Russia is at war with the West. Ukraine has given its peer democracies almost 12 years of precious time to prepare, while it held the aggressors at bay. Canada squandered Ukraine's gift. Incredibly, Canada still has no foreign intelligence service comparable to MI6.

"We can take it for granted that Trump and his advisors would greet a terrorist attack as an obvious chance to blame their chosen enemies, advance their project of authoritarian regime change, and distract from their own perilous follies. (1/2)

Massive insider trading. Thirty minutes before Trump’s China tariff announcement, a crypto “whale” opened a $100M+ short on Bitcoin. 4:30 PM: Whale opens $100M+ BTC short 4:50 PM: Trump announces 100% tariffs on China 5:20 PM: $19.3 B in liquidations hit the market The whale’s profit: $192 million

A state of war exists between Russia and the West. The West must be victorious. Russia must be defeated in war. Any politician who is not prepared to be a war leader should resign and make way for men and women of action.

Putin not Musk is probably the richest man on earth but that only makes the point stronger — control of media by oligarchs leads to folly, fascism, and war

Disney learned nothing from Andor.

The Russia-backed MAGA cult has destroyed the rule of law and democratic accountability in the United States. It is now completing the destruction of all the freedoms laid out in the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. The march to fascism is now, I believe, irreversible.

A free and democratic society cannot silence comedians because the President doesn’t like what they say. This is an attack on free speech and cannot be allowed to stand. All elected officials need to speak up and push back on this undemocratic act.

I stand with Jimmy Kimmel. F*ck Trump and F*ck ABC/Disney. I’ve met Jimmy and I’ve met Trump and one is a smart, funny and empathetic man and one is an illiterate racist POS.

Russia's war is Trump's war. Trump is a russian asset and a traitor to the United States.

Former Fox News host turned Donald Trump government lacky, forces US troops to stand in an empty parking lot to be filmed praying for the former MAGA propagandist Charlie Kirk, in an attempt to boost Trump's image amid growing calls to release the Epstein files.

Just Trump declaring war on a US city, a normal Saturday

Nothing will nail down a Nobel like rebranding to the “Department of War.” Also sorta overrides the key military mission of deterrence, which is a piece of our national & defense security strategy.

This is so funny. The US is already finding out how it goes when you try to interfere in a village where everyone knows each other, is related to each other, and no one has secrets. Namely that it doesn’t go very far. It was probably the Danish source’s second cousin who exposed the whole thing.

This interview, which is also available to listen to as a podcast, provides a useful overview of some of the dangerous trends we’ve been seeing in recent months regarding federalization and militarization of state and local police functions.

South Korea's exports to Kyrgyzstan in July 2025 are up 3100% from before Russia invaded Ukraine. This stuff is just so endlessly pathetic. Is there no end to Western greed that we feed the enemy while claiming to stand united with Ukraine against the invader? Come on...

Why TF isn't MSM reporting the hell out of this? "Israeli government official arrested in Nevada in internet crimes against children sting. Tom Artiom Alexandrovich was released and returned to Israel after being charged with luring a child for a sex act."

Headline of the Day:

Rachel Maddow is the first major media television host who I have heard report: TRUMP IS A DICTATOR and we are living in his dictatorship! It’s true and it’s going to get worse. Americans appear very confused about our government. Otherwise Trump would’ve never been elected. WAKE UP AMERICA!!!

Noel knows... ..."What Trump has done - and he didn’t do it alone, there are entire industries dedicated to the dumbing down of the American psyche - mostly focused on male toxicity as an entry point to the adrenalized stupidity we now see as commonplace both online and in our streets."

This is pretty awesome.

Authoritarianism demands submission to authority. Authoritarians will shorten the lives, in every way possible, to those who challenge them.

Every day @stephenking.bsky.social proves he is a really good writer.

When asked why Trump is so bizarrely loyal to Putin, I say we'll probably never know. He has an affinity for dictators as an aspiring one himself. Putin helped him get elected so can't be bad. Etc. But considering his lifestyle and the KGB's practices, it would be shocking if he *wasn't* cultivated.
