Airing this is not "free speech," but malicious smearing of the magistrate by Fox. A small nod to Hannity for noting he thought the picture was shopped and really waa an Epstein image, but he did not push back nearly hard enough.

If Bill Maher is prescient and the FBI just handed Trump a lifeline to re-election who gets the last laugh?

The mayor of DC has renewed her request for help with the migrants being bused in from the south (without a plan or permission to the governors in question).

The busing is, itself, inhumane.

Flooding a city's social services without support all the more so.

Opening the doors to anyone and everyone is inhumane and an unfair burden to citizens.

Damn good thing we do not do that, then. Not even anything close.

I too once met a girl in Central Park, but it is not much to remember. What I remember is the time John Wayne killed three men with a carbine as he was falling to the dusty street in Stagecoach, and the time the kitten found Orson Welles in the doorway in The Third Man.

From their vantage point, it is a million dollars very well spent, said Dean Baker, a senior economist... Its pretty rare you see this direct of a return on your investment. So I guess I would congratulate them.

Here's a comparison between Hillary Clinton's classified docs and Trump's by "David Laufman, the former chief of the Department of Justice's counterintelligence division who investigated Hillary Clinton's handling of classified documents."

The receipt "completely validates" the investigation and the warrant, in his opinion.

Not so much news as ongoing failure by the American government - Biden administration explicitly included, but not uniquely - to honor our treaties with our native tribes.

Putin. Trump is still defiled property of the Russian autocrat, though MBS will have a nice chuckle too.

Tulsi Gabbard is filling in for Tucker Carlson.

If that doesn't tell you everything you needed to know about her, I don't know what would.

If we expose republicans for what they are and win the upcoming elections, the industry would have bought itself a year at most. A good investment, but not the total bonanza they are prematurely celebrating with cocaine and hookers right now.

Trump: We've cooperated with them fully. This raid was inappropriate and unnecessary. We've given them everything they've asked for.

Trump's lawyer(s) in June: There are no classified documents at Mar-a-Lago.
https://www.cnn.com/2022/08/13/politics/trump-attorney-classified-documents-mar-a-lago-search/index.html

FBI: We found 11 sets of classified documents at Mar-a-Lago.

Oops.
