Five years ago I can remember texting back and forth with an American friend as we both watched the horrific attack on the Capitol. It still blows my mind that T was able to run for president again after he instigated the attack. It also blows my mind that people elected him.

And then there's this video, of officers talking with each other about what they just witnessed. "We didn't have a chance," one officer said. "[Trump] was still giving his speech, and I just had to leave, because he's basically just telling people to come down here and rip this place down."

I am haunted by the ghosts of Iraq and Afghanistan. Those military operations initially went flawlessly but the problem was in trillions of $ spent, thousands of American lives, decades of lost opportunity. Americans have zero appetite for more nation building, endless quagmires.

Everytime that Tr*mp is not held accountable for his actions, he uses the silence from Congress as approval and he continues to break multiple laws.

Angus: We see this attack as setting the stage for an attack where Trump could go anywhere. The same language he’s used against Venezuela, he’s used against Canada—and he sees that we have immense resources. The difference is, good luck thinking that you are going to break the Canadian people.

The vaccine autism thing is bullshit but even if you believed it, it seems incredibly fucked up to then believe that raising child death rates is some sort of worthwhile trade-off to reduce autism rates

Trump's actions in Venezuela fit with his desire to divert attention from his failures at home: his losses in the courts, his unpopular budget bill, skyrocketing health insurance premiums, the cost of living crisis, etc. When he feels humiliated, he gets reckless. Understand what's going on.

Republicans in Congress have given away their constitutionally mandated powers by bending the knee to an corrupt, elderly pedophile. Democrats in Congress are still playing by the same rules under a dictator that they do under democracy. The institution of Congress is totally broken.

So many in media are ill-equipped to interview officials about what’s happening because they begin with the presumption of legitimacy and don’t know enough about history or U.S. foreign policy to foment intelligent pushback and hold officials accountable.

Yes, this is exactly the time to demand Democrats "do something." They can denounce Trump's actions as unconstitutional. They can state that he must be impeached and removed. They can make clear that all involved will be held accountable. These are the core duties of a role they all signed up for.

Talk about your books, and talk about the books you love. Almost all of the books I read now are from people posting about them on Bluesky. I'll also often pick something up after seeing it discussed on Reddit, and on rare occasions someone I know will rec a book to me privately.
