BARTIROMO: With all due respect, I think the goal here is to stop the drug and human trafficking into America, and I don't think Saudi Arabia is sending fentanyl into America

RAND PAUL: Well, neither does Venezuela

I quibble with the use of word “strength” and prefer nouns like “barbarism” and “brutality”

There is nothing “strong” or “muscular” about the mighty picking on the weak

The fuck is “strong” about attacking Greenland???

one of the most frustrating things about people like Bari Weiss is that deep, burning desire to see them one day realize just *how* bad they are at what they do

and knowing that likely will never happen.
the problem for Bari Weiss isn't that she's not a good journalist (which is true), it's that she's not good at propaganda, which is the whole reason she was hired

she probably gets booted by summertime and replaced by some MMA bro better at agitprop and engagement trolling

Seems like the two-thirds who don’t support the strike are the headline here

www.reuters.com/world/americ...
A third of Americans support US strike on Venezuela, Reuters/Ipsos poll finds
The two-day poll showed 65% of Republicans back the military operation ordered by Trump and 72% worry the U.S. will become too involved in the country.

five days into 2026 and 'Troll State' may already be a top contender for the year's best read of the room
The US has transformed from a (sorta) functioning democracy into a poster regime, a rogue troll state, fueled by internet clout. And the abduction of Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro is likely just the beginning.

ICE is furious because the Hilton cancelled their reservation because of ICE’s immigration enforcement activities.

Wait no. This isn't what we meant to do. Apologies

Siri delete post and also play "Mambo No. 5" by Lou Bega on Bluetooth speakers at maximum volume
Okay we've spent the past couple hours researching how to post again after our holiday hiatus. We think we got it.

Hey Siri, copy and paste link to article about pigs.

it's totally great for us that one of the most powerful, recognizable Democrats looks and acts like the principal in an 80s high school comedy

@zoforaustin.bsky.social i know you value my opinion on these matters and i cosign this.
@zohrankmamdani.bsky.social, could you please establish an official NYC Mayor account on Bluesky and post everything your office is currently posting on X over here?

And please remove all city accounts from X, which has become a CSAM creation and distribution site?

No money for Musk, ever, please.

Without exaggeration, Patrick changed my life, and for the better, when he acquired Old Man's War for Tor. So much of what is good in my life now flows from that, and I'm forever grateful for it. I hope his retirement is fantastic. I've written more on my site:

whatever.scalzi.com/2026/01/05/p...
News of me: I’m retiring. I’m 67 years old and I’ve worked full-time at Tor Books for 37 of those years. Today, January 5, is my official last day. This has been in train for several months, and while it hasn’t been a secret for some time, I haven’t mentioned it on social media until now. (1/3)

Elon Musk chatbot repeatedly making CSAM on demand should be one of the single biggest stories right now and it's effectively a collective shrug instead
