“Do you think that Trump is attempting to overthrow democracy?” I asked. “Because I do, and think it’s obvious that he is. And I think that the fact that mainstream media won't say it makes it more likely that it’s going to happen.”

I also found fault with the cutesy euphemisms used by Times, such as calling Trump’s authoritarianism his “expansive interpretation of presidential power” and saying his threat to seize the Panama Canal was a desire “to expand America’s footprint.”

When Patrick Healy, an NYT assistant managing editor, asked me to do a video interview for the Times’ new “Sound Off” feature, he cited this Bluesky post of mine. In the interview, I said their soft treatment of Karoline Leavitt was a case of the Times “awarding her style points” as a fascist liar.

I don’t understand why the NY Times let me rant against the Times on its own website. Healy seems like a sincere person, and I give him credit for making it happen. But the NY Times needs to stop pretending this is some brief detour in American politics when, in fact, a dictatorship is descending.

Dear Trump voters, You wanted mass deportations. Well, hundreds of thousands of people have been deported. NOW WHAT? • Did you get that job they supposedly took from you? • Did grocery prices drop? • Is rent cheaper? • Did your health insurance premiums drop? #TrumpsAbuseOfPower 🧵

The Talarico smear isnt a one-off. Its the same pipeline that laundered Hunter Bidens laptop and Russiagate hoaxes: Musk amplifies, the base repeats, then everyone pretends it was organic. The machine doesnt need the story to be true. It needs it to be loud.

just a heads up, the alt-right is descending into florid insanity over increasingly absurd conspiracy theories about James Talarico having the flu I think it was @jamellebouie.net who said Texas is a critical part of the conservative mythos and losing the state will break the party in absurd ways
gotta say, seeing the alt-right descend into florid insanity over increasingly absurd conspiracy theories about James Talarico catching the flu is one of the more bizarre discourse cycles I’ve seen in a while

It's already illegal. Congress banned it near-unanimously in 2022. That law allows the ban to be lifted only if Russia withdraws from Ukraine. He's simply breaking the law that's already on the books.

NEW: The head of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops has issued a statement firmly condemning plans to livestream the execution of Nidal Malik Hasan. Archbishop Paul Coakley calls the decision “a barbaric promotion of a culture of death and must be reconsidered.” www.usccb.org/news/2026/us...

WASHINGTON - Yesterday, the U.S.
Department of War announced that the firing squad execution of Nidal Hasan, the man convicted of killing 13 people and injuring 32 at Fort Hood, Texas in 2009, would be publicly livestreamed. Archbishop Paul S. Coakley, president of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops issued the following statement sharply condemning the decision of the U.S. government:
"It is with shock and great sorrow that I have learned of the Department of War's decision to publicly livestream the execution of Nidal Hassan. Our God is the God of life. In no way can Hassan's actions be condoned but this decision is a barbaric promotion of a culture of death and must be reconsidered. The word of God exhorts us: 'do not repay anyone evil for evil' (Romans 12:17). The public execution even of one who has done grave harm will only further undermine the moral fabric of our nation and be a blight on the conscience of its people.United States

7 shots fired into an SUV with a 5-year-old child in the back seat as the vehicle was moving away. Markwayne Mullin claims the driver “weaponized” his vehicle. Bullshit! “Weaponized vehicle” has become ICE’s go-to excuse for shooting folks. Where’s the evidence? It’s not in this new footage.
