It’s fucking insane that Trump is allowed to lie with impunity and no one holds him accountable. Today he claimed there were 97 new car plants under construction. There are not 97 car plants under construction. There are two. Two.

You may have seen a few familiar MAGA faces distance themselves from Trump this past week. Marjorie Taylor Greene. Peter Thiel. Sen. John Kennedy. But hold your applause for now, because their courage just happened to show up when the cost of speaking out got cheap. (link below)

I served in multiple authoritarian states, both communist and otherwise--Russia, Vietnam, Iraq, the Sultanate of Oman, and Ukraine before the Orange Revolution brought in democracy. One common thread among all of them is government spending on propaganda to glorify the dictator/sultan.

HBO acquired the Musk documentary's North American streaming rights in 2023. David Ellison-Paramount is buying HBO's parent company Warner Bros Discovery. The release of the documentary on HBO is scheduled for January 2027. What are the chances that Ellison kills it?

He spends 40 percent of his time at the Mar-a-Lago buffet, 25 percent of his time in his Mar-a-Lago bed surrounded by fried fish fillet sandwiches and Diet Cokes, and the rest of his time sitting on his Mar-a-Lago toilet surrounded by stacks of top-secret documents.
