Here are all the states Russ Vought announced just today he would be illegally stealing taxpayer dollars from. Have we ever had a President work so hard to hurt the people he represents? I'm not going to be intimidated by these crooks.

Trump declares war on Americans: "Our history is filled with military heroes who took on all enemies foreign and domestic. That's what the oath says -- foreign and domestic. Well we also have domestic."

www.la-croix.com/a-vif/eva-jo... "Nicolas Sarkozy est, avec d’autres, reconnu coupable en première instance d’association de malfaiteurs pour avoir marchandé avec un terroriste, dans l’espoir de financements à même de fausser une élection présidentielle en lui conférant un avantage déloyal."

“Am I watching things on television that are different from what's happening?” is the defining quote of the Trump era

Old-school Republican, lawyer in Trump's first administration, but a decent one. Now retired from politics.

Voilà en un peu plus d’une minute vous avez exactement de quoi faire fermer des bouches face à ce déversement de complaisance obscène pour des malfrats depuis 4 jours

La France des honnêtes gens.

Nicolas Sarkozy entame un quinquennat nouveau.

“This was the culmination of months of antagonism from Grenell. In April, Williams emailed the interim president asking him if Trump’s overhaul of the center would lead to any logistical changes. She described what he sent back as “absolutely insane.””

Hope he doesn't say the opposite tomorrow.

Hard to express to those not in the weeds just how much the current state of the immigration detention system is just utter chaos.

C'est le moment de rappeler que Candace Owens travaillait avec et pour Turning Point USA, l'organisation fondée et dirigée par Charlie Kirk, auquel le Quai d'Orsay a donc rendu hommage le jour même de sa disparition 🙃

Autoriser l'accrochage de drapeaux ukrainiens mais interdire celui de drapeaux palestiniens porte un nom: c'est du racisme.

Mad to me that universities are partnering with companies which have built their entire business model on theft, plagiarism, labour abuses and environmental destruction, and whose product will facilitate an entirely new round of plagiarism on the part of student users

It’s been sad this year watching how the White House press corps refuses to back each other up. Here a female journalist is insulted and denigrated and the next male reporter just moves on to a new question. You’re all in this together, folks. Time & again, they won’t stand up for their colleagues.

“Criticism is practically treason.” Bill Mauldin, 1969.

“Maybe I met him on some boys’ trip? I feel like I’ve seen his penis before. Have we ever gone swimming at the same time? You have a mole right here under your rib cage, right?” said Trump

Un article de février 1939 www.nytimes.com/1939/02/04/a...

From Feb 4th 1939

Even amazing lawyers can't change the fact that deceased individuals (or their estates) cannot bring defamation lawsuits.

New in PN: There are no MAGA heroes "One of the reasons so much praise is being lavished on Kirk is that Republicans don’t really have anyone else to admire. In the Trump era, there are no heroes. They cannot exist within the modern GOP."

Bessent on his confrontation with Pulte: "Treasury Secretaries dating back to Alexander Hamilton have a history of dueling, and it turned out a little better for Treasury's side this time."

Effacer le passé raciste pour pouvoir mieux discriminer aujourd'hui.

@info.gouv.fr Macron et quasi la totalité de feu le gouvernement ne communiquent que sur X. Comment est ce encore possible ? Cela fait des mois que tous les services officiels de n’importe quelle démocratie devraient avoir supprimer leur compte sur ce réseau. Vous attendez quoi de plus de Musk ?

Fifteen years after Citizens United opened the floodgates of corporate and dark political money, the Center for American Progress has figured out how to slam them back shut. CAP published its groundbreaking how-to report today: "The Corporate Power Reset That Makes Citizens United Irrelevant."

Another reporter fired JUST FOR ACCURATELY REPORTING WHAT CHARLIE KIRK SAID. They want that guy elevated to sainthood not because of what he did but DESPITE it. This shit is as fixed as wrestling.

Trump's Under Secretary of Defense has called Islam "the most oppressive, violent religion" & accused Obama of being a secret "Muslim" & "terrorist leader" & a "Manchurian candidate" serving the interests of Hamas. In any other administration, this would be a huge scandal.

"Regret" for what? Every bit of this was Trump admin policy, including the arbitrary rounding up of everyone in sight, the appalling conditions of their confinement, and the delayed release. Is anyone in the Trump admin / DHS / ICE getting fired over it? No. Are any policies being changed? Also no.

This is one feature of the deprofessionalization of the DHS under Noem. Employees have encouraged to treat prisoners as lesser beings, undeserving of basic human dignity. Aspects of the organizational culture that already believed this are being empowered.

These firings, with zero due process, are violations of widely accepted principles of academic freedom & are completely unacceptable. College & university administrators MUST NOT exploit these shocking events to censor protected speech & concentrate their own power. www.wsmv.com/2025/09/12/t...

Alors @franceculture.fr, toujours Charlie Kirk ou bien?

A friend of mine was on Charlie Kirk's "watch list" of Black professors. She received so many death and rape threats that her university offered her a security detail for the walk to class. This is Kirk's legacy. You would never know it from reading all of these legacy newspaper op-eds about him.

"prove me wrong" and "free speech" tours was actually antithetical to the purpose of a university. I have no problem with him speaking on campus, but he's not doing the work of a university. I think part of defending our institutions means explaining this.

understand the context, empathize with each person's experiences, and engage with primary sources. That's how you avoid turning debate into a mal-informed hot-take-athon, which is basically what the right wants to impose on college campus life. In other words, what Kirk and his ilk did in his/

Ideological violence in America mostly comes from the right. You can check multiple sources, but I am going to use the libertarian Cato Institute here to avoid being accused of cherrypicking, So, how can universities, a supposed hotbed of leftist indoctrination, driving political violence?

Sur les faux défenseurs de la liberté d'expression un excellent texte de Timothy Snyder substack.com/home/post/p-...

Bon commentaire de ce titre affligeant du Monde pour un article à côté de la plaque ou périmé dès le départ au minimum.

“We have a right to know the charges against us, to know who has made the charges and to review them and defend ourselves,” they said. “But none of that has happened, which is why we’re in Kafka-land … It is an enormous breach of trust.” www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Charlie Kirk did not deserve to die. Political violence is unacceptable. At the same time, dying doesn't give anyone the right to rewrite history. He said what he said. And a lot of it was hate and lies.

“Militant, nationalistic, white supremacist violent extremism has increased in the United States. In fact, the number of far-right attacks continues to outpace all other types of terrorism and domestic violent extremism.” The Trump DOJ scrubbed this study from their website.

Incredible. Trump drags the reputation of a highly regarded economist, first Black woman to be a Fed gov, thru the mud claiming she committed mortgage fraud. But the documents his appointee to run Fannie & Freddie got for him & that he said showed fraud don’t actually say that.

Which work? Calling for gay people to be stoned to death? Blaming airplane crashes on black pilots? Anti-vax bullshit? Election denialism? Pushing Great Replacement Theory? Kirk’s murder is awful and ominous for this country. But no, we don’t need to honor him or “continue his work.”

From me, a list of Trump supporters who killed, or tried to kill, Democrats and opponents of Trump in recent years (since the right are now claiming all the political violence is from the left!) Receipts: zeteo.com/p/charlie-ki...
