i think the media should report on the extremist ties of the VP
“The infighting [over welcoming open Nazis into the GOP tent] is stupid,” writes Vice President Vance, which makes sense only if he thinks any Republicans objecting to said Nazi-welcoming should shut up.
doing a Straussian reading of this post, especially point 3, and it's fairly obvious that Vance is aligned with the Tucker Carlson-wing of the GOP and thinks further right groups should be part of the tent, but won't outright break with Trump's I/P policy while he's still VP

American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.

WTF?!? Two panels of black Americans who helped liberate the Netherlands at the American Cemetery in Margraten were removed without explanation.
Op Margraten zijn twee panelen over zwarte Amerikaanse bevrijders van Nederland opeens weg. ‘Past bij beleid van de regering-Trump’

Op de Amerikaanse begraafplaats in Margraten is het opeens stil geworden rond de zwarte Amerikanen die hielpen Nederland bevrijden. Twee panelen die hun bijdrage herdachten – én wezen op hun strijd tegen racisme binnen het leger – werden zonder toelichting verwijderd.

As a newsroom, we don’t believe in just reporting on the suffering we see around us; we want to use the info & tools at our disposal to ease it whenever we can. Amidst the federal shutdown and the SNAP crisis, we’ve seen many of our neighbors are facing growing hunger.

Don’t let information be a barrier to supporting your families, your neighbors, your community. Everyone in our region deserves to eat. Plz boost this far and wide!
That’s why we partnered with local orgs Waters Meet and Spokane Community Against Racism to create spokane.food, an interactive map of places to get support for food insecurity, or give support, if you’re in a place to help.
How to get or give help during the SNAP shutdown across the Inland Northwest – RANGE Media
Our community is facing a food crisis. We created a comprehensive map of all the resources in our region, so you can find the nearest food pantries, community organizations and restaurants offering free food closest to you.

Critical insight here. Social media-led homogenization of thought has led pundits to think you need a one-size-fits-all approach to campaigns. WRONG, we were collectively reminded Tuesday.

This might not be one of my more popular takes but I strongly blame the Cheneys as among the reasons why we never got a proper reckoning after January 6. Allow me to explain.

every institution has to choose whether it's going to operate in a fantasy world where everything's mostly normal, or call things what they are.
The hallmarks of authoritarianism are on full display in the US right now. Recognizing them—and sharing this knowledge with others—is step one for any successful effort to counter what’s happening.
What Authoritarian Regimes Do

I tell you what, though: I've come to have a very basic problem with the formulation "if liberal government doesn't do XYZ, fascism rises." This to me reflects one of the deepest & most enduring blind spots among the broad left coalition, namely ... they don't believe in the right.

When I say the MAGA movement is post-truth, this is the sort of thing I mean. Push blatant lies in advance of an event, see overwhelming evidence that the lies were false, know that others saw it too, but plow ahead with the same lies, opposed to the notion that living in factual reality matters.
Mike Johnson calls No Kings the "Hate America Rally" and claims "it was funded by George Soros and co-sponsored by the Communist Party and many other nefarious groups"

the actual story here, which the media never talks about, is that police in this country have become a discrete right-wing political operation. the story isn't about cops leaving (they're lying about that), it's about the police trying to exert influence over elections.

A miracle they’re still alive. Elated for their families. Can’t help but think of all the hostages who would have also come home two years ago had Netanyahu chosen his own people over his thirst for war.
Hamas has released all 20 remaining living hostages.
The Israeli military says it has taken custody of them and will transport them onward to Israel. Follow AP's live updates.

No institutional design can overcome a lawbreaking president, a Congress defending lawbreaking and forfeiting its own power, a Supreme Court that pretends legal text doesn’t count to facilitate lawbreaking, and a citizenry that votes for all that.
