My wife and I were just sitting in bed last night watching Charlie’s videos and at one point, She looks at me and goes, “I used to hate him and I have no idea why.”

It's not right vs left Its the extremes vs everyone in the middle

Someone in the newsroom said that this shattering event feels like the aftermath of another Charlie: Charlie Hebdo. It was a decade ago that Islamists burst into the offices of the satirical Paris newspaper and murdered 12 people who worked there. In its aftermath there were a

CXL culture is in full swing again, firing people for insensitive/inflammatory comments. While not gov't silencing, it's just about as powerful and massively hypocritical. Show you believe in free speech by calling it disgusting and leave it at that.

The Bulwark No.

The problem with Trump was never that he was a Nazi or a Russian spy or any of the other ridiculousness. The problem was always that he’s an ignoramus who only cares about himself. Even in a moment like this. It’s all he cares about.

hating the algos seems super dumb when you realize its following your lead. we're hard-wired to not look away from the train wreck. Look away from the train wreck.

I have been vocal about my concerns with respect to illegal immigration, and my sympathy has (rightly or wrongly) been limited for people who broke the law to enter. We can’t give illegal immigrants an advantage over those who chose to abide by the law. Needless to say, I have

Masked authority MUST be banned. I see entirely too little outrage about masked policing. Being unmasked MUST be one of the ways we recognize authentic enforcement officers.

This Greenland annexation idiocy is going against global order in a way that acknowledges America is letting go of the global security job and focusing on internal energy transformation to catch up to China. Horrible way to do it, but if they don't 'just snatch it', the path to

credit where due, this is an awesome achievement!!
