Particularly jarring since in Omar's case we found out that the mainstream media was literally colluding with her campaign to suppress the stories about her marriage scandals
The tabloids? Psshh. You'd be more informed by reading The Babylon Bee than by reading the Strib

it's hilarious when tabloids break a big story. it's a perfect boy who cried wolf situation. they spend so much time reporting people who were probed by aliens and watchdogging celebs "addicted to drugs" because they wore sweat pants to the grocery store that no one gives them credit for actually being able to break anything.

msm media sits on stories unless directed to

sat on all JFK’s late-night activities until after his murder
sat on all of Clinton’s late-night activities until drudge ran it
sat on all the abuses of our freedoms and liberty under the guise of national security

anyone else “eats food incorrectly” its a massive story

None of what she said here was wrong, or an answer to my question. "We should do X" os not the same as "X has zero downsides".

Additionally she didnt say printing the budget wont cause issues, she doesnt mention expanding the money supply at all.

Lol, for a scientist, you really have trouble coming to logical conclusions. Her policies add up to something ridiculous like $40 trillion in cost (and that's not even factoring in the economic damage these policies would do, just the government expenses alone!) and her answer to the question of "how will you pay for it" is "just increase government spending". You just wont stumble across sums like that by taxing the rich or closing some tax loopholes or by the FED going for some mild forms of QE. Such a sum can only be produced by the FED massively expanding the money supply. There is no other realistic way.

PARIS (Reuters) - An IT worker who killed four people at Paris police headquarters with a knife last week had a USB drive with personal details about his colleagues, French daily Le Parisien reported on Monday.

The attacker on Thursday killed three police officers and an administrative worker before being shot dead by police. Initial investigations have revealed that the Martinique-born man, a convert to Islam, had contacts with individuals who are likely to belong to an Islamist Salafist movement.

Le Parisien reported on its website that a USB memory device found in the assailant’s house had personal details about several dozens of his colleagues at police headquarters, as well as several Islamic State propaganda videos.

The paper added that it was not clear whether the attacker had shared that information with others.

Authorities fear that police officers’ lives could be at risk if details about their identities or addresses fall in the wrong hands.

Police sources could not immediately comment on the paper’s report.

French Prime Minister Edouard Philippe told a weekly on Sunday that he had ordered inspectors to review procedures in the intelligence department of the police headquarters and anti-terror intelligence unit to detect signs of radicalisation among civil servants.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - A counterterrorism analyst with the U.S. Defense Intelligence Agency was arrested on Wednesday over charges he leaked classified materials about a foreign country’s weapons system to two journalists in 2018 and 2019, the U.S. Justice Department said in federal court filings on Wednesday.

good observation on Ilhan's divorce
its very conspicuous that she put so much effort into keeping a lid on it and pressuring her husband to stay in the marriage, then suddenly filed divorce papers so hastily that she's still on a foreign trip. Something happened that made her file for divorce from Ouagadougou instead of waiting until she's back in the states. The real story might be the story we don't know, yet.

Good. All leakers should be strung up.
