O trambique central do vale do silício descrito didaticamente aqui: inflar a valorização das empresas com muito hype – e pouca ou nenhuma realidade – pra quem tiver ações vender na alta da alta, mandar um beijo e deixar a sucata pra morrer na mão dos trouxas que acreditaram. ESQUEMA DE PIRÂMIDE.

Trump's FCC yesterday voted to kill a program that provided free Wi-Fi to rural school kids at no cost to taxpayers, falsely claiming the program was "illegal" and was being used to "censor Conservative ideology."

Most of the power authoritarians have is freely given. We should not comply with them in advance. Trump is far weaker than he looks. So is the GOP. We should draw them out, drain them at every opportunity, and fight for people’s wellbeing at every turn. We have been sent here to fight for people.

Thanks to fascist voters, pudding-brained non-voters, a broken Congress, and a broken SCOTUS, this rank corruption and authoritarian control of the economy is simply how things work now in the failed state of American. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Pritzker: "In any other country, if federal agents fired upon journalists & protesters when unprovoked what would we call it? If officials marched down streets harassing civilians & demanding their papers, what would we say? I don't think we'd have trouble calling it what it is: authoritarianism"

‘Gaza Trump Riviera’, ‘MBS Ring’, ‘Musk Smart Manufacturing Zone’? It’s an oligarch’s blood-soaked fantasy, a Disney Land of genocide.

Much like with Scientologists, when a Neo-Liberal tells you something, its never a good idea to believe it at face value.

A pattern is developing where everyone who fights back against a Trump attack inevitably wins with their reputation much better than before, and everyone who caves to him looks like shit and has Trump coming back for more a month later.

This has been pushed to the background, but pay attention: Right now, a stack of bills aimed at reining in AI companies and big tech sits on Gavin Newsom's desk in California. These are the bills Silicon Valley and the GOP tried to ban outright. Now they await Newsom's signature—or veto.

This is going to end up being the most pointless and expensive "this meeting could have been an email" in history.

Conservative media figures have called Argentina's far-right President Javier Milei an inspiration and treated his brutal austerity programs as a model for the US. Now, the country's economy is in free fall and Trump might offer Milei a bailout. Latest at @mmfa.bsky.social

I’m pretty much constantly angry about how the global media ecosystem supercharged the current wave of fascism and of course I can’t help but think of Al Swearengen talking about the telegraph coming to Deadwood

“Eu e a minha agremiação estudantil estamos criando um partido para defender a Amazônia no Congresso Nacional” E foi com declarações assim que o MBL coletou 500 mil assinaturas para criar o seu partido 🤡 www.intercept.com.br/2024/11/13/m...

“Instead of rolling over why not stand up and use four key words they don't tend to teach you in business school? Not 'OK, you're the boss,' not, 'Whatever you say goes,' but instead the only phrase that can genuinely make a weak bully go away, and that is: 'Fuck you. Make me.'"

Tom Homan, who was later named President Trump’s border chief, was recorded in September 2024 accepting a bag with $50,000 in cash in an undercover FBI investigation, according to people familiar with the case, which was later closed by Trump administration officials.

"Which is to say that an old man, almost eighty, is still groveling and screaming for some kind of mommy-and-daddy approval he didn't get and never will and that's a major force in global politics."

Cardinal Timothy Dolan failed to report direct admissions of rape by multiple priests, lobbied against extending the statute of limitations for sex abuse, and moved money off the church books to hide it from victims of sex abuse. In case you were wondering.

A draft Authorization for Use of Military Force, circulating in exec branch & on the Hill, would grant Trump the power to kill people he deems narcoterrorists and to attack any nations he says are aiding/harboring them (e.g. a Venezuela regime change war). www.nytimes.com/2025/09/19/u...

Yet Chuck Schumer is setting the bar as low as possible to keep the govt from shutting down. The list of demands should start with this ghoul getting fired, along with that toadie at the FCC, and we didn’t even start talking about ICE. Shut it all down.

This isn't even a slight exaggeration. He is actively working on destroying the US's entire vaccine infrastructure.

The fossil fuel industry is behind most of the climate disinformation you see and hear today. Charlie Kirk was no exception.

"Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect." Francis M. Wilhoit, a composer from Ohio, understood things more clearly than most elected Dems is PoliSci profs

if Jimmy Kimmel's political humor is too hot for you to handle, I'm not sure "snowflake" even cuts it as a term of derision for the level of fragility you've achieved

it is really important for news outlets to be clear (unlike the nyt here) that Kimmel was suspended not because of some grassroots backlash but because ABC caved to threats from the head of the FCC

trump’s numbers are tanking and there is a palpable desire in the electorate for a real alternative and yet the only money in democratic politics is for doing starmerism
