Indeed. We are not forcing upon Graham the memory of him being a villain, a coward, and a malignant presence in the country; that was the legacy he chose again and again. He earned our contempt, as has everyone else on his path.

Lindsey Graham spent the last decade of his life in public service as a US Senator, trying hard to be remembered as an enemy of the Constitution who worked to destroy American democracy and exhibited occasional signs that he knew why that was bad but kept doing it anyway. I will honor his choice.

This is interesting. More than 200 of the world’s political, financial, and tech elites registered for a private retreat organized by Dialog, the secretive invitation-only network co-founded by billionaire investor Peter Thiel.

Scott Pelley told the truth today. Bari Weiss "is murdering ‘60 Minutes’...She was brought in to kill it, and she’s been doing exactly that.” We need independent media that the rightwing can't buy. Democracy Docket is fearlessly pro-democracy. Help it grow by subscribing now. bit.ly/4qmEiFz

Scott Pelley is a hero, and it really makes you wonder: where has this spirit been? In other media figures, other executives, other people who have seen these oligarchs degrade everything of value in this country? Why is it so striking & unusual for *anyone to fight back*?

Oliver Darcy got the audio of the heated 60 Minutes meeting where Scott Pelley dressed Nick Bilton down! "You know what was rude? Black Thursday. That was the absolute definition of rudeness. Telling Tanya Simon she had to be out of here at five o'clock." www.status.news/p/scott-pell...

Morning everyone. Do you know that your President just exempted himself, his family, and all his family's companies from our tax laws? You are subject to the law. Now he is not. No one should not pretend this is okay or normal. It's an ongoing constitutional crisis.

Pope Leo XIV: Jesus told us, blessed are the peacemakers. But woe to those who manipulate religion and the very name of God for their own military, economic, or political gain, dragging that which is sacred into darkness and filth.

5/ And on the Strait of Hormuz, they had NO PLAN. I can't go into more detail about how Iran gums up the Strait, but suffice it say, right now, they don't know how to get it safely back open. Which is unforgiveable, because this part of the disaster was 100% foreseeable.

Classy! "Andrew was seen as a liability. He went off script, he thought he was an expert, when he wasn't. He thought he was funny, when he was being rude to people," said the former civil servant.

John Self@john-self.bsky.social

Doesn't look like this story is going to have a happy ending for Andrew.

If you are the urologist treating Epstein, and you have treated him for gonorrhea, chronic prostatitis and are regularly screening him for STIs. And Epstein’s assistant books haircuts for you and you have dinner with him and Woody, and this is after 2008, you should know what is going on, right?

Raw Story: The police chief of a Minnesota city intervened to prevent ICE from arresting a Minnesotan. ICE chased her, boxed her in, drug her from her car & took her. The chief called an ICE supervisor & the woman was returned & driven home by the chief.❤️ #ProudBlue #Pinks #SheShed #ICEholes

Disgusting. All of these men are disgusting. I guess now we know why Wexner was shelling out so much money to Epstein.

Are we Putin’s Russia yet? Or maybe Xi’s China? Don Lemon, the former CNN anchor, was arrested by federal agents in Los Angeles on January 29, 2026, linked to his coverage of an anti-ICE protest that disrupted a church service in St. Paul, Minnesota, on January 18. abc7.com/post/don-lem...
