ones in #florida, Texas and California are saints.

  21. Looking for good (adheres to basic principles) independent news outlets? The Minnesota Reformer might be one to track. How do I decide if a news outlet's legit? Well, I watch for clauses like "was unable to verify." Think about that for a sec. minnesotareformer.com

  22. Looking for good (adheres to basic #journalistic principles) independent news outlets? The Minnesota Reformer might be one to track. How do I decide if a news outlet's legit? Well, I watch for clauses like "was unable to verify." Think about that for a sec. minnesotareformer.com

  26. I see conspiracy where there likely is none. For instance, seems like all social media was designed to add millions of people to the ranks of the socially inept, introverted folks who never "got out" at all.

    Then, not satisfied, they released a pandemic, so we had no choice but to stay at home and replaced the water cooler with Zoom.

    OK, all of that wasn't by design, but because so many more of them #resisted than we did, got out more, not less -

    Christ people. Even talk to your neighbors?
