Is AI the nuclear arms race of the 21st. Century? Can we harness the nuclear power portion but stay away from the nuclear Armageddon part?

I love my candidate for senate in Michigan. Abdul El-Sayed called her out for her framing and focus and didn’t call her ‘piggy’ once!

Condeleeza Rice from today: Those of us in authority on that day did not see the nature of the danger in time to prevent the attack of 9/11. We did what we knew to do, but by definition, it was not enough. This is a complete whitewash of the Bush administration’s failures in the lead up to 9-11.

The Trump administration is fascist to the core. We will need a truth and reconciliation commission to uncover the depth and breadth of their corruption and malfeasance.

Instead of masculinity, Miller is better suited to talking about “MySkinheadity.”

A Harvard study just published estimates Elon Musk's destruction of USAID has already caused 600,000 deaths 2/3 of them children. That is his legacy in this world.

Profound from @democracyprof.bsky.social: When institutions like lower courts resist Trump, it lets the people know that they're not alone, further encouraging displays like the No Kings rallies. On the pod, we dig deep into Trump's fury over encountering resistance: newrepublic.com/article/2085...

Trump just raged at our NATO allies for refusing to help reopen the Strait of Hormuz and bail him out of the fiasco he created. He threatened to withdraw from NATO with childish insults. This is best seen as an admission of serious political weakness. 1/ (new piece) newrepublic.com/article/2080...

Trump Erupts in Fury Over His War Failures—and Exposes a Big Weakness
His rage at NATO is actually an admission that he needs our allies’ help—and that he wants somebody to blame as his war goes from bad to worse.

With institutions in crisis + elites capitulating to Trump's whims, the task of chronicling the admin's abuses is more important than ever. Yet there are ever fewer news organizations capable of doing the job. Becoming a TPM member allows us to do this work: talkingpointsmemo.com/memberships

I suspect Hegseth/Miller think a silent majority will rally to zero-sum nationalism (tariffs), treating all immigrants as criminals, and a kill-first-think-later military posture (what Hegseth calls the “warrior ethic”). It's a big deal that this isn't happening. 6/ newrepublic.com/article/2074...

The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.
