What Americans Should Understand About the Military Disobeying Illegal Orders www.thebulwark.com/p/what-ameri...

In an era filled with tech dipshits who never developed emotionally past the age of 13 & use their wealth to become odious monsters ... ... listen to Steve Wozniak.

I'm not a prude in any way, but, I gotta say, all of this is just gross and idiotic.

For a decade, Russia has been seeking to divide Europe and America, to undermine NATO and weaken the transatlantic alliance. This peace plan, if accepted, will achieve that goal. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2025/1...

one thing about Nuzzi and Lizza is that they were both transparently ghouls, for Nuzzi *ten* years ago and for Lizza fully eight years ago. a serious profession with real accountability would have driven them both out before any of this.

A full accounting. Absolutely. That means electing people who understand that a public process is what will allow a cleansing and to move forward. Think of the festering that went on in society after the Civil War when southern leaders were not held accountable.

We are not serious people. No one even asked us to fight for democracy - they asked us to give up a tenth of a percent of our income and we said that’s too much. We have chosen decline and chosen it with gusto

This is a wonderful time to support journalists who do the work, don’t fuck sources, and actually have moral clarity.

62 Years Ago Today:

Q: Stefanik has called Mamdani a 'jihadist.' Do you think you're standing next to a jihadist right now? TRUMP: No, I don't. I met with a man who's a very rational person

An really important thing a lot of people don't realize about Trump is that he doesn't bully people he doesn't think he can bully.

Pretty telling that trump wants to give Putin territory that he doesn't even control. And limit Ukraine from being able to resist future Russian aggression. But let's attack the treasonous Democrats!!!

Laura Loomer is not taking it well

Zohran walking into the Oval Office, focusing on his key policy platforms, and coming away with an unqualified win over Trump really puts into relief how bad the Democratic leadership is that it has been repeatedly rendered totally impotent and made to look like bumbling cowards by the Donald.

The Labor Department does not know how to help kids read. Nobody in HHS knows how to work with kids with disabilities. This isn't saving money—it's eviscerating the services students depend on. www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Xgb...

I am disgusted as to how the media has characterized Trump as "actually" beginning to make progress at any point on Ukraine, ever. It's "actually" a continuing stream of Bull$hit. How does Trump make progress for Ukraine by serving as an agent of Putin? www.theatlantic.com/internationa...

Very good and important thread:

as somebody who writes and studies broadband access I'm constantly running into "free market" think tank nonprofits like this one who are usually covertly funded by big telecom monopolies to push misleading editorials in local papers about how community-owned broadband is the devil

Jeffries: "What's extraordinary to me is that Mike Johnson doesn't even have the decency to distance himself from Donald Trump's death threats leveled at patriotic members of Congress. Even John Thune had the decency to distance himself from Trump's remarks. But Mike Johnson couldn't say a thing."

New MRI, please.

So... pardoned J6 pedo Andrew Paul Johnson would go swimming naked just so kids would get glances of his naked body... would comment about the bodies of friends of the kid who viewed him as a father figure. Then he tried to get them to have sex in his van.

Donald goes harder on reporters than on murderers and pedophiles. Pathetic, little man.

Instead of ain't-it-aweful, I see 19 examples of how powerful women can be as reporters and can get the president off his game and go raw. The public needs to see this side of Trump. And, "insubordinate"? Absolutely. That's our job in a democracy.

The dead end of right-wing radicalism: So identified by opposition to something ... anything, they can't even find a common direction.

For more than 3 years, @pghguild.com journalists at the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette fought for their contract and to stop the paper’s union-busting — and won! I’m so proud of them. Their victory is a testament to the power of solidarity.

This is also a perfect illustration that there is a wide and deep chasm between private practice attorneys and public prosecutors when it comes to responsibility. "Attorney" doesn't mean interchangeability into any setting. That's why Trump's appointments in Justice are so corrupt/incompetent.

Turns out, good looks don't matter that much in some venues after all. Not according to Mr. Trump, though.

waiting for the free speech/anti-cancel culture crowd to bemoan how the right has gone Too Far aaaaaaany day now…

This is the reporter that Donald Trump called "Piggy." She is Catherine Lucey, currently with Bloomberg. I don't think it is a coincidence that, back in 2018, Lucey was the first reporter to ask Trump about Stormy Daniels. Trump responded with a lie, but, clearly, did not forget the question.

"Trump II administration figures often speak the language of merit in order to contrast it to 'DEI' or 'affirmative action,' but in practice they only hire incompetent clowns—so long as they are also loyal clowns." - @adamgurri.liberalcurrents.com

The New York Times has normalized Trump over decades. Treated him like some amusing novelty. That's why and how the U.S. has failed to take his sheer maliciousness and corruption seriously or even see it at all. Major failure to accurately report their own city. Accurate, local news matters.

Indeed, what is the difference?

it is almost as if accommodating and conceding to far right ideas legitimizes them and signals to voters that the far right is a legitimate choice for governance

Andrew Johnson — a Jan. 6 rioter who went by "Am🇺🇸rican T🇺🇸rrorist” on Elon Musk’s platform — has been arrested on child molestation charges, with police saying he used the promise of a taxpayer-funded payout from Trump's DOJ to try and keep one of the victims silent. theintercept.com/2025/11/17/p...
