Oh Fuck, I went to college with Myron Ebell and we were both majors in the same small department. I didn't recognize his latent assholery then.
"'We are pretty close to total victory,' said Myron Ebell, who helped the first Trump administration set up its operations at the E.P.A. and has been attacking climate science and policies for nearly three decades." www.nytimes.com/2026/02/09/c...
A Campaign to Revoke the Endangerment Finding Appears Near ‘Total Victory’
A small group of conservative activists has worked for 16 years to stop all government efforts to fight climate change. Their efforts seem poised to pay off.

“But what do you expect Democrats to doo-hooo?”

1) Refuse to fund this criminal government anymore.

2) EVERY one of them call to abolish ICE (and bonus, DHS). No more “they need training” shit. Promise prosecutions.

3) EVERY one of them call for Trump’s impeachment, relentlessly, EVERY day.

What funny movie would make a great comic opera?

Masked ICE agents, it seems, are now killing American citizens on American streets.

Any Democrat who doesn’t support abolishing ICE should be instantly primaried and run out of the party.

This is non negotiable. You cannot support the continued existence of this fascist murderous secret police.

This angle shows Trump’s ICE agent standing on the side of the vehicle and firing into the open window at the driver. This was murder.

Crucial thread
THREAD: I'll fact-check all the viral misinformation about the US military operation in Venezuela in this thread

This image, purporting to show the US military arresting Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro, is AI-generated.

According to Google's SynthID detector, it was created using Google AI.

Propaganda isn't a new phenomenon by any means. While AI isn't creating new problems, it is supercharging old ones. When LLMs are our main source of information but the only information we can access must be approved by the god king, and the god king hates queers, well.

I just found that my daughter, who is 25 but tiny and looks young, has been playing cards for money on her college campus and took so much from the guys they won't let her play any more.
So proud.
