I made this chart mapping all the events that facilitated America's decline (I am very fun at parties) about a year ago and never posted it, but I feel like this is what a lot of the 25th anniversary of 9/11 conversation has been circling around... how we really failed in the aftermath.

Ben McKenzie is right: America increasingly feels “winner-take-all.” Power & wealth concentrate at the top, while most feel ignored & left behind. One part of the problem? Winner-take-all elections. The solution: Proportional representation. Deb Otis explains. Stitch ➡️ @samisagesays.bsky.social

Michael Cohen announcing on Lara Trump's show that he's doing a podcast with LAURA LOOMER must be some sort of hazing or humiliation ritual to make him prove he wants back into the Mar-a-Lago crowd badly enough

What's funny about Trump lying about kicking Epstein out of Mar-a-Lago is that Jeffrey Epstein was never actually an official member, he was simply allowed to hang out there without paying for a membership because HIS BEST FRIEND, THE PRESIDENT, IS THE OWNER

It’s long been assumed that Jeffrey Epstein was a Mossad agent… but when Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk announced his government was investigating the Epstein Files, he said Epstein was running a KGB-backed compromise operation. So what explains the decades of Mossad allegations?

Epstein and his pals fixated on fertility, longevity, and ritual because they didn’t just want wealth — they wanted to be untouchable. Living gods. Immune from consequences. @underthedesknews.bsky.social @samisagesays.bsky.social

The ADL becoming politicized and partisan is terrible for Jewish people. I am begging them to please shut the f*ck up because their lack of credibility is undermining the community's legitimate complaints. And it goes without saying Jonathan Greenblatt needs to resign.

After Election Day, there’s still a true failure of imagination. ‬ ‪Especially when it comes to the fact that Trump still can do anything he wants with the most powerful military in the world. ‬ ‪And no mayor or governor has been able to stop him yet. ‬ ‪The new ones likely won’t either. ‬

The thing about Chuck Schumer refusing to endorse Mamdani is how he's doing it in the most pathetic way imaginable. If you just don't want to endorse SAY SO ALREADY and give a reason. If you're not sure, TELL US what you need to know in order to decide. Literally how is this man in charge
