SHOW ME THE MAN AND I’LL SHOW YOU THE CRIME: AGs conceal records tied to longstanding plans to sue Trump. “A ‘confidential’ document obtained by The Center Square shows at least 22 Democratic attorneys general plotted litigation against President Donald Trump as early as April 28, 2024 — three months before Vice President Kamala Harris announced her run for president and approximately seven months before Trump was reelected.”
ALEX, I’LL TAKE “ARGUMENTS I’VE BEEN MAKING SINCE THE ’80S TO NO AVAIL” FOR $400:
This is a plain reality almost everyone ignores.
You can think we over-spend on Israel or Gaza aid, some weapons system, etc. But, Defense and State COMBINED are like 11% of the budget. Significantly cutting gov't size requires targeting entitlements. https://t.co/GPAXEmy4l4

HOLLYWOOD SUICIDE: Paramount Moving To Austin? “Paramount and Netflix continue to fight over control of Warner Brothers, with California’s state government continuing to oppose the Paramount bid, the sticking point reportedly being preserving liberal control of geriatric news network CNN. As a result, Paramount is threatening to move out of California over the state’s opposition to the merger and their generally business hostile environment. And one potential destination for Paramount’s new HQ is Austin.”
YOU SAY “MISINFORMATION,” I SAY “SQUANDERING OF PUBLIC TRUST.” Cancer vaccines could transform treatment and prevention – but misinformation about mRNA vaccines threatens their potential.

Huck Finn deciding, “All right, then, I’ll go to hell,” is the most important line in American literature, and its most powerful. The book must be mandatory reading for our kids. https://t.co/2geVoeGBe7

CDR Sal adds: “For those who are not aware of the story, Huck must choose between returning the runaway slave Jim or helping him stay free. Huck’s society and laws tell him it is a sin to help an escaped slave. Huck sees the evil and error of his society and laws compared to the goodness of Jim and the injustice of slavery. It is about not just moral courage, but absolute courage… and friendship.”

DECOUPLING: Google Pulls Every Last Pixel Product Out of China. “Google is cutting Beijing out of its hardware supply chain entirely. Starting in 2027, every Pixel phone, watch, and earbud will be manufactured in Vietnam and India, eliminating China’s decade-long foothold in the company’s manufacturing. Only Samsung has made a cleaner break among global smartphone brands.”

NOT THE BEE: Pennsylvania court case declared mistrial because none of the jurors would own up to smoking a doobie in the jury room. “The prosecution and the defense both agreed that if the juror had a prescription it was fine, and the judge said no one would be in trouble for the incident, but all the jurors also swore that they were not taking any medications that could affect their judgment in the case, so the judge needed to figure out who it was.”
That would be fine, really?
