“Judge Orders Trump to Temporarily Restore CNN, MS NOW, and Politico Access to White House”
Another stupid and meaningless gesture on behalf of the Trump administration that everyone knew was an overreach but it allowed him to pretend he did something meaningful. Whoever’s advising Trump is worthless: this makes him look thinskinned and weak which he is.
And it allows for the credentialed classes to portray themselves as important protectors of democracy.
It wasn’t over reach at all. There is zero right to be front and center in the press room. This judge overstepped, will probably rule for CNN. The appeal will overturn and establish a precedent that the press room functions at the will of the president.
Don’t stop believing, hold onto that feeling but I don’t see it happening. We’ll see I suppose.
Stinky:
Do you have a list of which news organizations cannot be barred from White House briefings? How do I get this publication added to the list?
It’s right there in one of the penumbras and emanations Neph. I don’t see it but some judge will whether it’s there or not.
The move should have just been to move to back of press pool and never call on them.
The judge will rule that nobody can be excluded, and logic will follow that the press pool will follow a rotation schedule to let every independent news organization under the sun in, greatly diluting the power of the big organizations. That is what I think will happen.
Not a lawyer and whatnot but, rightly or wrongly, Trump can’t wipe his ass without getting an injunction slapped on him at which point he either gives up or loses the case. There are exceptions of course but that’s his MO.
I’m going a pin a piece of notebook paper on my chest reading “PrEsS” and waltz into the next White House press conference. It’s my right, yes?
Should be actually.
Disagree – the WHCA believes they own the process and are the sole arbiters of “who” gets a seat. Part of their argument is they have resources to ensure coverage and share with the pool. This provided an opportunity for alternate news outlets to challenge the WHCA and also show they have the resources and capabilities to provide coverage. RAV did a fantastic job highlighting that fact.
Kick them all out and turn the Press Room back into a swimming pool. Fill the pool with piranha, then invite the press back in.
Nothing new under the sun

Iran hardliners said the quiet part out loud that their goal is keep oil prices high.
So oil dropped in price with Sauid news and now Iran threatens to expand to the Indian Ocean, driving oil back up.
If we had any halfway competent stateman in the government, why they might be able to use that info to finally get the rest of the world on board.
On board with what, getting their ships sunk? Invading? It’s a hard sell when we’re the ones who fucked up the former uneasy but perfectly functional situation.
Has any naval war vessel except Iranian been sunk?
Perfectly functional is a stretch. I know we are the idiot servants of the demon Israel attacking the peace loving Iranians whose only crime is opposing the colonizer Jews and all, but the peace loving Iranian opposition to colonizer Jews did occasionally cause turmoil before this happened.
Starting the war while unwilling to go in and finish it was likely a mistake, but casting us as the villains of the piece is getting old.
I’m criticizing US policy, not Israeli policy but continue to set up those diversions in order to distract from the worst foreign policy move since Vietnam. Even if this war was a good idea it’s been waged incompetently.
Not villains <<<Jar – dupes. I’m perfectly good with us stopping the dup-i-tude at the earliest opportunity.
“the worst foreign policy move since Vietnam”
*Laughs in Iraqi*
Yup, we are stacking up our dead, trying to put out the fires in all our cities, and weeping for our sunk ships.
How do you narrow your gaze in Iraqi?
Lots of tankers and cargo ships have need hit by Iran and the American Navy. At some of those sunk.
We have not lost any manned naval vessels. We have evacuated and effectively lost the Fifth Fleet headquarters at Bahrain.
We are talking about Euroweenies, right? They won’t ever help us.
Also I imagine there is laughing in Iraqi at the presumption that would be welcomed for liberating the Iranian people from the tyranny of the mullahs.
The Iraqi War was stupid and costly. It didn’t cost us access to the Persian Gulf and endanger the world economy.
Fifth Fleet headquarters at Bahrain
Who knew that Bahrain was a U.S. possession?
Killing people is easy Swiss, winning a war isn’t.
Has any naval war vessel except Iranian been sunk?
Haven’t you seen the videos released by Iran of US ships burning?
“The Iraqi War was stupid and costly. It didn’t cost us access to the Persian Gulf and endanger the world economy.”
Peace in our time, right Drake?
I was on the first big war since Vietnam. It went too well so the neocons decided to keep on doing it.
Drake, you’ve got to remember that neo-cons were former proggies – failure would be no detriment to their beliefs.
The rest of the world being rational is almost as unlikely as the statesmanship thing.
I’m not sure what the point of keeping oil prices high is, when you can’t sell any oil.
Well, I guess damaging the economies of the Satanic West is its own reward.
Energy Secretary Chris Wright opposed a blanket ban Wednesday, warning that it could ultimately reduce domestic refining.
“The blunt tool of banning diesel exports definitely doesn’t work because the U.S. exports a lot of diesel,” Wright said.
Wright said refiners unable to export excess diesel could be forced to cut production, putting upward pressure on gasoline and jet fuel prices.
Wright separately suggested that changes in where U.S. diesel is shipped were more likely.
Sanity. He’ll be ignored.
If we have an abundance of diesel as the producers say they do, then why are the prices so high (ignoring our own retarded regulations that is and that it isn’t a true free market operating on basic economics)
It’s a global market. Supply is constrained elsewhere due to the war.
Due to war and lack of refining capacity due to the climate boogy man.
I believe the “ultra-low” sulfur restrictions add to the problem. Makes refining more complex/difficult and makes some of the abundance exist in fuel that can’t be used here.
Don’t we import Canadian oil and sell it back as diesel?
If we stopped selling them diesel, wouldn’t they stop selling us oil?
Sven and Ole worked together and both were laid off, so off they went to the unemployment office. Asked his occupation, Ole said, “Panty stitcher; I sew the elastic onto cotton panties.”
The clerk looked up panty stitcher. Finding it classified as unskilled labor, she gave him $300 a week unemployment pay.
Sven was asked his occupation. “Diesel fitter,” he replied. Since diesel fitter was a skilled job, the clerk gave Sven $600 a week.
When Ole found out, he was furious. He stormed back into the unemployment office to find out why his friend and co-worker was collecting twice his pay.
The clerk explained that panty stitchers were unskilled labor and diesel fitters were skilled labor.
“What skill?” yelled Ole. “I sew the elastic on, Sven pulls it over his head and says,
…”Yep, diesel fitter.”

Although I will say, I kind of guessed on the boat question, and I’m not positive my reasoning for the answer I picked is correct.
The greater the surface area of the boat touching the water, the more drag it has. Hence hydrofoils.

Trump’s new anti-cartel policy: we’re gonna lawyer ’em out of existence!
Here I thought maybe he’d realistically attack the intractable issue of demand instead of once again chasing after supply.
Sic the Karens on them.
Solves a lot of problems.
Drop lawyers into cartel territory without parachutes?
Now that has merit.
Serious question: How would Trump or anybody “realistically attack the intractable issue of demand”?
Build a society that normal people don’t constantly want to escape from?
I have some ideas on how to make that happen, too…
That’s the absurdity about all of our drug policy, nothing really unique to Trump.
They could of course look at how smoking was handled which was far more cultural than carceral.
Homple — fully legalize the use, manufacture, and sale of drugs. All drugs. No ‘schedules’, minimal prescription requirement, if any. The cartels will be gone, or so radically transformed as to make no difference, in under 18 months.
“But people will die!” Everyone dies.
“But, but, but people will do things they shouldn’t.” Like they aren’t already?
Okay, probably not ‘realistic’ but it’s the only real solution.
There are two solutions to the drug problem: 1) absolute tolerance — legalize everything; 2) absolute intolerance — authorize the police to execute everyone in possession of any amount on the spot. Of course, people will still use under solution (2), but they get eliminated eventually.
absolute tolerance — legalize everything
And watch people die!
Which is true, it will be just as bad as it is now, possibly even a little worse. Though not as bad as option 2.
Beau:
I am sympathetic to total legalization. My reluctance to wholeheartedly endorse this solution in real life is the examples that we have now of the junkies infesting big cities. LA and San Fran have decriminalized drug use for the most part and have hordes of homeless junkies infesting the streets. That is a problem that needs to be solved.
I’d be OK with locking anyone under the influence out in public (for some reasonable amount of time). You want to do drugs? Fine, but you better have somewhere private to crash.
The idea that the cartels will be ‘gone’ under total legalization is one that needs further examination. The cartels aren’t stupid or particularly hidebound – they have been diversifying into other rackets and businesses for decades now. Think other kinds of smuggling, prostitution, counterfeit medications, waste disposal, various types of electronic crime…the list goes on. The window for shutting down the south American cartel model by cutting off their dope profits, closed back in the late 80’s.
None of that is to say that legalization isn’t a good idea in its own right…
I don’t have any libertarian objections to tweaking the laws in favor of people who can behave like responsible adults.
At some point in/around the 40’s or 50’s, we got away from vagrancy laws and work camps, and I don’t think that it’s been to our benefit.
Jimbo, I agree with you. Enforce the laws against vagrancy, et. al., including those against ‘public intoxication.
Everything’s connected, you can’t just pull out one thing and leave the rest ‘as is’.
But the only solution to “the demand problem” is supply. Just as with all else.
Isn’t pot legal in Cali, but the cartels are still in the pot business because their weed is cheaper than the legal stuff (because of taxes)?
I doubt that cartels won’t find some other business venture once drugs went away.
Legalization.
Oh wait, you said realistically.
Have
NancyMelania lecture school kids?@Beau Knott I came here to make the same point. There are already laws against being intoxicated in public, and most of them are of the “lock ’em up ’til they sober up, write ’em a ticket” sort of thing. And the citations are generally small, so the worst case scenario for the bums would be a few days in jail until they’re let out for time served. Kinda win-win, I’d say.
Legalization will lead to less deaths because fentanyl can’t compete against heroin in a free market.
You will never convince people that once all drugs are legalized, you will start enforcing vagrancy laws so you don’t end up with the hordes of addicts shitting in the street.
Start enforcing the vagrancy laws now. Clean up the streets.
Then you can talk the normies into legalizing drugs.
Homple, restrict Narcan.
No idea what’s really going on.

You know about Mr. Dean’s razor – who is telling me this and why do they want me to believe it?
Why would any of us care about the death of any Iranian general? Why would the IRGC want us to know?
Interesting. Nobody is saying who the group that IRGC attacked, and which killed a Brigadier General, actually was.
I’m curious why a Brigadier General is participating in an attack on a five man cell, myself.

President Trump apparently didn’t get the memo … CNN and POLITICO say their reporters are still being denied access to the White House despite a judge ordering the administration to restore access.
As you know, the judge threw his support behind CNN, POLITICO and MS NOW by ruling Thursday that their journalists should immediately have their press credentials returned so they could enter the White House and cover the commander-in-chief.
The ruling came in early Thursday, but when CNN and POLITICO reporters showed up to the White House to do their jobs, they reportedly were turned away.”
https://www.tmz.com/2026/09/24/cnn-and-politico-still-barred-from-entering-white-house/
Good.
Apparently, there are a couple of cases out there that (can be read to?) say that, yes, the President can control who can come to White House press events, but he can’t bar somebody for the “wrong reasons”, namely, because they are too mean to him.
So Trump, of course, had to go yap on the socials about how he was barring those organizations because they are too mean to him.
The great thing about this interpretation of the law is that you can bar anyone as long as you lie about why.
You are describing a Prog wet dream.

As you know, the judge threw his support behind CNN, POLITICO and MS NOW by ruling
I realize this is how most people see the world, but there is always some miniscule chance the judge merely found the legal arguments of one side more compelling than that of the other, while doing his best to conceal his loathing for everyone concerned.
Caught a clip on FB about David Axelrod representing CNN in a defamation case (that CNN lost) and that was pretty much the attitude of the judge – both counsels were admonished.
Considering this is the same judge who sent Talarico to jail for 20 years for, err, not being at the J6 mostly peaceful protest, I’m not willing to give him the benefit of the doubt.
Assume you mean Tarrio, not Talarico. But damn I like the way that reads.
“Former Sen. Kyrsten Sinema’s ex-bodyguard turned lover allegedly trashed her Arizona home while she was out of town — causing more than $200,000 in damage as he tossed dozens of valuable paintings into her pool.

Ammel, 39, allegedly threatened to destroy the former senator’s artwork every 10 minutes if she didn’t concede to his demands and make a post to X, the outlet reported, citing court documents.”

Just five days later, 25-year-old Naomi Greer-Wilkinson boarded the ride with her siblings. She also collapsed shortly after the ride ended and was taken to a hospital, where she was found to have massive brain bleeding inside the skull that required emergency brain surgery. She remains in a vegetative state in the hospital, unable to speak or move and dependent on a ventilator. Her family filed the lawsuit on her behalf.
Their attorney, Gary Dordick, said the firm has been retained by more than 100 clients who suffered brain injuries after riding the X2 roller coaster within the past two years.

Something is going on between Her and the police chief. It seems as if he decided to use the #MeToo rules to fire the first shot at her. The texts were pretty innocuous. Some stupid shit about weiners.
In a sane world, people would realize how stupid these #MeToo rules are and everyone would back off. In the world we live in, the stupid rules will once again be used at the next GOP pol who says something stupid. She is only getting off because she has enough Intersectional Points to skate.

It must have worked because we never heard of any of the houses we built being terrorized by demons.
I have tiger repelling rocks for sale. Reasonable prices.
it sounds like a 6.75 L V8
1.5 liter V16 or GTFO
Thanks nepo baby RINO Kean!
The Lowering Commuting Costs Act would create a federal income tax deduction totaling more than $4,080 a year or $340 a month, for personal commuting expenses, including the cost of gas, public transit and tolls.

Does that include congestion charges? That would make perfect sense.
Or hear me out, dissolve the federal DOT and get rid of the federal
Fuel tax.
Let states compete with their fuel tax rates.
“In its push to subordinate women, the American right is embracing raunch
Raunch, vulgarity, a boorish entitlement to women’s sexual service, and the aesthetics – and, indeed, the business – of pornography are being embraced by the right…
After all, the transformation of the Republican party from a Christian culture that prioritized sexual prohibition to a pornified culture that celebrates sexual force has been a stylistic change, not a policy change: Republican politicians are still voting to make casual, premarital, non-procreative sex as dangerous, expensive, and risky as they can possibly make it – at least for women. If the left’s celebration of porn as a free speech issue always somewhat undermined their supposed commitment to women’s equality, the right’s onetime finger-wagging at pornography’s glorification of women’s sexual humiliation always clashed with the reality that the Christian right shared the same message and goal. Sexual prohibition and sexual force, after all, are just two different styles of what is ultimately a single project: the use of sex to subordinate women. At least now we can stop pretending that they’re not the same thing.”

So which is it?
They just like ladies in the streets and freaks in the sheets.
Take that, haters
Chinese electric vehicles’ ultrafast charging is only getting faster.
On Wednesday, Geely Auto unveiled technology that can charge an electric vehicle battery from 10% to 70% in just 4.5 minutes, a leap analysts called a significant development for the Chinese auto group.
Geely is joining the ranks of BYD, which last year overtook Tesla as the world’s biggest EV maker, as well as CATL, the world’s largest EV battery maker, both of which this year rolled out around 5-minute EV ultrafast charging.
By comparison, some of the fastest-charging EVs available in the U.S. currently can take roughly 20 minutes, analysts said.
Faster than you can pump a tank of fuel into your Ram pickup.
I really want to know how that charge rate impacts battery longevity.
Mind you IMHO for 60% or more of EV drivers this charge rate thing is blown out of proportion to knock EVs.

What could be a better illustration of equality and sexual liberation than a single empowered woman’s sexual desires being satisfied by two or three or a dozen men at once?
With the ability to change if it was consensual or not at any time she chooses.

It only takes five minutes to charge, but you have to wait an hour for the battery to cool off enough to get back in the car.
