This dog whistle keeps getting blown. Musk and Trump Co. Keep prepping the information sphere with violence.

Jamelle Bouie: "Why Do We Tolerate Elon Musk’s Racist Commentary?" Musk's racist radicalisation - he is promoting remigration + openly endorsing violence against anybody who opposes it - still tends to be seen as a peripheral bolt-on to his techno-utopianism. www.nytimes.com/2026/07/29/o...

At this point, the case that Pete Hegseth is a Russian stooge is pretty strong. And there's no shortage of folks in upper echelons in the Pentagon who are persuaded of that, too.

A reporter must ask RFK jr, in his infinite wisdom, to recite, for the American people, a summary of the scientific method. This abject racist can't do it.

RFK: "There's five hundred million Arabs in the world. And yet they don't produce science. They don't win the Nobel Prize. They don't win the Fields Prize. They don't win the Wolf Prize. They don't produce literature."

Guys, please stop calling Trump a far-right authoritarian

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

Trump calls for Ilhan Omar to immediately resign & says, "please inform our great Speaker, James Michael Johnson that the Democrat Party has conceded her seat ... she will not be allowed to me a member of that body any longer" Trump's crowd in Iowa then starts chanting "Lock her up! Lock her up!"

Justice Kagan is right. The Roberts Court has been dividing Americans and bolstering far-right and big-money causes for years, but "court decorum" must have prevented Kagan from stating the obvious -- till now. The situation is so bad that she made the decision to be honest with Americans.

Four brothers went to war against Hitler. Three were killed. The fourth survived, and his grandson, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, is the president of Ukraine. Zelensky comes from a family that fought tyrants: Trump negotiates with them while demanding concessions from their victims.

Zelenskyy’s "Why would you restrict a country fighting for its survival?" is a line people/their AI robot teachers will quote when they study the Russia/Ukraine war. It doesn't matter who decided to shut Starlink off. Keeping it off is a choice that’s allowing drones to kill civilians.

Israeli settlers, all men, brutally attacked a US journalist, a woman, in an attempted lynching. The Israeli military provided the attackers with cover using tear gas and machine gun fire. Palestinians intervened to rescue her from being beaten to death.
