Ohmygodthis

Great discussion, as always, with David Rothkopf on the DSR Network, and Jon Wolfsthal & Joe Cirincione @djrothkopf.bsky.social @joecirin.bsky.social @jonatomic.bsky.social @thedsrnetwork.bsky.social

America — and the rest of the world — erupted in excited glee today over an unsubstantiated rumor. Can you even begin to imagine the global reaction when it actually happens? 😳🌍 #Trump

Really appreciated this conversation between Jon Stewart and Heather Cox Richardson. @hcrichardson.bsky.social The future isn’t written for us. Systems fail. People can rebuild them. History, art, and storytelling help people make sense of the moment, recover agency, and imagine what comes next.

🚨 Ever Alvarenga, an asylum seeker, was driving to work Thursday morning when he was rear-ended by an ICE vehicle. He is still in the hospital after suffering significant injuries to his head, chest, back, & hands. [1/2]

Anger Makes You Blind. In this short clip, H H the Dalai Lama shares a humorous story about his angry driver in Lhasa to illustrate a profound truth: when anger arises, the mind loses clarity. Without anger, we can respond to difficulties—and even to those who cause us harm—far more effectively.

And all I will continue to say is…imagine the worst, and be ready to defeat it. Is Trump gonna fuck with/try to cancel the midterms? Believe it, defeat it. Will Trump try to run for a 3rd term? Believe it, defeat it. We didn’t imagine the worst after the 2020 election, and Jan 6 happened. Not again.

Crazy story: Sophisticated drones attacked Louisiana’s Barksdale bomber base during week of 9 March in 4 hour waves, disrupting Epic Fury ops "It is the first time a US airbase was temporarily put out of operation in wartime, something that never happened even in World War II."

kudos to Jack in Silver Spring MD, surely on Bluesky

The culture of DC has us screwed six ways to Sunday. But one of those ways deserves more focus, despite not being the sexiest or most triggering. My latest. open.substack.com/pub/davidrot...

Before the rallies. Before the White House. Before the lies became policy — there were decades of smaller lies. Who IS Donald Trump, really? Where did the corruption start? I went back to the beginning. The results are alarming. 🧵 PART ONE is live on Substack. open.substack.com/pub/adamkinz...

In a direct exchange with Sen. John Cornyn, Sen. Dick Durbin methodically explains to Cornyn how the SAVE Act would adversely affect voters and election administration. …

Trump sees himself as the Slim Pickens riding an atom bomb in Dr Strangelove, when he's actually the Slim Pickens in Blazing Saddles.

The inept politics of Turkish centrist politicians engaging Erdoğan furnishes an excellent learning experience for American Democrats in dealing with Trump. Schumer and Jeffries are, if anything, still far more inept in their opposition than the Turkish CHP.

Representative Frost was fabulous in this interview.

Yes they do

Remember: white Evangelicals are absent from government in Washington per WaPo

Good speech. Most US press got bamboozled by Bill Barr's scheme. Trump's collusion with Russia was always real, continues to be. www.youtube.com/live/ylvTFvJ...

Rubio: “Let me tell you, Iran is run by lunatics, religious fanatic lunatics.”

Little known fact: Virtually all forms of lichen are smarter than Senator Markwayne Mullen.

Is it too much to ask sitting members of Congress today to be half as fearless and principled as Edward R. Murrow was in 1954 when he challenged Senator Joseph McCarthy? www.cnn.com/2019/07/15/m... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_...

I have questions. open.substack.com/pub/davidrot...

Absolute truth must read, especially the "meat locker" part. Also, make it impossible for a trump or a musk to ever get near this government again. Still can't believe musk was allowed access to anything. Thank you for this, @djrothkopf.bsky.social open.substack.com/pub/davidrot...

The memo between Thorbjørn Jagland, the former Prime Minister of Norway, and J.E. is jawdropping.

We have now entered the "His Opponents Are Afraid of Falling Out of Windows" stage of Donald Trump's emulation of Vladmir Putin.

Pam Bondi is the Megyn Kelly of Ghislaine Maxwells.

Rep. Ted Lieu played video of Trump partying with Epstein for AG Pam Bondi. BONDI SNAPS: This is ridiculous! There’s no evidence Trump committed a crime! LIEu: I believe you just lied under oath. PAMMY JO: Don't ever accuse me of a crime! LIEU: I believe you just lied under oath. *shows proof*

MAGA 2020: I’m not carrying a vaccine record or wearing a mask. MAGA 2026: Show your papers to masked ICE agents and you won’t get hurt.

Listen to this man.

Fantastic and alarming article by David Rothkopf. We are no longer a democracy, and haven’t been one for years. It’s time to eat the rich.

Remember that midnight raid in Chicago supposedly to arrest Tren del Aragua members? Newly revealed court docs show that the raid was facilitated by the building owners who are now accused of using the raid to evict tenants. DHS never mentions TDA in their filings: www.propublica.org/article/chic...

Direct distraction from the Epstein questions. He will never admit all the perversion and criminality he was a part of with Jeffrey Epstein.

This is the way 💥 ☠️ 🤣

CEOs of big tech companies who the Trump administration listens to have decided to ignore the slow descent into fascism. www.resistandunsubscribe.com
