Thinking again about how Mike Johnson as Speaker and efforts to oust him failing was sold to us as a masterful Democrat strategy orchestrated by Dem leadership.

Brown people are being put in concentration camps. Activists are getting charged for acting on their first amendment rights. The FBI has named any form of left wing ideology terrorism. But abusers now face fewer sanctions than a brief moment it seemed they might. For Andreessen, this is freedom.

@pmarca
It's incredible the extent to which the social sanctioning engine has simply seized up. Hit pieces that would have been 5-alarm fires 5 years ago now come and go with no notice. Nobody cares, it's over.

The US reportedly waited to strike the bridge in Iran a second time until rescue workers and others in the area gathered to help the wounded, which then killed at least eight people. Authorities in Iran are describing it as an act of terrorism.

There's a hauntingly beautiful irony in these morons thinking that carefully crafted American hegemony was actually weak and woke, and they would be the ones who would do Power and Dominance properly, and immediately bringing everything crashing down

heartbroken to learn the pope sympathizes with the poor. how can i continue to believe in god
The Pope tweets: "The poor are not there by chance or by blind and cruel fate. Nor, for most of them, is poverty a choice. Yet, there are those who still presume to make this claim, thus revealing their own blindness and cruelty. #DilexiTe"

Someone replies: "I was so hopeful I could be a Catholic again after the disaster that Francis was, guess we just get Francis 2.0 now and I am heartbroken.  How do I stay a Catholic now...I don't want to lose faith but I am. You belong to someone else, not God."

Look. Invading our own country is about as straightforward a case as you can have for impeachment. The GOP abandoning the Constitution is kind of the only story there is and it gets no coverage.

Becoming increasingly clear we’re gonna have to build a parallel infrastructure for all the media we really love. The reason all of this is happening under the color of law is hyperconsolidation, dissent being traded straight up for merger approval, or fear of harassment.

On Thursday, NPR invited CPAC Chair Matt Schlapp to pay tribute to his friend, Charlie Kirk, which he did, at length.. But he ended up getting angry and cutting the interview short. This is what angered him: www.npr.org/2025/09/11/n...
SCHLAPP: And the other thing that needs to happen is, quite frankly, people in the media - we need to stop villainizing people. You know, people have ideas, and, you know, might not like them. There's a lot of people whose ideas I think are abhorrent. But, you know, would I help them change their tire if they were on the side of the road? Hope I would.
MARTIN: But, you know, on Newsmax, yesterday, you called on leaders of the left to stop normalizing hatred and violence. Are you also calling on leaders of the right to do the same?
SCHLAPP: Everyone should stop doing that, but the only difference is in the age of Trump is that, you know, there has been a outrageous commentary that goes on and isn't stopped...
MARTIN: Two months ago...
SCHLAPP: ...By people...
MARTIN: ...Two elected Democratic state officials and their spouses were shot in Minnesota by a man who had a hit list of 45 elected Democrats he intended to kill. Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's husband attacked in his home, Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro's official residence set on fire.
This would seem...
SCHLAPP: Yeah, these were...
MARTIN: ...To be an equal opportunity problem, right?

I think one of the reasons the loss of Medicaid and possibly rural hospitals does not concern rural voters is because their experience with the healthcare system saddled them with debt.
