Exclusive: A year after Tenet Media was busted for funneling Russian money to MAGA pundits like Benny Johnson and Tim Pool, a Trump administration effort involving State and the FBI has welcomed Tenet's founders back into the US. @thebulwark.com: www.thebulwark.com/p/lauren-che...

ICE is a sexual predator organisation

This pisses me off so much

Another

Good on the Cookers

So let’s get this straight: Trump’s DOJ buried Epstein’s crimes but kept flight logs on Julie K. Brown, the reporter who exposed them. Her 2019 American Airlines booking shows up in the files. That’s not a data glitch or an oversight.

yes

I know its for pain relief but the color and name just makes me think you can take a sip to make your whole body hurt

oh my fucking god

There *are* people who go around declaring a great many things antisemitic willy-nilly and they are the bane of anyone trying to be taken seriously on the subject. Lord Almighty, do you know what you're playing with

cw 🦘 You wretches can't help yourselves, can you?

was just reading the warframe subreddit and there’s a miniature moral panic about the existence of sexy-ish skins for warframes. man, gamer culture really has changed

Everyone is very worked up about this but does not seem to be clicking/reading the article. This reg change is codifying the longstanding reality that postmarks are not always applied immediately. This is not a new practice or a change in policy, and the skeet is inaccurate

Also, you know what I’m really tired of? When I talk about how much worse trans rights are under republicans, I get a lot of “yeah but nobody ever protected your rights, so you had nothing to lose.” That’s not true at all!

Actually the core thing that Marx got wrong is that liberal democracy was ultimately able to produce a settlement where workers had things to lose besides their chains

I don't think violent rebellion against Trump is immoral; I think it is - in the conditions we are currently in - a stupid idea that is far more likely to make everything worse off than it is to fix anything. There's a difference.

"you have nothing to lose but your chains" is not true in our society! people have lots to lose! They have Generally Pretty Comfortable lives that would be at risk! any revolution is bound to work like the one in Les Miz - the people of Paris sleep in their beds rather than joining the barricades

There is a station in life where "sure, let's sleep in the rain getting shelled by the government" actually might be an improvement on what you have, so people are willing to do that most americans own their homes! the median american working schlub comes home and has a full belly & warm bed

also part of the problem is that right now, in America, the conditions are not there for revolution. Period. There is a strain of Very Silly Leftist who portrays life in America as a crushing brutal hellscape instead of the richest country - for the median Joe - that has ever existed

This is sovcit posting. This is a preamble to an assertion that you don’t have to pay child support

I will live almost anywhere for the right price so I’m not filling out the map.

A lot of people are trying to justify their own desire to surrender to Trump early in the year

Hey its not like theres a recent example of Bloomberg touting a 100% chance of something happening within the next year and then that turning out to be completely wrong.

What

Trump keeps illegally bombing other countries and the defense of this seems to be that he does little of it enough that absolutely nothing strategic ever gets achieved

I always tell students if you ask a good question the article will write itself

Bro. I do not want to be locked into a chair that controls space time, being fed the souls of 10,000 psykers a day for 10,000 years so that spaceships can use maps. Thats a really shitty job.

I do not care for Avatar discourse in either direction to be quite honest

This isn’t fully true! You can request a manual postmark at a post office, you just need to know to do it. Just another thing to educate mail-in voters about. nstp.org/article/usps...

This seems significant for the whole “mailbox rule” in contract law - now not even the accepting party knows the date of their acceptance?

You want me to look back on 2025? The thing that doomed Orpheus? The thing that turned Lot’s wife to salt?

it was a fuckin radio show instead of truth social but otherwise i nailed it

the New York Attorney General's office should start putting (white) after every banker who gets charged with fraud

We are so incredibly fucked. Even a small contingent of soldiers plus nuclear codes equals a nuclear war on US soil. This doesn’t end if he dies, either. The GOP is willing to literally burn it all down and rule over the ashes.

A lot of people on this website have some real crank ideas about debt, the financial system, the deficit, etc.

we should replace the pledge of allegiance with the New Colossus and the national anthem with America the Beautiful

basically, you do not gotta hand it to her, etc.

New Syrian currency designs go incredibly hard

I’m thinking national VAT, uncapping FICA, national residential property tax, national wealth tax, maybe 50 bps each on the latter two and 5-10% on the first. That should be good for a couple trillion year to tide us over until the boomers all die.

One of my more controversial opinions is that the US needs to significantly raise taxes to the tune of a couple % of GDP right now, even before any expansive social democratic reforms, and that means you—yes you, dear highly educated professional—will need to pay up, not just nebulous billionaires.

I wonder how past predictions of crises being resolved by Easter worked out?
