Sorry, you and AP have been weaponizing language for a decade with cisgender, pregnant persons, unhoused, disinformation, undocumented immigrants, etc. You couldn’t define a woman but were dead sure if a man believed he was a woman, we all had to as well. We had to go along, or else. How does your medicine taste?

@Obs509 @jimgeraghty @MaxNordau As were the Cabinet Secretaries and undersecretaries the district judges are now saying they can’t do their job. Also a Senate confirmation isn’t an election. Maybe brush up on your language skills, bot

Please explain how barring a reporter from a WH briefing is a violation of the First Amendment? Please cite the legal basis for such an opinion. Prior restraint? No AP can write about it any way they want. Censorship? Denying access isn’t censorship. They can’t use. The pool report to write about it. So-called “Viewpoint discrimination?” This laughable claim isn’t supported by any actual law or case. Even the DC law doesn’t apply to the Federal Govt. You’re way out of your league on 1A law, and AP is on the wrong side of history on this.

@guypbenson When I hear “Constitutional Crisis” or “Fascist Dictatorship” or “Brink of Civil/Nuclear War” I always think of that line in Men in Black, where Kay tells Jay we’re always in a world-ending crisis, so calm down:

Seriously. If DeSantis had said, ‘I want an immigration board with all elected Executive Branch officials chaired by the Gov; that controls $300M+ for programs; gives the Gov power to remove elected officials (mayors, sheriffs, DAs, city officials) for not cooperating with ICE; removes in-state tuition for illegal aliens; and doesn’t affect the Gov law enforcement power,’ anyone would say that’s a huge win for the Gov. But it’s just so important for the political media to play this simplistic “it’s only total victory or crushing defeat” rhetorical game, that they can’t be bothered to create an accurate narrative of legislative compromise that is the norm in politics. And this is same media that plays the winners-and-losers game will later decry why can’t each side compromise for the good of all citizens?

I said it because that happened to friends of mine when we were having lunch in Studio City. One guy saw this attractive woman eating lunch, said she was an actress, that he’d seen a bunch of her movies but couldn’t remember where. I didn’t recognize her. My other friend turns around and says, “oh, that’s so-and-so, she’s a porn star.” He then named some of her movies. First guy turned beet red. It was a good laugh. A very LA moment.

Does this new bill look something closer to what DeSantis wanted or what the Legislature wanted? I wish someone with less binary vision (ahem) would write a real assessment of what went on. Because to me it looks like they were at a stalemate. The is a face-saving compromise for both sides to move forward. The Gov retains all law enforcement power. The Legislature gets a board with DeSantis, 2 DeSantis allies and an egg farmer, without one legislative member on it. The new board gets money to spend. The Gov gets new powers to remove elected officials for not cooperating with immigration enforcement. What great achievement did the Legislature get that weakens the Governor? 🤷

@TheFIREorg I didn’t see “AP Gets Mandatory Access to all White House Events” under the First Amendment. If viewpoint discrimination was unconstitutional, AP would have been sued out of existence.

@dsware123 @TheFloridaMike Fun fact: US Gulf Coast shoreline is longer than Mexico’s. Mexico: 1,483 mi US: 1,700 mi Gulf of America by default. (Mexico’s Atlantic coast is 1,743 mi, but ~260 mi are part of the Yucatan Peninsula that faces the Caribbean Sea.)
