It's crazy that, as an extremism reporter, I'm sharing a story about federal aviation safety mainly for the purpose of counteracting disinformation put out by a U.S. president. www.nytimes.com/2025/01/31/b...

Clues From D.C. Plane Crash Suggest Multiple Failures in Aviation Safety
Clues emerging from the moments before an Army helicopter collided with a passenger jet suggest breakdowns in the system meant to help aircraft land safely at the busy Reagan National Airport.

we have a president with a tenuous grip on small legislative majorities who is out of the gate with a flurry of dramatically unpopular orders and who has just demonstrated his weakness on the international stage. if i were an elected member of his domestic opposition, i might try to draw real blood.

Doing well, thank you. Nose down writing scripts and editing on our series. Going to try to punk rock my way through this thing with resistance art. It’s what ‘ol Joe Strummer would do.😉 Hope you and your family are good. Would love to hook up soon for coffee or a beer. I could head your way.

So let’s see, Trump has been President for a week and now we are fighting with Canada, Greenland, Mexico, Denmark, Panama, Colombia, and pretty much the entire EU. It does seem that Viktor Orban and Netanyahu now likes us more though, so there’s that.

This is the stuff they feed the cult to keep them from noticing that the only reason why they wanted power was to stay out of prison, have immunity from prosecution, then use the levers of power to enrich themselves exponentially faster than any group of people in human history.

Wondering if there's much of a freelance market in ghostwriting manifestos, most of which seem to be either grossly overwritten or tersely underdeveloped and generally unprofessional. Given the political tenor of these times, it seems like it could be growing sector for the ink-stained among us.

finally a reasonable take
Liberals and the left do not need the right to
be online in the way that the right needs
liberals and the left. The nature of reactionary
politics demands constant confrontations-
literal reactions- to the left. People like Rufo
would have a substantially harder time trying
to influence opinions on a platform without
liberals. "Triggering the libs" sounds like a
joke, but it is often essential for segments of
the right. This explains the popularity of some
X accounts with millions of followers, such as
Libs of TikTok, whose purpose is to troll
liberals.
The more liberals leave X, the less value it
offers to the right, both in terms of cultural
relevance and in opportunities for trolling.

Racism and horrid, inhumane conditions so intolerable that men incarcerated at Red Onion Prison in Wise, Virginia are setting themselves on fire in desperate attempts to get transferred. “Not protests, but acts of desperation hoping to get out of an insufferable situation.” 1/4

Red Onion and its sister supermax Wallens Ridge State Prison are both located in the mountains of the far southwestern corner of Virginia in rural, segregated white communities, while their prisoner populations are near totally Brown and Black.
