Trump on María Corina Machado: "I think it'd be very tough for her to be the leader. She doesn't have the support or the respect within the country. She's a very nice woman but she doesn't have the respect."

Why the fuck is Google treating Richard Hanania as a news source?
rubio pretty much believes in a reverse domino theory for latin america and since he is effectively running foreign policy in the region i would expect him to see cuba as his next target
And I don’t want to sound conspiratorial, but if they feel like they can do this in Venezuela without any serious consequences, they’re absolutely going to try it in Cuba too.

overthrowing govs, sending people to detention facilities for torture, cutting taxes for the rich, slashing social spending for the poor, increasing military spending, promoting christian nationalism, demonizing gays, surveilling citizens under "national security." same old GOP.

RIP Dick Cheney, you would have finally found something to like about the Trump presidency (illegally overthrowing a government for oil)
How does launching air strikes and a commando raid fall under the remit of self defense for an arrest operation
The US has launched an unprovoked and illegal attack on Venezuela.

This is a brazen attempt to secure control over Venezuelan natural resources.

It is an act of war that puts the lives of millions of people at risk, and should be condemned by anyone who believes in sovereignty & international law.
2026 could be great. We simply don't know.

That really felt like a game that Arsenal and Mikel Arteta just could not lose.

A special goal to equalise late on, but the way we dominated Man City with that second half performance, with the players we had on the pitch, will be a source of regret.

We should be braver from the start.
One thing the media's reticence to label Kirk an extremist has made jarringly clear is how scared they are of the people in power now who share his extremist beliefs.

In the space of nine months, they have internalized a fear of condemning racism, misogyny, homophobia and antisemiticism.
SCOTUS thought they could ride the tiger and get what they wanted ideologically. In exchange, they would give him everything he wanted except the Fed. Just leave the Fed alone and you can ignore all federal law. But it ended the same way it has for everyone who tried to ride the tiger since 2016.
There’s no longer any pretense this has anything to do with crime (there are cities or parts of cities in SC and Ohio that have higher crime rates than DC — send the troops there!). This is about establishing a precedent for Trump seizing control of the nation’s capital when he wants to.
WASHINGTON (AP) — South Carolina, Ohio also sending National Guard troops to DC in further escalation of federal intervention in Dem city.

Bernie Moreno says Cincinnati might be need to put on a "watch list" and claims he no longer visits Chicago and New York City because he's scared of crime
The only reason this hasn’t also been treated like an alarming constitutional crisis concerning free speech is because people in positions of influence in the media, business, and politics at least tacitly agree with the aims of this movement.
The Ku Klux Klan Acts (passed in 1870 & 1871 to protect 14th amend rights) were a response to masked violent men who terrorized Black communities, violating their civil rights.The deployment of violent masked ICE ofcrs are tapping into this unique form of terror.

The point is this:

Scientists are accused of being partisan. I say embrace it.

We're not lying for political reasons. We are defending science as a way of knowing, and as a humanitarian endeavor to help even those groups that are disenfranchised by people in power. If that's partisan so be it.
In this piece I specifically call out academics happy with the policy changes mandated by the administration

Government coercion can be used in a number of ways - be careful for what you wish for!
READ. THE. SUBHEAD.

Exploitative capitalism underpins racism, and racism gives foundation to exploitative capitalism. It's an ouroboros. That's why Fred Hampton and his Rainbow Coalition and similar such activities are such a threat. Destroying this link means the cycle cannot self sustain.
