ProPublica reports Dan Bongino got a polygraph waiver for his security clearance These exams catch foreign ties & blackmail risks Waivers at this level are unprecedented & part of a broader purge of career national-security experts I explained on @theweekendmsnow.bsky.social 👇 - TN

US spy satellites built by SpaceX send signals in the “wrong direction” - so Elon is sharing national security information with other countries? apple.news/AnxDnk2TbR7u...

Touché! Which party doesn't feel comfortable w/ethnic names? So much so that upwardly mobile brown people *in this century* that want to be in "the club" feel the need to anglicize their monikers. NOTE: The GOP base is very stingy when it comes to doling out its coveted white cards. 🦋 is.gd/gZnid3

Plz read this imp public service 🧵 Nuremberg is out, and I am making a special request you go see it. Go see Nuremberg: not only will it teach you about the Nazis’ many, many crimes, including the Holocaust which is (rightly) the one thing people know about the Third Reich.

This is so good.

It is not that I love Bezos, but am sincerely happy to see Blue Origin starting to be a capable competitor for SpaceX, which is part of Elon’s empire and is set on fleecing governments to enrich the owner and screw the people. www.geekwire.com/2025/second-...

More impunity for the elite, courtesy of the Trump regime.

(🧵) This thread from a retired journalism professor who helped usher in the era of metajournalism in the 2010s—and has written a book on the relationship between Trump and Epstein as part of his NYT-bestselling Proof Series—explains how to report properly on the Trump-Epstein Scandal. Here we go.

Trump’s first nominee for Attorney General of the United States

I thought Trump said he had cut all ties with Epstein years before this?

The America First guy has brought in 566 foreign workers during his 5 years in office to work at his companies instead of hiring Americans. And counting.

Mail-in voting provides crucial ballot access for people with disabilities, seniors, and voters who lack reliable transportation. Any attempt to restrict mail-in voting is a direct assault on our democratic process.

If the country used Washington’s vote by mail system we would have more participation in democracy and clear, auditable, paper trails.

Reagan-appointed federal judge: "justice is supposed to be administered...equally for everyone, without fear or favor. This is the opposite of what is happening now....Day after day, I observed in silence as President Trump, his aides, & his allies dismantled so much of what I dedicated my life to."

Pardons are now available for anyone who can pay for them. This is the most corrupt President in history.

I keep thinking how #project2025 was ignored by most folks—and look where we are. @hcrichardson.bsky.social please write about this. @redwineblueusa.bsky.social @indivisible.org @50501movement.bsky.social @teslatakedown.com We need mass awareness and a plan!

US Army soldiers stationed in Germany are advised to report to German food banks to get something to eat, because Hegseth has ordered the closing of the mess halls. The soldiers feel humiliated. www.sueddeutsche.de/bayern/deuts...

Important read from @drmoore.bsky.social on the defense of corruption of the church: www.christianitytoday.com/2025/11/nazi...

🚨BREAKING: The Department of Homeland Security quietly formalized sweeping changes to a federal immigration database, turning it into a national “voter verification” tool that appears to sidestep federal privacy protections and will make it easier to remove large numbers of voters from the rolls.

I love this approach and hope more people adopt it. “I grew up in a country where this doesn’t happen…”

What kind of idiot would trust an ass clown of Elon’s caliber with their life safety, personal information or your money? A delude douchenozzle apple.news/A-e75zO4BT22...

This story is insane. A man who posted a meme of Trump saying “we have to get over it” in a discussion about the CK shooting has been in jail for 2 months with a $2M bond. Meanwhile, the man who actually threatened to kill Hakeem Jeffries is out on bail.

Whether you call them “incel caminos” or “wankpanzers” the cybertruck has few civilian uses. However, a fleet of centrally controlled rugged troop transports is perfect for a robot army. electrek.co/2025/10/13/e...

For the last 100 years Cars=freedom. Musk says, trade it for a psychopathic robot risking your life so I can be powerful and rich. How many people are going to give up freedom for that? apple.news/AdnWTCgg4SM-...

A pardon "following months of efforts by Zhao to boost the Trump family’s own crypto company." Unprecedented corruption.

Someone call DHS and tell them there was a terrorist attack on the White House and it has been partially destroyed.

I am SO excited about this!!!!!

"From our vantage point as a fundamentally innumerate body of milquetoast thinkers who are wrong about everything, holding fewer sincere beliefs is the key to electoral success."

No rain. No rainbows.

Arc de Trump 😐 A CBS News reporter asked Trump who the new monument is meant to honor. Trump: “Me.”

Every city should do this. More participation is better.

All of this, in violation of the Constitution.

I remember being invited to a wine pairing at one of these places (with the best wine selection in town) featuring natural and orange wines. This article sorta sums up my reaction. apple.news/A7dgBjtSYTn2...
