I'm not exaggerating when I say that this is the best description of my ideology I've ever read. From "Liberalism Did Not Fail, Conservatism Did" by @polphilpod.bsky.social. www.liberalcurrents.com/liberalism-d...

BREAKING: MS NOW White House reporter Laura Barrón-López was denied entry to the White House despite an overnight court order to restore press access to MS NOW, Politico and CNN. MS NOW's Jonathan Lemire reports:

In case you missed it: last night, CBS News awarded the Mike Wallace Memorial Scholarship to Santiago Campos, a high school journalist. In accepting, he took the time to condemn the direction of CBS News to much surprise and applause from the audience.

March. Impeach. Convict. #NoKings

President Occasio-Cortez is what the world needs America to choose.

A Minneapolis knitting shop has resurrected the design of a Norwegian cap worn to protest Nazi occupation. Its owner says the money raised from hat pattern sales will support the local immigrant community.

Vice President JD Vance gets roundly booed at the opening ceremony of the Milano-Cortina 2026 Olympics. "Those are a lot of boos for him, whistling jeering," says the presenter. US athletes receive a warm welcome from fans, though.

The Boss. The Boss. The Boss.

I wonder whether others learn from the errors I made by taking their advice.

a man who gets an email like this from his own mother should be legally required to reveal it to every woman he ever meets ever ever

A key figure in US politics that I think a lot of European observers obsessed with MAGA voters haven't really got their heads around is your average boring middle class suburban voter who in the face of incomprehensible reactionary chaos hankers after a Normie Revolution.

Here's a photo of my friend and colleague, Jorge Bautista, getting shot in the face with a flashbang grenade. The ICE Agent is so afraid of Jorge (who was posing no threat) that he has wet himself. Please share this photo. Everyone needs to know what cowards ICE agents are.

I’ve seen just one counter-protester at No Kings San Diego. He’s got a Trump 2024 flag and this guy has been following him around for probably an hour playing Benny Hill and circus music.

Pete Hegseth and Donald Trump do not see the military as a tool to win wars, but as a way to express cruelty.

Numbers, long used for the purposes of quantification and measurement, are being debased into nothing more than a means of delivering hyperbole.

REPORTER: Can you do better than a 15% tariff rate for the EU? TRUMP: Better meaning lower? No

brilliant

Following a rich white man to war because you didn’t like the sound of a black woman laughing will go down in American history as one of the stupidest things ever.

Just shoot a reporter on live TV, what can possibly be wrong with that?

This is my new personal creed.

since we can't post the entire video on bluesky, here's a snippet:

Monica Isham is the 1st woman & 1st minority to serve as a circuit court judge in Sawyer County. In an email to all Wisconsin state judges she said: “If there is no support for us, l will refuse to hold court. If this costs me my job or gets me arrested, then at least I know I did the right thing.”

BUT THERE'S MORE: After declaring that both the wife and husband are not in Tren de Aragua and must be released, Judge Briones SPONTANEOUSLY (without being asked) issued an injunction blocking the use of the Alien Enemies Act to deport anyone in the Western District of Texas without 21 days notice!

This is just straight up nazi shit

hard to think of a group of people more self-owned than the “free-speech,”centrist, anti-woke, anti-anti-trump “have to hand it to him” crowd

I remember playing Star Trek 25th Anniversary in 1992 and Star Trek Judgement Rites in 1993. I’d really like to see this material released as a game or as a photorealistic rendered film.

Make clerical error, ignore fundamental rights, deny due process, vilify victim.

The only thing she’s right about is that it’s an “incredible plan” because indeed it lacks credibility.

Seems like it would be handy to codify a restriction on governmental interference somewhere, maybe close to the other nine things the US government is barred from doing, like curbing citizen’s rights to carry firearms. Just an idea in case you don’t like the sound of “political commissars vetting”.

This is how Kaganovich talked about Stalin.

Fuck yes they are

you know things are going well when they break out the turnip photos

I might make it a habit to post this from time to time.
