There is a lot to say about the Nolan Odyssey movie. But one point that I think has not been emphasized enough is: this is a film about living in LA, as Nolan, my erstwhile British compatriot and age mate, has done for years. I gather it’s a strange place.

Well…isn’t this a little gem. @jenpsaki.bsky.social did you know about this?

A DOGE staffer assigned to the National Endowment for the Humanities to flag grants for "DEI" tries to explain what "DEI" is. This deposition is part of a lawsuit by the @acls1919.bsky.social, @historians.org and @modernlanguage.bsky.social.

Alex Pretti, a 37-year-old intensive care unit nurse was shot and killed by federal agents in Minneapolis, on January 24. DHS claims he died after an armed struggle, but videos of the incident appears to contradict that claim. Read our analysis here: www.bellingcat.com/news/2026/01...

"My father fled to California six years later to become an American citizen. Why America? Because he sensed that Americans believed not only in 'life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness' but also in due process and in the law itself." www.thebulwark.com/p/my-fathers...

He’s absolutely insane.

“My sons are into it. I’m glad they are. It’s probably a great industry, crypto.” (Wasn’t so long ago that much of the press was losing its mind over Hunter Biden’s overpriced paintings)

You need to understand that he actually believes it is illegal to criticize him. Why? Because Trump believes he - not the people - decides the law. This is why we are in the middle of, not on the verge of, a totalitarian takeover.

It’s called murder. Murder, assassination, execution, extermination. The United States is a criminal state.

He’s an EMT, 25yrs experience. Did his own research on genetics and determined mRNA vax is genocide. Why are we worried about science brain drain?

A poll from the journal Nature found that 75% of researchers in the U.S. are considering leaving the country. That includes a man who’s been dubbed the "Mozart of Math." (This PBS story on the scientific brain drain is heartbreaking & ominous for medicine, imo.) www.youtube.com/watch?v=yLvO...

Stefanik endorsed, campaigned, and fundraised for George Santos.

“In a very meaningful way, Donald Trump is erasing the work and the space that has been painstakingly carved out for women both at the White House, and throughout this country.” (continued in Substack 👇) open.substack.com/pub/mamasiss...

"Republicans are on an unprecedented five week recess from Congress because they don't want to talk about why they're cutting health care to pay for a billionaire tax cut, and they don't want to talk about the President's lawlessness and corruption."

More murders ordered by Trump.

This is who they are.

I sure hope the ADL is proud that they stuck up for Elon Musk when he did a Nazi salute back in January.

Here are two minutes of lowlights from Trump’s rambling, hour-long address to the UN General Assembly that Twitter is calling one of the most embarrassing moments in recent US history. Subscribe to zeteo.com for more.

We are fast becoming a banana republic, with two standards of justice. If you oppose the leader, you go to jail just for speech. If you're a loyalist, you get immunity for your crimes. That's what happens in Iran - not the United States. This is a decision moment for America.

This sounds like a good old fashioned American Nazi rally. I’m not making a joke or trying to be clever. Miller wants to annihilate the left.

Trump is a vile, disgusting person.

Donald Trump responds to Tom Homan bribe story youtu.be/r5jEij3MvPQ?...

Dutch late night TV has its take

This playbook was written 100 years ago.

I’m just saying this for my mental health. The president of the United States is a piece of shit.

Stephen Colbert’s opening tonight. Priceless! Shut your Trap!

Sinclair is a major union buster. Also turned small local stations into turnkey operations with “local” news coming from other, larger stations. Media consolidation now has the power to squelch the first amendment.

This was always the plan.

1) First amendment always the first casualty. 2) Trump is the reason times not “normal “ 3) These people will follow their füher wherever he leads them.

This pathetic factotum is bathing himself in the fetid attention he gets from the media, especially from water-carrying “podcasters.” His flaccid posturing would be sad if it were not quite so obviously venal www.politico.com/news/2025/09...

These are the men who are actively destroying the future of every man, woman and child on the planet. Is this hate speech? Is this safe to say?

Lash Patel is a piece of shit.

Back in the USSR, you don’t how lucky you are.

If this is the FCC’s standard then Trump and Gang should never be televised.

The Vice President of the United States is a liar. Also a piece of shit.

absolutely repugnant, gutfeld completely dismisses the assassination of melissa hortman, calls it a "bull shit" example of political violence

Once again, the President of the United States is a piece of shit.

It's one thing to say we don't trust the administration's account of Kirk's murder. But the reality is they've shared next to no actual information about it, despite seeming to have access to a ton of evidence. talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/keep-...

This is extrajudicial execution, without any clear threat to the US, no authorization from Congress, and far beyond even Article II. The military is not the president's personal hit squad. Or wasn't, until now.

This is as close as Trump will ever come to admitting he’s a complete fuck up.

To be clear, the President of the United States is a piece of shit.

Musk longs for days when Britain did great things. Refrains from calling to exterminate all the brutes.

White South African urges race war in UK.

I guess you’d call this the ‘farce’ phase of history.

Was Trump friends with OJ? Asking for a friend.

Holy shit…You can’t make this up: a plane is circling Soldier Field before the Bears home opener with a banner that reads— “HEY ICE, MASKS ARE FOR CUCKS.” Also the trolling is incredible for those that told us to stop wearing masks during the pandemic.
