Super low effort merch too
Fairly sure it’s unintentional, but the end date on this mug being sold by the Smithsonian does make it sound a little like they’re saying America dies in 2026…

At this point giving Trump a Nobel would probably be a Nobel worthy move. We've plunged over the irony & shame cliff

Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another Photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.

John Abernathy tosses his camera to another photographer (Pierre Lavie) to prevent its confiscation during the police riots in Minneapolis. Rarely is a photo *of* a photographer pulitzer worthy but this is!

Along with a raft of other amendments which shrink the power of the presidency down to a size such that you could accidentally loose it in the cushions of your couch and it wouldn't be worth the effort to find it.

I think everything you need to know about the ultra rich right wing is that they read LOTR and thought it was Sauron and Saruman who got short shrifted by the narrative and not Sam.

I think the real wake up call to Progressives in the US is that you can just do stuff. All the "unpopular" or "legally grey" things. There are zero consequences to just doing them. So many positive and restorative possibilities for a theoretical future liberal president.

My hot take? This is not true. They count on folks getting used to it and letting it happen quietly. They lash out so quickly because they know how tenuous their hold is. Don't mistake the boldness of fear for grand strategy.
Reminder: This instability has been their goal all along, to justify cracking down even further

Are we just doing Britney Spears' conservatorship, but for a country?
Chris Wright: "We are just controlling the flow of funds into Venezuela so those funds can be used to better the conditions of the Venezuelan people and reduce the risks to the American people of the giant criminal activity coming out of that country. We're not stealing anyone's oil."

We must reduce the presidency to a formality. The office was a mistake. Massive constitutional reforms must start now.

Incredibly frustrating conclusion on this article. Academia is going to make the same mistake it did with Wikipedia. This prof couldn't come up with a way to teach his students to use ai because he refuses to use it himself

What's unique about this particular lie is: not even cognitive dissonance can combat it. Everyone knows it's not true! Everyone buys groceries. Everyone buys stuff from Amazon. We all have to buy stuff just to live, and it's all way more expensive than it was at the beginning of the year
Trump: "If you look at affordability, which they campaigned on, they lied. Because they talked about 'Oh, prices are up' -- no, prices are down under the Trump administration and they're down substantially."
