LISTEN: There are a lot of folks out here working tirelessly to get the truth out there. Replying to us that nothing matters because there'll be no consequences is not only incorrect, but it belittles the work we do. It's insulting and shortsighted. Stop following us if you don't want the info.

Good morning. The President of the United States was in the middle of the most serious child sex trafficking ring of the last quarter century. He is referenced not a dozen times in the case files. Not 100 times. Not 1,000 times. He’s referenced 38,000 times.

Y'all, I don't know if this ends well or badly in the long run, but I am sickly certain that all from here to every possible future out of now passes through a lot of ugly. We're long past the last detour around it.

Remember when saying something like “deplorable” was bad for a political career?

Everywhere he goes he causes problems.

How nice. Two more grandiose tankie twits in my feed, taking a moment away from yet another busy day of grinding asscheeks with Nazis down at the bottom of the horseshoe to yell about liberals are much closer to Nazis actshully and how much they're looking forward to shooting them someday. Bye.

“Please stay calm as we steal the election”.

NC is a pretty windy state. It's why you've heard of Kitty Hawk. I usually like it. But the sound of the desiccating 21 mph north wind that's been ceaselessly blasting over the sleet crust on a 30° morning has somehow finally made me feel that exquisite Raymond Chandler quote about the Santa Ana

I guess one way to not be remembered as the worst president in history (by a lot) is to be so much worse, and so much more vile, corrupt, malignant, treacherous, incompetent, sadistic, and stupid the second time that we bring back damnatio memoriae just for him.

The precise reason he went this low is because Obama had the highest exit approval ratings of any president in recent history and is vastly more popular than he is now. And it's eating away at him like acid now, in this moment, as he antiipates a historic electoral. Hydrofluoric, one hopes.

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition. Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...

‘Do You Speak Billionaire?’ and Other Stories From the Fall of the Washington Post talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/do-yo...

Yes, it should.

I think it's best for everyone to understand that the unified class project of billionaires right now is to do to white collar workers what globalization and neoliberalism did to blue collar workers.

I'd been considering creating my own personal blocklist of "Evil Monsters Who Won an Argument Against Me" but then realized it would be problematic because I'd have to put my own name on it.

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again. #Pinks #ProudBlue

Wait! The public face of nationwide immigration enforcement, Gregory Bovino, said in a newly discovered email that his boss wasn’t the head of CBP. He reported to Corey Lewandowski instead. He’s a political operative with zero law-enforcement background calling the shots on immigration enforcement.

a movie no one wanted that cost exponentially more than it made is a weird success metric but apparently numbers are woke now

okay look, i support whatever she could plausibly say she's going to do here, but it would be really, really funny if It Happened tomorrow

Jeff Bezos’s wealth has increased an average of $70 million every day of 2026, meaning that he could have offset The Post’s losses with what he’s made since Monday.

Seven years ago yesterday, this ad ran during the Super Bowl.

If you're Gen Jones, the correct answer is Rio Bravo.

Feeling with the gambling taking over we are officially at late stage professional sports.

Big shoutout to Google and their fancy AI for sucking all the early Internet days fun out of telling people to Google the dihydrogen oxide menace.

I'm starting a new game: how far down the respectability chain will the Trump official have to slide to get his or her Wingnut Welfare laundered after this is all over: Starting with Blanche: a) CNN b) Fox c) Newsmax d) OAN/other Youtube propaganda channel e) Heritage f) Mar-a-Lago Staff

I wonder how many in Congress grasp just how serious this is.

What if the reason so many rich people flocked to, and back to, Epstein after he got out of jail was that they treated a sentence in the same range as possession of a gram or two of coke as a societal signal on the relative odiousness of his conduct and the potential consequences of participation?

jesus christ

I guess they are pretty upset. For some reason.

There is no question this was a lynching and public execution. They didn’t even know Alex had a gun in his HOLSTER until he was on the ground. He never touched it. They beat him then shot him 10x.

Every time I see 21st Century American white women gushing over "Gone With the Wind" on social media, I again ponder if they'd still be showing "Birth of a Nation" on classic movie channels if it had been a technicolor talkie.

Ah, yes, the mannerisms of a lawyer who perpetually practices on the edge of a platform flimsily cantilevered out over the brink of the disbarment/indictment abyss by dollar bills. The constant belligerence. The twitchy, rimacing incipient panic of a weakling who chooses to work for psychopaths.

I'm skimming through mentions of Trump in the Trump-Epstein Files, and there's one thing that I'm thinking over and over: All we had to do was believe the women. There are dozens of stories in here that make me ill. Do you really believe these are all lies?

The president of the United States had his DOJ raid the Fulton County election office and seized ballots. This is clearly a dry run for 2026. Yet, this is treated by too many in legacy media as normal. I founded Democracy Docket in 2020 because you deserve better. Subscribe now. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0

Yes, we need ALL the Epstein files.

The arrest of Don Lemon is textbook fascism—a brazen attempt to silence reporting on a criminal regime. Stand up for Don, because our rights stand and fall with those of courageous journalists throughout this country.

Quick, what do eminent experts on presidential mental fitness for office Derek Thomson, Jake Tapper and Ezra Klein have to say about this?

Remember: Telling lies that everyone knows are lies is a classic tactic of dictators to force their followers to side with them over the truth itself… But the public will not be gaslit. We will continue to spread the truth… Ignorance is the handmaiden of tyranny. ~ Robert Reich

Liam is in ICE custody and his health is deteriorating. Joaquin Castro says Liam is depressed, lethargic, sleeping excessively and barely eating, repeatedly asking about his mom, and when he can go home. He’s withdrawn and not the bright preschooler he was just days ago. LIAM NEEDS A DOCTOR 1/2

What if the whole point of social media is to replace tetraethyl lead?

For the kids who haven't read ahead in the lessons, crucial spoiler: when the new, better groomed party troops purge the old thuggier party troops, it is never, ever the beginning of a Big Pivot to Centrist Normalcy. Also, remember the MSM thinks reading any of the lessons would make them biased.

This is an excellent piece by @parkermolloy.com. As an aside, she also confronts the whole Substack controversy pretty matter of factly. This is actually how I've decided to handle it, at least for now...I'm cross-posting my major pieces at ACASignups.net *and* on Substack *and* on Patreon.

I swear to god it's like some people are so worried a revolution might occur without them, they can't decide whether to try to steal credit for it or sabotage it.

So, folks up North, do your cities use snowplows to seal off every intersecting residential neighborhood from their nice freshly-plowed main roads with a 1/100th scale model of the Wall? Or is that just a thing only still done in states that lack experience managing crystalized dihydrogen oxide?

we’re right about ai too

Many TikTok users recently reported problems uploading videos, sudden drops to zero views, or posts getting stuck “under review.” Almost all of those complaints involved videos criticizing ICE or discussing the murder of Alex Pretti in Minneapolis.

It's not quite the most pressing issue at the moment, but the American people absolutely have a right to know the names of the federal officials who shot and killed a man peacefully protesting, who was on his knees, prone in the street when they shot him in the back.
