When @dfriedman.bsky.social discovered a Goodreads page tied to the email of a top Pentagon official featuring books on “Asian wife sharing” and other pornographic works, he did what any reporter would do: ask the Pentagon questions.
The next day, a threatening email from Jack Posobiec arrived.

I asked the Pentagon about Pete Hegseth's mentor. Then the threats started.
Journalism in the second Trump administration gets personal.

It's weird that the pro alpha masculinity (or whatever)people have reduced masculinity to superficial aesthetic traits. Basically just be a muscled bag of semen. And that is very appealing to people who have nothing to offer the world at all.

So you admit that Anne Frank being white made her life easier than if she was Black. That's called WHITE PRIVILEGE.
Stop whitesplaining.

At what point did I ever say she would have had an easier time if she was black? I don't imagine it would be.
I'm saying she did not escape from Nazi occupation of the Netherlands.
For the record both Jewish and Black people were still able to leave Germany in 1934 when her family did.

I remember when starting my urban planning masters, and everyone was talking about their backgrounds before the program, like 95% of us had a negative experience working for a nonprofit
something I think is underdiscussed about employment/capitalism discourse is that abusive/bad labor/management practices are probably more common in nonprofits and trendy organizations that people on the left are likely to work for than big boring office companies

The most infuriating part about the NYT is that on occasion they do some of the best reporting you’ve ever seen and you remember that how god damn shitty they are the other 99% of the time is entirely by choice
Not only excellent reporting, this is the clearest and most plainly stated article I've seen in the mainstream media so far, mincing no words and pointing out every single one of the Trump admin's canards and misdirections.
As one of the quoted experts says, it's murder, full stop.

Trump is viewed as a messianic figure for the right because it very much appeared that they would have to make peace with losing on every single social issue.
Leftists think that no leftward progress has been made in the past few decades so they're blind to how APOCALYPTIC the last few decades have been for the right.
This is why leftist analysis of the right fails. They attribute everything to "economic anxiety" instead of bigots seeing their world end.

This is the crux of the bargain white ppl made voting for trump & the gop. "Rid us of brown ppl & make white ppl the majority again & we will sacrifice our jobs, savings, homes, and even children." They 💯 factored in those losses & decided it was worth it. That's why nothing else he does matters

“We didn’t commit a crime but here’s our fall guy anyways”
REPORTER: Does the administration deny that that second strike happened, or did it happen and the administration denies that Hegseth gave the order?
LEAVITT: The latter. Secretary Hegseth authorized Admiral Bradley to conduct these kinetic strikes. He worked well within his authority and the law.

This mailer being sent out in #NY17 is WILD.
All of the wording about Mike Lawler is technically accurate, but hoo-boy the design choices here are something to behold.
Definitely zoom in and read for yourself.

IMO the way to square the circle of “the economy is actually really good by so many metrics and America really is a rich country” and “the American economy has deep structural issues which people are lashing out against” is to focus less on affordability and more on opportunity and mobility
I know “the world’s richest country is very rich and material life there is good” is a really boring take and doesn’t leave a lot of toeholds for mass populist revolt, but it is, broadly, pretty true

Funny for this discussion to be happening right after I watched Barry Lyndon, which is a movie about how revenge/honor killings and dueling are good actually.
Revenge/physical combat was how people settled things for literally millions of years, it's normal human behavior, we're wolves not sheep, the government project trying to social engineer us and domesticate us into sheep has been unsuccessful
