why it's almost like there's a concerted assault on informed consensus by extraction class owned media conglomerates to replace what was left of U.S. political journalism with lazy controversy hounding infotainment and right wing and corporatist agitprop
I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day.
certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.

I want more people to care that SNAP benefits are being cut off on November 1. 40% of SNAP beneficiaries are children. This is callous and vile.

When the Supreme Court struck down Biden's policies, it was tempting to think: "At least these limits on executive authority will bind Trump if he comes back into office." But no—the court's skepticism of executive power vanished on Jan. 20, 2025. This dynamic is obvious to anyone paying attention!

This is 5 alarm fire f*cked. If Trump can weaponize the DOJ to prosecute anyone for any ginned up reason, no one is safe.
He's testing the waters with Comey -- a guy nobody likes. We gotta mount a backlash as if it were Dolly Parton or Baby Yoda he was going after.

Some members undecided. Others voting no or “present.” But some in the party fear anything but a unanimous vote for it will be a messaging coup for the GOP.

The problem with venerating Kirk:
Many hadn't heard of him. They're now encountering isolated interviews and thinking he's not so bad.
Which means they've missed the bulk of his output and it's now necessary to speak ill of the dead to make sure they know how damaging it is to elevate him.

I would suggest this goes the other way too: if you hate Kirk, you should also hate political violence.
Kirk was consumed by the forces that he spent his life encouraging: violence, guns, paranoia, hate.
We reject Kirk & his legacy by condemning the kind of violence he would have laughed at.

Charlie Kirk spent his life‘s work and all of his energy and time targeting out-groups while arguing for a world in which gun massacres would be easy to enact, plentiful, and inevitable, and he became famous and wealthy doing it, and we’re now not supposed to mention that because it’s not polite.

A video arguing that women shouldn’t be able to vote was just shared by Trump’s Secretary of Defense, the guy in charge of our whole military.
And Democratic Party leaders still can’t stand up to this administration?! Our rights are on the line and all our party leaders offer us is silence.

The Rule of Law Is Dead in the US
The rule of law presupposes that there are rules that provide a consistent, repeatable, and knowable set of outcomes. That’s no longer the case.
