    “Cry havoc and let slip the DOGE of war!”

    Those who cheered as J-6 American prisoners were locked in solitary for 18 months without trial, now suddenly fight tooth and nail for foreign terrorists’ "due process". — Buck Sexton

      Most excellent. Bound to happen in a fair society. Glad we still seem to sort of care about that.

      Please love yourself.

        It’s odd.

        Eleven Republican state attorneys general have joined the DOJ as plaintiffs.

        But these guys aren’t worried about antitrust, they’re worried about censoring right wing content.

        I’ll preempt Loki and point out the market reaction.

        Shares were up more than 2% during afternoon trading.

        You were warned.

            I agree there's plenty wrong with Google. But the DOJ case is weak.

              Yeah this is to energize the base I think. And a minor warning shot over the bow of google.

              The fundamental problem is what the administration is angry about isn't really antitrust. But they can't really sue them for unfair editing practices.

              This is one of those cases of pretending they're a nail because all you got is a hammer.

              You were warned.
