The first Russian diesel cargo heading for the US left St Petersburg on September 22, two weeks *before* Trump announced the deal with Putin, Windward reports. The Greek-flagged tanker Minerva Zen carrying 275,000 barrels of diesel/gasoil is due at the US East Coast around 11–12 October.

Why do we keep talking about this and the bunker (disguised as a "ballroom") like it's some funny excess and not actions being taken by the same president who has already used violence to hold onto power before

The only problem with this statement is it supposes Roberts still leads a majority of a 9-seat Court under the next Dem president. If that's the case, that president has already failed. There is no path forward without expanding the Court.

If it seems like we're hostile to AI on Bluesky it's because the worst people on earth are extracting all the money, resources, and air away from basic scholarship and research, and sending it into a dark murmuring void of uncanny madness. It's upsetting.

Fuck! Shot to the chest of higher education doubles as a direct hit to the U.S. economy. International students are the lifeblood to higher ed because they often pay the full cost of tuition so colleges can keep providing aid to those who can't afford tuition.

Hakeem Jeffries doesn't support Medicare for all. I don't agree with him in the slightest on that score, but I'll sure as hell vote for him and any other Democratic candidate this November. We can sort out policy later. Right now, we have to save the republic before we can do anything else.

The government can spend $100 billion on war and put $100 million jets on the USS Abraham Lincoln, but it can’t provide sailors with clean water, decent food, or timely mental health care. They praise the troops in public while treating them as disposable. www.wsws.org/en/articles/...

I know you're not allowed to say this during the current debate, but the reason the left dominates academics, art, comedy, and music is that the right has stupid, discredited ideas, they're not funny, and dull resentment does not make for good art. No grand conspiracy required.

Appropriate air quotes because the most infuriating part about Americans debating "lockdown" is that it simply never happened. Having to pick up your Applebees and eat it on the sectional does not count. There wasn't even a brief moment where "everything" was closed. That's not real.

Korea added ANOTHER 7 years to President Yoon's sentence this week. He's already in for life but there's constantly new trials to set precedent for every single thing he did wrong to be worthy of punishment. Elsewhere, political standards are so lax no one can even check if a dude's dead or not.

Don Moynihan @donmoyn.bsky.social · 03/07/2026
Don't want to speak ill of the dead, so getting this Mitch McConnell take out now. He saw Trump with complete clarity, as a danger to America, but protected him anyway. Perhaps more than anyone, he had the power to end Trumpism, but chose party over country. donmoynihan.substack.com/p/jan-6-and-...
And yet…McConnell refused to vote to convict. Seven of his colleagues did, and with McConnell’s leadership, more would have done so, potentially enough to get to the supermajority needed. With conviction, the Senate could have also taken the vote to block Trump from running again. Doing so would have ended Trump as a political power. McConnell was clearly considering this option. In an oral history interview at the time the House was impeaching Trump, McConnell said

But apparently you can impeach somebody after they leave office, and if that happens, there’s a second vote in the Senate, which only has to pass by a simple majority, that prevents that person from seeking office again. So he could not only be impeached, but also eliminated from the possibility of a comeback for this office. So it is significant.

In the end, McConnell protected Trump from punishment. It was not just the refusal to vote to convict. After a swift House impeachment, he pushed to delay the Senate trial. He opposed the Senate joining in a Congressional investigation of Jan 6. He endorsed Trump in 2024, although this matters little except to further diminish McConnell’s dignity, as it was clear by this point that the Republican Party was Trump’s and McConnell’s time of influence was at an end.
