it's great that grand juries are stepping up but I also do not think you should be allowed to practice law after bringing a case like that

A child

When I was on land, I once met a man Named Bobby Kennedy He was near a cadaver, but oh could he blather 'bout health and policy ... www.unchartedblue.com/he-eats-meat...

Leon Botstein absolutely has to leave Bard College

Yes. Miller knows those people can't all be deported. He knows they will be in camps. We need to understand: many, many people in Trump's circle read about the Nazis, openly admire Hitler, and want to emulate what Hitler did. We have to accept how serious this is - we cannot hide from it.

This is literally what CURRENT LAW requires. It’s in the Constitution! www.politico.com/news/2026/02...

We live under a cartoonishly corrupt administration.

Not sure where the "technically it's not pedophilia" crowd retreats to from here, but I'm sure they're already workshopping something.

When I was a kid, the super bowl ads were all beer, cola, and Doritos. Then it was dot-coms. A couple years ago it was all crypto. This year is all AI slop, surveillance, and online betting. What a grim reflection of the world the tech oligarchs have wrought.

It bears repeating that Tom Homan is a fucking psycho and Greg Bovino's exile means functionally nothing when it comes to what's happening on the ground in Minnesota.

I slept in. Has anything stupid happened yet.

I don't understand these scams because if you're gonna do this, why have authors at all? Outsource it to readers. A reader can ask AI "write a romance book where Shrek battles the Lobster God of Nantucket." Then they read it, cry themselves to sleep, and repeat. I'm sure that'll work out fine.

The panda eats shoots and leaves. The RFK Jr eats meat and ferments.

Jeff Bezos makes enough money to fully fund this literally every two minutes.

Sure, Tom Homan got $50k in a Cava bag. But Melania's new bribe makes him look like an amateur. www.unchartedblue.com/plan-nein-fr...

It ain’t over, folks. It’s very ain’t over.

There we go. The usual Trump pattern: He saw a flattering pic of himself and reposted it, didn't know or care what was in the rest of it. (Malignant narcissism is a hell of a thing.) Also he's almost certainly lying about the 'people'. We've never seen any evidence of such a filter—not ever.

There's no part of this picture (of a Jan 6 seditionist) that isn't great. The PJ top. The camo leggings. The widdle vest, important when kicking a sculpture. The camera/composition making him look 14 inches high AT BEST. His gerbil-like expression of determination. Reno 911 could NEVER.

If you intentionally withhold medicine that a person in custody needs to live I'm pretty cool with calling that murder and I think most juries probably would agree. Shall we give it a try?

Every time I re-read Trump v. United States, it feels like getting hit in the head with a mallet.

We pretty much know how Trump posts. He scrolls until he finds something with his picture on it. If he likes the picture, he reposts it. He is mostly illiterate, so he frequently elevates hoaxes and cranks. He tends to post at weird hours when he is without staff and simmering with rage.

Quite a few news stories have insisted that Epstein's sex crimes club for his own benefit and he didn't procure "girls" for other men but the actual files seem to show that's ... really not true? Like, at all?

the republican party is led by a criminal and is affirmatively a pro-crime party

'What makes the Epstein material uniquely damning is not any single revelation — although some of those are jaw-dropping even to the jaded among us — but rather its overwhelming breadth.' www.unchartedblue.com/theres-no-gu...

That Katie Britt piece reeks of 'stolen valor', in that she wants to portray herself as having the decency she now believes voters want to see and her sole move towards it is calling up a reporter to produce a piece claiming that decency. No action. No introspection. No change. 1/2

Epstein's first house arrest and probation ended in Aug 2010, but he remained registered as a high risk sex offender. That is who Gelernter was recommending a 'v small goodlooking' student to the very next fall, keeping Epstein's 'habits' in mind. Yale, you've done it again.

80% of all "Trump said a thing" stories get framed as Trump "shifting" a previous position because journos still do not understand that Trump is (1) a bullshit artist (2) with dementia who neither remembers nor cares what his past positions were. It's all in the 'now'. Tomorrow it will change again!

I hope the judge uses this exchange as the basis for a larger inquiry into DoJ/DHS ignoring court orders. Start hauling people in one-by-one until things start getting fixed.

OH MY FKING FK WHY DID WE PUT ALL OF THE STUPIDEST MOST GULLIBLE PEOPLE IN AMERICA ON OUR TELEVISION SCREENS.

HAPPY SIXTH ANNIVERSARY to Susan Collins saying Trump learned a “pretty big lesson” from his first impeachment. thehill.com/homenews/sen...

This is just the same "we're going to cut our way to greatness" schtick that every failed exec team rolls out when their horrible decisions result in consequences. Homer Simpson "And now I'll pull my arms out with my face" dot gif.

Billionaires are categorically evil and should not exist but it seems that if 'good' billionaires wanted to prove us wrong a few of them could just step up and ... prove us wrong. It'd be pretty damn easy, and yet.

I got mad again. www.unchartedblue.com/you-dont-hat...

Is it just me or does it feel like the 'ushers' are on a hair trigger of late, lunging in front of the cameras to rescue Trump whenever he starts doing a dementia.

Johnson is both insanely dishonest and a genuine crackpot. High population centers (cities) take longer to count than rural areas, he knows this, we know this, it happens every single cycle, and assholes like Johnson try very hard to underfund high-pop precincts to worsen it. Vile, vile person.

I'm worried that the broader public isn't really understanding the Epstein Files. The problem isn't that everyone in the files is a secret pedophile, it's that all the people are corresponding with him because they *don't care that he's a pedophile*. It's a story of elite impunity.

happening this morning in Minneapolis -- ICE agents drawing guns on observers. I reiterate again that it is only a matter of time before DHS kills more innocent people in Minnesota. Congress needs to shut this shit down right now.

They wanted to destroy society because the existence of a high functioning society threatens their ability to enslave and rape children

This is now without question the biggest politico-financial scandal in United States history. Teapot Dome was trivial in comparison.

There might be a college Republican group somewhere that isn't full-blown Nazi but at this point I'm starting to doubt it. Most of them appear to land somewhere between "what if a militia was a debate club" and "support group for aspiring serial killers."

If these had been agents under my purview I would have *immediately* reprimanded and reassigned them after taking that call. Immediately. And the fucking DNI of all people facilitated it. That is so far out of bounds I can hardly fathom it.

I think we have to assume this was intentional until proven otherwise, given how many ppl in the Trump DoJ were specifically hired to protect Donald while punishing his victims.

"Oh yeah? Well you can't cancel me, I'm gonna cancel all of you first. You're all canceled. I'm gonna shut down the whole building so you don't even get the CHANCE to cancel. Also this building I just put my name on totally sucks."

I think this, more than anything, will help future generations understand exactly what kind of society had a chance to prevent the worst of climate change and instead did the exact opposite.

they won't rest until our kids are dead.

This shit hits like a sledgehammer right now. It's not even remotely an exaggeration.

Hey, remember when the Heritage Foundation was not a Dear Leader-ass Aryan-minded "communal wedding" "mentor couple" sex camp-having religious cult? (I don't. Just wondering if anyone else might.)

Just experienced the most intense tear gassing of my life by federal officers outside the ICE facility in Portland where marchers gathered. There was no fast exit as they indiscriminately threw loads of gas and flash bangs. Children were in the crowd screaming. @oregoncapitalchronicle.com

If you are like me you don't want to wade through 3 million gross Epstein docs so I snipped out the highlights and made an abridged version. I think it's mostly accurate, I guess, probably. www.unchartedblue.com/the-epstein-...

Judge sounds, um, a little ticked.
