  1. There has to be some kind of punishment or penalty for outing FBI agents, I would think.

    • I suspect the consequences will fall most heavily on any of these tubby weekend warriors who think that their army/navy surplus camo gear and stuff they ordered from Guns & Ammo are going to put them on par with federal agents. I know the popular take on law enforcement tends to be Sheriff Roscoe P. Coltrane, and that ain’t always wrong at the local level. The feds play on a different field entirely.

      And they know it’s coming. I guarantee you they planned for this. Probably for months.

      Joe MAGA should stick to his barbecue grill. Otherwise the population of idiots is going to decline abruptly.

      • First, I am totally on board with the population of idiots declining rapidly.

        Second, this is how it always goes.ย  President (or Vice President in some cases) does something hugely fucking illegal.ย  Flunkies take the fall.ย  Sometimes they do it knowing they’ll get pardoned anyway.

        • One interesting angle about the classified docs is how this may extend past Trump to high level people and not just stooges. Possession of copies of this stuff without authorization can be a crime a too, and if he was looping in people like Roger Stone or Kash Patel they may be in trouble too.

          The thing about classified doc handling rules is they’re highly defined and strict. It’s a whole level higher than tax law, which is loaded with loopholes and gray areas, and court precedents are not defendant-friendly.

          Which is no guarantee of anything, but it’s a minefield for these people.

  2. Redacted; my link failed?

    • Let’s see if this works. This is a long feature:

      (Foiled again! Can we no longer embed YouTube videos? Have I alone lost that magical ability? Are the World Dog Surfing Championships top secret/need to know basis?)

  3. Congrats on the wedding! Don’t let your godson touch any spindles or eat any poisoned apples.

    There’s a typo in that in that DenverLib tweet — it’s spelled “David Broke”

  4. Why are so called centrists fucking wimps?

    One would think that being disliked by the left and right would make one tougher. Instead it’s all hand wringing and capitulation.

     

  5. Exciting news!!!! The obgyn was completely chill when I said I wanted a tubal ligation so I don’t have to deal with hormonal bc/IUD anymore for the next decade+ until menopause kicks in. I was worried that they would give some pushback since Missouri and they’re in a Catholic health system, but nope they were like okay sure I’ll have the scheduler call you next week to get that on the books.
