Steven K Bannon was spot on when he said “the tech bros are out of control. They are leading the White House down the road to perdition with this ascendant technocratic oligarchy.”

Pete Hegseth is a DUI hire & it shows

Q: What are your thoughts on Hitler calling Jews "a poison in the blood of Germany?" MJ: Look, that's not the phrase I would have used. I think he probably reacted to how late the trains were before he came to power.

In my defence, the Faculty meeting had been going for 78 minutes before I asked "have we considered feigning death?"

Kirkland >>>Trumpland

our admin has started doing these horrible announcements during snow storms, where they say in person classes are cancelled and “faculty may choose to move classes online.” I refuse to be bullied by the availability of Zoom into losing snow days!! They are a human right!

The Donroe Doctrine seems the foreign-policy of a new hemispheric conservatism, drawing on public disillusionment (corruption, insecurity, institutional stagnation). With the left fragmented, this reinforces Trump’s strategy of carving out exceptions to rule of law. www.eldiplo.org/318-las-garr...

Indiana GOP Sen. Bohacek on Trump's use of r-word: "When it seems quite clear we're isolating a population by use of a slur, at some point you have to speak out... it's a word used to denigrate the intellectually disabled community... you can't validate slurs like that... it's a matter of character"

European leaders are considering dumping $2.34 trillion in US debt if Trump abandons Ukraine www.the-express.com/news/world-n...

It’s not a stretch to say that my former political party is now firmly pro-Russia/pro-Putin. Not a stretch at all. It’s traitorous, but it’s true. Look, the leader of my former political party works for Putin. He’s on Putin’s side. Always has been. And the party has followed him.

Thanks! And check out our new review on mixed selectivity, please and thanks. doi.org/10.1016/j.ne...

The worst thing to happen to academia was the emergence of a nomadic administrative class like the one in corporations who just move from institution to institution setting fires and walking away. Say what you will about the flaws of faculty governance, but at least they believe in the mission.

I believe that President Trump is doing the very best he can.

📌I don't know a single person who ever had an MRI and didn't know what it was for. So, either Trump is in such cognitive decline that he can't remember these things, or he is somehow even sicker than he looks, and is hiding this information. Either way, this is a MAJOR story, because he is unfit.

Every so often cars get stuck at Park Square in Sheffield when they follow a tram and don’t realise it’s a traffic free area. That much is normal. Just *how far* they get from there is what is interesting. This person has driven 100 metres over a narrow pedestrian footbridge.

Dictators exist because the people don’t realize their power…and because the dictator works relentlessly…to make sure they never realize it. We…realize our power in this country.

Around 70% of the U.S. economy depends on consumer spending. As wealth concentrates in the richest 10%, the rest of America can’t afford to buy enough to keep the economy running. This is a huge problem — and even America’s most powerful CEOs are starting to sound the alarm.

The White House doesn’t need a ballroom… It needs a President.

Dimon on why JPMorgan Chase is not funding WH Ballroom: We have an issue, which is anything we do, since we do a lot of contracts with governments here and around the world, we have to be very careful how anything is perceived, and also how the next DOJ is going to deal with it.

I spent over two decades at Northwestern as faculty and administrator. Today, I am not proud of that.

We are about to get a foot of snow in Chicago in less than 8 hours and I can't wait to see all the Cybertrucks rendered inoperable

In #Gießen werden heute wieder Rosen auf den Weg gestreut...

Fascism is using us American Jews as moral human shields, covering its takeover with lies about protecting Jews. They aren’t. They’re pushing Jews into harm’s way, as some Jews become fools & believe it & some non-Jewish antifascists are fooled & believe it. Only fascism profits from this lie.

He’s at 60% disproval lol

My alma mater, Northwestern, has decided to grovel to a desperate loser, at vulnerable people’s expense

Having had someone with dementia in my family, I know about the aggressive phase.

I set my email to trash any message that includes the terms Black Friday or Cyber Monday.

Simply brilliant!

Wasn't the despised Crossfire on CNN?

I hate that show. It’s the old Crossfire on steroids. Where’s Jon Stewart when we need him? “Stop hurting America.”

🚨MAJOR BREAKING: MAGA is stunned into silence as news confirms National Guard shooter, Rahmanullah Lakanwal, entered the U.S. in 2021 and was vetted and granted LEGAL ASYLUM by the TRUMP ADMINISTRATION in April 2025. Their entire narrative just collapsed.

Thanksgiving is cheaper this year. If you eat just a fistful of peanuts.

Wait a minute. Is Lavrov saying that at his Alaska meeting with Putin, Trump agreed to all of the points in the Russian proposal on Ukraine? that’s news to me and probably to most people in the United States.

Is this over the top? Kash Patel, the FBI’s director, defended his country-western singer-girlfriend, saying she’s “done more for this nation than most will in ten lifetimes.” I guess it’s true that love is blind.

With the work done in Geneva as Europeans, and with Ukraine and the US, we now have a starting point. I will outline some of the core priorities of Europe going forward ↓ link.europa.eu/jj4cqH

Seriously, what other president is even remotely in his league? There was corruption in the Grant and Harding administrations, but the presidents were largely uninvolved. Nixon committed crimes in secret but didn't really line his own pockets. Trump is like a Thomas Nast cartoon come to life.

If this material is true, it is just another impeachable criminal act. The world is watching, the world is becoming more unstable and that is due, whether we like it or not, to the fact that the US is unstable.

Mark Kelly is a heroic public servant. Donald Trump is a treasonous criminal. Period. www.cnn.com/2025/11/24/p...

Marjorie Taylor Greene came into Congress in 2021 worth about $700,000. She leaves five years later worth around $25,000,000. 😳 Congress is just a giant insider-trading scheme.

There is no evidence that spikes alone or oscillations alone are functional. Nor can there be. They are inseparable. They both correlate with function (but can give different messages). People who think it's only spikes are ignoring basic physics and artificially pulling apart a unified syatem

It’s just another example of Quantbrain disease: where data and simple models, often arising as linear regression, get the wrong answers on complex systems. Data do not tell us what messages “work” to change public opinion, and they don’t tell us what’s innovative, for the same reasons.

I got it Draft European Peace Proposal for Ukraine www.onestnetwork.com/post/draft-e...

ICYMI - POPE LEO: “When people are living good lives for 10, 20 years… (Trump) is treating them in a way that’s extremely disrespectful, violent — We have to look for ways to treat people humanely and with dignity.” (H/T @CBSNews)
