25th Amendment? We can’t even get network news to air it or even mention it. It’s a massive national media coverup to hide the fact the we have an addled president.

Glad to see the news media standing in unison against Trump and for the First Amendment. But they have a lot more work to do…

If you're unsure the shooting at the WHCD dinner was fake & staged, go recheck the faces of Congress members during the Jan. 6 assault on the Capitol: you see shock, fear & horror, an unstaged, spontaneous reaction. Instead, last night cabinet were laughing afterwards. Totally fake. They all knew.

Local TV leads its Iran coverage by saying the "deal" includes "reopening" the Strait of Hormuz, but then adds that Iran will manage the Strait and charge fees. So, the Strait is *less* accessible than before the war. Media outlets don't need to accept the administration's framing of this ceasefire.

I'm expecting a wheelbarrow-full of pardons for insider trading on January 19, 2029. Note that the prospect of those pardons helps to keep subordinates in line. Corrupt-cop style, make sure that lots of people get a little taste, then make clear that the pardon depends on continued loyalty.

So true, even using AI for research is dangerous because you can't know if it's hallucinating the data, and the only way to be sure is to double check everything, in which case, why bother? You might as well do the research yourself. AI's destiny is to make videos of cats playing banjos.

Quite true, and it's done in other countries, for instance in Germany there are labor representatives on corporate boards. That's one reason Germany didn't go so far in oursourcing jobs to China.

the fact the president of the united states is even thinking about asserting emergency powers to disrupt an election - just a few years after he incited an armed coup attempt - should be the top issue. but the media mostly shrugs and the opposition doesnt focus on it.

The release today of millions of pages of Epstein files put the arrest of Don Lemon, the FBI raid on Atlanta's Board of Elections & maybe even investigating civil rights charges in the Alex Pretti murder into context: drive the files off the front pages. With Trump everything is about Epstein.

After being held in two of them as a boy, I fought for decades urging America to never again build concentration camps and put human beings in them. It breaks my heart to watch this happen twice now in my own lifetime.
Screenshot of an X.com post by The Associated Press (@AP) stating that dozens of immigrant families protested for better treatment behind fences at a Texas detention facility, where a 5-year-old Ecuadorian boy and his father were sent after being detained in Minnesota. Below is a video thumbnail showing a crowd gathered outdoors along a fenced walkway; many people wear bright blue or red outerwear, and some hold signs.

ICE & CBP agents now supposedly fear ostracism. If only! Many will be going to jail for years & maybe the rest of their lives. For instance, how many ICE & CBP managers had to be involved in moving those murderers out of town? All are guilty of harboring fugitives from justice. That's a major crime.

Minnesota National Guard members have arrived at a federal building and were directed to distribute donuts, coffee, and hot chocolate to anti-ICE protesters. Guard members were issued reflective vests so they would not be mistaken for federal agents.

it is actually kind of bananas how unitary executive theorists have taken a straightforward clause requiring the president to "faithfully execute the laws" and transformed it into a grant for the exercise of limitless unenumerated power.

This is from Autocracy, Inc, about how modern autocratic propaganda works. I consider this every time I decide what to share and how to frame it.
Many of the propagandists of Autocracy, Inc., have learned from the mistakes of the twentieth century. They don’t offer their fellow citizens a vision of utopia, and they don’t inspire them to build a better world. Instead, they teach people to be cynical and passive, because there is no better world to build. Their goal is to persuade people to mind their own business, stay out of politics, and never hope for a democratic alternative: Our state may be corrupt, but everyone else is corrupt too. You may not like our leader, but the others are worse. You may not like our society, but at least we are strong and the democratic world is weak, degenerate, divided, dying.
