Sure isn’t, Benny. Sure isn’t.

"You shall not press down upon the brow of labor this crown of thorns. You shall not crucify mankind upon a cross of gold".

Una delle più grosse stronzate che abbia mai sentito in vita mia. La natura non socialista del regime si rivela quando Albert Speer nel 1943 chiede di centralizzare la produzione bellica "alla Stalin" e Hitler rifiuta per timore della reazione degli industriali.

+++ NOTIZIA: ESCE IL MIO PRIMO LIBRO +++ Nella prima immagine si vede il compimento di un progetto politico: la conquista conservatrice della Corte Suprema USA con la nomina di Amy Coney Barrett nel settembre 2020, consolidando una maggioranza conservatrice (1/5)

Chiudo quest'anno con una bella intervista a Bob Rackleff, membro del team di speechwriter di Jimmy Carter. Per capire meglio cos'ha funzionato e cosa no. Buona lettura! www.ilfoglio.it/esteri/2024/...

Al solito, quando c'è da capire un fatto dell'America, o la portata di un personaggio (in questo caso #JimmyCarter), Jefferson e @matteomuzio.bsky.social sono una garanzia: mai banalità, o cose trite e ritrite

“Beware of the aggressive talk about Greenland, the Panama Canal and Canada. It's an after-the-fact way of justifying Putin's aggression in Ukraine—i.e. militarily powerful nations get to have their way. The new colonialism” — Richard Stengel

Over on X, Musk continues to gaslight the undereducated maga crowd about how government works. He’s also accusing the U.S. government of mishandling tax dollars. This is all to sow seeds of doubt and empower his mission to not just dismantle our institutions, but to steal money from Americans.

Small point most of you missed from presser yesterday. Prez said the new Syrian regime are *not* terrorists. So the West did *not* causes Syrians to be abandoned to terrorists. Please extend my trolls your every sympathy for this propaganda disaster.

Tempo di rimetterlo a posto

President-elect Elon Musk's vice president, Donald Trump, is having a meltdown right now. What's the brilliant tactic of changing his demand to extend the debt ceiling for 5 years when 38 Republicans voted against extending it for 2 years? Or is he just typing out of anger? Chaos and dysfunction.

I’m old enough to remember when Trump shut down the government because he didn’t get more money for the wall than he had asked for, and then caved after he got less money for the wall than he had shut the government down for, but nonetheless claimed victory.

The strongest case I've seen urging Dems to act like a real opposition party is this by @jamellebouie.net. Buttering up Trump (and Musk), seeking "common ground" with backsliding into authoritarianism, is not only bad policy and bad politics, it's a disservice to the millions who voted against it.

I hope we can now stop pretending you-know-who is a genius.

Siccome si torna sempre dove si è stati bene, oggi mi potete trovare su @ilfoglio.bsky.social a pagina 3, dove parlo dell'ennesima metamorfosi di Mitch McConnell come leader del Gop internazionalista. Buona lettura!

Trump’s first term was a study in the capitulation of the Republican Party and conservative movement. Apparently Trump’s second term will be a study in the capitulation of…everyone else.

Questo è il tema centrale di qualunque discorso politico che dovranno fare i democratici in futuro. Ci sono zone giornalisticamente scoperte e su queste bisogna operare: prospect.org/politics/202...

Luigi Mangione's Goodreads review of Unabomber's manifesto: "When all other forms of communication fail, violence is necessary to survive. ... Peaceful protest is outright ignored ... so how long until we recognize that violence against those who lead us to such destruction is justified"

Uno dei momenti più bassi per il Gop: esaltare un'ex sostenitrice di Sanders soltanto perché glielo ordina il Boss.

Il commentatore pigro intellettualmente,spesso un trombone sovraesposto in televisione, dice con viso corrucciato a proposito di qualunque crisi, fosse anche il crollo del governo in Paraguay "L'Europa guarda impotente". Implicando quindi che un superstato europeo dovrebbe mettere becco ovunque...

Uno dei temi dei prossimi mesi sarà la gastrite dello speaker trumpista Mike Johnson

I understand Donald Trump for what he is a buffoon. Donald Trump wants you to be scared. Rather than being scared, I am proud to be a happy warrior for democracy. We all need to have the courage to not back down. Do not obey!

Trump nominated #FBI Dir #KashPatel is thin-skinned. His lawyers just sent me a letter threatening to sue my client @oliviaoftroye.com regarding perceived criticism, which was far tamer than many others have publicly said. Why her? Signals what is abt to begin Jan 20th. #lawfare #retaliation #chaos

I know Trump is reconsidering his SoD nominee, but it’s amazing he nominated him in the first place. Shows really poor judgement that you would give nuclear codes to an unhinged, drunken, violent psychopath. IDK, maybe it’s just me.

La candidatura di Pete Hegseth come segretario alla Difesa si sta sgretolando. A quel punto Trump nominerebbe Ron DeSantis, secondo il @wsj.com . Un altro floridiano in un governo zeppo di provenienti dal Sunshine State.

Stop calling Trump’s nominees “loyalists.” They are henchmen.

Il giornalismo locale salverà la democrazia, ne sono sempre più convinto... (continua)

Costui va catturato, estradato in italia, processato. E gli va offerto il the più volte al giorno. Ogni giorno. Un the buono e al miele italiano. E ogni volta, bevendolo, dovrà pensare alla differenza tra la democrazia che ha tradito, e la pastura del regime.

Elon Musk is posting a false pic on Twitter of 18 British soldiers bodies being returned from what he claims is Ukraine. It's a lie. The photo is from 2006 and the servicemen were killed in an air crash in Afghanistan. The Ukraine flag has been added.

People are often surprised when I tell them this: both Twitter and Facebook/insta/threads are now specifically engineered to downgrade, hide, suppress real journalism. If this platform is different, that's a huge change

At the 1992 RNC convention, some delegates held up signs that said “Thank God for AIDS” and “Family Rights Forever/Gay Rights Never.” Not exactly as catchy as “Mass Deportations Now,” but just as dehumanizing.

C'è molto piacere ad avere una timeline senza post di persone che non seguo né troll sotto ogni post

Putin will keep threatening WW3. He’s been doing it for years. But the rhetoric is aimed at firing up Russians, not starting an apocalypse. I explain all…

today is the Holodomor Remembrance Day, when we honor the memory of millions of Ukrainians who perished in Moscow-made genocide almost a century — while surviving another one. just because russia has never been punished for any of the endless crimes against humanity it committed

Per i democratici è il momento Roosevelt: Teddy, però

Quindi è un secondo Bill Barr. Non male, date le premesse.

Elon and David Sacks giving Bond villain speeches about Gaetz really mitigates against the idea that Trump played 4-D chess with a doomed nominee. He picked him bc he wanted him and the mood at Mar-a-Lago is ebullient, like they can't lose.

Sono bastati otto anni e improvvisamente la prima amministrazione Trump sembra un'accolita di competenti statisti. Il tempo è proprio galantuomo con chiunque.

Josh Hawley said Trump is “entitled to his Cabinet,” despite having voted against every one of Biden’s Cabinet nominees. www.mediaite.com/politics/jos...
