A paramilitary group plotted to overthrow the Constitution then conducted a violent attack on America. They were convicted in court of seditious conspiracy, and jailed. Then the leader they aimed to illegally install got power and let them out, their records wiped clean. The Jan. 6 attackers won.
Judge Pained as He Grants Dismissal of Jan. 6 Charges Against Oath Keepers
The judge, Amit P. Mehta, blasted the administration’s request for a dismissal in the case, saying it bestowed “unearned grace” on the Oath Keepers defendants “by wiping their records clean.”

The Jan. 6 attackers’ victory looks short lived. They got an anti-Constitution leader and their criminal convictions undone (though some got arrested for new offenses). But Team Trump’s failing at authoritarian consolidation. Still, they won. Some got jobs in a new secret police. It’s awfully dark.

SARS-CoV-2 did not come from a lab. There is no evidence pointing to laboratory origins. There’s been a massive disinformation campaign to convince the public otherwise. It’s scary how effective that campaign has been.
El-Sayed: We live in an era where we continue to see a few very small people try to define America as being as small as they are. We can't control the past 250 years. What we can do is build the next 250

This is genuinely great. I like McMorrow a lot more than I liked her campaign team. Time to come together and win the general. Stevens also made some good gestures in the last 24 hours; here’s hoping she carries through.

I think the thing that bothered me about Haley Stevens’ fake accent is it sounded a lot like someone trying and fucking up a Chris Farley impression, anyway hope I never see that AIPAC funded shithead again.
No matter the margin the story is that Haley Stevens got $70M of support, more than $30M of it from a single organization, and still lost.

compared to most Hollywood productions, $5.5m is peanuts. on an indie level? that's enough money to 3 or 4 movies. (Obsession cost $750k!) plus based on the trailer it looks cheap as hell.
