New from me for @maargentino.com's blog: A fringe sect of Jewish nationalists are adopting neo-Nazism into their interpretations of Jewish & Israeli nationalism, despite incoherant & contradictictory beliefs.

One end result is a small but extremely cursed ecosystem of Jewish accelerationist memes.
Todays blog post at From The Depths is from @dancollen.bsky.social

I have confirmed the gist of this report out of federal court in Minnesota today from a source familiar.

If you have more information about the District of Minnesota—either the court or the U.S. Attorney's Office—and how they are handling all of this, please reach out. I am at crg.32 on Signal.

The former director of Project 2025 has positioned himself squarely in lockstep with the Tucker Carlson, Nick Fuentes wing of MAGA. A sign of the times

To be clear: I don't think there was any collusion. Moot had no love for the pol crowd and the nazis had already infested the site before pol. But the sheer coincidence is enough to give me a migraine.

Quite the contrast:

In one part of the Epstein files, DOJ published unredacted nude images of women and potentially minors.

In another part, officials redacted President Trump’s face from a news image that was shared in a text exchange.

I spoke with Annie Farmer, one of the Epstein survivors who has advocated for transparency. She was distressed by the failed redactions:

“It’s hard to imagine a more egregious way of not protecting victims than having full nude images of them available for the world to download”

NEW: The Justice Department published dozens of unredacted images of nude women (and possibly teens) as part of its Epstein release.

The faces of those people were also left unredacted.

This is, without a doubt, the most blatantly incorrect thing I have ever seen written in Jacobin; and they falsely published an obituary on Noam Chomsky.

Odd how when people like Bari Weiss go on about 'merit-based hiring', what they mean is hiring nice-looking white boys from elite schools regardless of their experience.

Seems like a bad sign for the general competency level of federal law enforcement that the FBI director spends his time scouring the feeds of random MAGA influencers and launching investigations based on their posts. www.mediamatters.org/benny-johnso...

I patiently explain to the Secretary of General of NATO that leashes are Republican coded but dog girls are Democrat coded but only if they're trans as he nods and writes down "ASK FRANCE FOR MORE NUKES" in his notepad.
"Unleash" is a very Republican-coded word in American politics

When does Carlson finally rip the Holocaust debate bandaid off? And when he does, will he start on the denial side and make his way to the pro-Holocaust side, or just jump to justifying it?

Surely it can't be long now.
Essential, by @shaneburley.bsky.social on Carlson hosting another white nationalist.

Fuentes was really only one of may antisemites invited on the show.

Unfortunately, Carlson has done a good job of making it seem he’s more moderate than he is. But his views aren’t much different than Fuentes’s.

Wrote a lil thing about that weird ICE post with a weirder song attached. Many thanks to all the people who helped move this along. This blog post is the tip of the iceberg, but hopefully helps to provide a really brief overview of why ICE/DHS posting a fashy song is worrying.

Trump’s federal agencies love putting catchy songs alongside their content on social media. While they usually post pop songs, phonk edits, or whatever viral sound is hitting on TikTok six months prio...

another great list of places where your donation will be put to good use. it's sorted by type - you can find something you feel good about! support an organization, buy food, buy diapers, help people with rent, find a family's gofundme that speaks to your heart... lots of ways to help.

i found some great places to donate using the list put together by @ziibiing.com

don't give your money to consultants for some vague promise, give it to people who will go out right now, today, and buy a car full of groceries for a family that's too afraid to leave their home.
