One thing that I find concerning is that he says they give him the name of the animal and just ask him to point to the correct one. I believe recall is part of what is being tested there, and that is not being tested when they offer the name of the animal and make it multiple choice.
This is the first time I've ever heard of the song and I have no intention of seeking it out. I'm surprised to hear there's been "incessant news coverage" of it, as I absorb quite a bit of news. Hopefully the writer takes this chance to grow and realize the world is much bigger than their bubble.
Border Patrol agent Lairmore testifies that he was not injured by the sandwich, but he felt the impact through his ballistic vest.
The sandwich came apart and "kind of exploded" on his chest upon impact, he says.
"I could smell the onions and mustard."
Note, none of the below organizations can ever be trusted as a source of any news whatsoever. This decision makes them public relations outlets at best, and more likely propaganda.

Mars was the Roman god of war.
That’s why we say ‘martial arts,' ‘martial law,' and 'court martial.'
Marshall was the Roman god of designer fashion at discount prices.
That’s why we have Marshall’s.
New statement from WHO:
"The World Health Organization (WHO) emphasizes that there is currently no conclusive scientific evidence confirming a possible link between autism and use of acetaminophen (also known as paracetamol) during pregnancy." www.who.int/news/item/24...
Spinning "a player who was expected to be drafted in the 1st/2nd round fell into the 5th round" as a Donald Trump Success Story is actually a really good example of how things work around there
Leavitt on Shedeur Sanders: "All I will say is the president put out a statement, and a few rounds later he was drafted, so I think the facts speak for themselves."
Our first post is a big one...Statement from Keker, Van Nest & Peters on Trump’s Latest Executive Order “Preventing Abuses of the Legal System and the Federal Court.”

The Trump administration is scrubbing the CDC’s website of documents on reproductive rights issues, sexual health, intimate partner violence, and more.
I'm trying to save them.
You can find the deleted docs at cdcguidelines.com - I'll be adding more over the weekend.

While the world marks Holocaust Remembrance Day, people in American cities are hiding in their attics from a government knock on the door
Ed Martin, the interim US Attorney for DC, previously gave an award to a Jan. 6 rioter and alleged "Nazi sympathizer," who:
- went to work with a "Hitler mustache"
- blamed the spread of COVID-19 on Jews
- allegedly told coworkers "Hitler should have finished the job."
*(Mini) Katie’s Sidebar:
Appeals court: trial court did not err when it allowed jury to hear evidence of other sexual assaults by Trump against Jessica Leeds & Natasha Stoynoff.
The evidence was “relevant because…it had a tendency to prove that Mr. Trump did sexually assault Ms. Carroll.”
JUST HITTING THE DOCKET:
A federal appeals court has DENIED Trump’s request for a new trial in @ejeancarroll.bsky.social’s $5 million dollar verdict for defamation and for sexual abuse.

The Biden administration announced on Friday that it would forgive another $4.28 billion in student loan debt for 54,900 borrowers who work in public service.
The obvious problem with this is that AI seems to fall for the same both sides concepts that humans sometimes fall for. Will it decide that a straight forward story about Ivermectin being ineffective against COVID is biased because there are people that claim the opposite?
Call me crazy, but I think Justin Sun, a Chinese national being prosecuted for fraud by the SEC, sending Trump $18 million should be a bigger story
The direct enrichment of Trump by a foreign national weeks before he takes office has merited no coverage in the NYT or Washington Post
Such actions clearly encourage the spread of posts with no accreditation to spread more easily than those supported by citations. While that doesn't mean all of those posts are bad, it certainly is more friendly to conspiracy theorists and opposed to fact checks of the insanity.
Saquon Barkley incentives: $250k for 1,500 total yards, another $250k for 2,000; $500k first team All-Pro, $250k for second team or Pro Bowl; $250k for NFC championship and $250k for a Super Bowl championship. Yard and All-Pro incentives also increase 2025 salary. #Eagleswww.nfl.com/news/inside-...
Nominating Sebastian Gorka to be the National Director for Counterterrorism is a grievous insult to both the American Jewish and Muslim communities and further imperils our democracy. Another obscene addition to the incoming Trump administration.
This should terrify every American. It doesn’t matter where you stand on immigration. Using our military as a domestic law enforcement tool at mass scale will destroy its core purpose, turn the American people against them, and damage the institution for decades.
Just showed colleagues “There’s A Horse In The Hospital,” which apparently some folks haven’t seen before.
Now it’s like the horse is coming back to the hospital, but he’s super mad at the doctors who helped get him out last time and thinks he should’ve been able to stay the whole time, I guess?
The question we all have to answer is why are so many voters completely ignorant of the actions of the people they're supposed to be holding accountable and what can we do about it?
If people did not understand the choice they were making when they chose Trump, that's not a Democratic party problem that's a fundamental problem of our democracy. We can't have a system where creating an informed populace is the sole responsibility of the comms team on a given campaign.
... He then went down to 2d floor. Due to his unusual path, he emerged as a lone rioter behind police lines. This later spurred a false conspiracy theory, amplified by Sinclair Broadcast Grp, that he was a fed, as
