I have more respect for the Iraqi journalist who threw a shoe at George W Bush than any of the cowards in the current White House press pool.

“I’d have no problem releasing the video”
“I didn’t say that, you said that. Fake news.”

The Supreme Court, Presidency, Senate and two party system are all quite anti-democratic institutions as presently constructed.
Our institutions are not only incapable of preventing tyranny—they’re currently enabling it.
When democracy returns, we need to reform our political system.

It is newsworthy that the president of the United States is increasingly verbally abusive of women reporters and he should be asked about it.

Tom Cotton would not even be in Congress, were it not for the huge defense contractors supporting him from the beginning and keeping him flush with cash.

I’m surprised more people aren’t talking about Don Jr receiving a massive loan for his startup from the Pentagon. I guess when there’s so much corruption some things fly under the radar?

Follow up: it doesn’t say it’s illegal to fire on incapacitated shipwrecked. It just says it’s illegal to fire on the shipwrecked. Where’d you get “incapacitated” and why are you such an asshole?
Q: "The Pentagon's Law of War manual…says 'Orders to fire upon the shipwrecked would be clearly illegal.' Given that, how was that follow up strike on the two survivors legal?"
Tom Cotton: "They were not incapacitated… They were sitting or standing on top of a capsized boat."

It is becoming increasingly obvious that the oligarchs, backed by the scum in the Kremlin and the White House, want to carve up Europe between the USA and Russia.

The calls from America this weekend to "abolish the EU" are for one simple reason: the EU is the only thing that can keep European nation-states from becoming Russian or American vassals.
The US has declared rhetorical war on the EU
The calls from America this weekend to destroy the EU are revealing. They hate the union because it's the only thing that can keep European countries from being Russian or American vassals.

Here’s what he’s missing:
We have a president calling immigrants “garbage” and affordability a hoax, a DOD secretary cosplaying war games with no accountability, a VP saying it’s “reasonable” to not want neighbors who speak another language, and a Speaker who believes women are inferior.
The GOP.

I just got a "Decomputing" talk accepted by a very tech-focused business conference (as a Keynote even) and a labor rights organization who wanted me to propose a talk instantly went for the "The Luddites were right" suggestion. Two things that a few months ago would not have been possible I think.

The most transparent administration in history is now hiding both the complete Epstein files and the complete video of the Sept. 2 boat strike from the American people, only releasing the parts of each that they want you to see while concealing the rest.

Okay but WHY are the Kennedy Center Honors not being given out at the Kennedy Center? Did they cancel and move it to the Oval because ticket sales were non-existent?
