Last night’s lavish White House dinner showed us the global oligarchy coming together in plain sight.

By cozying up to MBS, Trump has signaled to the world that the United States is now on the side of authoritarianism, not democracy.

"things happen"
Trump suggests Khashoggi had it coming: "You're mentioning someone that was extremely controversial. A lot of people didn't like that gentleman that you're talking about. Whether you like him or didn't like him, things happen. But he knew nothing about it. You don't have to embarrass our guest."

I used to think it could never get worse than Bush/Cheney. Does this mean it can worse than Trump/Vance? Brace yourselves for Barron Trump and the fortune he's going to inherit. Taxing the rich is a matter of national security and sovereignty.

Thank you to the more than 700 students who joined me and the “Godfather of AI,” Nobel Prize winner Dr. Geoffrey Hinton, at the Georgetown Institute of Politics and Public Service.

We must ask ourselves: Will AI benefit all of us? Or just the billionaires?

It’s the question.
ABC’S MARY BRUCE: “Why wait for Congress? Why not just release the files?”

TRUMP: “It’s not the question, it’s your attitude. I think you’re a terrible reporter.”

Apart from being obviously awful you can see from the flash of anger on his face that he is feeling *completely* out of control about this situation. Reminds me of the interview he bailed on in the ESPN 30 for 30, “Who Killed the USFL,” when he was confronted on his failures by a reporter

Very alarmed to see that Bluesky suspended Sarah Kendzior for spurious and dishonest reasons. It does not bode well for this platform, which I find very disappointing. You can read about what Sarah experienced here. What’s this about @jay.bsky.team?!

America's network of democratic alliances was a jewel. Never before had a great power relied on cultivating voluntary relationships, leading to the richest, most powerful country in history, and benefitting the world relative to the alternative.

Then America decided to throw it away. And for what?

An AIPAC stooge has launched a campaign against Kat.

Not a fucking dime to that dude.
Yesterday, I pleaded not guilty to the charges that Trump’s DOJ has hit me with in federal court.

This administration is targeting me because they can see that I’ve spoken out against them and will continue to stand up to them.

Als Oekraïne het nieuws haalt, dan is dat vaak door een gekke uitspraak van Trump. Dan gaat het over Trump. Maar juist de gewone Oekraïners in bezet gebied verdienen onze aandacht. Die moeten al 3,5 jaar onder een schrikbewind leven.

3 years ago today, the armed forces of Ukraine liberated Kherson.

Ever since, Russia has done everything in its power to make the city uninhabitable.

From across the river, they relentlessly bombard Kherson with glide bombs, artillery, and drones.
