The destruction doesn't make for a photo-op like tearing down the East Wing of the White House or bulldozing the Rose Garden, but it's every bit as bad. Generations of American children learned to spell and count, learned the Preamble to the Constitution, from watching shows produced by the CPB.
The Corporation for Public Broadcasting has been dissolved, ending its 58 years as the primary funder for PBS, NPR and local TV and radio stations

One example of how Grok is being used to target women. Swedish Deputy Prime Minister Ebba Busch being sexualised, degraded, and humiliated step-by-step by Grok. All the images accurately reflect the prompts provided.

Not since Waco, TX has a “law enforcement operation” been botched so badly that it murdered 80+ civilians.
UN Ambassador Michael Waltz: "There is no war against Venezuela or its people. We are not occupying a country. This was a law enforcement operation."

“Involuntarily annexed”
The BBC has been banned from using the word Kidnap to describe the Kidnapping of Maduro.
No doubt when Greenland is invaded they will be banned from using the word invasion.

What in the Gestapo is going on in Grand Rapids?
Watch this activist get arrested *mid-interview* for speaking out against U.S. action in Venezuela.

Paul Singer is a billionaire who has donated millions to Trump-aligned PACs
In NOVEMBER 2025, Singer bought Citgo, the US subsidary of Venezuela's state oil company at a bargain price due to the US embargo
He now stands to benefit from the US takeover
So. Much. Corruption.

I just want to work my shitty job, pay my shitty bills, and squirrel away just enough money for an extra long summer vacation that I’ll be too old to enjoy before I check out of this shitty world.
Thats pretty much all late stage capitalism can offer at this point, and he’s fucking THAT up.

At least Congress isn’t alive anymore to see this.
Trump in a single gaggle on Air Force One just threatened:
-- a second strike against Venezuela
-- Cuba
-- Mexico
-- Colombia
-- Iran
-- Greenland (which in turn would be an attack on the EU and Denmark)

If you'd like to reduce your blood pressure and eliminate a lot of needless in-fighting, I'd recommend muting or blocking Axios, Politico and Semafor as they seem to specialize in promoting quotes from anonymous Democratic contrarians in hopes of generating rage and engagement.

As a parent of a pre-teen and a couple of teenagers, it’s really difficult to explain what “adult behavior” is ✌️supposed✌️ to resemble, when we have infantile morons like this running the country.
Twelve-year-olds in charge of our military. What could go wrong?

Rough vibes on this website today, likely because people feel Hopeless and Helpless Because Can't Stop It and No One Who Is Supposed To Is Trying To So Now We're Fighting Each Other™. I recommend activities such as book, or potentially instrument if you like instrument, or even do talk on phone.

As discussed here previously, the US seems to be gearing up for a strike on Iran.
"Similar increases in C-17 activity at the base were observed ahead of U.S. strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities in June 2025."

Just took a quick spin through Zuckerturd’s platform, and it’s evident (to me at least), that one of the largest consumers of AI slop art are MAGA.
They don’t have the actual artistic ability to draw political cartoons, so they cheat with AI.
Yet another reason AI sucks and should be avoided.

Not just one or two or three but *four* reliable sources told Reuters that Trump's puppet in Venezuela, Delcy Rodríguez—despised by her own people—was in Russia as Trump staged an operation in Caracas to anoint her.
Putin (falsely) denies it.
Alarm bells should be ringing here.
