This is fucking insane. It reads like a bad spy novel. The corruption is almost cartoonish at this point. www.vanityfair.com/story/jared-...

If this is accurate, Elon lied about not having control over Starshield, and he lied about the administration making the decision. More importantly, why is a private citizen even *able* to make decisions that could hinder US military operations?

Three days after the August primary, election workers in one Washington county went to check for late mail-in ballots. They expected no more than a few dozen. Instead, there were more than 500 — each a vote that wouldn’t count.

In 2024, a Russian disinformation network spread rumors about the then-vice presidential Democratic candidate Tim Walz assaulting a student while he was a teacher. Fast forward two years, and the same network spread similar rumours about James Talarico before midterms.

"Right now, we’re living in Trump’s world, in Vance’s world, in Hegseth’s world. This is what a world without empathy looks like. It’s a world of constant othering, of constant rage, of a constant belief that life is a zero-sum game. But nothing flourishes in that world." — @snipy.bsky.social

Maybe if we tell Republicans that data centers cause transgender transformations they'll ban data centers instead of books and schools.

This year was France’s hottest on record, and the country counted 8,000 excess deaths during the summer’s heat waves. The country’s schools weren’t built for that.

Here’s why:

When you get fired so quickly the TikToks announcing your hire are still being pushed out to users This *just* showed up as I was scrolling TikTok (10:40PM ET), roughly 8.5 hours after Zacharia was fired The level of incompetence in this White House would be considered too comical for *The Office*

I think it’s time for the US to get a new President. Putin just isn’t cutting it

The President of the United States just hallucinated taking control of an entire country What are we doing here, America, how has his ass not been 25th already

Oklahoma had approved the well, which injected toxic oil field wastewater underground, without first ensuring it would not pollute the city of Enid’s groundwater. The well then repeatedly failed structural integrity tests. with @readfrontier.bsky.social

ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE

Artificial Intelligence.

📌This naked statue of Trump, The Orange Plague, in the European Parliament in Strasbourg is exactly how you handle this deviant, who uses his office to celebrate himself, and crush others. He needs to know that THIS is how he will be remembered when he finally takes his last gasp.

Bitch

the cheering after the completely nonsensical "let 'em take out Los Angeles, let 'em take out San Diego" is really one of those moments that perfectly crystalizes how these ghouls do not deserve pity nor rehabilitation into the body politic. Crush their movement and drive them from power forever.

here's Monday's post: "What the fuck is this?" — How did we Nazi this coming? thanks for reading, and please sign up for my daily newsletter to keep getting the good stuff —

WATCH: In late 2024, FBI investigators had enough evidence to launch a sweeping bribery probe of politicians including Sen. Susan Collins — until Trump gutted the unit in charge. ProPublica revealed the existence of the case for the first time. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jqyiFFB7Kjg

Don't try to convert Trump voters. Make voting for Trump an unbearable embarrassment. Get them to stay home on Midterm election day. Original post: https://bsky.app/profile/did:plc:izxpomdyri45gzhppiiyattq/post/3mwzcvthdgs2p

I think we all saw that coming

Hope not. We need everyone on our side of the aisle to get the fuck over themselves and realize that we’re all on the same side here. Eyes on the prize. This election is too important to lose over ANY sort of purity test.

Just a reminder... Donald Trump paid nearly $200,000 in taxes to China New York Times says records reveal company bank account in China, and documents show he paid more tax there than at home (!) www.theguardian.com/world/2020/o...

Meanwhile back in 2012...

Trump, for over a decade: "I wouldn't give him a state dinner." This week: A full state dinner at the White House for China's Xi Jinping, complete with the arrival ceremony, a gift, and billionaires everywhere.

Where can a citizen get a record of how their vote was recorded? If we really wanted to talk transparency then I should know if my vote was changed. Until then we have only the assurances of people I don’t trust.

“We’re going to use all of our authority as members of Congress to fight these atrocities," said Democratic House nominee—and protester—Chris Rabb.

Dollars to donuts she saw something showing that Americans are spending more money on beef, and she didn’t do the math to realize that we are spending more money while getting less beef. Weaponizing ignorance is a nice way to pay homage to Dear Leader.

Fed raises rates .25% The temper tantrum coming from Trump will be one for the ages

Another Kash Patel hearing, another day he's not asked about the $25,000 he got from a Russian-linked propagandist. @davidcorn.bsky.social reports in this video from 2025:

"ICE agents were caught on video pulling one teen from the car and punching him repeatedly in the face while he lay on the ground. The other teen, Luis Ochoa, said he informed the ICE agents he was a citizen but was told, 'I don’t give a damn.… Your parents can’t help you now.'"

Here is AOC and Mamdani laughing at the solemn 9/11 commemoration. Oh wait…

If Sam Altman, Dario Amodei, and Elon Musk all agree that we have to slow down - and now - something serious clearly happened with a frontier AI model. Journalists should be digging in to this. We aren’t getting the whole story here.

I need y'all to get a grip.

This is stochastic terrorism. Ted Cruz is an extremist encouraging violence.

This is what Trump is excusing when he says of Xi that “we spy on them too” — “Before Iran carried out its attack that killed 3 US troops, Tehran acquired images of the base in Jordan from China … It’s clearest evidence so far that Chinese support for Iran has had lethal consequences for US forces”

Hegseth Must Go If Trump won’t fire him, Congress must impeach him robertreich.substack.com/p/hegseth-mu...

Why did DHS create this website? More importantly, why since Democracy Docket published its story, is it now down? www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

The president of the United States is a felon.

We so wanted to believe there was unanimous love and respect for Dolly Parton. But the rancid presence in the White House reminds us: we are never all the same. There will always be monsters among us.
