This reads like it was lifted word-for-word from Catch-22.

I wrote about how right-wing media figures are looking for scapegoats as the U.S.-Israeli war on Iran spirals out of control. Two leading candidates: NATO countries who won't open the Strait of Hormuz, and the Iranian people who haven't overthrown the government. There will be more.

Very strange to see people effectively saying, "we all know the president, who we support, loves to do politically motivated investigations of people who displease him" www.mediamatters.org/us-iran-rela...

Feel like these two tweets sum up where we are right now

So what we’re gonna do is push to re-name all the Cesar Chavez schools and roads after Dolores Huerta. Call your city council people.

The day begins with a former Fox host turned Trump administration official ranting at the media over his own failings and ends with a former Fox host turned Trump administration official ranting at a judge over her own failings.

can the wormhole from interstellar be a solution

let me add a corollary to this. things are really bad if i am coming across news about the reinsurance market.

If only someone could have predicted this...

almost as if these people don't know what they're talking about

how it's playing out in right-wing media: "fake sermons and fake passages from the Bible” “Skin suit of Christianity” “straight up demonic" www.mediamatters.org/benny-johnso... via @slawton.bsky.social

Right-wing Christian media are celebrating Trump’s war with Iran as a fulfillment of End Times prophecy. ➡️ www.mediamatters.org/us-iran-rela...

on the right's new pantheon of heroes: "sky king," killdozer, and that penguin maxread.substack.com/p/suicide-ri...

Whatever real journalism you like, please pay for it. The stuff you don't pay for is transforming into propaganda with incredible speed.

they still are trying to pull the "you don't pay tariffs, other countries do" which is particularly stupid and insulting of their audience given that people are getting the bill from when they order stuff from overseas

oop

Hannity last night: We need to invade Iran because they won't give up their nuclear program. Hannity last June: Iran's “nuclear ambitions” are “officially dead” after Trump "obliterated" their nuclear sites. www.mediamatters.org/sean-hannity...

So SCOTUS, with its fabricated-out-of-thin-air immunity doctrine, has actually made American presidents less accountable than LITERAL royalty.

Compared to other cable news channels, Fox News is hiding the latest Epstein revelations from their audience (Helena Hind/Media Matters for America) Main Link | memeorandum Permalink

Nick Shirley is rebooting old James O'Keefe myths about voter fraud and serving them up to a new audience. Did either of them find fraud? No. But did they come close? Also no. But what if you simply imagined the fraud? Well, now we're talking!

right-wing media: nothing but reboots and sequels smh www.mediamatters.org/voter-fraud-...

daily wire: it grinds our gears that liberals want americans with cancer to have health care coverage, why can't we just celebrate gofundmes for them when we have time

This is an administration where when they complain about "the deep state" they usually mean someone who said "uh, this seems pretty illegal"

CBS Evening News just inverted CBS News' own reporting, which found very low rates of so-called criminal histories for ICE arrestees. But the Evening News distorted its own network's article, making it seem like the Trump admin was rounding up the "worst of the worst." Very cool editorial process

these inept motherfuckers

Half an hour ago, Fox News hosted an "aviation expert" who argued such a closure wouldn't happen "unless we are at war" facing a "major security threat," and that it signaled the government "might have discovered the next potential Pearl Harbor."

in august, TOM HOMAN admitted that this was the law www.mediamatters.org/immigration/... via @johnknefel.bsky.social

Analysis: we fired all our arts and culture writers

they're scared

newsmax asking the questions that no one else even dared to imagine

You really need to read this to appreciate how deranged it sounds. The standard view that judicial warrants are necessary to forcibly enter residences is blamed on “subversion” by “deep state actors.”

hmmmmmm

Bannon had a tough weekend with his candidate losing a key election and being exposed as a close collaborator and friend of Epstein. So he's decided to continue his four hours of programming a day without mentioning either of them.

happening this morning in Minneapolis -- ICE agents drawing guns on observers. I reiterate again that it is only a matter of time before DHS kills more innocent people in Minnesota. Congress needs to shut this shit down right now.

can someone please remind fox news that puerto rico is part of the united states, ty www.mediamatters.org/fox-news/fox...

here's tom homan of all people admitting a few months back that ice needs a judicial warrant for a search of private property www.mediamatters.org/immigration/...

I found a Fox News interview from August 2025 where Border Czar Tom Homan acknowledges that ICE needs a judicial warrant to perform a search of private property -- contrary to an ICE memo that says agents only need an administrative warrant. Curious what he believes now.

stereotype-busting

this is a good one storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

It's a war and the American people are the enemy. Can't do the fake "no they're just after the bad guys" after you shot two people for no good reason. bsky.app/profile/ndre...

Ilhan Omar is an American hero. www.nytimes.com/live/2026/01...

Stating the obvious at this point, but the killings by ICE & CBP aren't isolated incidents; they're the product of a culture of contempt for and casual brutality toward civilians.

The writing and editing of allegedly inaccurate talking points used to discuss the Benghazi attack on the Sunday shows were the subject of YEARS of congressional hearings. www.axios.com/2026/01/27/t...
