Samuel Alito flew two flags used by insurrectionists.

Clarence Thomas' wife plotted to overturn the 2020 election.

Both justices refused to recuse themselves from SCOTUS cases related to the January 6th plot.

It's a stain on our nation that this has effectively been forgotten.

FIVE YEARS & he has not been held accountable for one of the most disgraceful events in this nation's history.
Trying to overturn a fair election in an attempted coup against his own government is the very definition of TREASON. We can never move forward until this is fully adjudicated. #ShameOnUS🇺🇸

To Denmark and Greenland: 100 Danish forces deployed to Desert Storm. They stood with us defending sovereignty and international law. Now I watch Stephen Miller mock you on TV while my government threatens to invade Greenland. I'm a veteran and I'm ashamed beyond words. I'm so sorry.

This story is terrific. A woman infiltrated a racist dating site, used chatbots to get info from horny incels, and then leaked it all.

What are the odds one of the accounts on WhiteDate belongs to a White House staffer?

A very long and important THREAD -

The real reason the US is invading Venezuela goes back to a deal Henry Kissinger made with Saudi Arabia in 1974.

And I'm going to explain why this is actually about the SURVIVAL of the US dollar itself.

Not drugs. Not terrorism. Not "democracy." 1/

This is very good, for reasons that may strike many as irritating but I think are important.

The admin is going to invoke a string of executive branch interpretations of law. It's useful to know what those are. This post describes w/out endorsing them or suggesting they make everything legal.

1/13 What to think about Trump’s Venezuela Operation?

So far it looks less like regime change and more like a hostile and illegal corporate takeover.

What does this mean for the world?

Everyone should know about this.

It is part of Trump's Venezuela invasion.

The real Trump plunder story is starting to emerge.

It's looking more likely that Trump's illegal invasion was not so much military excellence as bribes and betrayal by the VP and/or military.

Delta Force was let in, blew up a few things for show, and kidnapped Maduro.

“Weiss simply has no idea what it took to report this story, and even less about the value of what her reporter delivered. Ellison would not have installed someone who did.”

This is so good and informative. Must read for every newsroom (and j school prof)

And kudos to @samthielman.com on the edits
As it happens, I have experience with high-level government demands to stop an explosive, accurate story from running, and I also have experience with 60 Minutes spiking a story I was involved in, so I have thoughts about the travesty at CBS. If you want some journalism anecdotes, here are a lot:

Here's what everyone can do:

Cancel their Paramount+ subscriptions pronto until they change their behavior.

Turn off CBS altogether. Don't go to any Paramount made film.

It's not hard. And it won't inconvenience you a bit.

5. I have no respect for Donald Trump. He diminishes everything he touches. But focusing on him right now is like being bitten by your neighbor’s unleashed, unfenced rabid dog and focusing on the dog. If we don’t hold his enablers to account we’re going to keep getting bit.
