This is psychosis. The president of the United States is psychotic. Is the media going to start talking about this, or continue to normalize it?

This coin is illegal. The laws of our Congress specifically ban coinage depicting a living president (31 U.S. Code § 5112). What better metaphor could there be for the numb shattering of our constitutional order, than a $1 coin being sold to the American people for $10?

President Donald Trump pledged to send every American adult $5,000 if Republicans retain control of the House and Senate in the midterm elections. The promise, made at the GOP's midterm convention in Dallas, could cost over $1 trillion and would require congressional approval.

The UK government ceasing automatically to support almost anything the government of Israel does is a major shift. The next step should be to rescind the ban on #PalestineAction, to stop treating protesters as terrorists, and to acknowledge that those seeking to disrupt a genocide may have a point.

Gas went up under Biden because Russia invaded Ukraine in 2022. Then they gradually went down in 2023/2024. Gas then went back up because Trump started a war of choice with Iran that he’s losing after being persuaded by Netanyahu and Hegseth. Blaming Biden right now is absurd.

Trump could have made the ceremony with 9/11 first responders today about the many heroes who died attempting to rescue people and others who risked their lives & long term health. But instead, he created a fictitious event featuring himself, who did nothing, as the hero of 9/11.

And as with Jason Arday, you can see the problem here. Because a handful of gatekeepers decide what is ‘news’ & what isn’t. This is a stunning investigation but if & how it catches fire depends on the follow-up…& Times & Telegraph are embarrassed & implicated. So much now depends on the BBC…

Coyote vs. Acme is not only hilarious and a delight to behold, it also nails its emotional beats harder than basically any grown-up fare you’ve seen this year? Trying to vault this as a tax write-off has to be one of the more anti-art decisions from an entertainment exec this century
