Avid reader, cat lover, Trump hater. Want to live long enough to piss on his grave.
If your political party requires you to defend the brutal murder of a young woman, you really should rethink your life choices.

A 6-year-old just lost his mother. A woman was shot in the face in front of her wife.
The swift, lockstep attempt to dehumanize and villainize Renee Nicole Good might be the most depraved thing we've seen yet from these ghouls and their supporters. These people are utterly fucking dead inside.

I've watched thousands of videos from the Jan. 6 riot as part of NPR's reporting and archive project on that day.
Here are some of the lesser known videos that have really stuck with me.

The previous modern standard for murdering people en masse while effecting an arrest warrant involved members of a Waco religious cult (76), or group home occupants (11) in West Philadelphia or the Chicago abode of some Blank Panthers (2 dead, more wounded). Trump now holds the record.
in how many "law enforcement operations" are damn near 100 people killed?

There's a lot I dislike about this guy, but if Hair Furor's fragile ego needs to give him a platform like this to kick that big fat orange ass around, I'm fine with it.
Four generations of my family have served our country. Service is in my blood. The President wouldn’t know anything about that.

It's a sad situation when foreign leaders across the political spectrum can denounce Trump's unlawful action in clearer and harsher terms than the supposed leaders of the so-called opposition party in Congress. Schumer and Jeffries are worthless.

A lot of the coverage of Mamdani is predicated on the idea that socialism is necessarily an economic system of mass impoverishment, and this is by design: the very wealthy want people to imagine that any system where the rich end up less well off will lead everyone else to be poorer too.
If Zohran Mamdani was really a socialist he would wear a potato sack and only eat cold cans of beans. Let me know when Mr. Mayor is serious about the movement.

There's a lot to hate about POLITICO—especially its cynical horse-race coverage that completely skirts questions of truth. But they do excel at getting insiders to go on the record, and they can sometimes produce in-depth reports about political boondoggles. Like this one. Well worth a read.

The subtext here – although the Wall Street Journal buries the lede – is that Mar-a-Lago was using its spa in the late 1990s and early 2000s to traffic teenage girls to Jeffrey Epstein. Even Trump‘s wife at the time, Marla Maples, knew there was something wrong with the arrangement.
Exclusive | The Incident That Prompted Trump to Ban Epstein From Mar-a-Lago’s Spa
Mar-a-Lago sent an 18-year-old spa worker on a house call to Jeffrey Epstein in 2003. She complained to her bosses that Epstein pressured her for sex.

Since 1975, $79 trillion in wealth has been redistributed from the bottom 90% to the top 1% — a 1% that now owns more wealth than the bottom 93%.
We can respect innovation & entrepreneurship, but we cannot respect the extraordinary greed that now exists.
We need a wealth tax.
