Agreed! It’s absolutely insane what passes the public by these days; unfortunately, I think that the extremely fast residence time for anything in the news cycle is getting worse these days…

Thank goodness for the Lincoln Project! Maybe the bully in chief will eventually come to realize he’s not in control here…
They still can; the day is still young…
A Heritage spokesperson told CyberScoop after publication that the organization was not “hacked.” Instead, the spokesperson said “an organized group stumbled upon a two-year-old archive of The Daily Signal website that was available on a public-facing website owned by a contractor. The information obtained was limited to usernames, names, email addresses, and incomplete password information of both Heritage and non-Heritage contributors, as well as article comments and the IP address of the commentor.”
At least they’re admitting to being incompetent…
Absolutely despicable! Thank you for summarizing all of these details, this story has such sprawl it’s difficult to capture just how all the issues factor into one another anymore. Really hope that justice starts to play out in the long term, but I’m not convinced that will happen on account of the corruption emanating from the State; the Kansas Bureau of Investigation decided to involve CBI in the matter, indicating the rot likely permeates much of the state bureaucracy as well.
There’s also the attempt to undermine Kansas’ 2016 Open Records Act in preventing the release of pertinent communications by officials and court records during and shortly before the raid (which many anti-transparency activists in the Kansas GOP are trying to use to get rid of the KORA (1 and 2)).
Most definitely!
At least where I am, they’re in the most uptown bougie strip mall they can get into; same situation with Whole Foods. Starting to shop exclusively at the two state-wide/local stores that don’t have these issues, but wish more folks had access to quality local grocers who pay well and support unions.
That’s a good question, never heard about this before now…
Haha thank you! The first time was definitely a very scary experience, I felt the same way you do now; hope that you’re not too rattled and doing better now!
Yes! I’ve had this before also; luckily was able to get in to see an optometrist who, after she ruled out retinal detachment, told me exactly what it was and said something to the effect of “next time it happens just sit back and enjoy the show”.
Do not recommend either.
Absolutely! I get it if you’re stocking up for weather disasters to a degree, but the number of folks who rely strictly on bottled water is too high. Seems that some combination of advertising + fear and convenience have made it too enticing to use single-use water bottles, though. ☹️
