Meet project "Good Old USA" the now unsealed DoJ file on the Russian influence in the US to sway opinion on the war in Ukraine.

Something Trump has bought into hook-line and sinker.

It was held under seal, because we got the literal playbook revealing their methods

Vielleicht sollte sich alle Parteien der Mitte das Ding mit dem Sondervermögen (und mehr als 200 Milliarden) in den nächsten Wochen jetzt nochmal überlegen.

I do hope that nobody in Europe will talk to the racist extremist JD Vance after his disgraceful shows in Munich and today with Zelensky.
Europe does not need Nazist connections.

Man sollte eines bei der Ausbreitung des Faschismus nie unterschätzen: die Macht des Opportunismus. Sie kommt der Macht der Dummheit gleich und ist die passive Variante moralischer Verkommenheit.

The media called Musk's salute, which Neo Nazis celebrated, a "hand gesture."

Why won't they acknowledge exactly what we all saw here?

As someone who worked in national newsrooms for years, let me explain why the media is allergic to meeting the moment in times like this.

To the crowds cheering Trump's withdrawal from the Paris Agreement:
Do you think you live on a different planet, which climate breakdown does not affect?
Do you imagine only greens and progressives will be harmed by Earth systems collapse?
Do you believe you can win an argument with physics?

Historian of fascism here. It was a Nazi salute and a very belligerent one too.

"Elon Musk is supporting a far-right party suspected of extremism by Germany’s own courts & intelligence officials; a party too extreme even for Marine Le Pen; a party filled with people who meet with, defend, & quote Nazis."

My latest, with receipts on the AfD that Musk doesn't want you to see:

My latest.

I wanted to take today off but I think more Americans need to know this before it's forgotten by tomorrow.

"Elon Musk and JD Vance's Support of Germany's Nazi-Loving AfD Party Should Be Much Bigger News"

Elon Musk and JD Vance's Support of Germany's Nazi-Loving AfD Party Should Be Much Bigger News
Elon Musk & J.D. Vance tweeted in support of the AfD Party whose racist, anti-immigrant ideologies are shared by a terrorist who just killed 5 people in Germany. Maybe it's not "economic anxiety."

Last week the Russian Central Bank sold 1 trillion in bonds to the banks in order to raise money to cover the 2024 government deficit.

The banks lacked liquidity to buy, so now the CB is lending the banks money to buy its own bonds.

All while using the same bonds as collateral for the loan.

I wrote this piece a little over a year ago, analyzing the purpose of Trump’s attacks on the military. I noted that subverting the armed forces from the inside out would require undermining (or eliminating) its diversity, professionalization, and loyalty open.substack.com/pub/asharang...

I expected to wake up exhausted, despondent. but I looked up and for the first time in my life I thought, "there's no one left to look to. it's just us."

so I am shocked at how I feel: furious, clear-eyed, galvanized. we who saw this from the beginning, for better or worse, it's our time to lead.

Hi!

If you’re on Bluesky or new to 🦋, do yourself a favor and follow smart women!

And when people post starter packs that are 90% male experts or their declaratory letters signed by 100 experts of which 6 are women, make faces at them, any faces 🤪🤬🤯☹️ because y’all we are here for a reason.
