Trump is once again proposing to destroy Alcatraz — a globally popular tourist attraction — by wasting billions to turn it into some sort of prison gulag. It’s an absurd, idiotic idea, a complete waste of taxpayer money, and yet another sign of Trump’s dementia. Back off.

The NYT, a paper devoted to spreading the propaganda of rich “centrists” and right wing Trump apologists, isn’t critiquing the wealthy or defending the needy; it’s just trying to stigmatize public services and evangelize for means testing to undermine a socialist mayor. Just my opinion!

As a result of Trump & Hegseth's re-segregation, all five service chiefs, the JCS chairman and vice chairman, and nine of ten combatant commanders are white men. Also, the U.S. military is back to zero female four-star officers for the first time since 2008; there were four in 2024.

All but three (!) of the 1,651 refugees admitted into the United States in the three most recent months we have data are white South Africans. For comparison, in 2024, the U.S. admitted 100,060 refugees. It's an explicit white supremacist project.

One thing that always strikes me about this 60 year old photos of NYC is just how many fewer cars there were. NYC made the streets too wide at a time when demand wasn't there, and they've filled up with too many cars in the intervening decades.
