NEW on @zeteo.com Sources say Amy Acton's estranged mom seemed mentally unwell when Ramaswamy's ad was filmed & she had trouble keeping a coherent narrative on the past. Some wanted to vet her more, but *Ramaswamy himself* wanted to pushed ahead. From @jsweetli.bsky.social & @swin24.bsky.social:

I can't really believe it but it seems to be the case that the Times has not covered a credible accusation of rape against the President of the United States, but has two solid stories on Obama's cheesecake factory quip.

Great to see @zachsdorfman.bsky.social with the @washingtonpost.com's lead story today. Even better to read the hat-tip to @thehighside.bsky.social, a reference to this story he co-wrote for us with @jackmurphyrgr.bsky.social and @seandnaylor.bsky.social: thehighside.substack.com/p/the-school...

In the latest episode of DISARMED, @newsguy.bsky.social tells me that Voice of America is a victim of state capture. How did VOA contribute to America's information defenses, and what do we lose now that its audience of 350M+ is abandoned to our adversaries? www.thewayfinder.net/p/the-people...

Abandon any fantasies about an affirmative legislative agenda. None of that is happening. You get to throw a wrench in the gears of a fascist meat-grinder. That’s it. Pretending you can do anything else is just turning the crank on the grinder.

If in the foul Year of our Lord two thousand and twenty-six you imagine a midterm wave is an opportunity to buckle down and hammer out some sensible bipartisan legislation, find another hobby and cede the field to someone who understands what time it is.

No. Your attitude has to be that absolutely nothing will get done. If you’re trying to “pass common-sense legislation to help the American people”in this environment you’re a fucking traitor.

I know there’s a lot going on, but it should be a bigger deal that the Attorney General of Florida said he’s meddling in surrogacy cases as a way to get courts to recognize fetal personhood—which would ban abortion, IVF, and more. @autonomynews.co

“Businessman & politician Simón Levy,” a Trump ally, “claimed on social media that a US operation was underway to ensure Bolsonaro’s security & identified [Rubio] as its alleged coordinator.
