describing elon musk as racist is not partisan. it is a clear description of a major figure that has tons of evidence to back it up. when the mainstream press chooses to ignore this, they are endorsing his bigotry.

The President of the United States, in front of a crowd of his supporters, during a televised rally, admits to a Quid Pro Quo pardon, which is a felony and impeachable offence. And absolutely nothing will happen, because his party, which controls congress, are fascist collaborators and sycophants.

People forget that J6 was successful. Everyone who participated was let out of jail and the guy who perpetrated it is President again. There were no consequences. They have plenty of incentive to do a much bigger and worse version.

Having written and now edited my piece, my gut is that it's 6-2 for the fossil fuel companies. I think the *chaos* of ruling for Boulder will be too much for Roberts and Kagan. But *how* exactly they get there, I can still only guess.

The New York Times has a choice of whether to cover Trumpism as A) an amusing and colorful example of the oddity of American politics, or B) an existential threat to the future of everyone you know and love. Over and over, they choose A. They trivialize themselves.

In a normal administration counterintelligence agents at the FBI would be investigating this photo. In this administration, the FBI director is in the photo.
Michael Weiss: Why, that’s Ali Abdelaziz is on the far left. Manages a lot of Russian, Belarusian and Chechen MMA fighters including Khamzat Chimaev, who is close to Kadyrov. Abdelaziz was an FBI informant until the Bureau dropped him because they suspected he was a double agent. Looks like Ka$h (far right) has forgiven and forgotten. These MAGA weddings are Mos Eisley cantinas for counterintelligence.

Yes. It does not matter if you think the Kennedy Center is bougie: private individuals do not get to destroy public goods. If you budge one iota on this stance, then you lose the right to object when he demands bits of the national parks as a treat. You've already agreed with him on the principle.

You're right and we can see part of the proof now: but for GWB's packing of the federal courts with rabid partisans, 99% of what Trump has done is instantly snuffed out. DOGE never happens, DHS concentration camps never happen, the list goes on and on.

25 yrs ago Bush & his Republican admin failed to prevent the largest terrorist attack in US history despite early warnings. Then stoked 9/11 fear to invade Iraq w/ no evidence Saddam’s gov't planned the attacks worked with al-Qaeda or possessed WMDs . Worst foreign-policy disaster in U.S. history.
