ARE WE RUSSIA YET? We got the 60 Minutes video. And a Pulitzer-winning journalist tells you exactly what Weiss was really doing when she blocked us from seeing it. plagueyears.ink/60Minutes

Trump may have front lobe dementia. Is it time to invoke the 25th Amendment? And why is a moral leper so popular with Lost Americans? Milton had it right in Paradise Lost. plagueyears.ink/banalityofevil

Bari Weiss waives her wand and suddenly Margaret Brennan starts babbling batshit crazy nonsense about Mifepristone...

IT'S NOT JUST BOATS. The Trump administration is blowing up the rules of war. As if you needed something else to worry about. Listen to our exclusive interview with the man who wrote the playbook for the U.S. military. plagueyears.ink/hegsethbreak...

Exactly. Perfect match.

Mike Johnson is big mad that we forced through a petition and forced a vote on releasing the Epstein files. So let’s do it again. This time to restore the ACA credits he stole from us:

Great! A chance at sanity

THREE-CARD MONTE After being dazzled by the Trump Mamdani love fest, we realized that Trump's real genius is bait and switch. Trump and Witkoff sell out Ukraine but all we could think about was The Odd Couple. Genius! journaloftheplagueyears.substack.com/p/its-queens...

On the other site, an 18-year-old Zohran canvasser described the legendary Wallace Shawn as "the actor who plays Dr. Sturgis on Young Sheldon" which is honestly adorable

Bari Weiss wants a line up of wing nut allstars. But a bedrock requirement for any recruit is unquestioning fealty to he Likud Party and Benjamin Netanyahu.

It's called premeditated murder.

It’s a start

Another huge win for RFKJr: Diphtheria, a once vanquished killer of children, is resurgent, driven by growing mistrust of vaccines, as urged by HHS Sec RFKJr.

If we weren't Jewish ourselves, we wouldn't be so offended by the Islamaphobic and just plain stupid attacks on Zohran Mamdani by Jews. plagueyears.ink/timeofmonsters

Somewhere along the line, we lost our nerve. Here's how it happened, and here's what we need to channel to get it back. Will No Kings demonstrations kick start American courage? plagueyears.ink/courage

Samuel Alito preparing to raise absolutely the craziest flag you've ever seen at his Long Beach Island compound.

we’ll see how his mayoral tenure shakes out but i am convinced that Mamdani has the juice. not just the charisma to win an election but the temperament to govern and the measured pragmatism of someone who genuinely believes what they’re saying and wants to accomplish real things.

Doing some back of the napkin math on the Free Press acquisition, I've determined The Onion is worth $2 trillion.

“'The fact that we don't have money to pay journalists, but we have money to pay Bari Weiss between $100 and 200 million is indicative of what the Ellisons' true goal here is,' a network correspondent said. 'And it's not journalism.'"

Same guy who declared bankruptcy 6 times shut down the U.S. government 4 times in 5 years of being President. They wanted him to run the government like his businesses and that’s exactly what he’s doing.

🚨BREAKING: A federal judge in Nashville ruled that the Department of Justice’s criminal case against Maryland man Kilmar Abrego Garcia may be a form of punishment against him for legally challenging his abrupt removal to an El Salvador megaprison earlier this year.

“He said things like ‘vaccines had fetal parts,’” Monarez said, “and I had to send a note to our leadership team to correct that misinformation.”

From the boyhood home of the poet Federico Lorca, the sounds of voices silenced by dictators. The ghost of fascism skipped Europe and came to our shores. plagueyears.ink/LorcaKnew

Dr. Susan Monarez: “I could have stayed silent, agreed to the demands, and no one would have known. What the public would have seen were scientists dismissed without cause and vaccine protections quietly eroded…I would have lost the one thing that cannot be replaced: My integrity.”

Our story on the dangers of rewriting history tells the story of how Imelda Marcos, she of the infamous shoe collection, rewrote her family’s sordid history - and how they brought the Marcos family back to power. plagueyears.ink/mediacoup

It's not just gun-totin' National Guard soldiers in DC and Chicago. When the Trump regime rewrites history, we could be looking at Eric Trump in 2032. Just look at what the Marcos family did. Rewriting history and staging a coup on the media works, folks. open.substack.com/pub/journalo...

Absolutely disgraceful. This is a crime against humanity. I hope Musk, Rubio, Lewin, and the rest of the doge boys are held responsible
