The kidnapping of Maduro inaugurates a highly dangerous era of U.S. empire that for perhaps the first time in an era of mass media is not pretending to be anything other than a violent, extractive enterprise of domination.
A Criminal Empire
The United States launches a conquest and occupation of Venezuela to extract its oil wealth. The neocon dream is the America First dream

The number of posts that condescend to anyone who happens to read them is amazing.
'Hate to break it to you' 'you didn't see this coming because' etc as opening salvo, not replies? Astonishing. Do you get stabbed on the reg in your day to day? because I think I found the underlying condition.

It is my strong conviction that there is no conviction harsh enough in our current legal systems to be deserved by the degenerates who created Real Politics Gambling.
This person went on a buying spree over the past 24 hours. Fresh wallet. Only existed since Dec 27th and has only bet on Venezuela-related markets.

A functioning Congress will have articles of impeachment drafted by the end of the day.
Our Congress will just go to social media to basically say “We don’t like this, but what are you gonna do?”

The last thing this man sounds like is “cognitively amplified.”
Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella says people should move beyond calling AI 'slop'
"We need to get beyond the arguments of slop vs sophistication and develop a new equilibrium ... that accounts for humans being equipped with these new cognitive amplifier tools as we relate to each other"

Mayor Mamdani hasn't moved into Gracie Mansion yet and remains in his Astoria apartment for now, his team says. He expects to move at some point before his lease is up Jan. 30.
His team also shares this pic of him taking the W train to City Hall this morning from Astoria.

This is a great story, and yet another reminder that -- for something that felt like a fun goofy feature when it launched -- as we lose more and more actors, the AV Club's "Random Roles" has turned out to be an amazing oral history project.

Walked out of MARTY SUPREME and immediately had to blast “Head Over Heels” as loud as possible. Had the movie ended with that instead of “Everybody…” I probably would’ve spontaneously combusted

I made the godawful decision to see a movie at an AMC and am currently witnessing a Capital One ad with John Travolta as a dancing Santa and I am now entitled to compensatory damages of some kind, right?

Keir Starmer was the model for centrists and popularists who insisted that moving right on issues, especially immigration, is how you win at politics.
