Laura Loomer has manically been tweeting about the NCTC for the past 12 hours. I would like to take this time to congratulate the NCTC as this is the first time in its history where it has ever been relevant.

"I have spent the last few weeks addressing and preparing for a military invasion by the President of the United States. No, I’m not a soldier or a foreign adversary. I’m the Governor of Illinois"

Hey! I did it! I wrote about national security! The thing I allegedly write about! othermeans.substack.com/p/going-down...

A fun fact about McCarthyism is that just two and a half years after he was condemned and censured, Sen. Joseph McCarthy drank himself to death at 48. Fevers break. Petty tyrants fall. Censorship and persecution drive good people to stand together and fight back.

i feel like i'm insane when i'm the only one who remembers Tucker's brown M&M monologue

The Inflation Reduction Act affected an Individual Retirement Account held by the Irish Republican Army.

Is Miller admitting he's a scalie?

A bit underplayed that the Homan sting didn't reportedly come out of a public corruption investigation, it was a counter-intelligence one. Which means they somehow made the not-very-far leap to him from initially targeting a foreign and almost certainly state actor.

this barely even made the news! www.nbcnews.com/politics/don...

Inverted Clausewitz, too. The strategy emerges from gunfights, strategy serves the gunfight. If you succeed in war, it is a result of gunfight. If you achieve your objectives, it is because gunfight. If you fail at gunfight, strategy fails with it.

You guys, so many Romance girlies are reading "On Tyranny" that they've broken the Goodreads recommendations algorithm. 10/10; no notes. #romancelandia

donald trump is bad relative to 'we gave every convicted felon in the united states a slip of paper with a number on it, drew one of those numbers at 8 PM on the first tuesday in november, and declared the winner our new president.'

This book details all of that and will result in you regularly being jumpscared by some of the worst characters in the Fox News expanded universe who now have cabinet positions

he came to trump's attention by lobbying to pardon other war criminals, including a guy who decapitated a teenage civilian in front of his squad and whose own men fucked up his sights so he'd stop shooting random women. he belongs to a church which considers slavery and marital rape to be mandatory.

essentially every business he has ever been involved in is fraudulent. he preferentially does business with dictators. he sent thugs to threaten to kill a baby. pete hegseth stole money from veterans. he lies about being involved in war crimes. he's a serial rapist and domestic abuser.

i think one thing people have a hard time grasping is that the central figures of the trump administration are not bad as in "the worst republican blowhard you know," but bad as in "the worst people you have ever heard of." donald trump is a serial rapist whose best friend was a pedophile.

Also just as a reminder/history lesson, the A-10 was designed on the basis of a Vietnam threat environment: you could fly under the SAMs and could armor your way out of AAA SA-6s and ZSU-23s in the Yom Kippur War a few years later showed how this was now an obsolete concept

If Trump has a heart attack or something similar in office and we see people partying in the street, outrage over those images is gonna define right wing politics for a long time.

Meanwhile in Russia: Vladimir Solovyov and his guests rejoiced that under Trump, America is abandoning its fundamental principles, including freedom of the press. Once again, he predicted that Trump's America will join Russia in its fight against Europe. www.youtube.com/watch?v=u3It...

what it feels like on contemporary conservative MilTwitter with its obsession on lethality:

Me and who? 👉👈🥺

I actually don't think it's just the British hard left on X. There's a lot of American hard leftists that basically view this place as essentially the Taiwan for Bidenists

If you think A-10 discourse is bad, wait until the generation who grew up with Call of Duty is the largest demographic in congress and we're trying to get rid of the AC-130

The Cult of the Offensive, but its for a close support plane that should have been decommissioned before I was born

Another example of the same phenomenon; they are killing people so they can make videos of them killing people. There is not actually any policy that Venezuela or Colombia can enact to satisfy them, because the purpose is just content creation. Podcasters with the power of the Federal government.

This is what I mean when I talk about why all of talk of a modus vivendi or a negotiated surrender is futile; the driving engine of right-wing politics now is grievance podcasting. What they want is to have access to modernity, and also to be frothing with fury and hatred towards it at all times.

I hadn't seen this photo from the ICE protests in Broadview. This is Rev. David Black from Chicago. He's been regularly protesting at the Broadview ICE facility.

When he was in the military he probably got irritated that he had to shave while a bunch of mostly black soldiers did not have to since this skin condition primarily affects black people. It's a toddler throwing a tantrum because he perceives something as unfair.

Latest projection suggests that more than 505,000 adults and kids have died due to USAID's illegal dismantling by Musk, Rubio, and Lewin Source: www.impactcounter.com/dashboard?vi...

aoc should simply eat the smaller, less popular representatives and absorb their power

Two days? Endless Legend 2 comes out tomorrow, we ain't got time for that

if neither you nor anyone you know is on a visa it is impossible to appreciate how badly greencard holders take being directly targeted

Not to be contrary but I think that's the same America or at least the same Disney. They were eager to jump in the direction they thought power was going 2019-23 in order to make profit and now in 2025 they think power is going the other way, they jump the other way. There was never a spine there.

They do this like every 12 years, I have to assume this is white people zodiac

After the August 2008 war, Russia bulldozed dozens of villages in occupied regions of South Ossetia (Tskhinvali, Georgia) to ensure there could be no return 190,000 were displaced, ancestral villages erased totally Looked just like this If we stopped Russia then, it would be a different world

there are unpleasant people on both here and X who will pop into your mentions but on here they're mainly just people doing that 2018-2020 left twitter thing where they do a weird impression of a high school bully and on there it's republican congressional candidates and/or literal nazis

this is a recurring discourse epistemological problem I think in that unpleasant right wingers are just stupid and/or bigoted, unpleasant lefties are often crazy in a way that’s can sometimes be kind of stimulating to interact with. so they get signal boosted and inform perceptions of the left more.

me, eight drinks in: WRONG, DOC. THE ANSWER IS PENIS. IT'S GOT A BIG FREUDIAN CULT OF DAKKA AROUND THE 30MM GUN. IT DOESN'T MATTER HOW MANY JOBS THE F-35 MAKES OR HOW MUCH MORE SURVIVABLE IT IS IN CONTESTED AIRSPACE BECAUSE THE ANSWER IS PENIS.

for all people mock it wikipedia is genuinely one of the wonders of the modern world

It's honestly incredibly funny how the A-10 fetish is driven by a fundamental misunderstanding of what CAS is, down to what "close" is in reference to, and this is probably Star Wars' fault more than anything

So google maps updated some satellite footage, here’s one single Ukrainian village. One out of thousands
