Can confirm: Pulled 60 Minutes “Inside CECOT” segment on the El Salvador mega prison housing hundreds of Venezuelan deportees sent by the U.S. is on Global TV’s free app

It is very important to me that we do not tell apartment complexes that they need fast chargers for EVs. They need level 2 chargers. Not more than is used by a dryer or electric range. When you're charging overnight, you do not need crazy voltage.

Considering Caribbean boats... are these ISIS targets or are they targets blamed on ISIS?

This is partly why I quit donating to the DNC and donate to individual candidates. (Used to donate to DSCC too, but they have become more like the DNC. Centrist is not what is needed. Progressive is what people (other than MAGAts and similar) want!)

Repeat as often as necessary: The violence that the Trump administration is perpetrating is not the consequence of the resistance that people are engaging in. It is the consequence of the fact that not enough people are engaging in resistance yet. crimethinc.com/TurningTide

Officials in Tennessee aren't just banning books, they're now demanding information on who checked out contested (largely LGBTQ+) books, including names, addresses, and "household composition." A librarian who was given the directive has come forward asking for whistleblower protections.

Just like the myths of welfare fraud & dead people collecting social security

Long read, but essential history to review... there's a few moments that may be more relevant that you think Also, at the heart of all the troubles is the selfishness of the voters - just one more bauble will prove they're worth in the eyes of the neighbors crimethinc.com/2025/12/16/a...

As long as "traffic safety" is owned by enforcement and not linked to engineering, the US is going to struggle to reliably have safe streets Behavior is important, but the biggest determinant of important safety behaviors like speed is the design of the street

Counterfactuals - without Rob Reiner Richard Dreyfuss is Meathead, no mockumentaries, no reality TV, Meg Ryan's career ends with Top Gun, Billy Crystal is known as a stand-up from SNL, a significant number of memes don't exist. The careers of River Phoenix & Wil Wheaton?

Putin, Orbán, The Mango Mussolini, Kast I'm pretty sure this proves observational learning is ineffective people only learn to not touch a hot stove by actually touching the hot stove

The cultural impact of Rob Reiner cannot be understated. Legend isn't big enough a word. It goes to 11. You can't handle the truth. As you wish. I'll have what she's having. I'm your number one fan. You guys wanna see a dead body? The very idea of a bucket list. The West Wing. All from his movies.

A far-right politician whose father was a Nazi will become Chile's next president, having run on anti-crime rhetoric. Whenever a politician says "crime," they are promising violence. It's a protection racket: the more state violence, the more poverty; the more poverty, the more cartel activity.

This is good. A real reaction to the surreal. Since it's 2025, of course the lead is a woman. www.imdb.com/title/tt2220...

I won't harken to the words of rich men who had no intention of allowing the rabble vote the ideal government that bends to the Will of the Voter means the Voter must apply pressure Representatives must fear the Voter, not be guaranteed a pension after a few short years of cheering on a dictator

When autocracy takes hold in a country, everything goes on as before—police go on policing, landlords go on collecting rent, people go on showing up to work. The transition takes place so smoothly because all the elements necessary to fascism were present under democracy. crimethinc.com/democracy

Capitalism is not markets, and socialism is not planning. In fact, capitalism can be highly planned, and socialism can utilize free markets. E.g. market socialism, with a system of worker cooperatives participating in a genuinely free market. The difference is who owns the means of production.

Had a frustrating conversation with an actual, proper, licensed & certified nurse who must have skipped all the DNA/RNA classes my high school diploma havin-ass had to explain the basics of ribosomes & transcriptase 🤦🏼‍♂️

I find it very telling after hearing about prevention as the primary concern of health care all my life that the US is now punishing those who "failed" The urban legend of ambulance rides denied coverage when the patient was too unconscious to ask for prior approval comes to mind
