Who remembers being furious about this? Trump says 'I moved on her like a bitch...'

Why is it so hard to believe that he is hiding the Epstein files?

Mike Johnson is such a misogynist even Republican women are openly defying him now.

His attempt at damage control?

Go on TV with his wife (totally not his beard) & tell women their brains are inferior to men’s brains bc they “can’t compartmentalize.”

Brilliant!

What did the Nazis do with valuable items of Jewish people they deported or sent to concentration camps? They did the same thing that Nazi ICE rats are doing with the property of Hispanic people.

Yeah, a House member needs to send up that impeachment flag. This is illegal, immoral, dangerous behavior — that is also likely unconstitutional as well.

Trials. Prison. Everyone.

If you told me this was a psy-op to make me rethink my moral opposition to the death penalty, I would at least have to think hard about you being right.

I used to have to teach the NSS: What's in it, what it means, how it was produced.
In this administration, documents mean nothing. Our national policy is whatever stray voltage is crossing Donald Trump's brain pan at any given moment. The NSS and other such documents are meaningless.
The Trump administration has quietly released its National Security Strategy — apparently late on Thursday. Usually there's a rollout and fanfare for these things: www.whitehouse.gov/wp-content/u...

The fact that four hostile drones tried to hit Zelenskyy’s plane & it’s barely a blip in the news cycle should terrify everyone. We’ve been dragged so deep into the chaos era that an attempted strike on a world leader doesn’t even break through. When this becomes normal, the world is in real danger.

The new National Security Strategy is a propaganda document, designed to be widely read. It is also a performative suicide. Hard to think of another great power ever abdicating its influence so quickly and so publicly. It will be worth following the reactions around the world, not just in Europe.
Trump's national security strategy is out and some of the Europe sections are shocking. "...the growing influence of patriotic European parties indeed
gives cause for great optimism."

Putin's war in Ukraine shows where authoritarianism can lead: ~1.4 million casualties. An entire generation sacrificed for one man's imperialist delusions.

We must not let any president drag us into war without congressional approval.

"One of the most staggering things is that the Roberts Court has ruled for President Trump 90 percent of the time in shadow docket cases. Lower courts keep restraining the president but the Supreme Court is repeatedly saying that the president and his party are above the law"
The U.S. Supreme Court has cleared the way for Texas to use a gerrymandered congressional map in next year's midterm elections. @ariberman.bsky.social explains.

The most interesting part of this story isn’t that the pipe bomber is MAGA. That was blatantly obvious. What should interest folks is that the FBI and DoJ hid that fact from you, and still haven’t made a statement. This info is coming from sources on the condition of anonymity.

Five corporations control 90% of the US media market.

Airlines merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today.

Four giants control 80% of meat processing.

The evidence of corporate consolidation is everywhere.

It means more power for them and less freedom for you.
Netflix's $83 billion takeover of Warner Bros Discovery would mean more corporate consolidation.

Netflix, by far the #1 streamer, would take over HBO Max, the #3 streaming service.

This giant merger could violate antitrust law and hurt consumers.

According to a new study, members of Congressional leadership perform 47% better in stock market trades than their rank-and-file peers, thanks to access to nonpublic information.

Today would be a great day to ban ALL elected officials from trading stock, don't you think?
