We are seven months away from the most consequential midterm election in US history. Meanwhile, we are fighting a war. These are the structural conditions for a coup attempt in which a president tries to nullify elections and take permanent power as a dictator. snyder.substack.com/p/the-next-c...

It's the attribution of my qualms with the framing as unhinged that I am responding to. When so many journalists are threatened every day, the choice to identify my interpretation of the article as unhinged is quite disturbing.

Okay, I understand. But the question remains why we are still okay with the idea that the intelligence of Crockett can be called into question. The entire framing of the article is skewed towards an interpretation that casts her as already deficient in some way. Surely, this should be questioned.

If we want to think about what unhinged is, we should more fully examine that damaging rhetoric towards reporters who happen to ask critical questions in the Oval Office. That is unhinged. I am simply asking coverage of Crockett's decision to not cast her as someone w/o the intelligence to run.

I am responding to the spin being put on Crockett's decision to run. It seems like people are already saying this is an unthinkable thing to do, and the message that she was somehow trapped into it reiterates the sentiment that she is lacking in intelligence. How is that unhinged?

This is disturbing to me because it sounds like you are saying Crockett was trapped into running and that she is not electable. Why the ambiguity within your own party? I hope to see a post soon supporting Crockett fully.

Heard on the local news: in my home state, homelessness is up 9% from last year, and the percentage of people living outside has increased by 65%. This, nestled in between talk on the importance of bundling up at the bus stop. Leaders, where are you in the midst of this growing crisis?

"In 2025, 40% of women aged 15 to 44 say they would move abroad permanently if they had the opportunity. The current figure is four times higher than the 10% who shared this desire in 2014, when it was generally in line with other age and gender groups."

There is no excuse for caving in. The idea that the illegal actions of this administration regarding SNAP and the bullying are somehow valid reasons to walk back promises to the American people on healthcare is absurd. Dems must hold the line.

Venezuelan opposition leader Maria Corina Machado has been awarded this year's Nobel Peace Prize. "When authoritarians seize power, it is crucial to recognise courageous defenders of freedom who rise and resist," the Norwegian Nobel Committee said in its citation.

If ABC can bring back Jimmy Kimmel, MSNBC can bring back Joy Reid. That is, if she would even want to return after her erasure from the programming. Now I'm tagging you, @msnbc.com. The sense of irony on the reporting about Kimmel's cancellation isn't lost on MSNBC viewers. Here's looking at you.

Where is the mug shot? At least show them for what they are. Representation matters. Public opinion is getting shaped one misrepresentation at a time. And the subtitle lists a victim as an accuser rather than a victim. This bothers me!

I find it disturbing how very many images of Epstein and Maxwell are circulating that show the two as a happy, blissful, romantic couple. Always dressed up, smiling, Maxwell looks to be anything but the victimizer she is. The news retraumatizes victims with every pic. @nicollewallace.bsky.social

Yes, and also, we MUST HOLD MEDIA OUTLETS to account when they erase, omit, revise, and misrepresent our actions of strategic noncompliance. Have had it with CBS, NBC, ABC, etc., for failing us every day in every way. People have no idea what is happening in this country because of it.

The King, on his way to play golf one day, saw poor and unhoused people. Rather than extend compassion (he was a rich king), he called all of his horses and men to trample over them and ordered tenfold the brigade to violently treat them. Thus begins the end of the first summer of the second reign.

good Lord, no pun intended, can these people stop feeling threatened by the fact that other people are just able to live their lives? I can't wrap my head around the fact that so many in the US feel as if they themselves are under attack bc other people have a chance at living their lives. Bizarre.

Is ANYONE keeping tabs on the demographics of the people they are firing? Their actions are so obviously based in racism, sexism, and bigotry of all kinds. I am hoping for a report on this soon from any of the mainstream media outlets.

I find this message deeply disturbing and I am very disappointed that you would have introduced such a bill. Why would you attempt to stop all asylum seekers and give the power to completely shut down the border? I find this discordant with how you are projecting yourself. I will call your office.
