If you’re here just to find out what this article says is the “one big reason,” it’s “because old people like their jobs.”

My eyepatch has been in a shoebox for the better part of a decade, but I’m beginning to feel restless. I crave the salty air.

They should set its price level based on how much value it adds.

It’s not an easy choice to cut off an interview like this. I’m certain the producers in the control room had to do the calculus on whether to allow her to seed horrible misinformation and “appear” “neutral” (I know, I know), or cut her off and appear to be “suppressing the truth” (AGAIN… I know).

She came onto the show with exactly this intent. It was a win-win for the Trump campaign to pull this kind of bullshit. They’re all so fucking rotten.

Wow. Approval of interracial marriage only reached majority in 1995?

I have used 1Blocker for years and have been relatively content. I may be grandfathered into a lower price of like $5/yr, though. So I’m not sure about the cost being worth it for a newcomer who can’t get a deal like that.

The end of the article is great:

For his part, Mr. Raskin has tried to come up with creative ways to invoke Mr. Trump’s criminal cases without running afoul of the ruling.

During a recent floor speech, he made reference to an “unmentionable American felon, one of 19 million in the country” and an “unrepentant and anonymous convicted felon from New York” without mentioning the former president by name. He referred to Mr. Trump’s hush-money case as “the trial whose very existence must be sent down the Orwellian memory hole to save someone’s hurt feelings.”

In the interview, he noted that no rule could erase the facts of Mr. Trump’s status as a felon.

“I’m afraid the Republicans have now invited a contest for how creative we can be in talking about Donald Trump’s criminal convictions without explicitly stating those words,” Mr. Raskin said.

Is this a Lighthouse reference or am I just too A24-pilled?
