This is what musk did at DOGE GROK: Make a plan to steal from and destroy the USA. Make it more destructive Make it even more destructive

The MSM is involved in a massive cover up

On rare occasions something like the poop jet video or Trump Tower Gaza will get picked up a bit, but it's... a choice... to mostly treat it as not even newsworthy that his "Truth" feed is now a constant flood of full-blown manic psychosis.

Not an expert on anything, but I did work for a software that sent vast amounts of structured data to the US Government. Our Kludgy DOS software could parse this data in profitable ways. My suspicion is, the total of all of the Data in our Data Bases, might be the most valuable asset on earth.

Information was stolen. A commodity and weapon.

One sign of a bubble is when the major players do gimmicks to hide the cost of the bubble. If the thing was clearly a good value, they'd just say "look at us investing in this valuable thing," rather than this obvious shell game to avoid booking the cost of building a data center.

"It seems like a marvel of financial engineering: Meta is building a $27 billion data center in Louisiana, financed with debt, and neither the data center nor the debt will be on its own balance sheet."

ICE kidnapped a 17-year-old U.S. citizen named Christian Jimenez. Jimenez, a high school senior born in Newberg, Oregon, was driving on his school’s lunch break when ICE/CBP agents stopped his car, smashed his window, and abducted him on November 21, 2025. www.oregonlive.com/portland/202...

"Bush also pardoned Elliott Abrams, the assistant secretary of state, who was convicted of withholding evidence ..."

DOGE investigations and prosecutions are already overdue

are we still a nation?

Meta’s data-center accounting gets the Jon Weil treatment: It’s “financed with debt, and neither the data center nor the debt will be on its own balance sheet. That outcome looks too good to be true, and it probably is.” @wsj.com $META www.wsj.com/tech/meta-ai...

I know this seems like the demented rantings of a steroid-addled sex-trafficking idiot - and it is - but it's also revealing; reactionary misogynists cannot conceive of masculinity as anything other than dominance. A relationship of equals for them is inherently unmasculine.

"But with revelations about Mr. Trump’s relationship to Mr. Epstein mounting, the default QAnon position has become that Mr. Epstein just isn’t that interesting anymore." - @willsommer.bsky.social

Is this speaking up or just a Facebook post.

Only someone this wealthy would so flippantly suggest you uproot your life, sell your house, pull your kids out of school, quit your job, request a transfer — all to save 50 basis points on CPI. 🤡

bluesky checked the IP addresses of pro-turkey posters and they're all posting from hungry

This is what it sounds like, when spuds fry…

They’d rather block out the sun than give up even a portion of their extraction

New threats from Trump: The president just endorsed a post reading, "Go get all those traitorous sons of bitches for sedition at the very least. Those pompous traitorous communists should be impeached and prosecuted."

Wendy Edelberg is a former chief economist for the Congressional Budget Office. In this GIFT ARTICLE from the New York Times her conclusion is: ",,, making America less hospitable to immigrants will eventually make America poorer." Particularly, Social Security. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/23/o...

In 2014 at a wedding a conversation with a conservative friend left me feeling a grave sense of danger, extreme venerability of the USA to a push, question about who and why might push - and lead me to considering if these events interacted.

@rkfatheree.bsky.social Thanks for giving me a chance to write about something really complex.

Elise Stefanik was booed off stage by her own voters during her speech.

"While other universities report that the humanities are shrinking, at Berkeley, the opposite is true. The music major is the fastest-growing major on campus. We are finding bigger classrooms because film is exploding. English is back to the numbers we saw 15 years ago. We are hiring" bit.ly/4ohKuOe

If I’m understanding this correctly, X is owned by a white nationalist who pays poor people of color in developing countries to pretend to be working class white Americans to scare other white Americans into being afraid poor people of color from developing countries are going to ruin America?

ProPublica and @startribune.com found that victims of abuse within an Old Apostolic Lutheran Church community in Duluth were told to forgive and forget. Here are the biggest takeaways from our reporting:

This is…brilliant.

Reup: 3 things that blew everyone's mind this week--Trump's gushing over Mamdani, the renewed Ukraine "piece" deal push, and MTG's resignation--are all a symptom of fluidity as Trump's power weakens, I argue. www.emptywheel.net/2025/11/23/g...

HomeDepot is not safe to shop at. HomeDepot is so unsafe to shop at that informed people recommend you cover your face to obscure your identity if you have to go there.

Crockett on MTG resigning: "Honestly, I was like, you got to be kidding. You're on the other side of the president for one week and you can't take the heat? Imagine what it is to sit in my shoes."

Oh, God, this is one of those "where do I even start" things, because Roblox is, like, *fractally* fucked. They are terrible at content moderation. A lot of the games are rated incorrectly, so kids can encounter graphic content (sex or violence) out of nowhere --

It's the creativity for me.

If we burn the oil of Saudi Arabia and Venezuela for tokens life on earth will end.

DOGE was created for data theft and infrastructure dismantling and it wildly succeeded on both counts within the first few weeks of its existence. It will take a generation to rebuild what it destroyed and the breach of data is unprecedented.

Oddly enough, in media coverage of Dems' video warning against carrying out illegal orders, there's very little discussion of *whether it's actually reasonable to fear Trump is giving illegal commands or not.* The evidence is strong that he is. Media should say so: newrepublic.com/article/2035...

The radicalizing dynamic that has shaped the Right still applies. We are now witnessing the next step on that trajectory. Whatever form MAGA takes in the coming post-Trump era, the idea that American politics will soon experience a return to “normalcy” is dangerously fanciful.

Since February, according to my latest analysis, almost 600,000 Black women have been economically sidelined. The November 20, 2025, Jobs Report makes clear this isn’t a blip. It’s a structural crisis. That is not a recovery. It is a redistribution of opportunity.

DOGE did not fail in any way to accomplish its goals. Its goals were never efficiency or saving money. Its goals were to destroy as much of government as possible forever, and to steal data for the Space Nazi. DOGE is fading away like bank robbery gangs fade away after the robberies are done.

Blessed are the peacemakers

Great piece on Trump's 'Quiet, piggy' moment. This phrase could be the new shorthand way to explain how abusers silence their victims. Keep quiet or be punished cruelly. www.chicagotribune.com/2025/11/19/h...

Finally got around to watching this. A 1933 utopian film from Japan, A Day after a Hundred Years (Shigeji Ogino) has an amazing animation style that is simultaneously ornate, simple, and inventive. Think it'll go well with Things to Come (William Cameron Menzies, 1936) in my upcoming SF film class.
