When @dfriedman.bsky.social discovered a Goodreads page tied to the email of a top Pentagon official featuring “Asian wife sharing” books and other pornographic works, he did what any reporter would do: ask the Pentagon questions.

The very next day, a threatening email from Jack Posobiec arrived.
I asked the Pentagon about Pete Hegseth's mentor. Then the threats started.
Journalism in the second Trump administration gets personal.

ICYMI — “I identified myself as a U.S. citizen and a veteran, but that didn't matter. ICE Agents smashed my window, sprayed tear gas and pepper spray into my car, dragged me out… this experience violated the very principles I fought to defend.”

Thinking of that time when my dad, himself a doctor, was thrown by a horse on a trail ride. Punctured his spleen, internal bleeding, got him to an ER just in time. He lived another 20 years. With two hours delay, probably wouldn't have.

We rushed to *nearest* ER. Not comparison-shop for ER prices.
Roger Marshall: "We want patients to become consumers again. We want patients to see what the actual prices are. We believe that if we would add the price tags to this bill, that it would save the country a trillion dollars a year."

As we move towards taxpayer funded Christian charter schools, Fascinating to watch @GovBillLee pretend steering public dollars to openly religious schools with vouchers/charters hasn’t been his #1 goal all along.

(He slips up and admits charters aren’t really public here 😬)

Here at Head Start, we offer a divers— um, a wide array of lessons from dedicated men and wom— dedicated male and fe— er, from guys and gals devoted to education, able to help all students, including any with learning disabil— uh challenges.
According to a new court filing, the Trump administration has a six-page list of banned words that Head Start locations are forbidden from using when describing their programs.
Among the censored words: "disability," "race," "women," "trauma," "Gulf of Mexico." Short thread with the full list. 🧵

ARKANSAS FARMER🧑‍🌾 : “Trump’s $12 billion bailout is a far cry from what we need. Just the loss in corn this year was over $16 billion. The loss in soybeans around $11 billion. Cotton & rice even bigger losses. $12 billion won’t make up for this 1 year.”

Last night’s “affordability” rally was a gift to the Democrats. Trump championed austerity and said tariffs are making farmers rich. Midterm ads will replay it nonstop. You will not find a single farmer who says they got rich from his tariff policy.

NYC is a union town. I am proud to stand with the over 200 Amazon drivers at the DBK1 facility in Woodside who joined the Teamsters and are fighting for the pay and benefits they deserve. Amazon must recognize their union and start bargaining for a fair contract now.

I’ve been through a lot worse than anything Donald Trump or Pete Hegseth can throw at me. And I'm not backing down, because this isn't about me — it's about you and every American's First Amendment right.

It's kind of sweet that the oldsters like "mature." I wouldn't have predicted that would feed their fantasies.
