I would posit that 9/11 was the beginning of the American apocalypse, and I believe we are fast approaching the opposite bookend when all will be revealed.

We can be morally outraged by an assassination and at the same time acknowledge that Charlie Kirk’s racism and misogyny were immoral. Whitewashing his behavior and beliefs betrays the collective by masking how we got to this place in America.
Let’s Not Forget Who Charlie Kirk Really Was
The right-wing influencer did not deserve to die, and we shouldn’t forget the many despicable things he said and did.

Everything about this is wrong. Most people with autism have jobs. Use toilets. Pay taxes. And Speak more clearly than this gravel-throated man.

The President of the United States is utterly out of control and possibly out of his mind, and only the Supreme Court of the United States can deliver the absolutely vicious permanent slapdown this moment requires.
If that does not happen, the options for Americans appear to dwindle precipitously.

The good news is that the constitution provides ways for Congress and the Judiciary to reign in a power-hungry president. The bad news is those people are all scared of him.

I don't understand how some folks are unable to see that the illegal disappearing of people is a class issue. The wealthy and well-connected get due process. The rest of us don't. This is part of the oligarchy, not a distraction from it.

DOGE is a criminal conspiracy to defraud the people of the United States
Oh dear you’re going to want to read this. Looks like DOGErs were caught exfiltrating NLRB data, likely on unions, for private (seemingly Elony) use. This is must read. What we’ve all suspected. But now details. www.npr.org/2025/04/15/n...
A whistleblower's disclosure details how DOGE may have taken sensitive labor data
A whistleblower tells Congress and NPR that DOGE may have taken sensitive labor data and hid its tracks. "None of that ... information should ever leave the agency," said a former NLRB official.

Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.
