Hey media - Referring self-described misogynist pimp and child pornographer Andrew Tate a "social media influencer" is like referring to Ed Gehn a "BBQ aficionado".

Derrick Van Orden is so drunk in this video, I had to ask my AA sponsor if me watching it is considered a relapse.

Meantime, the vast cosmos doesn't care. Two galaxies are in the process of merging, moving back and forth through each other over the course of hundreds of millions of years, reforming a new galaxy by expelling thousands (millions?) of their stars into the void.

Just one more reason I no longer consider myself a Democrat. Why are so many people (especially the young) disengaged from politics, don't vote? One party is authoritarian, and the other doesn't have the guts to support what's right.

I know it bothers you as much as it does me that journalism as an institution can’t process that what it’s seeing on a daily basis is evil people doing evil sh*t Not incompetence, not naivete, not negligence, not mispeaking, not mixups, not miscommunications: straight-up evil people doing evil sh*t

Susan Crawford needs to run the ad: “This election is a choice between Wisconsin values and the values of Elon Musk - the billionaire who’s trying to take away Social Security and the VA.”

As vice chair of the County Board of a fairly rural Wisconsin county with a population of 40,000, I would never conduct county business by 3rd party text app. It’s not secure and potentially illegal. That is all.

During Trump I, I was invited to the White House along with othe WI local electeds. The people who talked to us - mostly agency undersecretaries - reminded me of my worst most entitled C+ students after 15 years of falling up. Dunning -Kruger at its worst. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

AUSA Hagan Scotten, former clerk for John Roberts, really put some mustard on his resignation letter.

BY EMAIL
Re: United States v. Eric Adams, 24 Cr. 556 (DEH)
Mr. Bove,
I have received correspondence indicating that I refused your order to move to dismiss the indictment against Eric Adams without prejudice, subject to certain conditions, including the express possibility of reinstatement of the indictment. That is not exactly correct. The U.S.
Attorney, Danielle R. Sassoon, never asked me to file such a motion, and I therefore never had an opportunity to refuse. But I am entirely in agreement with her decision not to do so, for the reasons stated in her February 12, 2025 letter to the Attorney General.
In short, the first justification for the motion-that Damian Williams's role in the case somehow tainted a valid indictment supported by ample evidence, and pursued under four different U.S. attorneys is so weak as to be transparently pretextual. The second justification is worse.
No system of ordered liberty can allow the Government to use the carrot of dismissing charges, or the stick of threatening to bring them again, to induce an elected official to support its policy objectives.
There is a tradition in public service of resigning in a last-ditch effort to head off a serious mistake. Some will view the mistake you are committing here in the light of their generally negative views of the new Administration. I do not share those views. I can even understand how a Chief Executive whose background is in business and politics might see the contemplated dismissal-with-leverage as a good, if distasteful, deal. But any assistant U.S. attorney would know much i i red oril, in this ily. wing the perset arthro he Reside is ving to,
give him that advice, then I expect you will eventually find someone who is enough of a fool, or enough of a coward, to file your motion. But it was never going to be me.
Please consider this my resignation. It has been an honor to serve as a prosecutor in the
Southern District of New York.
Yours truly,
Hagan Scotten
Assistant United States Att…

The DOGGY team left their government website open, with no security, so that ANYONE could edit it. These people have access to EVERYTHING the government has, including payments to foreign contacts (i.e. spies) and your Social Security info. arstechnica.com/tech-policy/...

DOGE’s .gov site lampooned as coders quickly realize it can be edited by anyone

In the Soviet Bloc, the Communist Party assigned political minders/ commissars to every school, factory, army unit, etc to ensure ideological compliance and loyalty to the regime. Hiring was based on class background and demonstrated loyalty. Obviously, this is very different.

In all seriousness I don’t know if the other Dogers tweeted a lot about eugenics but just a passing review makes clear they all identify as very feral edgelords so I suspect they’re all just a day of wayback machine research from getting bounced.

Elon Musk's takeover of the federal government's financial offices is an unconstitutional usurpation of power. This unelected Nazi-saluting foreign oligarch and his fellow travelers now have the power to halt any payments they don't like. /1
