Having served as a Moscow correspondent in the early days of Putin's reign, this reminds me of how the Kremlin took over its own press pool and made sure that only compliant journalists were given access.

The best way to confront a bully about the misinformation he is spreading is to confront him in front of everyone. Macron just did that.

Blue states take note, especially CA. If the Feds want to withhold disaster aid or try to enforce unconstitutional requirements, keeping back the Federal tax withholding would be the smart play

Pete Hegseth is about to purge military officers—and make no mistake, this is 100% political retribution. 📌 Sec of Defense Pete Hegseth is planning to fire generals and top officers as soon as this week, per two Defense officials and three Congressional sources. Most of them tied to Lloyd Austin.

Elon Musk posted these two tweets the same day, just hours apart. Don’t sugarcoat it — he’s not just a far-right authoritarian, he’s an outright fascist. Musk isn’t even trying to hide his true intentions at this point. STOP MAKING EXCUSES FOR HIM.

This is the moment where you should realize that the Constitution is being collapsed by Musk and Trump. The ABA doesn’t do stuff like this, it’s fundamentally conservative in nature. It’s releasing this statement because if things much further, “law” and “courts” will be useless.
