I must be the director of the FBI, because there’s a bottle of bourbon with my name written all over it.

That's funny because I feel the same way about smart and well-intentioned people falling for a scam being perpetrated by Silicon Valley guys who have done nothing but run scams that made them rich after the tech press told everyone that these guys were geniuses.

Right-wing Canadian men have the same access to the history of what was done to Indigenous children as we do, but many refuse to care. I decided to tell them that history as if the children had been white instead.

The thing about the two douchebag staffers is they know in a normal world they would be so fucking fired for this, but in MAGA world willingness to eat Trump’s ass is the only job qualification, so they are safe. It’s not like Schmitt can replace them with smarter employees.

Under Donald Trump and Kash Patel, FBI agents are far more likely to have their personal data stolen and posted on the internet. But they're now allowed to have sex with farm animals. The administration's defenders say it's net neutral.

This serves as advertisement for Alex Gibney’s documentary, Musk, opening October 9. Pass it on.

The Major Social Media Platforms Are All Rejecting Paid Ads for Alex Gibney’s ‘Musk’ (Exclusive)
YouTube, TikTok and Meta have all turned down the trailer for the Oct. 9 doc, citing “political” content. X won't even take Bleecker Street's calls. The distributor is appealing.

Again worth mentioning that, best I can recall, Goebbels mentioned in his diary that they did not have to give party line directives or actively censor the press. They just invited them to briefings and they dutifully passed whatever the government said along to their readers. Helpful indeed.

i’m so tired of “Trump is doing [evil thing] and nobody cares” posts. He’s doing 1,000 evil things, there is not enough time to complain about each one regularly. Maybe we should all list the top 1,000 evil Trump actions we care about in a thread each morning so the “discourse” remains vital.

Republicans in the Legislature tried to trick voters by referring HCR2048 to the ballot. Disguised as protections for military families, this initiative would have undercut and nullified a voter-led initiative. The court rightfully blocked it from the ballot this morning.
