Here is @jackshafer.bsky.social’s classic 2012 column on the nature of political leaks: their many purposes, motivations and uses; essential context for the pissy administration crackdown on a @dropsitenews.com journalist and her source web.archive.org/web/20120628...

web.archive.orgWhy leaks are good for youCritics maintain that recent national security leaks damage the country and are designed to enhance the president's reputation in an election year. But as often as not, leaks are a vital way of having an urgently needed policy debate.

If you asked people in the street to guess how much of Europe's energy is produced fossil-free (renewables or electric), I bet they would not guess "over seventy percent". But it's true, in fact only three countries (Poland, Cyprus and Malta) are under 50%, while five are over 90%.

Is Trump a serial sexual predator and pedophile? The House Judiciary Committee Dems issue a 50-page report looking at that question and consolidating the evidence. It's a formidable document. And we still hear apologists on air denying the existence of such evidence. Shameful.

ms.nowHouse Judiciary Democrats release 50-page report on Trump’s alleged involvement in Epstein filesThe report — issued just eight days before the election — makes multiple, uncorroborated allegations against the president while also detailing discrepancies in his statements about Epstein.

If we had a competent opposition they would be smacking this slow fat softball out of the park. Who the hell is Netanyahu to tell our country what to do? What does “finish the job” actually mean and what are its costs in risk, lives, money, gas prices, to Americans? Instead we have Chuck & Hakeem.

Breaking news: Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Wednesday night that the Iranian regime must be overthrown once and for all. So long as the Iranian regime remains standing, Netanyahu said, Israel faces an “existential threat.”

On this day in 1916, police raided Margaret Sanger’s birth control clinic in Brooklyn, the first such clinic in the U.S. The clinic purportedly violated the Comstock Act of 1873, which prohibits circulation of “obscene” or “indecent” information. That act remains in place to date. #WeTheMen

It's so funny to have dinner with the president and focus on his "etiquette" like he is a misbehaving 13-year-old who just got back from being sent to boarding school and has really shown improved behavior

The Tennessee Holler @thetnholler.bsky.social

“Yeah I did it again, bitches. Fuck you, I like these dinners.” @billmaher lashes out, defends himself for having dinner with Trump again. He says Trump had good etiquette, never lost his temper or yelled… How nice! Imagine being this far up your own ass.

The USA’s failure to punish Trump for Jan 6th was just an historic betrayal of global democracy. What a shameful, abject and total failure of institutions and civil society.

This is seriously concerning. So much rides on this election -- the safety of the Amazon, people's rights, oversight on corruption, whether the US's expanding secret war in latin America will get a new partner -- and local far right leaders look to be trying to shut out voters and steal the election

NEW on @zeteo.com — Venues are *pulling out* of hosting Vivek Ramaswamy for his bus tour across Ohio in the closing days of the election. “We’re getting calls that people don’t want him there,” a top Ohio Republican says. “It’s that damn ad.” From @andrewperez.bsky.social and @swin24.bsky.social:

@gabrielzucman.bsky.social: So let met get that straight: paying a wealth tax is impossible (“billionaires have no liquidity”, “it would be taxing unrealized gains”, “their wealth is virtual”) but one man paying half a billion to influence elections is possible. Did I understand well?
