Former special counsel Robert Mueller was asked if Russia is still interfering in our elections. He responded “They’re doing it as we sit here” during his 2019 congressional testimony.

Heads up: The Russian government has been targeting Americans with covert online disinformation operations seeking to undermine public confidence the midterms — using a familiar playbook in an attempt to inject chaos into the voting season, according to U.S. officials familiar with the matter.

Never stop talking about the Epstein Files. Never stop talking about the Epstein Files. Never stop talking about the Epstein Files. No matter what happens or what disastrous distraction the orange felon deliberately creates.

I can't quite believe that the name of the company that did the reflecting pool, uh, waterproofing is called Atlantic Industrial Coatings. Next they will probably give Kruger Industrial Smoothing a no-bid contract to sand down the Washington Monument to a nub.

Tillis: You decided to kill that dog because you had not invested the appropriate time in training it, and then you have the audacity to say it’s a leadership lesson. You killed a goat and said it was behaving badly. You’re a farmer — you don’t castrate a goat, they behave badly.

We are in a war of Donald's choosing. Scores of Iranian children are dead; six American service members are dead. The depraved man responsible for those deaths went on a tangent about his gold curtains and his $400 million ballroom because those are his priorities.

Someone sent me this video of Trump’s goons in action today in the Twin Cities. The audio is disturbing.

NEW An initially-secret report for Customs and Border Patrol in 2013 found: In many vehicle shooting cases, the “driver was attempting to flee from the agents who intentionally put themselves into the exit path of the vehicle, thereby … creating justification for the use of deadly force.” 🧵

oldcronecore.bsky.social reposted

FYI: Judge Ellis (Chicago ICE case) noted in November that video evidence shows ICE "brake-checked other motorists in an attempt to force accidents that agents could then use as justifications for deploying force."

Putin must have read The Art of The Deal if he thought hundreds of thousands injured or killed was worth it for a lifetime of making Russia a pariah state with no reward besides a small land grab.

Trump on Americans' healthcare costs going up by 200-300%: "Don't make it sound so bad"

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

Q: At the end of this year, those extended Obamacare subsidies expire. What's your message to those 24m Americans who will see their premiums go up? TRUMP: Don't make it sound so bad. Obviously you're a sycophant for Democrats. You're obviously a provider of bad news for Republicans.

Remember folks: if you have any small amount of artistic talent, any sex appeal, or can make your friends laugh, the richest man on earth is crying screaming throwing up because he can’t be you.

It is an absolutely delightful irony that the richest man in the world is universally acknowledged to be a huge fucking loser who not a single living person envies in any way at all

HASSAN: What is habeas corpus? NOEM: Habeas corpus is a constitutional right that the president has to be able to remove people from this country HASSAN: That's incorrect

After the attack on Shapiro’s residence, I feel like it’s important to remind people how easy it is for people to become irrevocably radicalized online. Right wing media (both “new” and legacy) is using the same tactics we see groups like Al-Qaeda use to recruit.

DHS is threatening to revoke Harvard’s ability to host international students and the IRS is looking at revoking their tax exemption. The “stop the weaponization of government” crowd sure is quiet as fuck on this one.

Hegseth shared Yemen strike details in a separate signal chat that included his wife and brother. Cool, cool. Very normal administration we have here

oldcronecore.bsky.social reposted

I care less about Signal chats and more about the blacksite offshore concentration camps we're sending random people to without any semblance of a trial, so I'll be interested to see if the national media can rub their bellies and pat their heads at the same time this week. Historically they can't.

Fun fact: there was a trans woman in the bathroom I was using today. You’ll never believe what I did next: I pissed. I washed my hands. I nodded to them on the way out, and I went on about my day because I’m not a fucking psychopath who cares what bathroom people use.

Which is precisely why the GOP constantly seeks to control and degrade the education process. If you keep voters dumb and afraid, they’re far easier to manipulate.

John Collins@logicallyjc.bsky.social

Most of our problems could be solved by properly funding public education.

I mostly agree. It’s definitely an escalation and designed to send a message to Kyiv No, it’s not nuclear armageddon Ukraine doesn’t have exoatmospheric interception capability, but they do have some terminal phase interceptors that may (heavy emphasis on may) be of some use vs Russian IR/ICBMs.
