WATCH: “Some of the things the younger people I talked to at (dying) CPAC were saying was a little scary. Racist. More about Christianity.” @jasonselvig.bsky.social with a warning that echoes what we’ve seen for years. Worth listening to. (From @cwebbonline.com )

The Presidential Records Act isn’t complicated. It was passed after Watergate for a reason & it’s very clear about what belongs to the public & what doesn’t. That’s what makes the new position DOJ is taking so disturbing. I explain here: joycevance.substack.com/p/killing-hi...

This is the person who created a PAC with Manafort’s old PR firm and took money from it. But okay.

This! More states need to create their own agencies independent of the federal government. In times like this we need to focus on long term solutions.

There are so many bots on Bluesky now, it’s insane. The amount of “left leaning” accounts stirring the pot and creating division - I’m starting to wonder if there are any actual human beings on here.

I’ve been seeing a lot of “accounts” posting the same things almost verbatim on countless countries just as the oil and gas markets spiral from the US attacking Iran as the Trump admin manipulates markets for billionaires. It’s almost a coordinated campaign via social media to help drive markets. 🤔

The dead internet theory posits there will be more AI driven bots online than people and we are well on our way as AI has advanced enough to become indistinguishable from humans. They’re spending billions on AI data centers to keep people divided, arguing, and buying. definable.ai/blog/bots-ar...

Maybe “I will raise electricity prices to build machines that ensure your family’s unemployment and brain rot, help target schoolgirls, and lock your country into neofeudalism under techbros” isn’t good politics. It would be great to see more Dems demonstrate some understanding of this.

Thank you! I’ve been disappointed with how many are dismissing everything as incompetence when it’s literally out of the destabilisation playbook. Everything they’re doing is destroying the United States while making billions. It’s serving putin and themselves.

Not particularly shitty, honestly. In France you got a million people protesting you on WORKDAYS for just suggesting that they raise the retirement age with two years. USA is larger, and Trump is almost infinitely more shitty. I don't know why you all aren't protesting every day.

- Car manufacturers cancel their EV programs because of the massive tariff losses. - Trump admin attacks Iran and causes oil crisis. - Oil and gas companies make record profits - Trump admin manipulates markets and republicans make a fortune in insider trading Seems pretty straightforward

One time might be a coincidence. This is now at least three times. Before Venezuela invasion. Before Iran bombing. Before Trump lied about peace talks. That's not a coincidence. It’s not about the Epstein files, it’s insider trading and market manipulation. www.thedailybeast.com/white-house-...

I’m alarmed that people are forgetting the main factor in what’s happening globally: Putin. It’s no coincidence the news has seemingly forgotten Putin’s role in destabilizing global democracy as right wing oligarchs and corporations have taken over the media. “All roads lead to Putin.”

Jon Stewart gives us a little moment of zen as he takes the absolutely deranged behavior of the Sociopath in Chief & entertains us by its absurdity. He coins the perfect phrase for Trump: "The Supreme Misleader." Then, he double checks the definition of the word obliterate in case you don't know.

No kings should be everyday Bob. This half assed, sporadic protesting on a weekend every 4 months or so is pitiful. A general strike is called for….massive no kings protests should be happening everyday. But Americans are good at making excuses for things so I’m sure they won’t do that.

We should use other countries as a template. If this shit was going down in France, there’d be national strikes, bricks through windows, and cop cars on fire. Not advocating violence, but elections and crowds in the street have not saved us. The rest of the world wonders why we haven’t escalated.
